i really like the video, though i'm kinda "WTF?!?" about it...

what does the video have to do with the song title or the lyrics?
what's prince doing on a blimp jumbotron and why is Q-Tip the focus of the video?
ok, fine, Q-Tip is the focus of the video. why not let him lip synch his rap?

i think the video was executed beautifully - it's fun to look at and it's a cut above most prince videos - but conceptually, it's kind of a head-scratcher. is this the beginning of some serial adventure with Q-Tip and the Twilight/Matrix lady in DiscoJellyfish land? Do I need a bong to understand the plot here???

ah well. just look at the pretty colors and try not to think about it too much. you'll enjoy it.

To cut costs maybe they just looped the shot back and forth mirrored. smile

does anybody think the site will let you download after Sunday? And if so, do you think they want you to go to Target and purchase the bundle? Might be why it's $11.98... because the other cost was the $77.00... lol. I'm a fan, and I doubt that's the reason... but who knows, right?

A bong hit always went over big with a new Prince album & show back in '86...

This is his best video since TGRES. I love the look. I think P wants another VMA to add to his collection.

He wont get a VMA for that, unless he buys himself one.
Cheesy matrix rip off.

great song though.

I didn't say he would get one, I said he "wants another" one. There is the difference. wink

Ditto and I love the fact that it is to be continued showing there is more to the story. I just love the whole feeling LF, MpL, & Elixir gives me very Psychedelic.

Keep it coming P, looking so forward 2 2nite, last night Rocked

I love the quality of the video and the website visuals at the end. The story is weird though and I wonder what is "to be continued"?

Somebody has been watching Blade Runner, The Matrix and Sin City.

Q-Tip doesn't make a very compelling actor in the video and doesn't even lip-sync to his rap.

Don't see what the part two continuation of this video could be as it doesn't have any plot to it and there's no narrative structure to the song itself either.


I thought the same thing. I dont get it at all. confuse
