I just watched this video again on www.chelsearodgers.com. I'm positive it's been re-edited or 'tweaked' since I last watched it 2/3 weeks ago. It seems to flow so much better, Prince looks much more lively and involved and it looks great. I think you see much more of the band than before too.

I really enjoyed watching it again.... reminds me of the summer....

What do you think? Or am I going a bit crazy.....



BTW Just in case I haven't mentioned it enough times... hearing Chelsea Rodgers at the Aftershow on 6 September was INCREDIBLE - sounds amazing live

I also think it has been re-edited, looks so much better than before

I had a look and it hasn't changed(compared it to the one from other week and the same...)

It should be re-edited out of existence.

Umm, yeah, he's really dancing his socks off his time... err.

Seems like you see more of the clothing line, IMHO.

it's such an odd vid. if it has been altered, its very subtle.
i barely remember watching it first time round...

I can't see any change. He's still lip synching.

& miming with guitar?

yeah

it has changed a bit. I noticed they shot more of the band and less of prince in the begging

I really think this is one of the freshest videos Prince has released in a LONG time.

It defintetly was re-edited, I am impressed by this version, very nicely done. I was laughing at parts of this version because it shows Prince the sly fox that he is, his facial expression give him away he likes the ladies....My favorite of this video, are the shots of the band, it was nice to see the horns, the drummer,now that's a band.....

it rules.

Really can't see it. And if it is edited why oh why .... maybe because of all the naging in the beginning perhaps? Ah, come on, nobody naged, right?

But me, I'm still waiting for the "somewhere here on earth" clip.

Looks better than ever,2 me.

Nagging? Hmmm that's one way to put it!!

I can't understand why people have a problem with this video. It's a great tune! It's supposed to be a bit of fun, it was a surprise at the show, and something a bit different for Prince and everyone involved! I say, LIGHTEN UP everyone!!

CJanssen said:

Maybe after all the 'nagging' about Chelsea Rodgers - he's gone off putting out another video - I wouldn't blame him!

Its been tweaked a little from what I see. They add some more black and white stills of Chelsea, a few more band shots, and they added a vignette to the video.

-Tine

duh, it's just proof that Prince/whoever listens to our feedback. alot of people (including me) complained.

Yeah...it's been re-done a little.

Originally Prince just sat there while the singing went on in the background (which seemed odd).

Now he has the mic to his mouth from the get-go.

Better.

this video has been edited, not subtly & not well ... the images are edited so rapidly, it feels all out of sync.

Indeed, lighten up. Nowadays it just seems that it doesn't matter what P. does or says, there is always critique.
It's a normal video and I am just happy to see any video since they don't play his music or videoclips here the past 10 years. What a boycot.

And wait... how long will it take to hear the same ones saying that he made crap the last 10 years, that's why it doesn't get aired? Todays music is mostly crap so it surely would have to be aired every day!

ummm yes if u noticed its been re edited wit more chelsea in it and less of the other models

Just watched it again but I can't tell what the difference is. Still looks good though.





...Maybe it's the power of suggestion but, I think it seems smoother now than before?





I guess?

the edit seems the same to me.

Nah...the first thing that struck me was that in the new version he has the mic to his mouth from the beginning.

Anyone know if there's a link to the "old" version floating around?

he doesn't have the mic to his mouth in the first three shots of him so far! (I'm watching...)
