A reverse of trends, an original video accompanied by one of his most lame melodies ever.

Give me a crap video and original sounding song anyday!

You have enough melodic songs. Give the people a good video so Prince can make some money! razz

Best Prince video ever. Name ones that's better. Made me hear the song in a whole new way. That's the mark of a great video.


I'm going to back this comment. Might be going out on a limb, but as far as commercial single videos go, I've never seen anything quite as meaningful, powerful, artistic and unique from him. Keisha Castle-Hughes was a great touch, too! She really works for this piece...

I thought it was FANTASTIC. I'm just really pleasantly surprised. Made my day.

By the way, I know a lot of you hate the track, but I've been the one over here juming up and down and screaming that CINNAMON GIRL is THE SONG on Musicology with the MOST crossover potential for airplay and chart success. I stand behind that, even more now that I've seen the vid.

PLEASE, COLUMBIA! MOTHER OF GOD!!!!! DO SOMETHING WITH THIS GREAT VIDEO AND ACCESSIBLE AND TOPICAL SONG!!!!

I agree that it is a decent video, but not that good. There are a few of his videos that are better....I think the one for I Wish U Heaven is better, but maybe that's just me. Of course all the performance videos are better, but I'm not counting those of course.

the song is great! Video is too!! At first it didn't seem too original from a few older songs he's done, but after much listen to it - now I can't stop singing it! Prince has come out of the box on this video - love it!! Who did it?

Nice video. Not great, but then again I've never found videos to be one of P's strong points. I liked seeing Keisha Castle-Hughes in it though.

This song is not as bad as some of you are making it out to be , . I would rather listen to it than most of what's being played on the radio today. Oh and by the way this video is awesome.
