 What, you want me to lie and say I thought it was spectacular? It was a descent video. Better than many, but not the best. "You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." "

I think this is a very great vid. As far as Prince Vids this one is up there with the best. We have had this conversation before and we are pretty much in agreement that Prince has made some stinker ass videos God bless him! Anyway I like this one and was impressed. Way to go Prince!! Peace THE CARDINAL HAS SPOKEN!!! | |

2freaky4church1 said: I will bet you a million dollars this video will never be shown on American television. Too controversial. Bushland will not let the truth in.
Will be another big flop for Prince. It is strange to see him defend Muslims. I don't see the video as "defending Muslims". It's about keeping your eyes open and not swallowing what the Government and the media is trying to shovel down your throat. And it's about not passing judgement on people in a "knee jerk" fashion. (That's the Readers' Digest summary of the video. Not intended to be an indepth summary as so much is left to interpretation.) I like the video alot. I'm firmly planted in denial |

the video is not bad, finally an artistic one.
but the story and the message is too easy, talkin' about terrorism and bombing in such times is just a way to have airplay and make people talk about u. and please, wipe that dirt from your face, prince!! POPE | |

This may be his BEST video since Raspberry Beret.... Yep I think so.  "So strange that no one stayed at the end of the Parade..." - Wendy & Lisa's "Song About" on their 1987 self-titled album.

It's funny that you should mention this video by Dire Straits. When I watched  video I thought about Dire Straits b/c their video was about war and was animated. | |

Frank Zappa is a musical genious, but I am amazed at how he always had something very stupid to say, it is incredible. |

Frank Zappa - "A mind is like a parachute. It doesnt work if it's not open." I've yet to hear/read anything as smart, or even close in the viscinity of intelligence or truth, as this by some naive religious nut or bible thumper... Neversin. O(+>NIИ<+)O

It sure is one of the most well ellaborate and intelligents quotes I ever saw. Let me try one fo my own. "A party is like a parachute, noo need for it if you´re not high" ohhhh now I am intelligent too. 
These parachute analogy is bullshit man, any kid could come up with that. I think Zappa is a intelligent man and he said lots of intelligent things, but i saw tons of idiot things that he said too. It seems he said some things about "serious" just for the sake of being funny |

Mac Daddy is a Black English Vernacular term used as early as the 30s and 40s, in my mother's generation, as well as his father's generation. He did NOT invent that. Black men who wore zoot suits back in the Cotton Club era were even referred to as "Macks" or "Cat Daddies". Please don't give him any credit where it is not due. He has done enough of that on his own, over the years....

BYRON has the best interpretation of the video. And it sort of reminds me of Raspberry Beret meets AHA becomes a totally innovative video.
Kudos. | |

Ever heard of The Furious Five and Sugarhill Gang's "Showdown"?? That was from 1980/1981... He is the first to use such words as Mac Daddy (Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic, which was originally recorded around 1987-88)
Obviously you've never heard of movies like "Superfly", "The Mack" or "Coffy" before... He is the first to premier a clear cassette case with Around the World In A Day
Yeah sure, that's why I have a clear cassette case from 1980 of Joy Division's "Closer" album... Ummm...shall I go on?
Better not, you'll look even more like an ass... Neversin. O(+>NIИ<+)O

I thought I should thank you Handzclapp. Thanks for the other link because the AOL wasn't playing. Nice video and a great message. I still wish he would make a video for A Million Days, but since musicology has been out for 7 months now, he's probably moving on to newer things. Oh well, I guess I can wish. | |
