I've seen the Cinnamon Girl video a week ago and I really
don't understand why He made such a great vid 4 such a poor song!!!
It reminds me about the fact that this isn't the first time I wonder
why He has chosen this or that song 2B a single or video.
Anyway;here R my 5fav videos-where the vid'fits'the song-and
my'worst of'Prince videos top5.
Which R yours

1.Get Off
2.Kiss
3.Cream (long version)
4.Thieves in the temple
5.Musicology

worst 3

1.Cinnamon Girl(great vid;poor song)
2.Paisley Park (poor vid;good song with great lyrics)
3.Alphabet Street (bad vid;great song!)
4.The greatest Romance...(BEAUTIFUL vid; :hmm:song)
5.Sexuality

Taste in music and videos vary from one another. what you think sucks could be considered a masterpiece for others.
That is the answer to your question.

To give prince.orgers something to write about. He knows it pisses us off. Prince is sick!

"Cinnamon Girl" is my favorite song on the album. It was the first to catch my ear when I bought the album.

Basically. Once again Prince has ruined a good thing with poor selection for singles.

Heavenly! I could not have said it any better

he makes good videos for shit songs in hopes that it'll make u like the song more..duh!!!

for instance i never cared 4 raspberry beret...but then i saw the video so now i like the song more...but then somtimes this can have the opposite effect...for instance i used to love the song cream...then i saw the video..now i don't care for cream too much.

Paisley4u said:

cinnamon girl is a horrible song....same category as musicology and life o the party...those are definately the bottom 3 on the cd

Why bother posting when this thread sucks?

Everyone has different opinions. Obviously, Prince doesn't think the song sucks and a lot of people don't think it sucks either. If videos weren't made for sucky songs only 1/4 of the videos on TV would get made.

Unfortunately, this is true, some of Prince's weakest tracks off any particular album are just formatted better for single release. Cinammon Girl is on of the faster tracks on the album and probably fits a video format better than the superior songs on the cd. The controversy will keep his name in the papers for a second and the timing is impeccable.
