The beautiful experience

I do not like it much, but u seen Mayte's choreography in "Acknowledge me" and "pheromone"? God damn it's good stuff.....she is such a good dancer and those 2 vids r actually very good.


"race" segment is good too

whats ur fav bit from the show? U liked Mayte's dancing.....I just forgot how good she was!

Y is "gold" not included? had it not been recorded yet?

I remember thinking it was all just the same lame Prince kitsch
videos sewn together by a paperthin plot draped with some sexy
chicks and sexual innuendo.

Nona Gaye does some toothachingly bad over acting in the segues
between the songs. What is she supposed to be, a fucking mental
patient??

Most of the video's were horrible. Especially the "video" they
had for "Come" almost spoiled the song for me completely.

The only bit I really liked was the footage of Prince and Mayte
with the flower during the "Race" video. That actually reminded
me of some John Lennon Yoko Ono stuff. It was shot very nicely.

Probably not even meant as such, but it was a highlight of the
movie.

The music, as always is top notch, brilliant tunes sprawling with
fresh and new ideas.

But the visuals are just real real bad.

After having watched this, as well as the Love4OneAnother special
I'm still amazed that he managed to pull off such a stylish video
for "Dolphin" amids that huge heap of crap he filmed at the time.

I mean, "Loose" was a rather ok vid but just his costume made him
look like such a fruitcake again. Totally NOT in harmony with the
song.

Ehm, but I still enjoyed watching it biggrin

I think those songs you mentioned sound much better in the live shots that were taken which were used for this film... these versions of Now, Days Of Wild,and Shh.. sound so much better that the studio versions on the Gold Experience, which came out later pale in comparison.Makes me reminisce about the old NPG biggrin
Just imagine if he had used Space and I Hate U for it...or Strays Of The World.They would have fit in perfectly. And I prefer the album version of Come over the cold version that´s used in this film, just can´t stand the sucking sounds.
