Partyman: the video!

One of his best. Plus it is funny too.

U even get to c the band (a hybrid of revolution and NPG) in costume, and candy dulfer!

This was a worthy follow up to the equally cooky "batdance" video. Great big lavish colours and budget. Whole gang r having so much fun it seems.....

Jill Jones looking all fine....good t c her in the video (as opposed to say Ingrid Chavez or someone?)

Odd that the music video is infact the extended 12" version of the song. Which means u get a bizarre 7 or 8 minute video. With such great moments as when Jill says to prince "nobody can beat batman" and the bit where Prince set this girls hair on fire. "look what u done to my hair" and Prince just laughs.....very strange.....

"it ain't over yet"! biggrin

Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!

from what I remember the girl with the burnt hair calls prince a "turd"... probably my favorite prince video. Directed by Albert Magnoli, I think.

she actually calls him a "bastard" but it was edited out.

You can hear the unedited version on the 12inch Partyman.

I think she calls him a bastard and they blank it out. U can still catch the ending hence why it sounds like turd.

This video was great but I sensed a hint of misogeny in Prince. I just got a werid feeling that deep down he resented women's power in that video. But I am probably over analyzing again. Ignore me! biggrin

He was meant to be the joker....concept was pulling pranks on people. It was all an act.....does prince usually set womens hair on fire and laugh at them?

Yeah it said to be continued...but it never was. biggrin It is one of his best definitely. I like it better than Batdance. Though I am not particularly a fan of the song.

On the video it sounds like she called him a "Little turd."
Goodnight, sweet Prince.

Prince as The Joker kills everyone by the end of the video because he poisoned the wine (with liquid smylex joker venom) that every one drinks. Killer Clown.
Goodnight, sweet Prince.

It's kind of cute, but why do his videos tend to look like they were shot for fifty dollars or less.
