Prince has many music videos that are but which does everyone consider the best. I think Money Dont Matter. The one with the man talking at the beginning. The video captured what life in America was like at that time.

So what do you think is his best video

Dirty Mind and it was cool how Andre stole the mic from Prince. Or was it Uptown? Since they both produced on the same stage.

hard to choose

It was Uptown.

"Batdance" is a pretty awesome video to go along with an awesome song...

"When Doves Cry" is awesome for the first half and then it goes into some weird acid-trip-like effects, I have no idea why...

And I used to think that "Girls and Boys" was a pretty cool video as well (or at least up until the second time I saw it). I began to notice how much of a guy Wendy was starting to look like and I wondered why Bobby Z. suddenly looked like an old-Harvey Fierstein. At least the song was awesome...

I'm partial to Automatic, Raspberry Beret, Kiss, & Violet the Organ Grinder (although there are several I haven't seen...)

Raspberry Beret is pretty madd.
I like Scandolous just cause of the slow dance moves he does
My Name Is Prince is pretty cool.....i dunno if the 1 i have the proper film clip but Kirsty Alley gets pushed over at the start which is funny, and prince wid the gun mic and the golden veil is pretty cool!
But i dunno the man has soooo many film clips its hard 2 choose!

Yeah Raspberry Beret Was Pretty Cool

-Man I got more sense than to jump on a couch! Yeah I remember jumping on his couch

Gett Off
The Greatest Romance Ever $old
Te Amo Corazon
Batdance
Partyman
I Wish U Heaven
Face Down

are his better ones. most of his video's are just
him and the band performing a song live on one of
the paisley park sound stages, looking dead cheep

ai, FACE DOWN wasn't very good IMHO... it looked cheap...

GETT OFF and Cream was really cool! I loved those two videos when they came out, actually I loved that era the "D&P"-era.

I remember Somebody's Somebody looking rather classy as well. But it's been quite sometime since I've seen it.

I forgot that one...I add that one to my list too.

Gangster Glam! Oh boy it looks like they were all having fun that day. And the girl was such a cutie in the video. She definatly had that Vanity/Apollonia look. I wish I was her and had Prince's arms all over me.

yeah but that's ok. it doesn't have to look like a mega production
to be cool. i liked the way he goofed with his own image in that 1

Kiss is the best video hands down, with Anotherlover coming in at second.

It's all about "Bet'cha By Golly Wow." The colors are just so vibrant.

Music videos have never been his strong point. I think his only real "classic" video is Kiss. Other than that, I like When Doves Cry and Money Don't Matter 2 Night.

Kiss is downright iconic.

Let's Go Crazy to me captures that classic Prince excitement the best.

Little Red Corvette was the first to make me take notice.

Prince's videos suck, I'm sorry!

Alphabet St
Batdance
Sexy MF
I wish U heaven

but the winner goes to...


AUTOMATIC that's Prince as unabashed as he gets. It almost feels like a home bootleg or something.

I think Thieves in the Temple
Kiss
Partyman
too many .....

I would say:

When Doves Cry
Money Don't Matter 2Night
Raspberry Beret

AUTOMATIC

Someone said that videos arent his stong point. Keep in mind it really comes down to the director. But then again this is Prince and he most likely did direct most of then
