Wait... SOOO confused about Betcha By Golly vid

Ok. The video was shot during the first week of November, which was about 1.5 weeks after the baby's death. Mayte and Prince are basically seen finally coming together in a hospital room and hugging, Mayte looking all happy and Prince looking up into the heavens with a smile on his face. Nothing else really happens in the video. I mean, what the fuck? It must have been quite painful to shoot it after all that.

I got some ideas:

First of all, you might get a better a response if your name wasn't "CuntOMatic".

Secondly, study this diagram:

Music videos aren't the same as real life. Anyway I seem to recall that the video was shot when Mayte was still expecting.

Well, duh. But since Prince directed it, I assumed that it might have some bearing on reality. Isn't art often like that? *eye roll*

Anyhow, several sites I have seen claimed that the video was shot the first week of November. The baby died October 26th or so, if I remember correctly.

Someone tried to stir up the same bit of controversy with the same exact question not too long ago. Funny how the video was completed before it was even shot.

What do you mean? How could it have been completed before being shot?
