I´ve just seen it on MTV Germany. I think it´s a bit confusing, but it´s an okay video. Black Sweat was way better though.

Prince is wearing nearly the same hairdo as in the Get Off-Video. There is a storyline and material of him performing the song with band (three background-singers includig Tamar, Mr. Hayes on Keyboards and a female drummer (not Sheila E) that I didn´t recognize). The storyline shows a beautiful blonde girl (who is that?) waiting for Prince at home. At first she´s in bed, then she packs her suitcase and leaves. At the same time, we see Prince working in the studio. At the end, Prince leaves the studio and get´s in a car...



I wanna see this video NOW!

It's really not THAT special. The videos for Black Sweat and Te Amo Corazon had much more class. It's an okay video, but nothing more. I can understand your frustration and hope that you'll see it soon, I'm sure that it gets aired everywhere very soon.

Just saw it. Pretty non-existent directing and doesn't have much energy to be honest, but could be worse.

I've not seen the video, but if that's the storyline, it surely is going to lead to many believing it is about Mani being fed up with Prince being in the studio and peforming all the time?!

HE BETTER HURRY AND PROMOTE IN THE U.S. AND OF COURSE RELEASE THOSE DAMN TOUR DATES BEFORE WE ALL GET BORED AND START PLAYING "OFF THE WALL" AGAIN!

LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL

I'M LOOKING 4WARD 2 SEEIN THE NEW VIDEO - BUT I WISH HE WOULD RELEASE A DVD OF ALL THE VIDEOS FOR US INSTEAD OF SITTING AT OUR COMPUTERS WATCHING THEM!

ALSO, IF YOU ARE READING THESE PRINCE. RELEASE A CLUB MIX OF "LOVE". THAT SONG IS GETTING RAVE REVIEWS IN GAY CHICAGO MAGAZINE (THE ALBUM WAS GIVEN 4 OUT OF 4 STARS) AND PEOPLE I HAVE TALKED TO IN MILWAUKEE AND L.A. THAT SONG WOULD BE THE SH** FOR THE DANCE FLOOR, NOT TO MENTION THE SUMMER CRUISING SONG TOO.

GOOD LUCK AGAIN & GETCH YO ASS ON THE STAGE !!! WE LOVE IT. biggrin

i think that universal germany is pushing the 3121 cd a little bit more than in the rest of the world. i checked the chartpositions today and 3121 is still no. 5 in the german top 100. after falling down to 14 last week it came back. i saw a lot of in-shop promotion too... maybe thats the reason for the faster premiere of the video...

That's not true. I don't know to which chart you are referring, but it's surely not the official german album chart. 3121 dropped this week from 14 to 24.

That's probably their own chart system. WOM has also it's own selling charts. But that's not the official chart from media control. I already gave you a link to the 'real' charts, you can trust me on this. And #24 ist still a very good position, especially without a hit single yet.

More like the doo-wrap he was wearing, I would believe, for the Fury Saturday Night Live performance. Many members are saying the "look" of the video has the similar "look" of the SNL performance.

I don't think Prince has gone back to the typhoon hairdoo. He'd need to grow his hair. It's been short since early 2002.

Yeah, but those were only okay songs. This one's a hit...I hope.

I was suprised to see the hair wrap from SNL and really thought is was cool to see him wear it again. Haven't seen it since 91' and I like that look, kinda funky again. Especially when he wore it on the Arsenio Hall show and sang Cream. That was an awesome performance. And he was making all the face smirks and playing with the audience like he knew how bad he was.

The red suit, the hair wrap....it's all good with me. Let's see some more funky clothes Prince.

I just wish the video (I have not seen yet), could have been a bigger hit. I like the song Fury. I think Black Sweat is ok, but not great. The only thing I really like about it was his funny smirk he gave when the girl screamed..lol.

You know the boy is funny, I would like to see more of that come out with the funk cool

from a dude ... who feels like he is "constantly " selling Prince to my straight friends/aquantances .... well .... the "doo-wrap " to all of them seems very feminine ! lol

I wanna see it too... But I don't think it's not fair... just unfortunate for people not in Germany....

BTW - German isn't too different from English... I kind of understand things [on the websites].

there were these flame effect photo's of the same flames they had
on the SNL performance.

my guess is, it will be the same stage and same dancer that we've
seen in the Black Sweat video. with some flames and prince with a
guitar

but heck, prince with a guitar is always drool so what do i care

smile


as long as it's not a re-do of the paisley park video, i'll be happy. nod


Watch it be the SNL performance lol

Whew. Thank the lord it's only the 'do-rag, not the 'do itself. I was *not* diggin the typhoon and I was also skeptical of how long his hair could really be since SNL in February. I don't like the typhoon.
The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

I don't believe that they've really shown it in Germany. I think the Germans are trying to pull a fast one on us. They are pulling our legs. Pretty good one, you Germans.
