America video

I just love this video. You can find it on YouTube or the Prince page of VH1.com. It's just a live performance of the song, but what a performance! He was just the best at that time. I love all the James Bwown-influenced moments. I love that hat and overcoat (wanted one bad at the time). It was a great moment in a great career. Prince has never been the greatest in the arena of videos, but nobody could compete on a stage and that shows in the America video.

I actually saw that video in its entirety for the first time last year. Great video. I love watching him play the drums.

It was the America video (and Girls & Boys) that hooked me on Prince when I was a kid, my sister had them all on video tape, and I would just play these two over and over. smile

I wish that full-length (with drum solo) would be officially released on ANY DVD (like "I Would Die 4 U/Baby I'm A Star" on PR 20th) along with Sheila E's "Live Romance 1600". I DARE YOU to deny the heat of "A Love Bizarre" when P & crew took over the stage. I DARE YOU, i say!

Powerful ass performance. The guitar solos. When Prince went to the drums it was over, I was amazed, on how talented he is.
Some people think I'm kinda cute
But that don't compute when it comes 2 Y-O-U.

I agree. As an earlier poster wrote, the pants he wore in that video were great.
