Princes best Music Video... We all know Prince never really took full advantage of the great marketing tool that is the music video, but he did have some solid ones...
Which is his best? | |

I like the Batman era videos,especially the extended Partyman version.
Little Red Corvette is good too. 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!!

Probably "Partyman" -- one of my least fav songs on the album, but what a fun video! "Batdance" is a close second, especially with the guitar solo.
Besides those, "Let's Pretend We're Married" is one of my personal guilty pleasures. Love the style, Prince's moves, how much fun he's having, etc. What do you like, Jack? [Edited 10/17/06 1:32am] | |

Yeah, videos not his strong suit...Partyman is probably best, though I also like Kiss, Raspberry Beret and Gett Off! The 1999 era ones are sexy coz of Jill Jones, though objectively speaking nothing special. |

He put some real effort in the videos for Batman album, Diamonds and Pearls and Symbol. Remember, he released special vhs with numerious videos for D&P and Symbol. However, I always kinda like Kiss and it's twin brother, Alphabet street a lot! Simple but effective... | |

[Edited 10/17/06 1:32am] Does "Nasty Girl" by Vanity 6 count? "Lets pretend were married" is one of my all time favorite tracks, but all those 1999 videos look the same. "Money dont matter 2night" is probably my all time favorite Prince Vid. [Edited 10/17/06 12:13pm] | |

I loved the Thieves In the Temple remix video. The imagery was just hot. P, Robin and that other sista were so funky. The concept was different with the film playing on the screen and the lyrics scrolling across as the three of them danced. That video was always one of my favs. perfection is a fallacy of the imagination... | |

Agreed! I also like Money don't matter, the Spike Lee version. I really like all the videos 1988-1992 [Edited 10/17/06 14:24pm] 'A pillow covered in all our tears' | |

I've never seen it before. What's it like? The bulk of it is Prince disguised as an old man hanging around a park kickin' pigeons and being just goofy in general.   " | |

My all time favorite song AND video from P is definately "Controversy". Hands down. The mock church setup with the stain glass windows and the two huge hovering angels on each side of the stage is off the fucking hook. To me, that's the Prince that I know. Other videos that I dig by him:
Automatic (with J.J. and Lisa) 1999 (same reason; Jill and Lisa look so damn good) Let's Pretend We're Married When Doves Cry (excellent) Glam Slam (the scarf covering his eyes is brilliant) SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz. Especially when he talks about Hendrix."

Yeah, i agree about "partyman" and "batdance". I love the vibe of "7" aswell. I gotta throw in the extended "thieves i the temple" though [Edited 10/17/06 16:13pm] | |
