I have never seen I hate U. Wow. But for me it would either be Violet the Organ Grinder or Thieves in the Temple long version. | |

My point of view as a filmmaker/videomaker etc. I say "When Doves Cry" is hands down his best video, a pure honest fusion of song and image, probably the video that defined the kaleidoscope style of MTV, a sad song about disfuntional family illustrated as a psychedelic and spiritual experience. Best scene: The complete band of musicians break their spot for a dance rutine looking at the camera while Prince laydown in a warm bathtub with his white guitar inside a church. Holly funk! Runner up's: "Kiss", nothing beats Lisa biting her lips while the man himself dance around with a semi nude girl. If David Bowie was black he will probably have done this video. Too funky! "Raspberry Beret", beautifull storytelling made with animation vintage style, one of the few Prince videos that still take you to another place in another time, the custom design is beyond words and the extras/models/protegees bring on a special atmosphere of the power of the Prince universe back in 1985, love the photo and the simplicity of the coreography. "U got the look", if I have a son one day and he asked me about my generation music I would play him this vid, Prince playing mind and sexual games with Cat and Sheena Easton, around man and women with blantantly glam makeup and super cool extravagant clothing, plus a kick ass jazzy, funky band. Love it! "Get Off", raw and playfull at the same time, Diamond and Pearl have great chemistry with the man, and Prince's rare sharing of the spotlight with the rappers and dancers of the NPG make this video a little bit more grounded and cool. Probably his last great video. "Little Red Corvette", the perfect pop song with Prince real stage performance anthics, proove that sometimes less is better. "Batdance", a saturated bizarre experience, the best of the 80's Kitsch. Even cooler in today's retro 80's trend and hipster scene. Did you say Lisa biting her lip in the Kiss video? (For shame) I would still like 2 know who the dancer is... The dancers Kat I was told | |

[Edited 2/21/09 12:36pm] I tend to agree, although some of the stuff on the Gett Off long form video is pretty out there. And I kind of like "Come On" for the "Candid Camera" bookends where Prince disguises himself as an old man and hits on pretty girls: "I got the butter for your muffin. I'm just too old to hold the knife". At least it was something different than we usually see from him. Prince videos, whatever their merits, largely come across to me as insular, ego-stroking affairs devoid of story or character. But since he's directed and conceived 99% of them, I guess that shouldn't come as a surprise. | |

Kiss is my favorite. He's so damn sexy in it and one of my all-time favorite songs.
In the last ten years, however, my favorite is Black Sweat. "Just like the sun, the Rainbow Children rise."
