WYWTMSB, Sexuality, and Automatic were played on BET quite often back in the day. LPWM was slated to be the last video for 1999 however, I think Prince and WB had already felt they squeezed the album dry and were preparing to shoot Purple Rain. The video is cool but someone went way too crazy with the smoke machine. I mean there is smoke EVERYWHERE, which is probably one of the other reasons why it wasn't released. __________________________________________________

saw that DVD at Meijer about 5 years ago. think my roommate bought it. there were a lot of videos on there, even some of the D&P maxi-single videos.
what was that about anyway? half of them had writing across the bottom for a video request line as though they were taped straight off of some TV show. bootleg that somehow made its way into legit stores? | |

All of the above...except Let's Pretend We're Married were aired, but on BET's Video Vibrations. It was a show that had a 'featured artist of the day' and it use to air after Video Soul. | |

Saw it for the first time like 5 years ago and it was (and still is imo) a revelation. I love that 1999 stage set and era/look. Prince is very very pretty in this video lol. | |
