Hmmm, I don't know. Do Prince's videos warrant a top 25 video placing? Well it's about the music so I'll vote.

i gotta agree with consciouscontact. by the criteria they give, madonna has to be the winner, but i voted p anyway because i'd like to see him get a respectable number of votes.

in terms of music he'd top that list by far, but purely in terms of video... i'm not so sure.

I know exactly what you are saying, Prince fits the criteria for all of those things, so people better recognize, and I voted!!!

i voted... for madonna. bjork would have been my second pic. yes, prince is one of the most gifted musicians in history, but as far as his videos go... ehhh... yea... they're kinda embarrasing.

madonna's videos are genius for the most part, as are bjorks'

Why bother? prince is not a great video maker and never has been, and if you're honest, you'll agree he's only ever been satisfactory only.He certainly doesn't warrant a top 25 position.


(some are good though!)

Most of those other so-called 'artists' don't even fit the criteria. Justin Timberlake? Gimme a damn break!

Yes and that's every reason to vote for Prince right there. His videos haven't been the greatest but his influence is all over the place right now.

sorry, but if you're in a contest for video against the King of Pop...well, come on, it's MJ all the way. Sometimes it's cool to watch his videos just to see the differences in appearance!

It was Prince and not the king of pop who was the first african american to have a video aired on mtv. For that reason alone he should be in the top 25.

i don't think that is true. Epic records told MTV that if they didn't play MJ they would remove their entire roster of videos, which at the time was more than half of the videos airing. At that time, no black artists were being aired. Epic changed that in order to sell MJ records. Prince was added on very shortly afterwards. And even if, for the sake of argument, i'm wrong about that...it doesn't change the fact that MJ's videos are amazing. Without them, music video would be completely different.

I don't care I'm voting for Prince because he rocks!! I want nothing to do with that MJ loony toon charater. I feel the real MJ died along time ago. He really tainted his legacy. Thank God most of the news you hear about Prince is music related. MJ is a piece of crap!!

as 4 me, no matter who ya vote 4 we all know who'd get the vote...

forget about emptee-vee.

Beck MJ and NIN were good choices, but Prince is too cool, so he got my vote:)

Sorry, but Bjork wins this battle in a landslide. Her videos are ART.
