I don't know if I'm reading the post about upcoming MVs wrong, but isn't it saying that they'll release a MV for Crystal Ball on the 16th? I'm still not at that stage of Prince-fandom where I know every bit of trivia like most of y'all, but Crystal Ball might just be my favorite song of all time. I looked it up in the Vault, and there's nothing about a MV. Is it just a mistake? I'm getting this info from the Estate website's news post.

Sorry to bother you on this, but could you let me know what I'm reading wrong about it? This is what I'm looking at, and it really does seem to say that there's a MV for Crystal Ball. The post here says otherwise, but surely someone on the estate website couldn't have made a mistake like this?

I see. I thought u were referring to the press release shared in this thread, that only mentions Interactive.

IDK where u got that screenshot from, but it's a obviously a typo. I've just crossreferenced various sources and the official press release, as shown on Billboard, Variety or the Star Tribune, doesn't mention any such MV.

When an information seems dubious, it's always best to crossreference the information and/or try to find the original source of the information.

I got it from the official estate website's article on it. Pretty amazing that they made a typo like that in that source, but it's my fault for being so quick to get excited over something. Oh well-- guess I'll just have to wait longer for that song to get some recognition! Thanks for snapping me out of it.

Well, pretty amazing indeed... Add to that that they're announcing release dates for videos that are already on the YT channel (Bart has a theory that could make sense if the delete the old vids and re-upload them, but I still suspect they didn't even realize the vids were already out there)...

.

This list also mention a MV for 3121 which isn't listed in the other articles, and I'm not aware of any such thing existing anyway. Probably another typo.

.

Sadly, the people managing the Estate at the moment are behaving like complete amateurs.

Here is the music video for "U Make My Sun Shine": https://m.youtube.com/wat...8z-fQbYHyE

Thank you Latin!

So....where r the new videos?

CoolMF said:

Thanks. Never knew that there's a video for "Endorphinmachine".

.

Seriously, WTF is it with you lot? This video has been available on the Interactive CD-ROM game since the mid-1990s. What kind of wack-ass fan doesn't buy everything? (Oh, and this gme was sold for peanuts mere years later, so none of that "it was too expensive" BS.)

I think I got mine, mint in package, for $1.25.

I do have a perfect video version on the released CD-Single.

The youtube video is not in a good quality

"Salma heard the song and came up with the original concept," Prince said in a statement when the video was released. "Salma is the most thoughtful, attentive director I have ever worked with. An absolute joy."

I still doubt that she REALLY was the director of the video. It looks more like the work of Sanaa Hamri, but then prince gave Salma credit because he adored her.

Latin said:

"The video stars Prince and the actress Mia Maestro, who was a close friend of Hayek’s and her co-star in the 2002 movie Frida. As Hayek would remember years later, it was really only because of Prince’s encouragement that she ever dreamed of directing a music video. “He was so, so supportive of me. He was always telling me that I should go back to directing, because I had done one little thing for television. And then one day, he said, ‘Okay, today’s the day. You have to do this song for me,’” she told W Magazine. “We had a great time; we didn’t really feel like we were working.”"

Yeah, that's the official narrative. I know, but I still doubt it.
