Is there a misic video shot for Hot Summer ?

We know that Prince shot a lot of unreleased videos, even for non-album singles.

Since Hot Summer was " Released" As a "single", does someone know if a video was shot for this crap? biggrin

It would be very cool for the promotion of W2A if there were videos.

Even if that exists, sadly I think they won't use it.

Universal didn't use the many videos existing ( including the still unreleased Extralovable), to promote HNR2.

WB didn't do anything to promote SOTT SDE, not even a cheap lyric video inspired from the eponym single!

I hope not, the song blows gibbon cocks.

Check The Record sounds like a better fit.

Bullshit. No self-respecting gibbon would allow its cock to be blown by Hot Summer.

I'm not sure it would be very cool promo since it's not the best song. And may well blow gibbons cock

.

If they really wanted a promo video they could've used Shelby and co to do their bits on the title track, edited in news footage (like the Baltimore vid) and images/footage of P from the W2A tour

Decent idea but a bit too obvious and on-the-nose perhaps. They should just play it over one of those P and Carmen Electra sex tapes they found in the Vault, that’d get some publicity. Would be a nice bit of irony with the sex tape line too. Maybe CGI the top of Prince’s cock singing the chorus. But, of course, they won’t do it.

Actually, would be best to CGI Carmen’s vagina singing the chorus. People aren’t ready for a singing penis.

I was on board until you brought Prince's cock into it.

Great shout for Carmen though. After all she was the SCARIEST FEMALE ON THE PLANET at one point

It s not the best song on what... W2A?!
How do you know ?
You listened to the other songs?
Who cares, if it s the only video existing from that album ?

You prefer no video at all?
Because, obviously, if theres one video existing, it s only from Hot Summer.

And, obviously, Sony/ the estate have no intention to invest one dollar even in a lyric music video.

I quite like Hot Summer but it seems it's roundly hated on this site. It's almost hated as much as Purple and Gold.

It's a catchy summery pop song.

What don't people like about it?

Is there anyone else who likes it or maybe even loves it?

I like it smile I don't love it but I like it and it's just a fun pop song.

But I'm also the kind of frigate who orders a hot cocoa in a bar full of hipster gay dudes drinking gin.

I just don't care. I like what I like.

There was like 50 songs on SOTT SDE. So they could pick 6 or 7 songs, there would still be 43 unheard.

There is only 12 songs on W2A.
They can't throw in half of the songs before release.

I think there will only one other unheard song promoted before the actual release of the album.

In the meantime, I hope they do something for a decent music video for the "single" W2A.
If they go at full speed, they could capitalize to death on the BLM movement and get exposition for a music video.

i would say the same, but promo is a singles market right now. i've seen plenty of releases in the past few years give up half the album before it's released, and i wouldn't be surprised if they're sort of trying to treat this like that... also those singles could be something like hot summer or same page where we have them but most people probably haven't heard it unless you're a hardcore fan.

I've listened to the songs that are already out, and the snippets, and IMO Hot Summer is the weakest

You are able to judge a song on a 5 second snippet?
Wow, you re a genius.

Yes, I can.

But if you think Hot Summer is better than W2A, Same Page, Check The Record and Born 2 Die (albiet snippets) that's fine.

And you can probably add When She Comes and 1000 Light Years From Here to the list as well as we've heard them in some form.

I never said Hot Summer was better than W2A.
I just asked if someone knew there was a music video shot for this track.

I'm ready for a singing penis, I'm European.

I certainly don't want to hear Carmen's vagina sing. wink

Hot Summer is low and below ''The Wedding Feast.''

By the way, Prince didn't like to make videos he once said.

Most of his video's are stage video's anyway.

Prince's video's are mostly boring (to me).

Yes, but we know he shot a lot of music videos, fotlr his intermet singles.
We also know some of them have never been released, such as Extralovable.

It's decent and I like it smile Unfortunately it might be the weakest track on W2A and I think it's the type of song that fits best as a b-side.

It's a great pop song, I enjoyed it when I first heard it and I still like it now. There's nothing wrong with it, IMO.
