Greatest Romance Video Sux!

Okay... the song is good, and Prince does look cute in that vid.
But honestly, if it wasn't for his cute lil ass, I'd say it stinx...
Esoecially the Red/white part where he's suppose to be "dancing" (just jumpin and trippin round on the same spot, actually) disappointed me.

His outfits, make-up and stuff is cool too, but the VIDEO ITSELF!
Damn, and I really used to like that song... sad

I kinda disagree on this.

I think the video had some style, and was a bit more interesting visually then some of the low budget, "home movie" style of videos he'd done in the past.

I think some sequences like him sitting on the chair and letting the hanky fall to the floor were a bit cheesy though.

I like that it's so sexy and smooth some places, but the rest... eeew, I was really hoping for something better. It's the 2nd Prince video I've ever seen, after Diamonds and Pearls. And damn, I loved it! But this one... I expected so much more

I like the video especially in the end where the girls stomach is seen growning from her pregnacy and the part where he lets her hand go and she falls back, away from him there's a deep message in that whole video, I can only say that it's beautiful and the video goes with what he's been through and I think that's what he's expressing in a suttle way.
I'm just a junky for the sound.

Would you rather have seen a video that had the production values of the Come On promo? wink

I watched this video at a friend's house and was embarrassed. Even worse than the sickening song.
No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.

Sex is not love. Love is not sex. Putting words in other people's mouths will only get you elected.

Need more sleep than coke or methamphetamine.

This is probably one of his best videos (due to director Malik Sayeed). The cinematography is excellent!

Took the EXACT word outta my mouth nod this is a very spiritual video, how could somebody complain about this? Oh well, I guess the brotha neva wins with these fools anyway.

I just love his work so much, its a shame that he's only 4 "Ex-Factor" by L-Boogie and Prince's video. I know read the list of people he worked with tho.

Really? You must have seen a different version to me because I don't recall any male/male love scenes, maybe Mayte hadn't shaved that day.

I think who ever did'nt appreciate the message within the video needs to take a deeper look. Maybe your alittle young and your expecting Prince to be the way he was befor with his musical style, I don't see why you would say this video sucked, we all live and learn and grow from our experiences and with that you have to learn to be flexable. I'm not saying that you have to love everything that's thrown your way but you have to learn how to look at things from different angels and then make your dicision.
