I fucking love this video. He looks great in that suit and hat, and he pulls off some nice little moves near the end of the video.

I know it's not saying much considering his standard video quality, but this has to be one of his best.




I didn't even mention his face appearing in the smoke at the beginning... spooky!! wink

You described Lisa's sexy nonchalance perfectly, Sassy...she's on some sort of smack high.

God damn I love that girl.

It's funny to watch Bobby Z. He has no co-ordination at all. Watch closely and you see him start to move before everyone else, but stops himself

I remember falling in love with Wendy in the split screen right before the guitar solo when she mimes the "ooh".

I just noticed that like last year...weird huh?
Makes me wonder what else we've missed...
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

The other day I was watching 'The Hits' video compilation for the 1st time in several years & I fell out of my chair when the credits started rolling. "Why isn't 'When Doves Cry' on this compilation?!?" I yelled towards the TV.
I can't believe that classic was left off of it.

All of the Revolution was too white to be very coordinated at all. That is why they had to go when Prince got the the heavily choreographed floor shows of the late 80s and 90s

I feel the same way everytime I see it. Perhaps WB will include it on a new release of the Purple Rain DVD. It is a great video without too much dependence on film clips - unlike most videos for singles that came from a soundtrack in the 80s. The effects were cool 20 years ago and Prince's moves are still captivating

Um...I'm a white guy and not that I'm a fucking undulating acrobat or nuthin', but I got me some goddamn rhythm!! I certainly could've handled the Revolution's moves hella more slick than Bobby or Fink...

Anxiety's another white guy who can turn the shit out rhythmically...and I bet BananaCologne can do the same.

I'm sure you didn't mean it, but generalising based on race is usually not a great idea.

It's just that Prince had some TERRIBLY uncoordinated white folk in his band back then...I swear that they were instructed to act like that...for some reason, it adds to the charm.

Well, to be fair...if someone said something about the NPG being "too black" you wouldn't exactly laugh it off, would you?

And hell yeah there's a Doves Cry poster...it was on my wall in high school, and I THINK I got it from an LP...anyone remember where that was available?
