Prince 'TMWU' live 1984 video = Stunning, go revisit it !

I dug out my old video compilation from the Rage tv special which showed every video in sequence from day one upto the Thieves in the Temple video. I have to say that the one video that i kept rewinding over and over was the Live version of Take me with you. It starts off all nice and neat like on the album but then he and the revolution just tear it up. Within 2 minutes it turns into a great Rock Funk jam that has so much power and confidence. It has everything, the look is mega , the dancing, the music and its addictiveness. His guitar playing is sooo raw . Love it. If you aint got it then go get it!.

I concur.

I would love to have an mp3 of this version. He tears it up on the guitar solo.

Sure would like to see that one again. Haven't seen it in years.
I will do today what you won't, so tomorrow I can do what you can't.

... Take me with you
his second best video ever ....
The guitar solo is so cool, especially the Controversy line.
Love the yellow lights too.

It's a pitty he didn't play the whole original song ... but it's still great




In case you're wondering what's his best ..... AMERICA !!!
This live version is amazing ...

Don't forget the Live version of A Love Bizarre (8 March 1986 Warfield Theatre, San Fransisco) ...
this is no official video-clip ... but i would have been the best!!


Yes, I love the long live vids

To Syr', Rage TV was an Australian tv show that showed all the videos, i think they do this for many other artists. Its awesome, just back to back videos. This clip by the way has a superimposed graphic of an aerial landscape shot which makes it look like the wholw stage is flying through the air. His clothes in the video are just about my most fave, its a long sparkly trench coat with white sparkly trousers and white high heeled boots and a big white ruffled shirt. He looks soooo confident and in control. The bands playing is very tight and very funky.

The audio-track is on Sabotage's "Sound and Vision Vol. I" .... so I guess you most be able to find a mp3 somewhere.
