Narrative of Video:
The video begins with the camera focused on some Japanese calligraphy symbols and then moves to a spotlight in the center of the stage. Prince appears on stage
and the camera shows various shots of him in different color clothing. A member of his band moves up and the camera stays focused on him then moves back to Prince. The camera does a wider angle shot and Prince and a series of various dancing positions is shown. The camera moves back in close and
shows Prince at different angles up close. This video is not done as a video but more like a series of stop action shots.

How the Music and Video Relate:
The music and video do not go well together. This is like a Power point presentation accompanied by Little Red Corvette.
Review:
This video seems more like someone has done a personal Power Point presentation of Prince and uploaded it with Little Red Corvette being played in the background than it does a real video. The quality is terrible, and it does not come close to reflecting Prince's talent as a singer and musician.
