He recorded this with full instrumentation, then at the last minute stripped it down to this. The producers did not want to release it this way; said it would not sell, but Prince insisted. Yes, the video is from the movie. Just so you can taste some of his live show, this is a really great, if blurry clip from Michigan from the end of a concert. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mbyJrLh9rcu-dJc.html

7:49 Wait until you'll listen to Prince "Head" keyboard solo... Glad to see you might be the first person on YT to react to the full "When doves cry" video. With Prince's 80's videos (except Automatic for obvious reasons), always be sure to get the full version of the song because MTV used to cut videos longer than 3 minutes during daytime. And the result is you don't get the full song to enjoy. I hope you'll get the full "I could never take the place of your man" video because the shortened one lacks a sublime jazz/blues guitar solo.

its a whole genre on its own as rock / funk /hip-hop and pop in it. Its layered so much and so simple on the other hand that it has all musical diverse styles in it. Voice of prince and lin drum is the bass and the chorus inside layered makes it classic and mirroring effect on classic orchestra could easily fit. Guitar rock solo and piano end shows this song tells a story with an opening and an end like no other and lyrics are deep that fits your emotions and amazes. It has a Mozart effect all over you . Its a myth one of the 10 best song of all TIME in every genre . ITS MAJESTIC and it get props for ever and more. This is a song that makes Prince a 21st century musical genius of ALL TIME.
