The absolute shite quality of this video does not matter. What does matter is that you realize that this is the moment Prince realizes he's made it. Look at his face when sings, "when you got it made, nothing comes too hard."
Then at about 3:46 in the clip he does about a dozen splits in a row, like he's on a freaking trampoline, and proves that he is a limber and insane m-f-ing genius.
And then when half the hair-gelled audience tumbles on the stage, Lori fresh-from-Footloose Singer and Grace Jones are up on stage killing it.
It's a delicious time capsule, but it it's also timeless proof that THERE IS NO ONE LIKE PRINCE.
Happy birthday. I love purple.
