Maybe, but right now She's apparently in the middle of recording The
Next One, and we all know how She doesn't like to be distracted during
the creative process...

Maybe She would, but I don't think She's ever done a vid for someone
else before, and turning your own ideas and emotions into a video must
be very different to trying to do it for someone else, especially when
Prince's forms of imagery tend to be a bit different to Her's 8^)...I
mean, you wouldn't expect a Prince vid to look like "The Sensual World" video,
would you?
