| − | + | The '''1999''' video was shot at the Minneapolis Armory, Minneapolis, Minnesota, during the last week of rehearsals for the [[1999 Tour]] together with videos for [[Video: Automatic|Automatic]] and [[Video: Let’s Pretend We’re Married|Let’s Pretend We’re Married]]. All of them were directed by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Gowers Bruce Gowers], who also directed [[Video: Controversy|Controversy]] and [[Video: Sexuality|Sexuality]] the previous year. | |
| − | + | The '''1999''' video was broadcast sporadically on MTV starting 16 December 1982. This channel was reluctant to regularly play videos of black artists. The initial release of the [[Single: 1999|1999]] only got to 44 on the Pop Chart, showing Prince’s continued difficulty to cross the racial barriers. It was not until March 1983, with the [[Video: Little Red Corvette|Little Red Corvette]] that [[Prince]] was played regularly on this channel after an editorial change. To capitalise on his new crossover appeal, the [[Single: 1999|1999]] was re-serviced to US radio stations in April. It also helped the video to gain more airplay and the single entered the Pop Chart for the second time, this time climbing to number 12. | |
