In style it is not too far removed from the [[Video: Alphabet St.|Alphabet St.]] video. It features [[Prince]] singing the song in a computer generated background of light blue sky. The title ''I Wish U Heaven'' floats through the images, in the font made by [[Margo Chase]] as used for the song titles on the album. Other images include the figurines [[Prince]] had also on a necklace, as seen on the front of the [[Tourbook:_Lovesexy|Lovesexy Tourbook]]. | In style it is not too far removed from the [[Video: Alphabet St.|Alphabet St.]] video.

In some shots [[Prince]] is over-imposed in a close-up, when he is also shown in the background. There are also images of a blueish green apple on a branch, and a humming bird, the deeper meaning of which (if any) is uncertain. |

|Quotations & trivia = An unreleased slightly alternate version of this video exist. Its colors seem to have more of a green hue and there are less lyrics and objects floating through the screen, which are sometimes also in a different color. Instead there are more close-up shots of [[Prince]] singing, but at no point the alternate take is spectacularly different. The alternate also runs three seconds longer, but this is mostly the fade out at the end which is slightly extended. | |Quotations & trivia = An unreleased slightly alternate version of this video exist.
