Rock And Roll Love Affair (stylized as 'Rock & Roll Love Affair' in the videos intro) is the first Prince video to have been broadcast officially on a YouTube TV Channel.

On 19 November 2012 Purple Music facebook account announced that the video would be premiered the same week as the release of Rock And Roll Love Affair single.

The next day, the video was made available in HD format on Purple Music YouTube TV Channel.

The video shows Prince singing, playing guitar and keyboards in Paisley Park’s Studio C, rehearsal room (a.k.a. the "NPG Music Club" formerly the "Love4Oneanother room"). He is backed by Ida Nielsen on bass, Andy Allo on guitar and Hannah Ford on drums. The video contains shots from a directors perspective, close-ups of Prince, Hannah Ford, Andy Allo and Ida Nielsen, both in color and black and white. In addition of shots of Prince and his trio band, a few shots show several horns players in the aisles of the room, paired with different models serving as personal assistants, holding sheet music while they play their part.

The rehearsal room carpet also features the NPG Music Club logo. It is unlikely that inclusion of these references of earlier Prince projects are intentional.
