Partyman (1989)
*** (out of 4)
This here is basically a music video, although I'm guessing some are going to see it more as a short. With Prince's passing less than 24 hours ago I decided to go through some of his filmmography and this here certainly stands out. This was the second song featured for 1989's BATMAN and it's quite a clever little song and video. We basically have Prince dressed up as the Joker and he performs the song as such. The song itself certainly isn't ground-breaking and it will never appear on a Greatest Hits album but at the same time it's somewhat catchy with a strong vocal performance and I thought the music was quite good as well. The video itself looks to have had a large budget as it features a lot of people dressed like the Joker and the sets were also very well done.
