APPLE MUSIC'S MANIC FOR PRINCE

­­Using archival footage from Prince’s vault, The Prince Estate has created a video for “Manic Monday,” the song he handed over to The Bangles that became a smash for the band.

It’s an Apple Music/iTunes exclusive. Watch it here.

The recently discovered footage features Prince and his then band, The Revolution, rehearsing their live show as well as their dance routine for the “When Doves Cry” video.

“Manic Monday” appears on Originals (NPG/Warner), which includes Prince’s version of “The Glamorous Life,” “Jungle Love,” “Nothing Compares 2 U” and other songs that became hits for others.

Following the completion of Prince's two-week Tidal exclusive, which began 6/7, Originals is available today via all download and streaming partners and on CD, and will be released on LP on 7/19.

Speaking of Prince, you can find an iconic shot of the late great on the cover of our just-released Black Music Month special issue.
