Love Symbol, tied together with a loose plotline. The film was the 69th best-selling video of 1994.[2]

Plot

The story begins with the assassination of Egyptian Princess Mayte's father by seven unknown assailants. Mayte believes that the assassins were after the sacred "3 Chains of Gold". She sets out to meet with Prince, as she believes he is the only one that can protect the chains from the seven assassins. What follows is a romance between Prince and Mayte, and Prince organizing the assassination of the assailants (accompanied by the song "7"). Local television anchors Randy Meier and Lauren Green were featured in this film, sitting at the anchor desk, while Kirstie Alley reported from the field.

The final speech of the film (made by Mayte) does not appear on the album; instead, another phone call is in its place. The actual songs that appear in the film are:
