Erykah Badu's strip in Dallas

[tumbleweed41]

Having watched the video from Erykah Badu's song 'Window Seat' where she strips while walking down the same avenue JFK was shot, with grainy '60's like video and a violent shot at the end that results in her 'evolving' into a better person, I wanted to know what others thought of it.

I personally thought it was powerful and daring. And rather than evoking an exhibitionist attitude, I felt that it showed a vulnerability on Erukah's part.

Not to mention that the song itself has a powerful yet vulnerable message.

What did you think?

The end is more provocative than the nudity.

I watched it. I found it somewhat enlightened (the end I mean). I don't know what the stripping was supposed to symbolize, but I liked it anyway. I didn't find the commentary at the end all that revolutionary, but hey, if it gets a few kids thinking about something other than materialistic things, great.
