The Best Music Videos of the Last 10 Decades
« on: December 18, 2013, 09:29:17 PM »

I've been missing out on good music videos since ditching cable a decade ago, so let's catch up.

Rules:

1. Only three music videos per post.
2. Sorted alphanumerically.
 a. Explicitly state whether you are sorting by song title, artist or director.
 b. Latin characters get priority, keep your filthy foreign letters below the Zs.
3. DON"T POST MUSIC VIDEOS MADE MORE THAN 10 DECADES AGO OR IN THE FUTURE

I'll start us off with a menage a trois du Electric Deux Fois Trois:

You're not serious, are you? I can do multiple posts, right?

Sorted by artist, then title. I'm in a dark mood today... don't watch the first two if you don't like death-ish metal.

Can't get the videos to embed, so you'll have to settle for links.

(1) Dan Hartman, "I Can Dream About You."  The movie sucked.  This song didn't.



(2) Was (Not Was), "Spy in the House of Love.  Check out the amazing 1980s hair!



(3) Scritti Politti, "First Boy in This Town."  Motown? Beach Boys?  Sure, why not?

No, it's a Tari-esque satire, of course.   p;)

Not much a music-video-er but these come to mind.  I remember Take on Me and Black Hole Sun being seen as something of watersheds but wasn't really in the scene to know if that was accurate.

Black Hole Sun (original mid-to-late-90s version) was definitely one of the top 10 music videos.

PS  Amazed at some of those that you found.  :-00

Nice song/video! The stop-motion reminds me a bit of

Of course with youtube we now get to savor fan-made videos, many of which are actually better than their official counterparts. Case in point: http://www.itsjonsalmon.com/kids - not on youtube but definitely worth viewing.

The Let Down one reminds me of Legoland in Denmark. Little ants mechanically going about their day to day. Cool clip. Subtitles ruin it though.
