200. Praise You - Fatboy Slim - Directed by Spike Jonze

January 4th 2009 22:19

Fatboy Slim Priase you

For our 200TH post I thought I'd give you a very special all time favourite video of mine. Fatboy Slim has made a name for himself with catchy tunes and great videos. Spike Jonze is the director who has put music videos on the map. This outrageous crazy clip features the director Jonze as the leader of a fictional dance troup - Richard Koufey of the Torrence Community dancers. The group perform a routine to puzzled theatre goers outside a Los Angeles cinema who are not quite sure what to make of it. Fatboy Slim has a cameo in the clip as an onlooker. The end of the clip features a mockumentary interview with the leader Koufey and the troup post performance - where he claims to have a lot of B-Boy influence coming from New York. Such a easy concept but it is so well done - would have cost them next to nothing and the final result is one of the most famous and best music videos of all time. Enjoy

190. Sober - Pink

January 1st 2009 11:00

Sober Pink

Pink has had a big year and this is her latest offering. This clip was shot in Stockholm Sweden and features Pink and a doppelganger who goes out and gets drunk and ends up flirting with guys and girls. She then calls up Pink. Then it suddenly goes into a small white room and Pink is now wearing white and a short haired bob white wig with a fringe - where she sings some more. Then as this clip gets weirder she is in a forest with things reflected off the trees. Then in a final completely bizarre twist - the doppelganger ends up in Pink's bed and starts having sex with her. Yep there a fairly full on lesbian scene which is intercut with pink or the other one either singing in the forest or drunk at the initial party. So she is basically having sex with herself.

I have no idea what is going on in this clip - might have to watch it a few times to find out

188. Electric Feel - MGMT - Directed by Ray Tintori

January 1st 2009 03:54

MGMT Electric Feel

Brooklyn based pop duo MGMT (formerly known as The Management) had a big hit with this the second single off their Oracular Spectacular album. The clip is a psychedelic crazy jungle party with a bizarre fantasy feel to it. It was nominated for a 2008 MTV award for art direction. It definitely has that LSD acid drug trip feel to the clip (and the track). One of the biggest songs and clips from 2008 – hope you enjoy!.

187. Clint Eastwood - Gorillaz - Driected by Jamie Hewlett and Pete Candeland

December 31st 2008 22:47

Gorillaz Clint Eastwood

This track comes from Gorillaz first self titled album. The world's biggest virtual band burst onto the scene with this hit in 2001 (though they had started up in 1998). The brain child of Blur frontman Damon Albarn and Tank Girl comic creator Jamie Hewlett the band is made up of four animated characters. In terms of success Albarn struck gold with this album but that pails compared to the success he had with their second album Demon Days in 2005. We eagerly await their next album due late 2009 - till then enjoy this great clip.

185. Toe Jam - The BPA Featuring David Byrne and Dizzee Rascal - Directed by Keith Schofield

December 31st 2008 01:41

Toe Jam BPA - porn sex nudity? Or fun with black censor bars

This is an amazing clip that is both very naughty and very funny. Shot like a dodgy 1970's swedish orgy from some bad magazine the protagonists strip off and have their rude bits covered by a black bar or black dots (again typical of some soft core porn from the late 1970's early 1980's) The nudei dancers move around into positions where the black censorship bars and dots actually form there own pictures. It's really inventive and funny.

I did a little digging around about the group the BPA. First of all the track features the vocal talents of legendary Talking Heads front man David Byrne as well as the rapping skills of Dizzee Rascal - probably the number one rapper in the UK. The BPA stands for the Brighton Port Authority. The band is an alias for one Mr Norman Cook - who was the bass player for the House Martins but gained real fam and notoriety as electronic artist Fatboy Slim - Part of this fame was with the use of really clever and inventive music videos. So it all fits perfectly. Anyway here is the ciip for Toe Jam - ENJOY

182. Rockit - Herbie Hancock - Directed by Godley & Creme

December 30th 2008 05:08

Jazz Legend Herbie Hancock - Rockit

When Jazz legend (and we are talking about one of Miles Davis's keyboardists here) decided to turn his hand to pop music he completely changed it forever - this is probably the earliest beginnings of rap and hip hop. The first popular tune to include scratching and turntablism. This revolutionary track also came with a music video decades ahead of its time. UK directing team Godley and Creme motorised human sculptures from sculptor James Whiting and got them to move in rhythm with the music. Herbie Hancock proved that he could turn his hand to anything with this track and the results might look slightly dated now but this was seriously groundbreaking at the time as no one was doing anything like it musically or visually. Enjoy this great clip.

175. Ready For The Floor - Hot Chip - Directed by Nima Nourizadeh

December 27th 2008 03:47

Hot Chip - Ready For The Floot

This is a wonderful clip directed by Nima Nourizadeh. It has been said the clip is all about duality with the lead singer Alexis Taylor feautred both as a nerd and the joker intercut with the most precise editing I've seen in a music video for ages. The use of colour and the splitting of the images is brilliant and the track is so much fun and so catchy you can't help but get caught up in it. This track from electro-brit rockers is one of my favourites from the past year. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did,

174. Blind - Hercules and Love Affair

December 27th 2008 03:21

Blind

One of the great dance tracks of 2008 from a music project made up of New York based DJ Andy Butler. Members include Nomi Ruiz, Kim Ann Foxman and Antony Hegarty (lead vocalist in Antony & The Johnsons). The track rocks and the clip is fantastic - it's kind of a mythological surreal thing with smoke doing all kinds of tricks and a beuatiul woman walking around this surreal landscape - enjoy

166. Weapon Of Choice - Fatboy Slim - Directed By Spike Jonze

December 20th 2008 12:58

Weapon Of Choice Christopher Walken Fatboy Slim

Weapon Of Choice Walken

One of my all time favourite videos - there is no question of this video being a classic. Firstly the track by fatboy slim is amazing and features funk legend Bootsy Collins doing his thang. And it also has samples from Sly and the Family Stone. BUT it is for the remarkable music video directed by Spike Jonze that this song has its fame.

Spike Jonze called on the actor Chris Walken (famous for his bad guy action roles but who had been a dancer in his youth) to dance and fly around a hotel lobby. Great dance moves and some fun special effects make this just a joy to watch. Here it is - Enjoy it!

161. Dance Hall Days - Wang Chung - Directed by Derek Jarman

December 19th 2008 03:12

Cool On Craze

OK it is a terrible song - with perhaps the most bizarre lyrics ever (well next to their other later release - Have Fun Tonight (everybody Wang Chung tonight). The clip provided here on this page is the well known ritzy american made clip which was played on high rotation on MTV (and countdown for those growing up in Australia) BUT before I show you that - here's the link for the rare British clip which was directed by the amazing Derek Jarman - here is his version of Dance Hall Days/LINK]

Now I mentioned before the fact that there are some bizarre lyrics in this song - what I meant was - EVERY SINGLE LYRIC is completely mad - doesn't make sense and almost random. Don't believe me? Take a look

Take your baby by the hand
And make her do a high hand stand
Take your baby by the heel
And do the next thing that you feel

Chorus:
We were so in phase
In our dance hall days
We were cool on craze
When i, you, and everyone we knew
Could believe, do, and share in what was true
Oh, I said

Take your baby by the hair
And pull her close and there there there
Take your baby by the ears
And play upon her darkest fears

Repeat chorus

So take your baby by the wrist
And in her mouth an amethyst
And in her eyes two sapphires blue
And you need her and she needs you
And you need her and she needs you

- just bizarre - anyway after all that - here's the clip - enjoy

159. Hungry Like The Wolf - Duran Duran - Directed by Russell Mulcahy

December 17th 2008 22:35

Nothing screams 80's more than the english pop band Duran Duran and this 1982 clip has it all. Shot on the streets and in the jungles of exotic Sri Lanka by Russell Mulcahy (who would go on to direct the Highlander films) this clip features the band running around in bright white suits being attended to by locals. Completely out of place is an African woman painted as a cheetah who makes roaring faces. Its a bit crazy, the narrative isn't really explained (why does Simon LeBon just upturn a table in a bar?) and it's completely over the top but there is no doubting that its a fun clip - those were the 80's. Enjoy

146. Vogue - Madonna - Directed by David Fincher

December 13th 2008 11:41

Yes the man responsible for FightClub, Se7en and The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button collaborated with the undisputed queen of pop to come up with this very memorable clip. Exquisitely shot in black and white and in a design that recalls 1930's glamour and art deco this clip is one of the defining clips of the 1990's. Madonna never looked this good and Fincher's direction is astounding.

143. Crazy In Love - Beyonce Featuring Jay Z - Directed by Jake Nava

December 13th 2008 01:30

With a killer riff, a rap provided by boyfriend Jay Z and her obvious talent - Beyonce was always going to make it on her own. With her Destiny Fulfilled she went solo with this monster hit that took the world by storm. The clip features her in various dance sequences (my favourite being the one where there is water going everywhere). A fun clip to a great song - Enjoy

142. Beat It - Michael Jackson - Directed by Bob Giraldi

December 13th 2008 00:58

An all time classic music video from one of the great artists. Michael Jackson so often used film genres for his clips (horror for thriller) and this clip draws its inspiration on the sort of gang war that lies at the heart of the musical west side story. The clip is directed by veteran Bob Giraldi and is choreographed by Michael Peters (who plays the gang leader in the white outfit). The song features a killer lead guitar rift and one of the great guitar solos by Eddie Van Halen and it represent a fusion of R & B and Rock. One for the ages - enjoy

110. U Can't Touch This - MC Hammer

November 22nd 2008 21:55

Yes, I had to include it because of it's impact in the whole rap R & B world - MC Hammer made the phrases U Can't Touch This and Hammertime part of everyday language in this epic rap song about how good he was. Of course it all starts with the sample from Rick James masterful funk number SuperFreak. There is much to be made of this clip - one of the original booty shaking clips, that oversize parachute pants, the bizarre little dance thing has does. But my favourite moment is about four minute in as he sings the lyrics "I've toured around the world from London to Bombay" - there is a 3 second slo mo shot of him jumping backwards wearing only his underwear and a bowler hat - it ALWAYS cracks me up. Enjoy
