174. Blind - Hercules and Love Affair

December 27th 2008 03:21
Hercules and Love Affair
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!

The Ian Carey Project - Get Shaky
Get Shaky


Baltimore electro outfit The Ian Carey Project have struck gold with this catchy number called Get Shaky. The clip will take you back to your school days - passing notes around class and the general shennanigans that go on at lunchtime. Vocals are supplied by Kelly Barnes. Enjoy

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

December 19th 2008 03:12

Wang Chung Dance Hall Days
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
Hungry Like The Wolf - Duran Duran

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

131. Infinity 2008 - Guru Josh Project

December 9th 2008 02:56


For those of you who remember the early 1990's you might recall this techno classic - well it has been remixed (like so many have) and had this nice little clip made for it. Guru Josh is still going strong!! 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

109. Like a Prayer - Madonna - Directed by Mary Lambert

November 22nd 2008 21:43

Great song with an interesting clip. Madonna's contribution to the race debate in America was this clip which features a black man coming to her aid during an assault and then being the one arrested. There is all kinds of religious iconography, the burning KKK cross, the black Jesus with the gospel choir and the compelling little narrative going through it makes it compelling viewing - watch for cameo from soul diva Chaka Khan. Enjoy

105. Talk Like That - The Presets - Directed by Jonas and Francois

November 21st 2008 22:30

Great clip - psychotic rock chick locked in a cell with just instruments and speakers. She goes into a rock fuelled frenzy of a wanna be star. Directed by french duo Jonas and Francois - this one is going to be big. Here it is

96. What You Waitin For - Gwen Stefani - Directed by Francis Lawrence

November 20th 2008 11:06

This video sort of stars like real life - with Stefani on the phone to her manager talking about the prospects of her own solo career post 'No Doubt'. It then goes into this incredible fantasy land based on Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. The clip is directed by Francis Lawrence who went on to direct the 2008 hit film I am legend with Will Smith. Enjoy.

95. Big Girls Don't Cry - Fergie - Directed by Anthony Mandler

November 19th 2008 22:58

The lead singer of the Black Eyed Peas has carved out an incredibly successful solo career - Fergie (of Fergalicious fame) hits us this time with a softer ballad rather than the high energy she is known for). Directed by pop music video favourite Anthony Mandler - this clip is beautifully shot and Fergie looks amazing. Hope you enjoy it.

92. Call On Me -Eric Prydz - Directed by Huse Monfaradi

November 18th 2008 22:09


Definitely one for the guys - Swedish DJ made this annoyingly catchy tune using a sample from Steve Winwood's song Valerie - Winwood re-recorded the lyrics so they would now be call on me. The clip by Huse Monfaradi features very scantily clad women in gym doing an aerobic routine that borders on soft porn. Naturally there is one lucky guy in the room also working up a sweat. There are references to films but really this clip is just an excuse to watch women with not much on jump around. To that end it succeeds brilliantly. Hope you enjoy (which will be easy for the guys)

89. Run - Gnarls Barkley - Directed by Happy

November 16th 2008 00:01
A bright breezy clip for the latest offerent from the music act known as Gnarls Barkley. Directed by Happy, look for the cameo from Justin Timberlake. A trippy, freaky hippy spin out of a clip. Hope you enjoy it.
