168. Last Christmas - Wham

December 20th 2008 23:26
Last Christmas Wham
Wham Last Christmas


From the really cheesy 1980's file comes this horror piece from english two piece Wham. So much sugar in this song you can get cavities just listening to it!!! The video features Wham's two band members George Michael and Andrew Ridgely frolicking in the snow with their respective girlfriends. See how long you can last through it!!!


Here are the lyrics to the chorus

Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year
To save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special(Special)

- and it's that last special that really makes you want to wretch

Anyway here's the video - enjoy!



Wishing you a merry jolly and WHAM free christmas

167. Beautiful Girls - Sean Kingston

December 20th 2008 23:12
Sean Kingston Beautiful Girls
Beautiful Girls Sean Kingston


Reggae influenced singer Sean Kingston had a bonafide worldwide hit with this song alothough the lyrics proved somewhat controversial with the use of the word suicidal (he later changed this to In Denial for radio play). The song samples the bass line from the Legendary Ben E King song Stand By Me. The song was one of the biggest hits of 2007. 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!

164. The Fear - Lily Allen -

December 20th 2008 11:26
The Fear - Lily Allen
Lily Allen


Fantastic new supercut video from the always cute Lily Allen. The video has more than a passing nod to Bjork's Its Oh So Quiet - with giant dancing presents and balloons. There is that wonderful bittersweet quality to it that so many of her songs seem to have. It's brand new hot off the press - hope you enjoy it!

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

157. Lisa Mitchell - Neapolitan Dreams

December 17th 2008 21:51

A Former Australian Idol Poppet - Lisa Mitchell is definitely riding the coat tails of similar singers from the UK and US namely Lily Allen, Kate Nash and Kate Perry. Though this is a lovely song and the dreamy surreal forest clip is completely out there and one of my favourites this year. Fair to say we'll be seeing more of her.

156. Just - Mark Ronson -

December 16th 2008 23:12
Hey there,

Mark Ronson would be just about the hottest DJ on the planet right now and his ability to do wonderous cover versions of songs went to a new level with this. I funky ska version of Radiohead's Just. Made for the Exit Music album of Radiohead covers it is sassy and not an unworthy version of this great song. Singer Alex Greenwald does the vocals and feature in the clip with multilpe Ronson's What's more the video parodies the ground breaking Radiohead clip and makes fun of the whole narrative with subtitles.The famous scene with all the people lying on the ground is mercilessly sent up with the same people getting up and dancing. With a sense of humour and talent to burn we will see lots from Mr Ronson I am sure. Enjoy!

155. Northern Downpour - Panic At The Disco

December 16th 2008 22:44

Shot in dreamy black and white and featuring all the members of the band - this clip has a kind of nostalgic Beatles quality to it. It also has a nod to batman with the city light projecting the words Hey Moon. All in all an interesting clip from the Nevada based rockers and a great use of narrative and black and white to enhance the wistful nature of the song. Enjoy

153. Moving Mountains - Usher

December 16th 2008 09:11
R & B superstar Usher is on a narrative kick in his music videos. They feature the same characters and an ongoing story. This video starts at the end of his Love In This Club video where the club has burned down. Mr Usher then gets on his cell phone to continue his pursuit of the girl. It ends wth another cliff hanger which will no doubt be the springboard for another video. Well I guess its' a bit like a soap opera and once you start watching them you have to know ho the story is going to finish. Here is the middle episode. Enjoy

152. Right Now - Akon

December 16th 2008 07:04
Hot off the press is this new video from Senegalese American Rapper, hip hop and R&B singer Akon. He has had a string of hits in recent years using catchy melodies and this one is no exception. The clip is pretending to be a movie trailer and of course there are the obligatory na na na's. It seems a little over produced to me and the voice track has got some weird distortion thing over it - but hey it's what the kids are listening to right?? Enjoy

149. Living Doll - Cliff Richard and The Young Ones

December 15th 2008 08:39


The original version of this song comes from 1959 and was a hit for Cliff Richard and The Shadows. The song was written by Lionel Bart (who wrote the music for the musical Oliver!). This clip was made in 1986 with The Young Ones - a comedy group in England based around Rik Mayall, Adrian Edmondson and was written by a young Ben Elton. One of the characters of ridicule on the show was indeed Cliff Richard (the Young Ones being the title of a Cliff Richard song). They got together nd made this cover of his original song. The end result is very memorable and very very funny. Enjoy

148. Womanizer - Britney Spears - Directed by Joseph Kahn

December 15th 2008 03:56

Britney's comeback from ...well her comeback was made complete with this song and clip - over 34million hits and she's back in town - or doing what she did before she went into rehab (leave britney alone!) Well she is still one of the most talked about artists going around - this video was directed by Joseph Kahn who directed her in the Toxic video. He seems to know how to get the best out of her and revels placing her within little narratives and giving her different characters to play. This time she plays different women all hanging out with the one man until she reveals that they are one and the same person. Love her or loathe her she's back with a vengence (you might like to take that test challenging to see if you can make her IQ!!!) 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.

144. Shout To The Top - Style Council

December 13th 2008 06:58

One of my favourite songs of the 80's - Paul Weller caught in between his early punk years with the Jam and his later solo career in the 90's and beyond. This song features him singing in a jacket only he could make cool. The song is a ripper and will have you dancing around the room guaranteed - even if you are hearing it for the first time. Enjoy

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
