I'd like to list my favourite music videos I've come across last year. There have been many, and I'm sure there are many more I haven't seen, what I'm trying to say is...this list is based on the as-wide-and-far-as-my-eyes-have-seen scale. Here goes...
In no order of merit:
1. Feist - 1234
What can I say, this video makes me giggle in glee...it can totally make my day. Sometimes the best things in life may look simple...but are the most difficult to execute.
Check out some behind-the-scenes footage of the video:
2. Timbaland feat. The Hives - Throw It On Me
I love this! It's a comic book visual feast that's thrown on your face the way the song has been thrown to your ears from a slingshot with full force. Love the song too, this is what you get if we all (rock & hip hop & WWE?) can all get along.
3. Bat For Lashes - What's A Girl To Do
An example of how a music video can actually enhance your enjoyment of a song. You know sometimes movies (adapted from books) struggle to stay loyal to the book? This video stayed very loyal to the song - the creepy and haunting feel of falling out of love never felt so right.
4. Band Of Horses - Is There A Ghost
I don't know what's the significance of a pillow thief but this video had a build-up, a climax and an ending - making it very easy to enjoy this very simple yet creative piece of work.
5. Mark Ronson feat. Lily Allen - Oh My God
Did someone say "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" - Yes, cartoons can seduce too and to the music of Mark Ronson, it's just purr-fection dahling...
There you have it. My top 5. You have no idea how many times my window hung while I'm posting this. Not Cool Blogspot. Not Cool. Hope you enjoyed that.
