I figured that I’d start a topic here on the best music videos and post them here for discussion. I have a pretty long list of what I think are the greatest and most influential music videos ever made. Some are classics from the MTV era of music and others are YouTube viewing staples. Remember these are my opinions and to make viewing easier, I’ll probably post one or two or sometimes three videos at a time and my thoughts on each of them.
Control- Janet Jackson
It may have been the fourth single from her album of the same name but I think this is the video that definitely shot Janet into super stardom. She didn’t need to rely on Michael’s influence on music and connections or her father as her manager to make it big in the industry. This video is the moment when she managed to literally take Control over her life and career and it paid off very well.
Here It Goes Again- Ok Go
Who knew that treadmills could do more than be exercise equipment. The dance movements are amazing considering the band is on top of a moving surface that could cause serious injury with one simple misstep.
