Music Videos

I like parts of the Cool video, but for the most part I think it's god awful. The arkward scenes of her rolling around on a bed & the "tea with the Lady of the Manor" montages are particularly painful..."oh look I'm so well adjusted I can give my former lovers new woman the ring he gave me"... I think What you waitin for was far better. JMO.

It's old now but I still cannot get over the constant boob jiggle in Rumors, by Lohan.

Boots, by Simpson is the stuff of nightmares.

Bjork videos are truely gobsmacking and clever.

And I still have a soft spot for Sabotage by the Beastie Boys, despite their last album sucking five kinds of cock. Good ol Spike.

ETA: Seems my fingers are as maladjusted as my tongue.

November Rain.

Anybody watch Pop Up Video back in the day? It was hysterical!!! The best one ever was Lionel Richie's Hello with the blind chick.

I used to LOVE Pop Up Video! They had me in hysterics. All music videos should be Pop Up Videos.

At the gym the other day, I saw a video (an actual video! on MTV!) with Mariah Carey w/Snoop Dogg and Pharrell. I'm not usually a fan of Mariah's but this video made her hot by association, because that Pharrell is so damn hot. The video was for Say Something, off of the Emancipation of Mimi.
Whew, did I mention how hot I find Pharrell?

ETA: See for yourself here.

Groovethang, I recently saw that video and thought it was good until Mariah threw off her coat in that store to reveal that horrible bathing suit thing she was wearing. Sadly, Pharrell and Snoop were the best part of the video and it wasn't even their song!

Also, Hype Williams and Lil' Jon must be stopped!

Exibit A: Lil
Jon "Snap Ya Fingers"

It looks like a fucked up iPod commercial! Are they trying to cause mass seizures with this clip?

I loved Pop Up Video. I liked the one for "Do They Know it's Christmas?" by Band Aid.

Some of my favorite videos:
1. Blink 182, “All the Small Things”
2. Janet Jackson, “Escapade”
3. Matchbox Twenty, “Real World”
4. Foo Fighters, “Learn to Fly”

"Pop-Up Video" kicked all kinds of ass. It was one of my favorite shows when I was about 17. There are still episodes I haven't seen, due to them never airing in Canada, and I want to see them! "Pop-Up Quiz" sucked hard, though.

I hate all the recent videos by Mariah Carey. They're all the same: "Look at me, I'm rich. Look at me carrying my Louis Vuitton bag. Look at me and my Chanel dress with the logos all over it. Look at me and my gold jewellery. Look how rich I am. Also, look at my boobies while you're at it." I think she must be really, really insecure, since all her videos are like that these days. Okay, Mariah, you've got expensive stuff. We know. Congratulations. But your videos still suck!

This Pop-Up video is hilarious. It's from the Divas Live concert and it's the most tortoruous version of "Natural Woman" ever.

Wow. That was brutal. They were all just doing their own thing huh? The pop-ups kicked ass though! I loved when they showed how Gloria was cut out...because of Mariah's hair! Ha.

Good Gawd, I couldn't sleep this AM and was watching TV.
Pearl Jam's new video [don't even know the song] made me physically ill.
I think I need to post over on the Phobia thread about it!
