What's Your Favorite Music Video?
Music videos have been around for some time now, however, really started making a visual statement (as art) in their own right (apart from the song); probably in the late 1980's. This was when "basic" special effects (generated by computers) came along.Back then, (if you lived in Australia) you had to watch a show called "Countdown" (top of the pops format -on TV) to see your favorite musicians perform. In Australia, The ABC television station has a music video all night (weekends) TV show called "Rage" . In America it is MTV (or it was in the late eighties). Nowadays; of course, we have most music videos on youtube.
Anyway, you get the idea.

Here's another genius mashup......
Interestingly, the Mazzy Star song, has the chords (A, E, Bm) repeated throughout; whilst the Chris Isaak song, has the chords (Bm, A, E) repeated throughout. These chord progression/s, both have a slightly skewed tonal center, (giving an ethereal feel to these progression/s)....

(for something a bit different)...
A brilliant song, in my opinion.....
This video is the last concert the original members of Pink Floyd performed together.

Mercedes. I love to watch that video. It was well put together. I love the song but also love watching the girls dancing. I couldn't do that now. I'm getting older and still trying to work my new hip in but with all the walking I have to do now with our lock down is helping me lots
