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.
Blog open for each person to post their favorite music video/s.
(please post a maximum of 1 per comment). Comments are sought for each music video - Why do you like it? What makes it special?
To kick things off, I'll post a few of my favs. (there's really too many, to choose from)...

Thanks for those additions...
The movie was released in 1959 but I saw it in my final high-school year I think - 1962.
Wonderful melody, and lovely to play on guitar.
Manhã, tão bonita manhã
Na vida, uma nova canção
Cantando só teus olhos
Teu riso, tuas mãos
Pois há de haver um dia
Em que virás
Das cordas do meu violão
Que só teu amor procurou
Vem uma voz
Falar dos beijos perdidos
Nos lábios teus
Canta o meu coração
Alegria voltou
Tão feliz a manhã
Desse amor
Thanks for adding. I reckon you would find this interesting:
Surprised the Author has a little fan base.
The preacher man says it's the end of time
And the Mississippi River, she's a-goin' dry
The interest is up and the stock market's down
And you only get mugged if you go downtown… More
We make our own whiskey and our own smoke too
We have being human in common.
Sometimes I ask what love really is.
Is it the tingle you get? What is it really?
just discovered this today - what fun to make such a video at the height of lockdown! Just look at the multitracking and video techniques.
