I'm not a big music video fan either; but of the few that have caught my attention over the years, this is my fave. I know YOU won't like it, but others might. :)

in celebration of your grand appearance, i've found a relic that has wee glimpses of your tall Massey boyfriend:) this sample YouTube - NCN video effort, lots going on behind the scene(s) hopefully shows there can be more than meets the eye when it comes to video creation...of course it helps to start with a song...don't mind the haywire segments, the gear was acting strange, as was the mind

Whilst I have already submitted one entry I see no rule saying that one is the maximum. only that jj intended the submissions to be of full "music video" status.I am therefore surprised that nobody has yet thought to offer what is I believe usually accepted as the first specific "music video" and the trendsetter
However there is another way of looking at the aims of this thread. which whilst nominally was fave music videos has strayed off topic bit and included some humoUrous material.In fact many of my favourite youtube items are comedy ones especially those featuring British humour and my absolute top British comedian has to be the late Peter Sellers.He was the master mimic and provided the voices of most of the odd nall characters in the ground breaking Goon Show. So to return to the music video theme here is my favourite comedy music video. In it Peter takes the urine out of not only the Beatles but also Laurence Olivier by adapting a Beatles hit to the style and delivery of Larry's Shakespearean Richard III

An early John Hiatt discovery. I get a kick out of his emoting......VERY theatrical.

Not much of a video with pictures of Golsboro moving around.


Anyway here's 2 good ones by him that most likely missed the top 40.

Affair on Touhy Ave. 11-08-2009 06:30 PM

Re: Please list/link to any of your fave music videos
 
Here's another by Goldsboro.



There's something I wonder and i'd really like to know your thoughts on this.

Apparently this song was about Goldsboro comming of age with a much older woman when he was a teen and even lost his verginity by her.


Makes me wonder why he'd wanna share this with the rest of the world.

Was it something he was pround of or did he just feel he needed to mention this?

Wonder what his folks thought?


What's aslo interesting is besides the song being banned on some stations is it was released in 1973, but he wrote it 5 yeasr earlier and I guess must have been hesitant in recording and releasing it.

This is noteworthy to me for the mere fact that I didn't know such videos existed in 1969 :

I think I remember seeing that on his Good Time Hour show...great stuff!
Anne Murray says she can never say enough about him or repay Glen Campbell for all he did for her when she was starting out. She was a semi-regular on his show, on tour with him and they have an album together..
He's a great talent.

that is the (way to go)

usually shortened to just Atta Go


there was a stage where i listened to DW studio recordings 24 7, THE voice


last year i searched youtube for a live performance video of tune called Honey I Still Do, but no luck...appreciate if ya run across it


i have to catch up on all the contributions keeping this thread going, thanks...again, originally i was looking for a variety of broadcast music videos such as the interesting one by John Mayer...never saw it before, thanks

btw, was at Hamilton Music Week forums and workshops last week where much was discussed about the current state and changes to delivery of music video and audio productions...info and networking overload but what i took from it is that the attention span of the general masses has dwindled over the years...kinda stating the obvious but yes, we are a drive thru society

i watched many videos lately, a few appealed...dont get the Taylor Swift thing

I seem to like her version of Krauss' cover though the original by the Foundations is better.





Too bad this song by the group seems to be forgotten.

I don't know the duo who did the english version of this song which I've heard a few times but this is the orginal Portuguese version of the song.


Robert Lamn did of version of this as well.

this just sounds like regurgitated madonna music (from 20 years ago. wow, time flies!) to me...but this gaga is even more unattractive, imo...big budget video...i dont know if this is one song or not....that beyonce has a nice smile

A good travelling song from The Partridge Family.



Patti 03-24-2010 06:46 PM

The audio isn't perfect, but someone might like watching this.


Here are the lyrics if anyone's interested:


23

23 seconds, all things we love will die
23 magic, if you can change your life

Your tainted heart, my tainted love, repent now
How many times ?
As long as you live, how many times ?
The world will go around

He was a friend of mine, he was a son of god ... he was a son of a gun

23 seconds, in you I see a chance
23 magic, if you change the name of love

Your crazy heart, my crazy love, repent now
How many times ? As long as you wish
How many times ? The world will go around
How many times ? As long as you want
How many times ? The world will go around

He was a friend of mine, he was a son of a gun ... he was a son of god

23



[Thanks to Shannon for these lyrics]


... and one with better audio:

i am glad the thread is active bit i must say, the definition and scope of what i meant by a video has broadened...but better that we are broad than narrow minded:)

back to some videos that have been storyboarded as part of the preproduction process and then filmed and then had the magic applied (i like a video to stand on its own merits but some CGI in moderation is fine, imo) in post production:

these 3 are nominated for Junos this year:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmmbD...ayer_embedded#

(this actually aint the one i know of as her nominated video but i will post this version anyhow...this version doesnt seem like anything special but nice tune, and a quite hearty vocal)

YouTube- Serena Ryder - Little Bit Of Red

and this is one is for those looking for something a bit darker:
