Somehow in all these years of my fandom, I've never seen the Everywhere video. WTH? Doesn't fit the song at all, in fact it would have been perfect for Stevie's the Highwayman, since that's the poem they're referencing in this video. Plus, no one from the band is even in it. So yeah...Gypsy is still my favorite, followed by Hold Me and Seven Wonders.

The Gypsy video is fab, but the cut off trees are weird and Lindsey's hairdo is even weirder.
The Hold Me video is nice, not fantastic, just nice.
Holland (maybe the rest of Europe too?) had a slightly different version of the Everywhere video, with the sillouettes of Christine, Mick and John, that made a bit more sense tho I have no idea why no Stevie.
I love the Seven Wonders video, so simple but so beautiful, everybody looked really good and I love the "rainbow" parts.
The Big Love video is good, very 80s, "Sledgehammer"-esque, but I don't think it's as dated now as some of the other videos from that year. I like the rewind part.
The Little Lies video is nice but kinda dumb, why a farm? Why in a barn?

What about the Behind The Mask videos?

Interesting-- from Wikipedia:

The video of the song is a visual depiction of the poem, The Highwayman by Alfred Noyes. There are two versions of the video; one features the story with members of the band appearing throughout, while the other doesn't feature the band at all.

I have never seen the one with the band members! I wonder if it's on youtube too.

It's basically the same video with a few shots of Mick, John, and Christine singing inserted.

Gypsy - forever and always. Mainly because it captivated me as a child and I've never forgotten it.

Gypsy: Just an overall amazing video and song
Hold Me: I like the video, love the song, I don't feel like Stevie enjoyed the set though.
Everywhere: i don't know... kinda cheesy
Seven Wonders: My favorite after Gypsy, they all look so happy
Big Love: It's a cool video, not my favorite song though
Little Lies: I like it, i like when Chris and Stevie are walking next to each other, idk it's kinda cool i guess.

How about 'As Long As You Follow', 'Paper Doll', and 'Love Shines'.

Whatever happened to 'Save Me' and 'Skies the Limit'?

I can't find the latter on Youtube...

Same here! The video and song really impacted me. I hardly considered the two separate from one another. I was 12 and truly bewitched.

Hold me is also a great video. The rest...eh...
