SPIN-OFF: Memorable Non-Mac Video Images

[jadegypsy]

Almost any Madonna Video ( I used to watch the Madonna Marathons) But especially Vogue video.

The Thriller Video
Sometimes Love Just ain't enough (P. Smith and Don Henley) video.
I'm your baby tonight video (Whitney?)
Thanks to Jake for solving the Tom Petty Alice mystery, I had been wondering about that forever.

You mean Madonnathons! I used to watch them, too....

[jadegypsy]

Violet- yeah, back when VH1 played music videos. Although I must say it still shocks some of my friends that my parents let their kid be "raised" by MTV/VH1 So what do ya think of Madonnas newer stuff?

Mystery?

I thought of a few more...

Don Henley - Boys of Summer...the kid playing the drums..Henley driving around the city in the convertable

Berlin- Take My Breath Away (you know, the song Jessica Simpson killed) Terri Nunn in her torn up dress in the wreckage of the plane

George Michael - Freedom...i'm pretty sure that's the video where the blow up the jukebox

and how could ANY of us forget what are probably the most recognizable videos of all time....anything by Robert Palmer and the 10 look-alike models behind him

I meant to include that.

Also:

- Heart with the cheesey black panther

- Paula Abdul's eye in Straight Up

- Donna Summer Working Hard For The Money as she dances in the middle of the street

- Bette Midler singing Beast Of Burden to Mick Jagger

- David Byrne in the giant suit in Letting The Days Go By

To be honest, I can't even remember the last Madonna CD I bought. Oh wait. Yes, I can. Ray of Light. I really haven't been following her stuff as closely as I used to. Wait. I did buy Music, but didn't enjoy it quite as much. (I'm sorry, I have the flu, and my mind is a little mushy right now
.) And I haven't seen any movies she's done since Evita. Not even sure how many more she's done. But I did love Evita. Even bought it on VHS! I think somewhere I have her Sex book, but that's only because my hubby got a free copy through work.

Okay, now I'm rambling....think I'll just go to bed...

Jake- the tom petty thing was only a mystery to me, I had had that clip stuck in my head forever and could never remember which song it went to, all I remembered was loving the video, made a big impression on a kid I guess

Violet-That book was one peice that I never added to my Madonna collection, i do have all her albums though and the Truth or Dare (it's a concert documentary guys) video, plus I got tixs to see her on this tour, thankfully rumored to be more of a greatest hits then the last one. Although I do agree about the new stuff, not as big a fan, in fact I really don't care for much of American Life

I see. And I always thought Stevie should have played Alice.

the video from the cure with Robert Smith in a wooden box, being thrown of a cliff.. Close To Me? I'm bad with titles! I remember being surplussed by that one as a child, "huh"? Another one of their videos from the same time was very strange too. Liked it a lot.
That's the only band I could think off that hasn't been mentioned already.
Oh hold on,
- Wham! Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go those white clothes and the backup singers... I could mention all their other hits too, of course, just think of the video from Last Christmas
- now I'm thinking of all those British bands from that era: how about Duran Duran: Wild Boys! I'm surprised my mother let me watch that one!

The Wham one is hilarious.

When I think of DD, I picture Simon Le Bon hanging off the boat in Rio or running through the jungle in the hat in Hungry Like The Wolf.

CHOOSE LIFE!! Yeah, love George!

I've never seen the Last Christmas video.

Duran Duran...love them too. My fave video is Reflex because it's full of energy.

Last night I had VH1 Classics on and was cracking up. Do you guys remember the song Road To Nowhere? That video is SO lame Oh, and Flock of Seagulls...I Ran...the big hair and the camera spinning around the room

It's incredibly cheesy, they're out playing in the snow, they have christmas dinner with their girlfriends... add to that the eighties' fashion sense and highlighted hairdo's
