100 greatest Music Videos

In todays lesson, we found that we need to investigate independent research on the 100 best video's since the beginning in 1960s. This was made by channel 4. Golden age of music video has passed. Late 1970s-1990's (peak for music video) less tv meant that everybody saw music video.

Today we look at 100 countdown to 90.

100- Music youth - Pass the Dutchie 1962 (First home grown british blackband. If you were black and wanted to make a point, you had to say it with a smile or a joke. In the video, blacks found not guilty.



99- Supergrass- pumping on your stereo



98- Bronski beat/smalltown boy in london, gay gets beaten up for being gay, very contraversal video and rose awareness of how shallow people can be.



97- Cornershop- Brimful of Ash (video shot across two continents



96- So solid crew - 21 seconds 2001, 21 seconds to introduce themselves whole story within 3minutes. It was said they were racist and if it was group of white kids, the public would have had a positive view on the crew but because they were black it was pure racism.



95- Joanus Ackerlund- Cardigan my favourite game. Love affair the game
a94- Bonnie Tyler- Total eclipse of the heart



93- Rolling stones- we love you (Brian Jones died of drugs) drowned in a swimming pool.



92- Rocket, MTV was huge hit (adds value to song)



91-The specials- ghost town 1981



90- The pet shop boys/go west 1993, cartoon esc computer graphics style.
