I can't believe no one has mentioned Chris Isaak's Wicked Game or Baby Did A Bad Bad Thing. And if you dont remember these, you'll never forget them once you see them.

which coincidentally introduced the world to a roller skating terry jean bolet(sp) more commonly known as hulk hogan.

 

Actually, if my beer soaked brain is remembering correctly, Michael Nesmith (formerly of The Monkees) is credited with inventing the music video. Did something called 'Elephant Parts' I believe...

It's so sad to see June in the video, right before she passed away. I believe that when she died, a large part of Johnny died too.

 

That's why he only lasted a few more months.

That's a great list. I always thought the "Think I'm in Love" fit the music in a way that not many video's have.

 

One unmentioned video but rather rare is the Godley and Creme video "Cry." It's the one that inspired Michael Jackson for the morphing video he made, which at the moment I can't recall the name of. But since it was done totally with video editing before morphing was discovered its rather unique.

 

I didn't find out Godley and Creme were from 10cc till just a few years ago. The video made sense after that considering G&C's odd sense of humor, i.e. Rubber Bullets.

"Black or White" is the video you're thinking of.

 

I still remember the "In Living Color" parody..."Look me in the face and tell me if you think I'm black or white."

 

And then, Jackson uses a crowbar on a car, and an officer arrests him.

 

The Jackson character's last words in the parody?

 

"I must be black."

Yes you are. This requires at least 4 viewings for full effect.

I'm sitting here watching VH1 Classic because of this thread. :wub:

 

One more for the list: "You Got Lucky" by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. The video barely seems to fit the lyrics at all, but it's absolutely perfect for the music.

 

And another: "Bad To The Bone" by George Thorogood and the Destroyers. The pool hall is just an inspired setting. And when the ball hangs on the lip of the pocket and drops -- "Whoo! Bad to the bone." ;)
