100 Greatest Hits - Part 4

*NOT ALL 100 WILL BE LISTED*

49 - Jamiroquai - Virtual Insanity - 1996. This video dominated the awards as it collected Best Video, Cinematography and Breakthrough. After watching the video again the awards were well deserved. The trick shots in the video worked well.

47 - Adam and the Ants - Price Charming - 1961. I have heard the song but not seen the video. To be honest I was happy just listening to the song. I can see that directors, producers especially costume and make-up had a lot to do with the making of the video. I wasn't shocked to hear that the video cost £30,000.

42 - Bjork - Its All So Quite. I remember when I used to dance to this song and perform as though I was on stage. Only to find out that the track was a celebration of all musicals. I wasn't a fan of the video.

35 - Sinead O'Conner - Nothing Compares To You - 1995. How ironic as I type this up I'm listening to the track on Magic FM. When I first heard this track I was actually listening to Magic. I was inspired by her voice so when I got home I watched the video and read the lyrics of the song. Although there is no dancing in this video it has captured many audiences. This is mainly due to the close up of Sinead crying. I later find out that Sinead was emotional after think about her late mother during the filming of the video. This deserves a spot on the countdown.

31 - Emienen - Stan - 200. This video followed one of Eminen fans road to death. It also introduces Dido the featuring singer as well as character in the video. Both the video and lyrics go well together and tell a story.

29 - Electric Six with there contriversal track Gay Bar (2003). The video reflects the sexuality of the once president of the United States Abreham Lincon.

26 - TLC - Waterfalls followed the dangers of unsafe sex. However in 3d special effects.
