"These Dreams", by Heart
Ann had the prettiest voice, and colorful video.
Review by: Olivia Smith
"Your Love", by The Outfield
Very simplistic, one band surrounded by paintings.
Review by: Olivia Smith
"I Believe", by Tears For Fears
A fitting tribute to ex-Soft Machine drummer Robert Wyatt who fell out of hotel room window after he went on a drinking binge.

The liner notes of the Songs From The Big Chair album say "To Robert Wyatt if he's listening."

"Mary's Prayer", by Danny Wilson
Really Lovely Song!

"Mad World", by Tears For Fears
I loved watching this video when I was a kid even though I didn't quite understand the song. There was something about Roland Orzabal's free style dancing in the middle of this video that made me happy to see it.

"Out Of The Darkness", by Little Steven And The Disiples Of soul
Little Steven and his song "Out Of The Darkness", means a lot for me. In a period of my life after i was separated from me sons mom, i was addicted to drugs and thinking a lot at suicide. But when i not could see any light in the end of the tunnel, i listing at his song time after time. So at many ways i feel this song have help through the hardest period of my life. If any that read this and that have or know others that have the video of this song, i had be very grateful if someone could send it to me. My msn adress is: deja_vu_de_la_angel@msn.com and my yahoo adress is: haraldjohansen@yahoo.no . Anyway,Thanks to Little Steven.

"Allentown", by Billy Joel
A very heartfelt song that depicts the demise of the steel industries (and their respective towns) particularly in Pennsylvania. Joel is seen playing a guitar and singing amongst the remains of an abandoned town with inter-cuts of simulated mining scenes and other events that took place. One cannot watch the video and feel some of the pain that the people in these places had to endure. This is one of Joel's best.

"Shout", by Tears For Fears
This song was the first one that I heard on AC radio when I was growing up in Toronto. Roland and Curt both have such magnificent voices and I had such a crush on Roland that it wasn't even funny.

"Shout", by Tears For Fears
It's just a visually stunning music video. Someone told me that part of the video was filmed in the Isle of Wight. Roland and Curt chose the perfect background to film their music video.

"Mad About You", by Belinda Carlisle
I like her dancing and singing her song at the beach.
Review by: Cody Finke
"Show Must Go On", by Queen
A heart wrenching reminiscence of past videos and performances of queen -featuring Freddie Mercury. This video is done in memorial style -posthumously honoring Mercury. The powerful song and sentimental lyrics serve as a memorable if not tearful reminder of what could have been.

"I'll Be Over You", by Toto
A very sentimental love song sets the tone for a video featuring the band and Michael McDonald on a building rooftop. By the song's end the beautiful sunset is replaced by a downpour of rain that has the band running for cover -including the late Jeff Porcaro using his high hat as an umbrella.

"Wild Side", by Motley Crue
Shows Motley at its best...and I love it when Nikki Sixx smiles at the camera ;) so cute!
Review by: Brook
"Straight up", by Paula Abdul
Excited for this song
Review by: Jessica
"Every Breath You Take", by The Police
Great song. But the one thing I don't like is that at the beginning and the end there is an ash try, first with one cigarette and at the end, about a dozen. Why would they put something so negative into a music video for such a great song? And by the way, it's not because "Sting smokes" because he defiantly doesn't.

"mayor of simpleton", by xtc
I loved this song and the group.
Review by: erica
"Velcro Fly", by ZZ Top
Trademark beards, raw guitars and pretty girls are always a part of almost every ZZ Top video, this one is no exception. However, a nice drum beat is the backbone of this song. The trio of Gibbons, Hill and Beard put on their best dance moves here. Of course the shapely girls are the main feature amidst a backdrop of hieroglyphics. The Paula Abdul choreography rocks!

"That's All", by Genesis
Wonderful tune off the 1983 self-titled album has Banks, Collins and Rutherford living in the back alleys as street people. A simple but well done video that never over dramatizes or makes fun of those without a home.
Review by: GeneratorX
"Stranger in Town", by Toto
This very dark, black and white video based on the 1961 film "Whistle Down the Wind" features Brad Dourif as a wanted man being hunted by the police. While trying to escape he finds temporary refuge in a barn and is mistaken for Jesus Christ by some of the small children. Dourif is asked to read a bit from the Bible as the kids gather to listen, and while doing so he is captured by the police. This is Toto's best video. Dourif is great, his expressions and body language are more than enough to understand the storyline; this along with Toto's haunting score creates more of a film short rather than a music video. Awesome directing and editing makes this one of the best produced music videos.

"Shadows of the Night", by Pat Benatar
Well done WWII themed video features Benatar as a factory worker daydreaming about leading a small air mission into Nazi territory and blowing up the headquarters. There are also small appearances by Judge Reinhold as an American pilot and Bill Paxton as a Nazi soldier.
