Always fun to see one of La Gaga's video's again. My god, the production must have cost a lot

I've always really liked the Fatboy Slim and Kylie Minogue video. They're both kind of gimmicky but a LOT of fun!

Right?? Gimmicky doesn't have to be a synonym for bad. :)

Loved the selection and great to see Kylie in the list. I’m memorised by that video too. Off the same album, I think Love at First Sight has a great video!

Love at First Sight was in the running on the initial long list. I had to do at least one of her videos. Thanks for reading Sarah :)

Some fantastic choices, namely "Honey" – Erykah Badu and "Weapon of Choice" – Fatboy Slim.

Michel Gondry was on fire during this period and I always thought Steriogram's "Walkie Talkie Man" was a really clever video masterfully directed. https://youtu.be/I7UvbwCjXUk?si=-tp-cQFACZ6wM60T

The Stan video is as gut-wrenching as it is iconic.

More artistic than fun but how about Radiohead’s “Everything in its Right Place”. This video will make you feel something but, again, not fun.
