my newest guilty pleasure or maybe better titled as 'a way to waste time at work'... (old myspace blog re-posted here)
here I present a pleasant distraction for your mind. Mindless entertainment if you will. Pitchfork Media has recently posted their list of 100 Amazing Music Videos including each individual video from youtube.com for your viewing pleasure. The videos were chosen for various reasons (because they're so good, because they're so bad, because they feature the Jacksons imagining themselves as gigantic golden gods sprinkling gold dust on humanity, etc.) and there is no winner (they are listed alphabetically) but I highly recommend you check it out! For the sheer campy and cheesy factor, this list has become my new guilty pleasure.
This list offers something for everyone; you will not be disappointed! From the Super Bowl Shuffle to Snoop Doggy Dogg, from Lionel Richie to Ludacris, from the Chemical Brothers to Cyndi Lauper, this list covers a wide range of guilty pleasures and nostalgic sentiments. Watch Busta Rhymes rock a yellow top hat while rapping, David Hasselhof fly with angels and puppies around a lake, Andre 3000 run away from a horde of over-caffienated fourth-graders over a field of purple grass, Jay Z rock out on a yacht with a hundred scantily clad women drinking Cristal, or DAngelo (almost) naked for three minutes. Meet Bone Thugs N Harmony at the Crossroads, play air keyboard with Journey, Relax with Frankie Goes to Hollywood, or simply refuse to take it anymore with Twisted Sister. My personal favorite music video for the past few years, Move Your Feet by Junior Senior, made the cut making me fall in love with this list even more.
However, if I was to announce one winner, list one recommendation, I choose: Sex Over the Phone by the Village People. This video is not only 80s-tastic, the lyrics are blunt and crude making it the icing on the cake for this video. The cherry on top? They have a choreographed routine to dancing with red plastic telephones. Check out the 100 Awesome Music Video list here.
My only disappointment in the list: a dancing Christopher Walken for Fat Boy Slim wasnt included and I feel that is an injustice. Because of this, I am including this particular video for your pleasure rounding out the list to a cool 101.
