A post I saw on Instagram this morning made me think about music videos and the ones that were so memorable and instantly recognizable. Many of us here will have grown up in the age of the music video and been avid MTV viewers.
My list of iconic music videos would go a little something like this (in no particular order:)
The Power of Love - Frankie Goes to Hollywood
Addicted to Love - Robert Palmer
Rio - Duran Duran
Wake Me Up Before You Go Go - Wham!
Take On Me - A-Ha
Here I Go Again - Whitesnake
(You Got It) The Right Stuff - New Kids on the Block
Physical - Olivia Newton-John
And that's just some of them! Which music videos do you think are iconic and what makes a music video so memorable?
I would definitely say anything by Prince. Everything about the man was iconic. He was a legend and there will never be another artist like him. If I had to pick just one Prince video it would have to be When Doves Cry.
