Ten More Music Videos featuring Special Effects

1. En Vogue - "Adventure" 1998  En Vogue does Sesame Street. They are teaching the kids to make up crazy stories that could never be true (in the nineties anyway).

2. Level 42 - "Something About You" 1986  This is one of those great eighties songs that I didn't know the artist until now.




3. Danny Brown - "Radio Song" 2012  There are tons of Danny Browns in this video. Even though he says some offensive shit sometimes, I still like him.




4. Bonobo - "Cirrus" 2013  This video starts off with some old footage and then develops into so much more.




5. Divine Styler - "Ain't Sayin' Nothin'" 1988  This video would have been a star in the rotating heads category, damn.

6. Bambu - "Lean" 2013  Usually people do their costume changes off-camera. He is one of the most likable dudes ever.

7. MC Lyte - "Cappucino" 1989  This is from before cappuccinos got huge.

8. Grizzly Bear - "Two Weeks" 2009  Their eyes are not blinking at the same time and they are blinking in slow motion, it is kind of freaking me out a little bit.

9. Wyclef Jean - "PJ's" 2002  This beat sounds the best when heard through real speakers.

10. Soundgarden - "Black Hole Sun" 1994  This video is kind of scary and painful, yet, I still like it.

Ten Music Videos featuring Trees

1. James Blake - "Overgrown" 2013  *James Blake at the Neptune Theater was the best concert I have ever seen. He is a true genius.

2. The Beatles - "Strawberry Fields Forever" 1967  *This video was way ahead of its time.

3. DTMD feat. Godly MC and Kev Brown - "Raw"  2012  *This song is all about the beat for me, it is one of the better releases from the Mello Music Group.

 

4. Little Dragon - "Twice" 2007  *This is a very slow moving song, I feel like it never gets to where it is trying to go. Little Dragon definitely improved since 2007.

5. Bonobo feat. Andreya Triana - "Eyesdown" 2010  *This dancing girl has a skull on her skull.  The song is great too.

 

 

 

6. Split Prophets (Blanka, Paro, Datkid, feat. Dee Green and DJ Rogue) - "The High Life" 2013 (UK HIP HOP)  *I watched this video a lot to figure out if I liked it, this leads me to believe that it is interesting even though the rappers aren't that good.

 

 

 

7. The Black Opera feat. Mayer Hawthorne - "Queen Of Hearts" 2013  *This song needs work, I feel like they tried to distract us from the poor quality by showing us a bearded Mayer Hawthorne.

 

 

 

8. Cutta Chase - "Meditate and Maintain" 2013 (UK HIP HOP)  *This doesn't suck, but, it's really not that great either.

 

 

9. Quelle Chris - "Milky" 2012  *This instrumental is pretty interesting, but still needs something. I rarely contemplate what songs are actually about until I find myself singing them aloud. I will likely never listen to this enough to figure out why he decided to call the track "Milky".

 

 

 

10. Bonobo feat. Grey Reverend - "First Fires" 2013  *This is definitely not a party jam, one must be in a Bonobo kind of mood to enjoy this music.

 

Ten Music Videos featuring Couches

1. Tyler, The Creator - "IFHY" 2013  I truly feel that Tyler is a super genius. The only thing that makes his age obvious (he is only 22) is the lyrical content of his music. He still thinks that he has to shock us, even though the world would probably pay attention even if he went in a less shocking direction.

 

2. Madvillain - "Rhinestone Cowboy" 2004  *I have a lot of respect for these guys (MF Doom and Madlib), but, I don't like this song or video that much. The applause within the song doesn't really do it for me.

3. M.E.D. - "Push" 2005  *J Dilla is on the couch, it looks like the Donuts cover is a still from this video @ 2:25.

 

 

 

 

 

4. Bonobo feat. Andreya Triana - "The Keeper" 2009  *The one-shot music video is slowly paced which accentuates the smoothness of the song. I like most of the songs I put on here, but this is one of the ones I actually listen to...a lot.

 

 

 

5. Curren$y - "Chandelier" 2012  *I don't really like this song as a whole. I do appreciate how he respectfully talks about his lady, this is one of those rappers that deserves to get chicks. That said, I have not listened to any of his other songs.

 

 

 

6. Otayo Dubb feat. Bambu - "A Lil More" 2012  *This video serves as a public service announcement for ladies warning them to bring their drinks into the restroom with them. I wouldn't listen to this song regularly, but, they seem like good guys making music that actually means something.

 

 

 

7. The XX - "Islands" 2010  *The band is working this couch.

 

 

8. MC Lyte feat. Xscape - "Keep On Keepin' On" 1996  *I believe pantsuit MC Lyte does say "sugar for my booger" @ 1:56. I just recently found this song and even starred it on Spotify.

 

 

 

9. Billy Idol - "Cradle Of Love" 1990  *This guy is kind of a woos, not Billy Idol of course because he is a total badass.

 

 

 

10. Rocky Rivera feat. Irie Eyez - "GRLZ" 2012  *These girls are fierce, I'm glad they make music.
