1. Reva DeVito and Roane Namuh - "Frozen" 2012  *Even though this came out last year, to me, it is the new hotness.





2. Common Sense - "Breaker 1, 9" 1992  *This is Common 21 years ago, he ages like wine.





3. Rhye - "The Fall" 2012  *Rhye is amazing.





4. Common - "Heat" 2000  *The guy at the beginning saying he's on the list looks a lot like Sabzi, just sayin'.





5. Leaders Of The New School - "Sobb Story" 1991  *Baby Busta, tandem bicycle, and 90's fashion choices.





6. Estelle featuring Sean Paul - "Come Over" 2008  *Estelle and Sean Paul thrown some of the classiest house parties. The version with out Sean Paul is much better, he's not even cute!





7. Ice Cube - "Friday" 1995  *No one is just chillin' at an Ice Cube party.





8. LL Cool J - "Jingling Baby" 1989  *You know it must be 1989 when LL Cool J uses a payphone.

Seven Music Videos featuring Leg Shots

Here's the full list + more on a YouTube playlist. #YouTubeNchill


1. Klymaxx - "The Men All Pause" 1984  They go to Fatburger in this video.




2. Kendrick Lamar - "Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe" 2012/2013  I think it's cute how he and Mike Epps make faces at each other in this video.




3. Estelle - "Wait A Minute [Just A Touch]" 2007  She is one of the least ridiculous lady music stars. Estelle was not just one single, her whole Shine album was great.






4. Nancy Sinatra - "These Boots Are Made For Walking" 1966  Nancy Sinatra's cool is timeless.




5. Love and Rockets - "So Alive" 1989  The leg as pendulum is my favorite.




6. Pillowfight - "Get Down" 2013  I got nothing but love for all parties involved but the song is more enjoyable without the sex sells type video.




7. Robert Palmer - "Addicted To Love" 1985  Robert Palmer may be King Of The Leg Shot videos...meaning of course that the Queens are the true royalty.

Ten Music Videos featuring Texts or Phone Calls

Here's the full list on a YouTube playlist.  #YouTubeNchill




1. Ghostpoet - "Meltdown" 2013 (UK HIP HOP)  *Let's assume she is receiving or sending a text when she checks her phone. I have a thing for this song which I found through the Pigeons and Planes website.




2. Wrecking Crew - "Scallops" 2013  I found this via email from Mello Music Group.




"Scallops" is on Wrecking Crew's Wu-Tang Pulp album.



3. Blue Scholars - "Fou Lee" 2011  *Geo gets a text on his way into the market, this video could have been in my upcoming shopping cart collection. I don't love this song, but, I appreciate what these guys have contributed to Seattle and Hip Hop in general.




4. Estelle - "No Substitute Love" 2008  She is pretty amazing.




5. Buggsy feat. Jehst and Farma G - "Connect The Spdif" 2011  (UK HIPHOP)  I love this Jehst verse and that they drink tea in this video. Jehst is wearing the black hat and his verse is first..




6. The Streets - "Blinded By The Lights" 2004  I think 2004 was right near the beginning of text messages. Even though it is kind of dark, this is my favorite Streets song.




7. Outkast - "Benz Or Beamer" 1995  From the soundtrack to New Jersey Drive.




8. Yeasayer - "Madder Red" 2010  This video stars Kristen Bell and a sad neglected puppet thing.


9. Somethin' For The People - "My Love Is The Shhh!" 1997  Telephone operator R and B girls.


10. Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti - "Round And Round" (Unofficial Video) 2010  This is awesome.

Ten Music Videos featuring Fur

1. Macklemore and Ryan Lewis - "Thrift Shop" 2012  *Congratulations to Macklemore and Ryan Lewis! You have already been able to help change the world for the better with your music. Seattle is very proud.



2. White Town - "Your Woman" 1997  *This is a near perfect late nineties song, I'm still not really sure what the song is about though.



3. Estelle feat. Kanye West - "American Boy" 2008  *This song is so great, Estelle overshadows Kanye, but they have good chemistry. The shots with Estelle's long shadow are awesome.



4. Jay-Z feat. Chrisette Michelle - "Lost One" 2006  *The lady's fur coat is the best in the ten. This is one of my favorite Jay-Z songs. Chrisette Michelle's incredible voice and female presence make the song.



5. The Human League - "Don't You Want Me" 1981  *She may have worked as a waitress in a cocktail bar, but now she works in film.



6. Moby feat. Gwen Stefani - "Southside" 1999  *This video also has flowers, chains, wind, unsafe convertible passengers, shiny things, shirtless males, singing into the camera shots, water, fire, and food. Whoa.



7. Mayer Hawthorne - "Henny and Ginger Ale" 2012  *This is one of the best commercials I have ever seen.



8. Digital Underground - "The Humpty Dance" 1990  *At least they edited it with interesting sounds.

 
 
9. Neneh Cherry and The Thing - "Accordian" (Madvillain Cover) 2012  *I feel like I should like this because it is an MF Doom/Madvillain cover. It makes me feel like I am not hip enough to understand its greatness, but, I think it sucks. It is still My Definition Of Cool because it was filmed in complete darkness with night vision and because it is Madvillain related. Sorry Neneh :(
 
 
 
10. John Lennon - "Jealous Guy" 1971  *I love that they went on a boat ride wearing really great outfits.
 
 
 
 
***Conclusion: videos featuring fur are some of the best videos.
