The era of the music video has come and gone. Born in the 80's and laid to rest in the early 2000's. Sure most songs still get an accompanying video, but they are no longer topics of conversation. Points of interest. Make or break. We here at Song Of The Day Fridays raise our glasses to the era of the music video. We each picked 2 we felt were great. Rob...get us started please

Rob

a) Jamiroquai - "Virtual Insanity"



b) Kid n' Play - "Rap Battle"



Mr. T

a) David Lee Roth - "Just A Gigolo/Ain't Got Nobody"



b) Mungo Jerry - "In The Summertime"



G-Man

a) Queens Of The Stone Age - "Go With The Flow"

Love the monochromatic colour scheme. Love the way the imagery goes with the song. Love the sexual innuendo. Great vid!


b) UNKLE - "Rabbit In Your Headlights" feat. Thom Yorke

Just gonna let the video speak for itself...I couldn't find it on youtube...fuckssakes....so we'll have to go beyond our comfort zone to Vimeo

Rob

Thornley - "Make Believe"

G-Man

Gwar - "Immortal Corruptor"

Say what you will. This is one of my favourite songs and one of the best heavy metal songs ever written. I've got the pleasure to say i've experienced the live Gwar extravaganza and lived to tell about it. About time i've got some metal representation on this blog. Long Live Oderus!

Toby Keith - "As Good As I Once Was"
