With the proliferation of music video clips – my mind can’t help but hark back to the very first screening of MTV when I was a teen and of course the now iconic “Video Killed The Radio Star” soundtrack by the Buggles.

Since then of course – up and coming performers have come and gone – but their music clips live on.

From Robert Palmer and his “Simply Irresistable” clip in the early 80’s through to Jamiroquai’s, “Virtual Insanity”, Radio Head’s “Just” and my personal favourite , Christopher Walken and Fat Boy Slim’s “Weapon of Choice”, there have been some absolute classics.

Sure – Michael Jackson went a ‘little’ over the top with “Thriller” – and Basement Jaxx might not be quite your cuppa tea – but you’ve gotta take your hat off to those who help visualize the airwaves.

But what have been the classics that have reverberated with you?

Perhaps Cher and the Missouri Battleship gun imagery thing lngers or even Olivia’s “Let’s Get Physical” piece of 80′s steam/cheese is one for the punters.

Shania Twain and her bevy of boyfolk or is there something just a little more creative and errr tasteful?
