Sexiest pop videos

[ajva]

I've got a new project: making a list of my top 10 sexiest pop videos, but the top 10 has to be of the song/video combination rather than just either the video or song per se. I want to take some time over it, to get a comprehensive answer, and to this end, I'm asking you for your suggestions. I'd like a good spread of styles, so I'm happy to be introduced to new things to consider. Examples from my current longlist include Stand and Deliver by Adam and the Ants, Queer by Garbage and Justify My Love by Madonna. Those are all pretty mainstream, which is why I'm giving them as examples, as most people will have heard of them - so just to give you an idea of what I mean by the importance of the marriage of song and video. I need many more and varied ones to come up with a good top 10, though: at least a good 50 or so, I would have thought, to make a fair decision. Of course, it will still end up being my taste, but I'd be grateful for some assistance.

And I'll probably need a couple of months to make my final decision. So stay tuned! The final list will have reasons attached. :o)

No Doubt - Don't Speak, but that might just be me. It's the contrast between her wandering around looking demure and then being all sweaty and rock-god on stage.

Interesting list compilation idea. I can think of songs that I find extremely sexy, like NIN "Closer" but the video just isn't sexy (to me).

Kate Gibson's cover of "Dance Me to the End of Love "I find sexy but no video.

Will ponder more.

Aha - Take on Me

Though I must add that I wall papered my bedroom (ceiling included) with pictures of Morten Harket so it might just be me!

I do very much love the Madonna video you mention.

Also - "All is love" by Bjork.

Tristan - Patrick Wolf (Stick with it.)
