Top ten greatest music video:
At number 10 it's Nirvana with It smells like teen Spirit. Number 9 was madonna with Vogue, The Verve with Bittersweet Symphony at 8 and at 7 it was Michael Jackson with Billie Jean. This was the song that really launched his career, and it was on top of the US charts for 9 weeks. Robbie Williams was at 6 with Rock DJ, and it was considered controversial as he was inappropriately dressed. At number 5 it was Madonna again with Like a Prayer. This was very controversial as it shows Madonna making love with a black Jesus. It also cost a lot of money and Pepsi withdrew their sponsorship after all the talk. Queen were at number 4 with Bohemian Rhapsody which was at number 1 for 9 weeks in the charts. It took them 3 hours 30 minutes to shoot the video. A-ha were at 3 with Take on Me which used very clever technology but it did take three months to create. The song was out but with no video and it sank through but they re-released it again with a video and it went to number 1 in the US. It took 1400 drawings to create the whole video. At number 2 it was Peter Gabriel with Sledgehammer. This video used very hi-tec technology which created something that was unseen. Finally the greatest music video is by Michael Jackson with Thriller. This video is great because it used a huge production team and it was pretty lengthy too. Michael saw the film 'American Werewolf in Lond' and he wanted to incorporate the idea into his video. It used the most props ever in that time and was a staggering 15 minutes long. It sold 50 million records world wide. It was so good channels had to re-schedual and put the music video so people can see.
