My Favorite 2007 Videos

I came across the Rolling Stone readers list of the top videos of the year, and I decided to make my own list. I stole some from there, but there were others that I found entertaining that were not included. I still like videos and wish there was a music channel that played them on cable! Alas, I have to come to the intarweb to find videos. Thank god for YouTube. These are cool songs that also feature cool videos.

Artist: Bat For Lashes
Song: What’s a Girl To Do?

I love the space trancy singing and the crazy animal heads riding bikes.

Song: Don’t You Evah

This is not the official video for the band, but they are in the video and it features the cute Keepon yellow guy!

Song: The Underdog

I’ll also include their actual video that came out this year. It was all shot with one take so it is pretty cool.

Artist: Feist
Song: 1234

Very colorful and the wacky choreography hypnotizes me every time….or maybe it is the bright colors.

Artist: Feist
Song: My Moon, My Man

My favorite song off her last album. The video also features interesting choreography that you can duplicate on an airport moving sidewalk!

Not the most exciting video, but I do love the song.

Artist: Bloc Party
Song: The Prayer

Looks like a normal club dancing video, but everything starts getting more and more distorted as it goes along. Also, the girl with the short blonde hair does some freaky dancing.

Artist: Goldfrapp
Song: Ride a White Horse

Alison Goldfrapp looks all shiny, clean and nice, but she’s surrounded by some nasty looking food and other dirty items, including the toilet paper stuck to her high heels.

Artist: Klaxons
Song: Golden Skans

Love this song and also the album it comes from. I got it months and months ago, but I’ve been listening to it pretty non-stop lately. Anyway, the video features the band in colorful duct tape doing kung fu on long tubes of light.
