SaintRigger Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Heyas - Always wanted to start a thread where we share classic music videos and the like. This one is for classic and retro videos from the 70's and 80's (and 90's too I guess) I'll kick it off To start is the classic Buggles - "Video Killed the Radio Star" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LB6Q_oycfQ Then the 1979 "Pop Music" from M http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_ElJ86ziWU Next up is some Thomas Dolby with the ever popular "She Blinded me with Science" - Although some of my favorites by him are "One of our Submarines is missing" and "Europa and the Pirate Twins" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IlHgbOWj4o http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-A3NLbvZ2Ko http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wu2UzmS5qtY Talk Talk - "It's My Life" and "Talk Talk" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvAVJTQeFiQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2a_oUb2lyEc Then there is Men at Work - "Down Under" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNT7uZf7lew and Men Without Hats "Safety Dance" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcOZ6xFxJqg That is it for now - I think the next post will be Dark Wave and early goth and stuff. Lemme know what you think and what you guys like :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Wehrmacht Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 This is my particular favorite. I also believe it is the single most viewed video on Youtube, at approximately 59 MILLION!! views. The Evolution of Dance Particularly disturbing is the thought that Ive seen so many of these... either way a staggeringly talented dude, if only for the idea.

daHob Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 How about some old 'gay pirate' phase Adam Ant? Stand and Deliver! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintRigger Posted October 5, 2007 Author Share Posted October 5, 2007 Indeed a classic! I was going to paint some swashbucklers up as Adam, actually :) It isn't an authentic video - but it still makes me giggle and is one of my favorite Adam Ant songs "Beat my guest" - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Administrators kit Posted October 7, 2007 Super Administrators Share Posted October 7, 2007 There's a pretty good remix of it out there, but the original is definitely the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lars Porsenna Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Since I can't follow the crowd: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNqlikchzAk Well, its a classic to me (as in, I've been looking for this one for a long, long time!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MTq4I0hvq8 Damon.

tanker22 Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Well, this isnt retro but its more my speed. Wish it was clearer though, there's a echo or something in it. Much better on CD. This girl has an awsome voice but this copy of the song doesn't do her credit at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This girl has an awsome voice but this copy of the song doesnt do her credit at all Lacuna Coil reminds me of Evanescence in terms of the style (which for me is a good thing since I like Evanescence). I'll probably be checking more of their stuff out. For an 80s classic (that is virtually unknown on this side of the Atlantic), check out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
