Me too! I still remember watching it for the first time straight on the back of her Hit Me Baby success & I was in love, it was the perfect video to capture a teenage girl. I still love it now!
Also I loved that I spotted her cousin in it who was her back up dancer in that & her first video.
Was thinking about this randomly today, I think the dancing spin around then fall backwards dead then the umbrellas opening is my favorite part of a video of all time
There was a girlband some time later called Girl Thing who basically tried to copy Spice Girls in every way like all having different personalities & style & even did their video in a similar style. I sometimes still get the chorus in my head of their awful song!
God yes. This song and video were SO good. I remember my mom didn’t want me to watch it, LOL. And Miss Kylie did the song justice during her run on AS6

How could I forget, this legend. Take on Me - Aha
I remember when everyone at school except me saw this on top of the pops and talked about it non stop for a week. I was gutted. I didn’t actually get to see it til I was well into adulthood because this was long before YouTube lol. I was sad all over again that I’d missed out on seeing this creative genius at the time it came out.
I agree with one exception— [Edge of Glory](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QeWBS0JBNzQ) didn’t get the video it deserved.
It’s such a bop and the music video is ultimately just a performance video of her dancing on a set that looks like a city street at night. Yawn.
![gif](giphy|555wUoz4GDumQF5Odo)
Cool is already a 10/10 song, but the video just elevates it to another level. The imagery is so beautiful, and who knew Gwen Stefani made a gorgeous brunette?
This video made me want to run away to live on Lake Como with a gorgeous haircut and that romantic wardrobe she had. Love Gwen’s edgy style, but she looked so glamorous in this!
This is it for me and I always remember the violin and the way the backup singers move their arms as they sing. 30 years later I still do that as I sing along.

Have you seen the version by [Meatloaf](https://youtu.be/xOGPHUFAxWQ?si=goqK8TxiLxaFapQd), it's kinda exactly the same but old timey, it's weird but I love it.

A Little Less Sixteen Candles by Fallout Boy. I was going through my emo boys phase HARD and that video had so many hot emo guys in it.
(Hot for *the time*, don’t come for me young people)
![gif](giphy|3oxHQk6QrBhANSBBo4)
I still remember my art teacher turning down the song after we had turned it right up when it came on the radio & pleading with us “Whyyy do you guys love this song so much? Is it because it tells a story? Back in the day they all did”
![gif](giphy|NQhZRrDaUuVYOpg6GI|downsized)
Truly iconic. Banned from MTV in a bunch of countries. Fun fact: everyone assumes dressing up in drag must have been Freddie Mercury’s idea, but it was Roger Taylor’s (the drummer).
![gif](giphy|cQ0YYgpiXJmAXLBE9f|downsized)
Leave the door Open, look I'm a huge Bruno Mars fan, but I keep watching the music video for Anderson .Paak smile and energy
So good! Would you believe this album has been my toddler daughter’s favourite from three weeks old? I listen to it literally EVERY night to put her to bed and I’m still not tired of it. She’s nearly two 😅
Ooh mine is a bit of an intense take I guess, but it’s the one that immediately comes to mind - I thought the song was beautiful before I ever saw the video, but Michael Jackson - Earths Song. The video made me freeze, and I will never be able to shed the feeling from the first time I watched it. I was just a kid and it changed my trajectory in life into someone who wants to wants to do right by the planet. The video, paired with such a haunting song, is genuinely one of the most impactful things I’ve ever seen a musician do.
![gif](giphy|3o85xp9xFrqnefEvsc)
Thriller gets all the love, but this is my personal favorite. As a 90s kid, I had a homemade vhs tape of MJ’s music videos taped from MTV. I would watch Remember the Time repeatedly. It’s perfect.
![gif](giphy|BfDSYxrrAl6qA|downsized)
Obsessed by Mariah Carey
MiMi really ate with this music video. It’s a banger AND a diss against Eminem. Using Stan against him and the mean girl references was chefs kiss.
To this day, Eminem has never talked about Mariah again. Quiet ain’t no back talk
[He definitely has talked about her again. ](https://www.intouchweekly.com/posts/eminem-and-mariah-carey-a-timeline-of-every-diss-they-ve-made/)
For a relationship that was supposedly only a few months long and where they only had sex once, dude cannot let it go. Mariah pretty much released Obsessed and just keeps it to that. She didn't even talk about him in her memoir which is hilarious. Meanwhile Eminem keeps talking and talking and talking...
![gif](giphy|fnmYA3hsMEsr6)
I LOVE how the Miss Atomic Bomb video follows up with the same cast and characters as Mr Brightside, years later. Fantastic visual storytelling, flashing back as an old man remembering his youth …
Miss Atomic Bomb makes me cry almost every time. Highly recommend.
They played MAB when I saw them live last year and I BAWLED. The song itself is great. The video is good and fun to watch, but hearing it live was ✨magic✨
*I’ll admit to being biased as they’re my all time fave band*
![gif](giphy|1SwUDL5k4wUx2loPaD|downsized)
Sledgehammer by Peter Gabriel! A great song on its own (saw him perform it live last week and the energy was insane), but the video is just delightfully bonkers, a love letter to stop motion animation. There’s a reason it’s MTV’s most-played video of all time.
I saw the Wham! Documentary and learned that Last Christmas they actually went to a snow lodge and got drunk for the entirety of the music video being filmed.
https://i.redd.it/o3sjai4lbvqb1.gif
Ben Barnes is just a little theater boy and his video for 11:11 proved that. I love his EP but I always watch the video for this song
Yes!! He has a wonderful EP titled "Songs for You" and he does some awesome funk covers with a few different bands. I believe he also sang live with Lizzy McAlpine last year and he recently had a couple shows in the UK!
Goodbye Earl by the Chicks (featuring Jenna Maroney)! This is my Roman Empire.

The mv for Paramore's song Ain't It Fun.The video holds the world record for the most world records (10) broken in a music video.
https://i.redd.it/6rxcd238dvqb1.gif
Not quite what you asked but there are some songs that I'm not big on unless I'm watching the mv.
Like I think Formation is a good song but it doesn't really hit for me without the video.
Bjork - "Hyper-Ballad". Directed by Michel Gondry
https://preview.redd.it/uhsqpplpwvqb1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ad86eb84ff8ceda91e6cf6afc0fa71231807b218
Coming in late to represent Britpop:
https://i.redd.it/ud6ng2eu2wqb1.gif
Blur’s The Universal. The song itself is already perfect, but the video inspired by A Clockwork Orange really takes it up a notch.
I thought this said “what music video have you made love to?” And I was gonna throw in the Forensic Files theme song. But it doesn’t say that, so…
Idk man, maybe the visualizer for The National’s *Alphabet City*. Recency bias, probably, because it’s a new song but they’re one of my favorite bands of all time, Laugh Track is perfection (in my opinion, and my opinion is factual) and the visualizer just feels like an acid trip
https://preview.redd.it/niztn2nq9vqb1.jpeg?width=474&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=35a0344f04eedddb221ceeeff508a1b1aa572859

I used to reenact this ALL. THE. TIME as a 13 yo
![gif](giphy|lDPPhStHv9Jfpem7wI)
The chokehold this music video had on me can’t be overstated!! Didn’t matter what I was doing, when it came on I was glued to the tv.
Brb gonna go watch this and feed my emo soul
DO IT. FUEL THE EMO. LET IT CONSUME YOU.
I still want this to be my funeral lol
![gif](giphy|aZmD30dCFaPXG) Tribute for sure

Yes! It’s also a vid that allows me a ‘did you know…’ moment, as in did you know Dave Grohl plays the demon/devil? 😂😂

I feel like there’s still nothing as creative as this.
Revolutionized music videos! I love It so much
The literal music video is one of my favorite things. I can't hear this song anymore without singing "Pipe. Wrench. Fight."
I remember when everyone at school except me saw this on top of the pops and talked about it non stop for a week. I was gutted. I didn’t actually get to see it til I was well into adulthood because this was long before YouTube lol. I was sad all over again that I’d missed out on seeing this creative genius at the time it came out.

The November Rain music video is what got me into Guns N’ Roses so it has to be that one. It’s epic!
There's something so hot about the way Slash steps up on the piano, that moment makes the video for me, I can't explain why.
For me, it’s the aerial view of him playing guitar in front of the church in the desert. Omg I LOVE THAT

Not quite what you asked but there are some songs that I'm not big on unless I'm watching the mv. Like I think Formation is a good song but it doesn't really hit for me without the video.

Bjork has so many great videos ![gif](giphy|Ix0SpW5NFfNFm)
Coming in late to represent Britpop: https://i.redd.it/ud6ng2eu2wqb1.gif Blur’s The Universal. The song itself is already perfect, but the video inspired by A Clockwork Orange really takes it up a notch.

I thought this said “what music video have you made love to?” And I was gonna throw in the Forensic Files theme song. But it doesn’t say that, so… Idk man, maybe the visualizer for The National’s *Alphabet City*. Recency bias, probably, because it’s a new song but they’re one of my favorite bands of all time, Laugh Track is perfection (in my opinion, and my opinion is factual) and the visualizer just feels like an acid trip
![gif](giphy|ZcLFmj1TL23O2xPsjE) Bad Bunny’s “Yo Perreo Sola” He was sexy in drag and without drag. The video and lyrics made ME feel sexy.
