1.) a-ha, Take On Me. They were my first "boy band" before discovering Depeche Mode. I had an entire wall enshrined in teeny bopper magazine clippings of a-ha, Phil Collins, and ::::hides head in shame:::: David Hasselhoff of Knight Rider fame.

2.) Depeche Mode, Walking in my shoes. They won MAJOR kudos from this history buff by doing a video with Medieval plauge-repellent bird masks. Ah, heck, ANY video by Depeche Mode is amazingly seductive, decadent and just a bit naughty.

3.) Peter Gabriel, Sledgehammer and Big Time. I can't stop myself. I just have to sit there and watch the whole thing, blinking as little as possible, even though I've seen it a thousand times before. Transfixing.

4.) Tears for Fears, (Sowing the) Seeds of Love. Not only a great song, but the video is absolutely gorgeous. Makes me think I was once a hippie, just 20 years too late.

5.) DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, Parents Just Don't Understand. The first rap I memorized in its entirity and thought the video was hilarious.
