Top 100 Music Videos, #30 - 21



Christopher Walken: Redefining 'Dancing With the Stars.'


We're getting to the business end of our countdown boys and girls. After today we've hit the Top 20 and there will only be two posts to go! What exciting, intriguing, spectacular, amazing videos do we have waiting for us today? Let's find out...

#30 - Everlong (1997)

by Foo Fighters

Foo fighters - Everlong by radatdailymotion

Michel Gondry is known for his surreal and unique music videos, making a name for himself with his work for The White Stripes, Bjork, Massive Attack and Radiohead (to name but a few of his collaborations). I should have known that he was the man behind the video for 'Everlong' but never did until "research" was conducted for this countdown. You know when I say research, I mean Wikipedia, right? Good. Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised to discover Gondry was the force behind 'Everlong,' the greatest video in the Foo Fighters catalogue. Grohl and Co. have given us some quality characters in comedy videos like 'Learn To Fly' and 'Long Road to Ruin,' but none can compare to those we see in 'Everlong.' Taylor Hawkins seems destined to drag it up for at least one song per album and let's just say I'm all for it. What? P.s. this isn't the last you've seen of Mr Michel Gondry...

Best Moment: I love how the bed explodes into Hawkins' drum kit towards the end!

Countdown: Women Who Rock - #11, Alison Mosshart

#11 - Alison Mosshart

of The Kills

and The Dead Weather

Taking the final spot before the (I'm sure) much anticipated top 10, it's Alison Mosshart! She's been everywhere over the last couple of years with her own work as part of rock duo The Kills, featuring on songs with Placebo, Arctic Monkeys, Primal Scream and The Last Shadow Puppets and of course as the female lead in Jack White's supergroup The Dead Weather.

Alison is slowly creeping into the mainstream consciousness and new albums from The Dead Weather and The Kills should only catapult her to rock superstar levels of fame. Not just a pretty face, Mosshart is a talented songwriter in her own right, even co-writing 8 tracks on The Dead Weather's debut Horehound.

Her voice is versatile, it can be quite sweet or extremely harsh and fits in nicely with different genres. If you're a country fan, check out the fantastic cover The Kills did of Patsy Cline's 'Crazy.' Outstanding.

Key Tracks: 'Fuck the People' (Keep on Your Mean Side), 'Love is a Deserter' and 'No Wow' (No Wow), 'Cheap and Cheerful' 'U R A Fever' and 'Black Balloon' (Midnight Boom), 'Are Friends Electric,' 'Treat Me Like Your Mother' and 'Hang You From the Heavens' (Horehound).
