10 Best Music Videos Of All Time

While grooving to music tracks on the go and thriving on new and upcoming music apps is the ongoing trend, music lovers still long for captivating music videos. Here’s a look at the 20 best music videos of all time.

10.  The White Stripes- Fell In Love With A Girl

Before Lego movies transformed the big screen, Fell In Love With A Girl was the perfect mesh of audio and visual wonderment with complete Lego animation. The White Stripes are probably the most underrated band of this generation as the only thing wrong with the video was that there wasn’t enough of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTH71AAxXmM

9. The Red Hot Chili Peppers- Under The Bridge

Take a Punk Rock 90s band, a two-time Oscar nominated director, a song about drug addiction and you have the perfect music video to take the audience to a fantastic and melodious utopia. The song not only touches you but one feels as if they’ve known the four guys all along. This song made The Red Hot Chili Peppers a household name. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwlogyj7nFE

8. Meghan Trainor- All About The Bass

Meghan Trainor twerking to “I’m bringing booty back” and girls following suit is what defined 2014. The minimalist pink setup, all sizes inclusive dance group and a peppy song with a social message makes All About That Bass difficult to forget. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PCkvCPvDXk

7. Spice Girls- Wannabe

Even before ‘bros before hoes’ became every boy group’s motto the Spice Girls epitomised the sisterhood of the chic girl gang. The unbelievably catchy song is a modern classic as one can still remember the Spice Girls tour the city at night and go club hopping while making sure everyone knows what they really really want! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJLIiF15wjQ

6. Aerosmith- Cryin’

Aerosmith’s Cryin’ not only smashed the charts but inspired numerous films and TV series. Alicia Silverstone who landed her role in Clueless owing to Cryin’ plays a teenager who breaks up with her boyfriend because of his adultery goes on a thrilling and rebellious streak of self recovery. Remember how belly piercing became a trend after 2009? We have to thank Cryin’ for that! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfNmyxV2Ncw

5.  Metallica- One

No music video list is complete without mentioning Metallica. The band’s first song was out of this world as the band performed scenes from the 1971 film Johnny Got His Gun. The antiwar song increases your heartbeat with not just the audio but also the video that entails the story of a World War 1 soldier. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WM8bTdBs-cw

4. Beyonce- All The Single Ladies

Beyonce’s thunder thighs doing unimaginable moves in the black and white video song while urging the boys to not be too late is everything one could ask for. The song reached such popularity that Liza Minelli grooved to Queen B’s tunes in Sex and The City 2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4m1EFMoRFvY

3. Nirvana- Smells Like Teen Spirit

Kurt Cobain screeching in the shady and murky garage started the “grunge” movement. The angst and punk filled song managed to instigate the audience and yet find a place in their hearts. Smells Like Teen Spirit did that to the music industry what Pulp Fiction did to cinema. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTWKbfoikeg

2. Michael Jackson- Black or White

A frustrated kid, dance, hip-hop and hard rock make Black or White unforgettable. MJ has sure delivered iconic singles like Thriller and Dangerous but Black or White mirrored popular culture. Moreover, spotting MJ dance alongside a Bharatnatyam dancer increased our heart rates! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2AitTPI5U0

1. Shakira- Hips Don’t Lie

The 2006 song is responsible for all the belly dancing and waist twirling moves we see today. Shakira in her orange skirt twirling to the beats is unforgettable and one can’t hum the song without at least tapping the feet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUT5rEU6pqM
