Top 10 MTV Best Video Moon Mans

Back in the glory retro days of the music vs. video struggles, MTV played the biggest role in presenting some of the best music videos that stood out as works of art in time. VMA has so far announced 26 videos (from 1984 to 2009) as best videos of the year. Here are my top 10 favorite best video moon mans. And may we not see this trophy in the hands of another whore next year cause there’s a lot of these sluts on the winners list jerking around and it’s a shame. And after all, ain’t music videos supposed to be about art direction? Where do masterpieces like Foo Fighters “Everlong”, White Stripes “Fell In Love With A Girl”, Johnny Cash’s “Hurt”, Nine Inch Nails’ “We’re In This Together”, Air’s “Playground Love” or Chemical Brothers’ “Star Guitar” exactly fit? Lady Gaga???
