greatest music videos from the 80s

[spidey]

well clasic ones all the michael jackson videos from the 1980's even captain EO which you can watch on youtube directed by coppala and produced by lucas.

but classic one is take on me. by A-HA... PK knows.

In fact I thin VH1 had 100 greatest 80's videos on in the past and i think that might have won or been in the top 5.

This was a classic,,,,it has girls in chains, kickstart Harley's and real people. Probably low budget at the time, but I always like the bikers kind of dancing behind John.

I like how they try to hide the camera by wrapping it in foil. Also, what's with him playing just one note on the keyboard?
