This will be a personal weekly Top Ten list of what I consider to be the best videos currently available on TV. I don’t, as a rule, go searching for old music videos, so that’s why it will focus mostly on current or recent videos. For this category, I am also going to include any live performances on talk or variety shows that I see during the week.

1) “Pontoon”—It’s probably just me, but I get a kick out of the mini snare drum that the drummer is playing on!
2) “The Wind”—The robot in the Zac Brown Band’s video has a variable seed drill as a finger. Man that could come in handy!
3) “50 Ways to Say Goodbye”—I like the mariachi feel to the song and I’m glad someone was smart enough to put them in the video!
4) “Wide Awake”—I still enjoy seeing the hypnotic eyes in that topiary cat!
5) “Over”—Blake Shelton’s song is strong and pulls the video up even higher!
6) “Little Talks”—Alright! I decided to look up the lyrics to Of Monsters and Men’s song and the lyrics are creepy, too, so they match the video. They also seem to have a positive leaning, so I feel better now. …..
7) “She’s So Mean”—Matchbox 20 reappear after many years away from the music business and Rob Thomas has a nasty girlfriend in this video. I mean, she “scratched his records!!!” Well, now. That’s the worst kind of mean!
8) “One More Night”—Well, I am stunned! Maroon 5 with Adam Levine starring as a boxer, have put together their own little updated version of “Raging Bull”…and it’s really good!!!!
9) “Whistle”—Flo Rida put together a hot summer video with a very catchy song!
10) “(Kissed You) Good Night”—Another week on the list for Gloriana…..
