Louis XIV - Air Traffic Control (watch)
Flying on planes and hanging off hot air balloons never looked so good in paper. If only we could really do such things…This video is a cool watch with a mellow feel that really gets your imagination going. Watch it, I’m sure you’ll agree.

The Cool Kids - Black Mags (watch)
Suddenly I feel like riding my bike. This video takes me back to the days growing up when the only thing you’d do in the summer was ride your bike all day…unfortunately, my bike wasn’t ‘low-rider cool’ like The Cool Kids.

Death Cab For Cutie - I Will Possess Your Heart (watch)
If a guy ever wrote a song like this for me, I would let him possess my heart. If I didn’t, it would just be a handful of sick with a dash of wrong. I almost felt a little creepy being given the point of view of following this unsuspecting girl around. But still, it’s a cool video.

Natasha Bedingfield - Pocketful Of Sunshine (watch)
I love this one! This is such a feel-good music video. Countless times I’ve only dreamed of jumping out of the window at work to parachute my way down into a choreographed dance sequence on a rooftop. Oh, and let’s not even talk about floating on a flower! Natasha Bedingfield, you are my hero.

Creature - Pop Culture (watch)
While I should dislike this video because it reminds me of my Catholic school uniform days mixed with memories of embarrassing dance recitals, I quite like it. Perhaps it’s the way that everything is in sync and perfectly neat that it satisfies my OCD.

B52’s - Funplex (watch)
Seriously, who isn’t going to like a video with the word ‘fun’ in it? (All you Debbie Downers, please put your hands down) Now imagine intergalactic escalators, dancing policemen and general chaos and you have “Funplex”. If you’ve ever imagined what it would be like to party it up in a mall, this is the video for you. The B52’s always have such cool videos and it’s awesome to see that nothing’s changed.
