All up to date now (for the next 45 minutes!)
Beyonce - Naughty Girl again
Britney again
Natasha Bedingfield again
It is a little unfortunate that the singer of Franz Ferdinand has all the visual charisma of Alex from Blur: fine in little doses, not great for three and a half minutes. It doesn't help that the director of the video for Matinee - a fine spiky song about how life's never as good except when staring at the silver screen - has spotted the school-era of the song and gone craaazy with any idea they've ever had about public schools.
Spiller Feat Sophie Ellis Bextor again
Sugababes - In The Middle again
Keane again
Maroon 5 - This Love again
Usher again
Janet Jackson again
It says something about the standard of the arts these days that I'm not certain whether the video for Superman Lovers' Starlight is incredibly ugly CGI or an incredibly ugly example of a more conventional art - claymation perhaps, or puppetry. The track itself is french house in a sub-Stardust vein.
The Rasmus again
George Michael again
Snow Patrol again
D12 again
The Dandy Warhols again
Eamon again
Jamelia - Thank You again
N.E.R.D. again
There is probably an interesting and catchy song about teenagers not shagging, but Don't Tell Me isn't it. The subject matter is a lot more difficult to tackle without creating an instant kitsch classic, and the rest of the song is rubbish simply because it's Avril Lavigne, and she hasn't gotten past "Hey look, I can spread this word over several bars!"
Blue again
Beyonce - Naughty Girl again
Black Eyed Peas - Hey Mama again
The Streets again
Britney again
3 Doors Down again
By all rights, the video for All The Small Things shouldn't work: it's taking the piss out of boybands, while producing one of the finest pop tunes of the last 5 years. It manages this by pinpoint accuracy in its parodies: Blink-182 are actually pretty good dancers, among other things.
Natasha Bedingfield again
Kylie Minogue - Red Blooded Woman again
Dido - Don't Leave Home again
Sugababes - In The Middle again
Linkin Park - In The End again
Usher again
The video for No Doubt's cover of It's My Life leaves me as speechless as the song. I'm not usually one to talk "travesties".. so I won't.
The Rasmus again
Christina Milian again
D12 again
There's no clue in the video for Good Charlotte's The Anthem about whether they're taking the piss or not. The video is basically lollapalooza around an emptied swimming pool, with the vocalist singing about how he doesn't want to be "just like you" to the assembled cartoon indie kids. But then, indie kids are generally pretty cartoon, bless 'em. One way or another, the video never blinks.
Franz Ferdinand - Matinee again
Eamon again
Fefe Dobson again
Red Hot Chili Peppers - By The Way again
N.E.R.D. again
Nelly Furtado - Try again
Maroon 5 - This Love again
Beyonce - Naughty Girl again
Madonna - Frozen again
Britney again
Hooray, Ash are back! Orpheus is classic ASh: harmonies, girls, tricky middle bit, and more cars than usual. It's brilliant.
Chemical Brothers again
Snow Patrol again
Natasha Bedingfield again
Blink 182 - I Miss You again
Avril Lavigne again
Sugababes - In The Middle again
Everybody's Changing proves that Keane have discovered the 303 - and put it to the same use as Travis would.
Blur again
Usher again
Maroon 5 - Harder To Breathe again
The Streets again
The Rasmus again
Alanis Morissette again
