1. Yes that is very funny.
Edited on Mon Apr-26-10 02:11 AM by RandomThoughts
Seen that one before.

It is a dream sequence, with lots of symbols. That version is funny play on that video for sure.

And the song is pretty good in its original version. I like the way she sings of sadness, and the response is a consistent request to just turn around. Almost as if she does not hear, it, she sings on.

Another good turn around song.

Don't let it bring you down.

And of coarse.
Walking on Broken Glass. :D

3. Probably. Total Eclipse of the Heart is the best one, imo.

4. That's probably the best of the lot but these are pretty good also:
"Head over Heels" by Tears for Fears

"Take On Me" by A-Ha
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HE9OQ4FnkQ

6. Take On Me is still the champ.
Separate Ways by Journey is also good.
