00:0030. The Sign, A$AP Base
00:29The music videos are constantly changing
00:32and they have experienced many stylistic variations over the years.
00:40Perhaps no video is more of its time than this one of the Swedish A$AP Base.
00:44The group always presented us with powerful voices and melodic hooks,
00:48while this video tries to incorporate the visual technology of the time.
00:52We see clips of floating angst for reasons that we do not understand,
01:00while the group overlaps with other images of good, especially themselves.
01:05It is not the worst of the list, but the tendency of The Sign to take herself so seriously
01:10makes it worthy of a position.
01:14Number 29. No Diggity, Blackstreet Fit, Dr. Dre and Queen Pan.
01:20All the troops in the R&B video make sense after an initial glimpse of No Diggity by Blackstreet.
01:31Limos, of course, dancers in the background, of course.
01:34Blackstreet also agreed to use overalls in the game, which is a nice detail.
01:44That said, can someone explain to us why there is a puppet on a piano?
01:48It is an absurd element that is never explained,
01:51unless Dr. Dre thought it was a great idea.
01:54Puppets appear throughout the video playing the guitar and generally passing the time.
01:59However, it is the most memorable aspect of No Diggity,
02:03and one of the reasons why we are still talking about the video today.
02:08Number 20. Nothing My Love Can't Fix, Joey Lawrence.
02:13It is a classic stage, actors singing and musicians acting.
02:20Joey Lawrence was the last of a long list of artists who tried to bring their talent to music
02:26with Nothing My Love Can't Fix.
02:28His link with stage arts serves him to sell the song,
02:32while the video itself is very colorful in the style of the 90s.
02:43The first splashes give way to Joey in all his splendor.
02:47Dressed with what we can say, the latest fashion of the moment,
02:51Lawrence is mainly on the beach and on the streets,
02:54passing his hands through his hair perfectly.
02:57Number 27. Aeroplane, Red Hot Chili Peppers.
03:01The Red Hot Chili Peppers have always had a funky and unique visual style,
03:05and this has also been transferred to their music videos.
03:15Aeroplane reminds us of the song of the 90s,
03:17but this time it is a song of the 80s.
03:27Aeroplane is one of the most popular variety shows on television in the 70s,
03:31with sequins suits and support dancers.
03:33The energy is in constant motion,
03:35while the saturated colors are cheerful, but not entirely unpleasant.
03:45The group does their thing while the extras shake their paddles
03:49that seem to simulate a lander landed at an airport.
03:53Oh, and for some reason there are also trapeze dancers,
03:56as well as a giant pool,
03:58all while the Chili Peppers make the house vibrate.
04:06Number 26. Rico Suave, Gerardo.
04:08Both the song and the video became the joke of the decade,
04:12and for a good reason.
04:19The legacy of the 90s had not yet been established well
04:22when Rico Suave de Gerardo was published in that same decade.
04:25As a result, the video still appears from the late 80s,
04:29with the gaze firmly set on selling sex.
04:37To be fair, both Gerardo and his support dancers
04:40are always in front of the camera,
04:42however, Rico Suave will forever be a time capsule.
04:46It is a photograph of a very bad aesthetic taste,
04:49or as bad as it is good, depending on the point of view of each one.
04:58Number 25. Suck It To Me, Missy Elliott Feat. Da Brat.
05:03Fans could always count on the imagination of Harold Hype Williams
05:07when it came to original ideas for music videos.
05:19How else can the video of Suck It To Me be explained?
05:22A collaboration between Missy Elliott and Da Brat.
05:31Apparently, the couple's suits are inspired by the Megaman video game franchise,
05:36while their adventures in space have little or nothing to do with the song itself.
05:41But who cares? Elliott and Da Brat sell the ridiculous concept.
05:46Even Lil' Kim joins the party,
05:48making Suck It To Me an unusual video.
05:51From the first frame to the last.
05:55Number 24. No Limit. To A Limited.
05:58The world of European dance music has historically been quite wild.
06:03The stereotypical low sense of self-awareness of the genre
06:06has given us countless clips like No Limit by To A Limited.
06:10We admit that the Pinball set is imaginative,
06:13and the duo takes full advantage of it with their dances and gestures.
06:33Their costume is exuberant, and almost looks like a proto version of Matrix.
06:37The final results are offered without rolling,
06:40and this lack of irony makes No Limit look like a strange dream,
06:44but it's not. It's very, very real.
06:51Number 23. Brains 2. Jaded. Green Day.
06:57These two Green Day songs may be separated in their fourth album, Insomaniac,
07:02but the combination for the music video makes them feel together forever.
07:09We never understand why the band travels on an excavator,
07:13or why they are in a junkyard.
07:15The cuts to an animal trying to stand up are disturbing,
07:19while the change from sepia to color seems taken from The Wizard of Oz.
07:23The latter happens when Brains 2 changes to Jaded,
07:27and the video steps on the accelerator.
07:32The rest are mainly angles and first chaotic shots,
07:36while the dizzying rhythm takes us to the end,
07:39leaving us breathless and with many questions.
07:47Number 22. Nothing Really Matters. Madonna.
07:50The Material Girl has given us the best music videos and period.
08:02Is Nothing Really Matters one of them?
08:04Maybe, if you like the image of Madonna wearing a kimono
08:07in a way that could have aroused criticism for cultural appropriation in our days.
08:20On the other hand, we also see her holding a strange transparent plastic container
08:24that they never explain to us.
08:26The dance is well executed, and at the same time it is extravagant and strange.
08:31The effect as a whole is in consonance with the Ray of Light era of the star,
08:35influenced by electro dance.
08:37So it's successful in that sense, but it's still weird.
08:50Number 21. Hunter. Björk.
08:52If travel is searching...
08:57That we have included Björk in this list should not surprise anyone,
09:01since the Icelandic singer has made an indefinable career.
09:05Hunter has the singular premise of offering the public
09:09a first shot of her on a white and austere background.
09:13I thought I could organize freedom...
09:18The director of the music video, Paul White,
09:21employed a team of digital effects artists
09:24to superimpose all kinds of effects on Björk's face.
09:27Unfortunately, it has not aged well,
09:30and its initial novelty now seems more picturesque than revolutionary.
09:34The song is still great, of course,
09:37but the video pales in comparison with some of the artist's oldest clips.
09:44Number 20. Give It Away. Red Hot Chili Peppers.
09:48Give It Away was the first big hit of the Red Hot Chili Peppers,
09:52and it reached number one on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks list.
10:02The concept of the strombotic music video
10:04came from the singer Anthony Kiedis,
10:06who wanted to make it visually unique and to stand out from the rest.
10:11They hired a French fashion photographer called Stéphane Sinaoui,
10:15who decided to cover the members of the band with a silver acrylic paint
10:19and shoot the video in black and white.
10:28The production also has a wide variety of different cinematographic techniques,
10:32with the superimposition and the metamorphosis of light and shadow.
10:36Warner Bros. hated it, because they wanted a more traditional music video.
10:48In any case, it was a great success,
10:50and it helped to catapult the Peppers to the top.
10:54Number 19. You Can't Touch This. MC Hammer.
10:58You Can't Touch This is one of the brilliant achievements of the 90s.
11:06It was the first rap song to get a Grammy album nomination,
11:10and its music video is one of the most successful in the world.
11:14The winner is MC Hammer.
11:17It was the first rap song to get a Grammy album nomination,
11:22and its music video is an undeniable icon of pop culture.
11:29You Can't Touch This.
11:32It is very characteristic of the 90s, highlighting fashion and wide pants.
11:44It also shows Hammer executing some of his characteristic dance moves,
11:49like the Running Man and his famous Hammer Dance,
11:52in which he slides on the floor like a crab.
12:02This is the greatest representation of rap of the 90s.
12:05Number 18. I Love You. Vanilla Ice.
12:08Forget about Ice, Ice, Baby. I Love You is the best.
12:22Published six months after the incredible success of Ice, Ice, Baby,
12:26on Valentine's Day 1991, I Love You is a cursive ballad
12:31in which Ice does everything he can to look serious and emotional.
12:42The video was directed by Michael Bay,
12:45who would later gain fame thanks to his action movies.
12:55It's like a parody in a movie.
12:57It's full of Tom Cruise.
13:00It's full of slow motion shots of Ice with a contemplative and taciturn look,
13:05sensual shots of women dancing,
13:07and even a cursive green screen effect that shows clouds that move quickly.
13:19It seems that the video was made for $10 and it is fantastically cursive.
13:30Number 17. It's All Coming Back To Me Now. Celine Dion.
13:35Written by Jean Steinman, It's All Coming Back To Me Now
13:39is inspired by Emily Bronte's Cumbres Borrascosas
13:43and was originally performed by Pandora's Box
13:46before the Canadian icon Celine Dion did a cover.
13:51There were nights when the wind was so cold
13:56but my body froze
14:16Baby, baby, if I kissed you like this
14:20There were also many sensual kisses,
14:23ghostly appearances and dramatic flashbacks.
14:26Everything is wonderfully exaggerated.
14:35Number 16. Caffeine TV. Blur.
14:38Caffeine TV is a different song from the British rock band Blur,
14:42as it was sung by guitarist Graham Coxon instead of Damon Albarn.
14:50Practically blonde
14:54The video, although it is a spectacular cinematic work
14:57that won several awards from the industry,
15:00it is also like a feverish dream.
15:02The sun between your teeth
15:05is hot enough for me
15:09The concept is that Coxon disappeared
15:11and now he is on the side of a milk carton.
15:13Then the carton grows in his arm,
15:15becomes conscious and goes on an epic adventure
15:19to find Coxon.
15:26It is incredible how Blur and the creators of the video
15:29managed to make the audience cry for a milk carton.
15:38But such is the genius of this strange,
15:41adorable and moving music video.
15:49Number 15. Into Your Arms. The Lemonheads.
15:53The biggest hit of The Lemonheads, Into Your Arms,
15:56was 9 weeks in a row on the top of the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks list.
16:07Released in 1993,
16:09the song came to personify the alternative rock fashion of the time.
16:19In the video we see the band singing the song in the middle of the forest
16:23and the camera never stops moving.
16:32It revolves around the members of the band,
16:35around the people dancing in a square
16:37and around the leader Evan Jando while he sings in front of him.
16:41I know I won't be alone
16:48The video also serves as a physical representation
16:51of the old rock movement of the early 90s
16:54with Jando's long hair and the drummer's red t-shirt.
16:58What a great time capsule!
17:01Number 14. I Want You Back. NSYNC.
17:04As the single debut of one of the biggest boy bands in history,
17:07I Want You Back became two videos.
17:11Tell me what to do now
17:17The second version was made for British and American releases
17:21and is much more boring and traditional than the original.
17:31This was released in Germany,
17:33since NSYNC had signed with a record label from that country.
17:41In this one we see the band dancing
17:44in a horrible green screen space station
17:47with a mid-90s CGI ridiculously cheap
17:51and a glorious look of the time.
18:01We don't know what's weirder,
18:03if the green screen, the mediocre CGI,
18:05operates Justin Timberlake as a 15-year-old boy.
18:11Number 13. Thank You. Alanis Morissette.
18:14Canadian-American singer Alanis Morissette
18:17dominated the 90s
18:20and Thank You was her fifth number one in Canada
18:23and her best-selling single in the United Kingdom,
18:26which reached number 5.
18:34Her success was contributed by her little sister,
18:37Her success was contributed by her unconventional music video,
18:41in which she appeared completely naked.
18:44She walks through very busy areas
18:47and is constantly approached and hugged by strangers.
18:56Like Give It Away, the video was directed by Stéphane Satnaoui
19:00and the concept is attributed to Morissette herself.
19:07The artist declared for The Miami Herald
19:10that the video was less about manifest sexuality
19:13and more about the symbol of being really raw,
19:16intimate and being naked in all these environments
19:19in which you would apparently need protection.
19:30Number 12. Barbie Girl. Aqua.
19:33Few songs and music videos
19:37represent the 90s better than Barbie Girl by Aqua.
19:46This was pure incomplete bubblegum pop
19:49and may be one of the most catchy songs ever written.
19:59The video is ironic, with an initial statement
20:02that it was filmed in Aquascope.
20:05It could very well be the worst music video ever recorded.
20:15It seems cheap, it is full of cheesy transitions and bright colors
20:19and the members of the band, especially Renée,
20:22throw numerous memes-worthy looks at the camera.
20:25But the intentional cheesyness is part of the charm.
20:35It's ridiculous, silly and, above all, very funny.
20:45Number 11. The Bad Touch. Bloodhound Gang.
20:48Another glorious piece of dance pop.
20:51The Bad Touch was a great success in Europe,
20:54as it reached number 1 in 8 different countries.
20:57You and me, baby, ain't nothin' but mammals
21:00So let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel
21:04And the music video, although very famous,
21:07also raised some controversy.
21:09Here we see the band dressed in monkey suits running through Paris,
21:12kidnapping and mistreating several people.
21:15The video was considered insensitive by several groups
21:18and, in fact, GLAAD denounced MTV for releasing it.
21:27Later, an edited version was released,
21:30but it's still ridiculous,
21:33although not as much as the lyrics.
21:42Number 10. Car and I Joe. Ratnecks.
21:45In 1994, a Swedish Eurodance group called Ratnecks
21:49made a cover of the song Pop Car and I Joe,
21:53combining the southern twang and instruments
21:56like banjos and violins with a techno style.
22:06The unique mix was contagious,
22:08and the novelty of the song and the music video
22:11helped Car and I Joe reach number 1
22:14in many European countries.
22:23In the video, we see the members of the band
22:26at a wild party in a barn.
22:35It reflects the unique mix of genres and styles of the song,
22:38demonstrating to be as fun as a real dance in a barn.
22:49Number 9. Rub is in the Heart. D-Lite.
22:52Rub is in the Heart, single debut of this dance group,
22:55is widely considered as one of the best songs of the 90s
22:59and made D-Lite one of the most popular one-hit wonders in the world.
23:11The music video that accompanies it
23:13refers us to the psychedelia of the 60s,
23:16showing the band about changing shapes and bright colors that explode.
23:22Rub is in the Heart
23:27Some wonder why, we wonder why not.
23:38The unique style and theme make the video stand out
23:41among its contemporaries and manages to generate nostalgia
23:44both from the 60s and the 90s.
23:52Number 8. Baby Got Back. Sir Mix-a-Lot.
23:55Along with You Can't Touch This,
23:58Baby Got Back is the excellent representation
24:01of the 90s hip-hop mainstream.
24:09Both songs were great hits, wonderfully cheesy,
24:12and were equipped with silly music videos.
24:22In this song, Sir Mix-a-Lot,
24:25appears standing on a giant butt
24:28and with many free takes of women dancing and shaking.
24:32Even the record player has a small butt.
24:40Although somewhat insipid for the current standards of WAP and Anaconda,
24:45this video generated some controversy for its explicit sexuality
24:49and was banned by MTV in the early 90s.
25:00Nowadays, it is considered a classic.
25:03Number 7. Quit Playing Games With My Heart. Backstreet Boys.
25:06Like the biggest rivals of NSYNC,
25:09Backstreet Boys were the boy band par excellence of the 90s.
25:19And this was their most successful single in the United States,
25:23as it reached number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100.
25:33The concept of the music video is simple.
25:36The Backstreet Boys dance in the rain,
25:39and in the end they take off their shirt.
25:42An idea that was about to be banned by MTV,
25:45which that day felt especially mojigata.
25:49Number 6. Quit Playing Games With My Heart. Backstreet Boys.
25:53Viewers can see many cheesy shots,
25:56first shots of emotional and sexy faces,
25:59and the Backstreet Boys rubbing their hands on wet hair.
26:10It is perhaps the most dramatic music video in history,
26:13and tells you everything you need to know about the boom of the boy bands of the mid-90s.
26:19Number 6. Black Hole Sun. Soundgarden.
26:22Black Hole Sun was released at the height of the grunge movement,
26:26and it is very evident.
26:36Apart from the exaggerated production and the dark lyrics,
26:39the song is accompanied by a creepy music video with surrealist images,
26:43and a very sad and sad song.
26:47The whole world has chilling and exaggerated smiles on their distorted faces.
26:51People are sitting in front of a static TV,
26:54and the girls see the barbies burn on the grill.
27:04All before the sky turns red,
27:07and all before the sun goes down.
27:10All before the sky turns red,
27:13and a black hole destroys everyone.
27:24It is brilliantly imaginative, but creepy and weird.
27:27This is the personalized mid-90s rock,
27:31and it is both a cultural icon and a reason for nostalgia.
27:40Number 5. What's Up With You?
27:43Eddie Murphy and Michael Jackson.
27:46Be patient, because we swear we are not making this up.
27:57Released in 1993, What's Up With You?
28:00is played by both Eddie Murphy and Michael Jackson,
28:03and was included in Murphy's third studio album.
28:06The comedian had a short musical career
28:09spanning from the mid-80s to the early 90s.
28:21Like Black Hole Sun, What's Up With You?
28:24personifies the 90s, but in a very different way.
28:27To begin with, Eddie Murphy and Michael Jackson sing it.
28:36To begin with, Eddie Murphy and Michael Jackson sing it.
28:40On the other hand, there is this strange spelling of the title,
28:43which simply shouts early 90s.
28:46Finally, we have the stellar fashion of Murphy's time
28:49and the cheesy green screen work.
28:52Everything is ridiculous.
29:00Very memorable and entertaining, yes, but ridiculous at the end.
29:06Number 4. I'm Too Sexy.
29:09Number 4. I'm Too Sexy.
29:12Writes Art Fred.
29:20I'm Too Sexy is a masterpiece of dance pop
29:23that parodies narcissism and belittling.
29:32Writes Art Fred is composed by the Fred brothers
29:36and Richard Fairbrass, and apparently the idea of the song
29:39came from his experience running a gym
29:42and witnessing the narcissism that is exhibited there.
29:53The music video is exactly what you would expect.
29:56It has ridiculous costumes, torn shirts,
29:59many naked breasts, muscles that appear out of nowhere
30:02and even a walkway with bikini women
30:05who take pictures of the Fairbrass brothers.
30:15The video ends with an accomplice and self-critical smile
30:18that says it all about the three minutes of nonsense that precedes it.
30:23Number 3. Hooked on a Feeling.
30:26David Hasselhoff.
30:29Actor David Hasselhoff has played with music for decades
30:32and in 1997 he released his ninth studio album
30:35entitled Hooked on a Feeling.
30:38Here we find the song that gives the album its title,
30:41a version of the classic by B.J. Thomas and Blue Sweat.
30:52It was accompanied by what is either the best video
30:55or the worst music video in history.
30:58It depends on how we see it.
31:02The video is full of a very fun green screen work,
31:05multiple shots of Huff flying through the air,
31:16even interacting with digital cubes with images of the music video.
31:19It's probably a joke, but we can't be sure of anything.
31:22In any case, it could well be the dumbest thing we've ever seen.
31:32Number 2. Blue Daba Dee and Fall 65.
31:35One of the most popular Eurodance songs of the 90s.
31:38Blue Daba Dee is confusing but incredibly fun.
31:41These adjectives could also be used to describe its music video.
31:56It is said that five people did it in a garage.
32:00It is generated almost entirely by computer
32:03and tells the story of some blue aliens
32:06who kidnap singer Jeffrey J. and take him to his planet.
32:17They force him to give a concert
32:20and the other members end up rescuing him
32:23with martial arts and extravagant superpowers.
32:30It's a feverish dream,
32:33and even more memorable thanks to its cheap CGI.
32:36It's very silly, but it's also a masterpiece
32:39of the music of the late 90s.
32:49Hey, hey, hey, we're not done yet, but almost.

33:01Surely you will like them.
33:04Now, let's go to the end.
33:07Number 1. Numb, U2.
33:10It's amazing to think that such a popular band
33:13can produce such experimental material.
33:21Numb is a strange piece of industrial rock
33:24with sound effects, a sizzling guitar note
33:27and an amazing vocal interpretation of Edge.
33:36In the video, Edge sits in a black room
33:39and looks at the camera while a stroboscopic light
33:42pierces his face and then his feet.
33:52He gets slapped by a girl,
33:57and even ties his face with a rope
34:00before Larry Mullen Jr. enters the scene.
34:11The combination of sizzling music
34:14and violent visual effects is disturbing and unpleasant.
34:17It's easily the strangest thing U2 has ever done.
34:20Do you remember seeing these videos when they were released?
34:27And do you agree with our selections?
