Best (or your favorite) 80s videos?

Forgot a very important one:

Genesis - Land of Confusion

Wow. That one really did not age well. I remember it being so cool back in the day...

I always liked Duran Duran's Union of the Snake and Rick Springfield's Souls as well as Michael Jackson's Thriller.

Paul Simon's You Can Call Me Al (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaleEmXgEvc) cracks me up every time I see it.

Wang Chung - Everybody Have Fun Tonight
Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer
DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince - Parents Just Don't Understand

I agree with Take On Me and Land of Confusion, too.

Well, being an 80's brat myself, I've seen a number of music vids from that era. So if someone were to put a gun to my head, I'd pick:

A-ha - Take on Me (Gotta agree, excellent video)
Dire Straits - Money for Nothing (Whoa, check out the Stone Age CGI! )
Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer (Disturbing to say the least)
Tears for Fears - Head over Heels
WHAM - Freedom (Great footage of Communist China)
Cyndi Lauper - Time after Time, The Goonies R' Good Enough (Wrestlers galore! )
The Police - Every Breath you Take, Don't Stand so Close to Me (85 version)
Phil Collins - Against all Odds
Human League - Electric Dreams

I know there's more, give me time to think it through.
