I'm bored with the lack of video-based music television currently, so let's try and piece together an ideal Top40 Chart show style run-down from YouTube (or elsewhere, if it helps). Music videos only, and one link at a time, please! Straight in at #40... uk.youtube.com/watch?v=dzD5e3lQKhg

As the sidebar notes, the Sweet Exorcist video is one of Jarvis Cocker's directorial efforts, making ends meet back in the day... Anyone got a full listing of all his music video credits (both Wikipedia and IMDB are incomplete...)?

#29 - If you were at Junior School when this video came out, it looked like it could be from the most exciting film ever (after Krull...) uk.youtube.com/watch?v=3khTntOxX-k

Er... #25? I'm not sure this is the actual video (there may not have been one), but this single has always been one of my favourites, and is the epitome of major label 'New Wave' (and don't half the band look like they've strayed from a post-punk episode of Star Stories?) uk.youtube.com/watch?v=5ulYAE_GgnU

#22 as seen on that crappy advert where they're just ripping off the OK Go video but they obviously couldn't afford to license OK Go but they could afford to license Blancmange

Not seen this for years and years, so at #21 - Apparently, The Gossip have a song of the same title on their upcoming album, could it be a cover?

Google's bullying of the PRS hasn't yet removed all music videos from YouTube UK (at least not the illegal ones). Here's a plug for Watchmen, 20 years ahead of their time, #17(Inevitable Smiley required )

#16 - Not often any of have put a new release in this list, but The Horrors' single is ridiculously good - I've not enjoyed a song this much for ages.

#14 should really have been Half Man Half Biscuit, but I was up too late and too drunk when I posted that video in the wrong thread recently; so here at #13 is something else instead.

Some very cheerful cartoonish music at #12. This was actually a single on Creation, in their dying days.
