Chris Isaak
Wicked Cover of Wicked Game
Submitted by Ray on Sat, 07/04/2009 - 21:40Chris Isaak's (wikipedia) Wicked Game is a great song (with an even greater video). The Lucky Bucks' cover of Wicked Game is fantastic as well. I'm new to this band and was intrigued to see their approach to drums and bass.
Top 3 Music Videos of All Time
Submitted by Ray on Tue, 06/02/2009 - 23:03Here is my list of the Top 3 music videos of all time
3. Hurra Torpedo, Total Eclipse of the Heart
Probably not what Jim Steinman had in mind when he wrote this song. But, for my money, Hurra Torpedo (wikipedia) gives us the best musical performance and video of a Jim Steinman song ever.
2. Chris Isaak, Wicked Game
Great Song + Pretty Girl = Perfect Video
1. Johnny Cash, Hurt
Johnny Cash (wikipedia) has done some great covers over the years, perhaps most notable is the work he did towards the end of his life with Rick Rubin. Cash's fantastic cover of Trent Reznor's (wikipedia) Hurt along with Mark Romanek's (wikipedia) brilliant imagery make this the greatest music video of all time.
