Set in ancient Egypt, complete with costumes and scenery. Great music & choreography from Michael, as usual!

Naomi Campbell dancing in puddles with little more than black biker boots, Christy Turlington crawling along the floor & Linda Evangelista in that amazing camera shot of her singing from inside her sweater, as they all perfectly lip sync to Freedom…..definitely one of my favorite videos.

I was at Danceteria in NYC when it premiered, and they had it on a big screen. I have nostalgia over “Video Killed the Radio Star, ” since practically no one I knew had cable back then except for one guy. We would all cram into his tiny apartment and watch the same few videos that MTV had over and over. In more recent times, anything Lady Gaga has done is amazing, but my favorite is “Telephone.”

Extended the length and definition of a music video, but cannot beat (“Beat It”, but that’s another) the ending and Vincent Price’s voiceover.
