then hey lady the modern music video is
becoming more and more magnificent about
to curl the paparazzi on myself
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
ten decade defining music videos of the
2010 so far but if God got us that we
Kobe all right for this list we’ve
ranked the most popular most iconic
music videos and those that best
represent the 2010s in general there are
no criteria limitations in terms of
genre although only one video per act is
allowed this is part of a series of
videos spanning the decades from the
1980s and beyond number 10
uptown funk Mark Ronson featuring Bruno
Mars this hit that ice cold michelle
pfeiffer that white gold Bruno Mars’s
music videos really are from another
planet the accompaniment to locked out
of heaven is vintage style grainy gold
like that
but the uptown funk short film is
probably the slickest thing since sliced
bread wait a minute fill my cup put some
liquor in it take a sip sign a check
from Rockstar shades to a salmon pink
jacket it’s fun fashionable and a fairly
accurate representation of exactly
what’s trendy in the 2010s even Mars’s
dance moves are decade defining Mark
Ronson’s role only adds to the
awesomeness and frankly there’s likely
never been a music video cast that’s
this damn cool
it might seem crazy waterboxx a number
nine happy Pharrell Williams if you’re
not smiling at least a little bit by the
end of our next video then you must be
having a very bad day
a short-film as infectious as the song
single on lyrics it’s built around
everyday people with some celeb cameos
dancing everyday dance moves and
generally loving life what’s not to like
but the best thing of all the official
edit is made up of various moments taken
from a mammoth 24-hour version of the
film that was a hell of a happy day
number 8 we found love Rihanna featuring
Calvin Harris one of the most
controversial music videos of its time
we found love with shots
in Northern Ireland and boasts a
typically British edginess
a hotly anticipated clip even before its
release it attracted worldwide media
attention after filming permissions were
withdrawn by a local farmer who also
reportedly advised Rihanna to be
acquainted with God after offence was
taken over the singer significant state
of undress Leary’s clothing choices
caused a stir upon release as well as
did the film’s allusions toward domestic
violence still want a Grammy though
you
number seven run away
Kanye West featuring Pusha T something
wrong Kanye West’s collaboration with
jay-z on Otis would have feature today
we’re it’s not for runaway there are
very few videos ever to match this
effort in terms of scope let alone
during just the 2010 Travie toast from
stress let’s have a toast foot ballet
has rarely looked better nor felt more
mesmerizing whatever your opinion on the
controversial star Kanye nailed it in
this clip run away from the baby run
away the basis to a 35-minute musical
short film there’s a long and short
version to the video and both are well
worth taking the time to watch dad a fan
run away fast as you
greetings look number six California
Gurls
Katy Perry featuring Snoop Dogg place
where the glass is really clean
if you’ve ever wondered what a dentist’s
nightmare looks like then this is it
the go
in this Katy Perry decada finer the US
state of California is affectionately
named confection Italy rebranded as the
sweeter sounding candy for Nia and it’s
a place where everyone’s happy dog plays
the sugar daddy villain while Perry
plays the leader of the ladies trying to
defeat him the candy / cupcake look is
now classic Katy Perry and the purple
wig / candy floss footage is arguably
her most iconic moment of all
some couples run up bringing my doorbell
I feel the love feel the love number
five
chandelier see ya stand out record for
SIA center stage for the chandelier
video however is taken by another until
then less high-profile personality
Maddie Ziegler might have been a
household name for anybody watching the
reality TV show Dance Moms but for
anyone else this unbelievable routine is
likely the first point of reference and
what a point of reference it is
it’s basically impossible to stop
watching as Ziggler performs with an
emotional range and maturity way beyond
her 11 years at the time of filming what
a talent
give my god
number four somebody that I used to know
Gotye featuring kimbra know in terms of
instantly recognizable music videos of
the 2010s this is probably the best
example
a brutally beautiful breakup song both
Gotye and Kimbra artistically featured
in the film which won over critics with
its intimacy directed by Natasha Pincus
and featuring the artwork of Howard
Clark and the skin illustrative skills
of Emma hack it looks simple and it is
unique but there was a huge amount of
work needed to nail this it almost took
24 hours to body paint Gautier and
Kimbra but as they say genius takes time
number three blurred lines Robin Thicke
featuring ti and Pharrell Williams
arguably the most controversial video of
the decade the problem many critics had
with blurred lines was ironically clear
the short film frontman Robin Thicke is
joined by Ti and Pharrell as the men in
the view of their critics massagin eyes
their way through the song’s entirety
alongside a trio of female models
wearing nothing much it’s all Hunicke on
that day I like your leg I swear you’ll
spend NSF folio headlight and for the
videos unrated cuts they’re wearing even
less with over 400 million YouTube views
for the clean version though like it or
loathe it blurred lines defines the
times
number two wrecking ball Miley Cyrus we
clawed we chained our hearts in vain we
jumped never asking why another video
famous in part because of what its
subject is or isn’t wearing when Miley
Cyrus released wrecking ball she was mid
snowball in terms of her own spiraling
superstardom I came in
the singer seemed desperate to shed her
Hannah Montana Disney child star labels
and by riding an eponymous wrecking ball
naked she went a fair way toward doing
that
part of the short film nods toward
sinead o’connor’s nothing compares to
you but really nothing compares to it
don’t you ever say I just walked away I
will always want you it’s a hard-on
sleeve performance only there’s not a
sleeve in sight before we reveal our top
pick here are a few honorable mentions
had a broken keyboard i bought a broken
keyboard about a sheet blanket then I
bought anymore
whooping Cottenham star
gumgum star number one Gangnam style psy
majumdar sorrow when he got jogging yoga
as of the late 2000s and throughout the
2010s a music video only really makes it
big if and when it goes viral and
Gangnam style certainly did that
whooping Cottenham star comes with over
two billion YouTube views it smashed all
previous World Records and established
itself as the defining video of its time
you’d ever see put me on moon from the
monty pullin gotcha size balance between
suiting up and getting down took the
whole world by storm
so put your bow tie on and go bananas
because sometimes it’s just the best
possible idea whooping condom star
