What songs do you wish had proper official music videos?

Feel free to name as many as you want to!

I was molested by Martha Quinn's dad.

"Keep it Together" was the last song on Like A Prayer to be released, and I was always curious what a video of that song would've been.

Other Madonna songs that would've been neat to see done proper would be "Holiday," "Angel," and "Skin."

Edge Of Seventeen. It did have a low budget, awkward little video that is not regarded as a capital-O Official Video. It could have been EPIC Stevie Nicks visuals. The whole thing practically begs for a big 80s production. But that song came out a year or two before Big Budget was a thing in the music video world.

Donna Summer, MacArthur Park.

p.s. here's the original very-low-budget Edge Of Seventeen video. Probably cost like $5K.

R5, that's still awesome to see, but yes....that song should be backed with a $$$$$ video to match its intensity and bad-assery.

The YouTube vid makes it look like Stevie is missing a tooth! It might just be the VHS quality...

Don Henley, "Sunset Grill". The story of the lyrics combined with that feeling of tension.

R8 When I heard that song as a kid, I imagined they were eating at a restaurant.

With every year that goes by Edge Of Seventeen gets better.

Aretha Franklin - Who's Zoomin' Who. Could've been a cool dance club scene with neon lights, big hair and shoulder pads.

Cyndi Lauper - All Through The Night. Not sure why a video was never made.

R8 and R9 - That's such a great one! Although I enjoy the images/visual vibe I created in my head back when I first heard it.

I was too young to understand what "working girls" were, but when I got older, it added a brand new layer to the song. lol

Agree MacArthur Park would be fun. Even now, whoever has the rights should do some weird, trippy, but hopefully artistic tribute video.

Why didn't a lot of Donna Summer's singles get videos?

by Anonymousreply 26May 20, 2025 7:21 PM

R26, MTV wasn't around when Bad Girls came out. She Works Hard for the Money had a big opening on MTV, but that was after her career peak.
