Music First

I've never believed in Less Is More, but I do believe in Keep It Simple and this simple rule is what separates Beyonce and Cascada from more melodramatic pop stars.  Their most recent videos are good examples of what makes a successful music video. 

Rule #1:  Minions with strange heads.

Rule #2: Command your minions.

Rule #3: Subtle exhibition of power.

Rule #4:  Don't detract from what really matters.

Music videos should not require anymore thought than the song it's displaying.
