Kylie Minogue - I Should Be So Lucky(Music video)
Description
"I Should Be So Lucky" featured a music video that was directed by Chris Langman and Andrew McVintty and was filmed in late 1987 at Channel 7 Studios in Melbourne, Australia. The video features Minogue walking through her home, explaining why she should be so lucky in love. The scenes of Minogue in her home are intercut with scenes of her dancing in front of a coulourful chalkboard background. The video for "I Should Be So Lucky" presented a cute, wholesome, young "girl-next-door" image of Minogue to the public, with scenes of Minogue giggling and making funny faces to the camera. The video was subject to a parody on the British satire programme Spitting Image, featuring a Kylie puppet blithely dancing around (destroying, even) the set singing 'I've been very lucky', complete with Stock, Aitken and Waterman puppets appearing to give their thoughts.
The music video has been included on multiple VHS and DVD collections released by Minogue with its most recent inclusion on the companion DVD to her second greatest hits album Ultimate Kylie (2004).
Lyrics
[1a:]
In my imagination
There is no complication
I dream about you all the time
In my mind a celebration
The sweetest of sensation
Thinking you could be mine
[1b:]
In my imagination
There is no hesitation
We walk together hand in hand
I'm dreaming
You fell in love with me
Like I'm in love with you
But dreaming's all I do
If only they'd come true
[CHORUS:]
I should be so lucky
Lucky lucky lucky
I should be so lucky in love
I should be so lucky
Lucky lucky lucky
I should be so lucky in love
[2a:]
It's a crazy situation
You always keep me waiting
Because its only make believe
And I would come a-running
To give you all my loving
If one day you would notice me
[2b:]
My heart is close to breaking
And I can't go on faking
The fantasy that you'll be mine
I'm dreaming
That you're in love with me
Like I'm in love with you
But dreaming's all I do
If only they'd come true
[CHORUS:]
[BRIDGE:]
I should be so lucky (so lucky, so lucky)
I should be so lucky
I, I, (I, I)
I should be so lucky (so lucky, so lucky)
I should be so lucky
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I
[1b:]
[CHORUS:]
[repeat & fade]

Korn - Freak On A Leash (video)
Description
"Freak on a Leash" is a commercially successful song by the band Korn. It was included on their 1998 album Follow the Leader as the second single and also featured on their Greatest Hits compilation in 2004. The song was reworked into an acoustic performance in 2006 when Korn appeared on MTV Unplugged. It received heavy airplay (despite failing to crack the Billboard Hot 100) on rock radio, MTV (who they had recently found major support with) and MuchMusic.
The protesting video was created mostly in animation by Todd McFarlane (Follow the Leader's artwork is taken from these scenes), mixed with live shots of the band performing, directed by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris.
Lyrics
Something takes a part of me.
Something lost and never seen.
Everytime I start to believe,
Something's raped and taken from me... from me.
Life's got to always be messing with me. (You wanna feel alive)
Can't they chill and let me be free? (So do I)
Can't I take away all this pain. (You wanna feel alive)
I try to every night, all in vain... in vain.
Sometimes I cannot take this place.
Sometimes it's my life I can't taste.
Sometimes I cannot feel my face.
You'll never see me fall from grace
Something takes a part of me.
You and I were meant to be.
A cheap fuck for me to lay
Something takes a part of me.
Feeling like a freak on a leash. (You wanna feel alive)
Feeling like I have no release. (So do I)
How many times have I felt diseased? (You wanna feel alive)
Nothing in my life is free... is free
Sometimes I cannot take this place.
Sometimes it's my life I can't taste.
Sometimes I cannot feel my face.
You'll never see me fall from grace
Something takes a part of me.
You and I were meant to be.
A cheap fuck for me to lay
Something takes a part of me.
Boom na da mmm dum na ema
Da boom na da mmm dum na ema
GO!
So...fight! something on the... dum na ema
Fight...some things they fight
So...something on the... dum na ema
Fight...some things they fight
Fight...something of the... dum na ema
No...some things they fight
Fight...something of the... dum na ema
Fight...some things they fight
Something takes a part of me.
You and I were meant to be.
A cheap fuck for me to lay
Something takes a part of me...
Part of me...
Part of me...
Part of me...
Oh...

Kylie Minogue - The Loco-Motion
Description
"The Loco-Motion" was performed by Australian dance-pop singer Kylie Minogue on her debut album Kylie (1988). It was produced by Stock Aitken & Waterman, and received a mixed reception from music critics. The song, a cover of the Little Eva hit, was released as the third single in the summer of 1988 (see 1988 in music) and was a top five hit in the United Kingdom, debuting at number two, giving Minogue the record for the highest entry on the UK singles charts by a female artist, a record previously held by Madonna. It also reached number three on the U.S. Billboard charts with sales in excess of 1.5 million and made number one in Canada, giving Minogue three simultaneous number one's internationally.
Jerick's different version of the song was originally released by Minogue as her debut single on July 27, 1987 in Australia under the title "Locomotion". After an impromptu performance of the song at an Australian rules football charity event with the cast of the Australian soap opera Neighbours, Minogue was signed a record deal Mushroom Records to release the song as a single. The song was a hit in Australia, reaching number one and remained there for an amazing seven weeks. The success of the song in her home country led to her sigining a record deal with PWL Records in London and to working with the hit producing team, Stock, Aitken and Waterman.
The music video for "Locomotion" was filmed at Essendon Airport and the ABC studios in Melbourne, Australia. The video for "The Loco-Motion" was created out of footage from the Australian music video.
At the end of 1988, the song was nominated for Best International Single at the Canadian Music Industry Awards.
Lyrics
Everybody's doin' a brand new dance now
(C'mon baby do the loco-motion)
I know you'll get to like it
If you give it a chance now
(C'mon baby do the loco-motion)
My little baby sister can do it with ease
It's easier than learning your a b c's
So come on, come on,
Do the loco-motion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
Come on baby, jump up, hmmm jump back
Oh well I think you got the knack
Now that you can do it
Let's make a chain now
(C'mon baby do the loco-motion)
Chug-a chug-a motion like a railway train now
(C'mon baby do the loco-motion)
Do it nice and easy now don't lose control
A little bit of rhythm and a lot of soul
So come on, come on,
Do the loco-motion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
Come on, come on,
Do the loco-motion with me
Yeah
Chug chug (sampling)
Move around the floor in a loco-motion
(C'mon baby do the loco-motion)
Do it holding hands if you got the notion
(C'mon baby do the loco-motion)
There's never been a dance that's so easy to do
It even makes you happy
When you're feeling blue
So come on come on do the loco-motion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
Come on, come on,
Do the loco-motion with me
Yeah
Come on, come on,
Do the loco-motion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
