Has anyone made a list of the Best Early Videos of all time? Abba's "Take a Chance On Me" (1977) would be a serious contender for top spot. There's random dancing, and Vaseline lens, and insane fashion, and sexy winking at the camera, and weird jumping around... it doesn't get much better than this.
But Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart" (1982) is a prime example of Early-late Period videos, which was when the sets ramped up, but the special effects still couldn't keep pace. That period ended with "Sledgehammer" (1986). ;-)
