Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody video was only as a result of them not wanting to appear on Top of the Pops, as in those days the No.1 song in the charts used to be performed live in the studio, or if not they would show live footage of the song being played at a previous time. The video to this song however was shot quickly , and effectively, leading it to be as well recognized a video as there ever has been, as the main shots of the video were identical to the bands album cover. The fact that the video is still recognized today shows how it has stood well to the test of time and is still very memorable.
TAKE ON ME
The video to A-Ha's 'Take on Me' is such a memorable video because still today people are confused as to how some of the technical parts of the video were actually achieved. The effortless combination of animation and live action fits together perfectly as the video shows great skill and execution. However, the real great point to the video is the added value it gave to a song that had tanked with it's first release, but after it released a second time with the video it became a huge success.
