Yo Yo YO!!! It is another Friday and you know what happens on that day! The 20 best videos get ranked and given to you the people in a little something I call the…
TOP 20 VIDEO COUNTDOWN!!
As we all know, Spiderman 3 comes out in a few short hours and all I can say is I AM SO READY!!! Until then, let’s get this partay started! We start with a debut!
20. Fall Out Boy – Thnks Fr Th Mmrs (New Entry)
Okay, alright. I will admit, I spent the majority of 2005-2006 wondering what made these guys popular. I shant lie, I am a fan of their second album and especially this song. Now I had no idea this video was an ad for Tag body spray, but that is beyond the point. Take that out and it is actually kick ass. Welcome to the Countdown for the first time, guys!
19. Home Made Kazoku – Nagaraboshi ~Shooting Star~ (Last Week #16)
HMK looks to be on their way out this week after making it to the Top 10. They still have a video with Seamo lurking out there, though. We will see…
18. Yui – My Generation (Last Week #20)
Mmmm….yes. The more videos from Yui, the better. This song is beginning to grow on me (unlike ‘CHE.R.RY’ or ‘Life’ which I liked on the first listen) and the video is kind of a continuation on the style of ‘Rolling Star’. I am also trying to find the show that this song is the opening for. A little help, anyone?
17. Game feat. Kanye West – Wouldn’t Get Far (Last Week #13)
Yeah….rap is almost officially off my radar. Unless Diddy does a video for the ‘Last Nite’ Remix this will be the last hip hop video in the Top 5 for a while. Or at least until T.I. comes back. Or maybe sooner….stay tuned!
16. M-Flo feat. Crystal Kay – Love Don’t Cry (Last Week #17)
Crystal Kay already has a new video out?! My god she is fiy-yiy-yine! If you haven’t seen it, check it out. She is quite the saucy. Dare I say, I am officially in love. At least until I get to the Yuna Ito video. Even still, M-Flo and Miss Kay move up a spot this week. With her FINE self.
15. Orange Range – Ika Summer (Last Week #19)
I have totally missed these guys. Just like ‘Champione’ this video is all about pointless fun and good times. If this blog is about anything, it is about pointless fun and good times! It could be the anthem of the blog! Nah, I will stick with Calloway’ “I Wanna Be Rich.”
14. Bennie K – 1001 Nights (Last Week #10)
So there is no word of a new Bennie K video yet, even with the album less than 30 days away. You KNOW I will be getting a copy of that. Until then, 1001 Nights falls a few more places out of the Top Ten. GIVE ME MORE YUKI AND CICO!
13. Namie Amuro – Funky Town (Last Week #14)
So unlike the rocket that was the video for “Baby Don’t Cry” Namie’s new one is taking a slower pace up the Countdown. This week “Funky Town” moves up a spot and closer to the Top Ten. Here is to hoping for a new album soon (which I have heard nothing about but I am not like the Wendy Williams of J-Pop over here)!
12. Daughtry – It’s Not Over (Last Week #6, two weeks at #1, Plunge of the Week)
NOOOO! It can’t be over! Well, it seems to be. For the first time since Feburary, Daughtry is not in the Top 10! After an impressive run he falls the most spots this week (and the most in a long time) with six big ones. “Home” should be hitting the airwaves ANY DAY NOW! YES!
11. Rascal Flats – Stand (Last Week #12)
One step outside of the Top Ten is where this video stands. The Gang is trying to sneak up and pull Number One yet again! Now, we have made it to the top half!
10. Maroon 5 – Makes Me Wonder (Last Week #15)
We begin with a video making a big jump this week! I love this song, and as soon as I find my old software (or get a new computer, it has been 5 years I should probably get to it) I will turn it into a ring tone. Maroon 5 has been hit or miss for me for a while and this is definitely on point!
9. K-OS – Sunday Morning (Last Week #9)
K-OS has slowed down a little bit, standing pat at #9 for the second straight week. Waiting for a little something new video wise, which I odds are would never know since I don’t watch video channels anymore.
8. Kumi Koda – Get Up & Move! (Last Week #8)
Ms. Koda stands pat at #8 this week. It is a shame, because she has really been….not annoying me lately. There was that stretch (around ‘Cherry Girl’) when she went all Paris Hilton on me. Well, not on me SPECIFICALLY because that would have been a good time. Hopefully she is realizing that she is way to talented to be so damn stupid. Oh, and eat a sandwich if you wouldn’t mind.
7. Three Days Grace – Never Too Late (Last Week #5)
After making it to the Top Five, TDG moves back two spots. I am finally ready for new stuff from these guys, let’s hope to get something soon!
6. Yuna Ito – I’m Here (Last Week #7)
Oh hell yes. I was looking through my back up hard drive (700GB of J-pop, anime and cartoons fool! Not a bit of porn…which is not good) when I found her Christmas performance on MTV Japan. My god…she is an awesome performer. Her voice is just YES and she is just…wow. I’M THE ONE WHO WANTS TO BE WITH YOU! DEEP INSIDE I KNOW YOU FEEL IT TOO! Yeah…Kandice I can see how that can creep a woman out. On to the Top Five!
5. John Legend – PDA (We Just Don’t Care) (Last Week #3, four weeks at #1)
After a dominant run at #1, Mr. Legend falls two more spots this week. Nothing new yet, but he will be coming back to the US this fall and I hope to catch him in concert then! I have seen a couple of live performances of this song online and it must be even better in person. Sometimes I wish I was a woman so I could swoon….
4. Avril Lavigne - Girlfriend (Last Week #4)
Avril Lavigne stands firm for a second week with this video. I had a couple of lewd jokes about being “firm” and how she looks in this video, but I am turning over a new leaf. Long story short, no more potty humor. Now, into the Top Three….if you have a keen eye, you notice something right now…
3. UVERworld – Zero no Kotae (Last Week #2)
So UVERworld falls a spot this week, and looks like they may not get that coveted 4th Number One video. That shocks me, because this video still is rather awesome but the two above this one are totally awesome. Even still, it has been a big year for The ‘World and here is hoping for a new video soon (If you are looking for a suggestion guys, ‘51%’ would be a spiffy choice)! We are down to two videos, but which two?
2. Yui – CHE.R.RY (Last Week #1, one week at #1)
Now THIS is a shocker. After only one week at #1, Yui falls to the runner up position! After the long reign of ‘Rolling Star’ I figured Yui would take a rest and camp out for a bit. However, it seems there is an even HOTTER video than this one! Don’t fret, Yui has another video moving up the charts and it is still the ring tone for someone that rules all. And doesn’t know I camp outside her window. Just kidding! Now, it is time for the BRAND NEW #1 Video!
1. nobodyknows+ - Hero’s Come Back! (Last Week #11, Biggest Mover, one week at #1)
It was on April 13th, 2007 that this video debuted on the Countdown. Now after completing the biggest jump EVAR in the Countdown’s history the opening for the new Naruto SLAMS into the Top Spot! This song is now my default ringtone (replacing Bi) and gets played no less than five times a day. It is THAT BAD ASS. The song kicks ass, the video kicks ass, the show kicks ass and the afro kicks ass. Overall….yeah you know it. 3, 2, 1 MAKE SOME NOISE!
Well that is all for this week. Tune in next week to see what kind of hold nobodyknows+ has on Number 1! Can Yui bounce back and take the #1 spot? Or can UVERworld rebound and capture their FOURTH crown! Don’t forget about Avril waiting in the wings! Be here next Friday and GO SEE SPIDERMAN 3 TONIGHT, FISHES! The original hero come back!
Chachi Out!
