To Five Music Videos Of 2013

5. Miley Cyrus – "We Can't Stop" 

Yes, we're sure "We Can't Stop" has landed on many worst-video-of-the-year lists. But the people who wrote those lists are just wrong. This is THE video for the modern age: Everything seems like it's been run through an Instagram filter, every shot looks like a really well-taken selfie, and the aforementioned Diane Martel's art direction is just impeccable. That Pepto Bismol bloodletting! The French-fry skull! The money sandwich! The twerking teddy bears! We couldn't stop watching this in 2013. Admit it, neither could you.

4. Bob Dylan – "Like a Rolling Stone"

It took 50 years for Dylan's classic to get an official music video, but it was well worth the wait: That way, the song could undergo a truly modern treatment. This astoundingly inventive interactive clip, by digital media company Interlude, creates an alternate cable television universe where, no matter what channel you tune to, the shows' hosts are lip-synching "Like a Rolling Stone." It's all Bob, all the time, 24/7…and it's definitely must-see TV.

3. Wrecking Ball - Miley Cyrus

One of the most Popular Music Video Of 2013.

2. Gentleman - PSY

Again one of the most popular Music Video of 2013, Amazing and funny video is the reason of its popularity.

1. Capital Cities – "Safe and Sound"

We hope our New Year's Eve party is as jubilant and colorful as this dancetastic tour de force, which just nabbed a well-deserved Grammy nomination for Best Music Video. Rarely does a video so perfectly capture the vibe of a song as this one does. It's the look and sound of pure joy. We dare you to watch this and not smile.
