music is on its knees. killed by the internet. music videos are pretty worthless these days
though sex still sells hence the miley video and blurred lines. but no one is buying the albums like they used to after watching the video

artists no longer get record companies paying for videos or much promotion anymore , hence why so many pay for it themselves. i think jackson used to.
or if you got a crap song do a miley then your get noticed. but to be fair mercury dressed as a woman for break free. britney madonna etc have always done risky videos , prince etc. its nothing new.
i like videos they can be very good with free you tube and other sites they should always do them as its good and cheap promotion.
saw a springsteen one the other day called dream baby dream just amazing use of a video very emotional stuff.. also lana del reys ride video was great with that intro.

i hate and i mean hate boy band videos its just so fake.
