The New Romance video was great 90s teen TV drama nostalgia with a surprising bit of edge.  You're clearly drawn to colorful videos with a spunky sense of humor to them. I like that your videos were all very entertaining and had a clear, identifiable theme that I could apply to you.  |

I like the videos you chose. Very retro style, colorful, and upbeat. Is this an appropriate place to say I absolutely love “Stuck Like Glue” and it never gets old for me?  Good job. |

I don't think I ever watched the full Starships video before your entry -- I always just judged it off the gifs. Nicki's implants are SERVING. The entry featured a nice mix of old and new videos. You like videos featuring waterfalls. I didn't really get much about you beyond that from the collection of videos, and I do think all of these artists have other stronger videos. But it was a cute entry in total, and it was nice that you kept it to just four videos. |

Went through the first two videos and was like this is going to be a fun upbeat list… then I got to Lana. It’s a good song, don’t get me wrong, but it feels out of place. Overall, good job. I love “Soak Up The Sun”.

I love your collection of videos. I'm glad you like both Single Ladies and Call Your Girlfriend, they're pretty similar and some ATLRers seem to think people have to drastically prefer one over the other. You predominately like dance videos. I'm impressed by the breadth of your selections, I wouldn't have expected Fiona Apple and Bjork videos in your entry. Great job.

Eclectic taste but not sure if you like the music videos or just the dance routines. I think we may have a difference in opinion.

Bjork did a broadway sounding song? Oh goodness. Overall it’s a pretty eclectic mix of music videos. I like it, good job. Oh, and “Gossip Folks”! *high fives screen*[/IMG]

The Go Away video is so overdramatic. Her facial expression during the first 30 seconds.  Maybe it just seems like that since I don't understand what they're saying. Very cool video, though. Yessss @ Confessions of a Broken Heart, Lindsay's underrated singing career masterpiece. When you throw Your Body into the mix, it's clear you like videos with violence.  I like that you juxtaposed the emotional pain of the 2NE1 and Lindsay video with the femme fatale personas of Britney and Christina. |

They all have a sort of dark theme, all dealing with men. Either loving or sad about the relationship with them. I always have to appreciate Lindsay for releasing and directing a music video based on her parents relationship. Now I wonder if she’ll make one about herself, that’d be interesting. Good job. |

Fantastic formatting, it's nice that you were creative with that. You have a clear cartoony video theme to your selection. And, yes, most of them are trippy. Thanks for including the lyrics, too! You did a good job going above and beyond without breaking the rules. Also, you made me remember how good Break the Ice is.  |

Ha, creative way to share your videos (thanks for having the labels!). We're not judging that though. I think this list describes you well.

You and Rihanna need to go smoke a blunt or something. You both just love to get high don’t you. Really good entry, and I love had you made it creative. So cartoonish, colorful, psychedelic. Good job. Just keep it cute on the blunts  |

 Very well done. Great job pulling out videos with special meanings and showing us what you like about them. I dunno if I like "Awakeness" for Wide Awake ( ), but I won't hold it against you. I do wish you had added a link to the actual video. However, the creativity behind your presentation makes up for any flaws. |

Something different, but yet affective. You didn’t give the actual music videos, which I wish you did but like in a drop down box, but you wrote the theme of each video that you liked about it. Good job!

A few too many videos. Belinda is such a hottie. I've always liked the Glamorous and Creep videos. Generally, it's a good collection but there isn't a clear statement or connection to you. I don't learn anything about you as a member/person through watching the videos.

Broken Bells - "Ghost Inside!" It's like you tried to find good music outside of the realm and on top of that, good videos too! I also like how you have a like variety to that collection.

Very eclectic, you gave a little bit of everything it seemed like. A nice little mixture with some old and new. Good job. I’ll leave my comments with, “So I Creep…. YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH”
