This video is so beautiful. It highlights Adele's beauty, but besides that it doesn't distract from the song itself. It supports it, but the song is still the highlight. It has beautiful visuals, so good that it places on #4, because the video fits so well with the song.
Grimes - Flesh Without Blood/Life in a vivid dream
The other videos in the top 5 mostly stood out for their simplicity, but Grimes video stands out for being all over the top. It features Grimes as Marie Antoinette covered in blood, and Grimes is also featured with angels wings on. We follow her through multiple sets, like a tennis court and a swimming pool. Grimes is really one of a kind, and this video proves it
We had lots and lots of great music videos this year. The most memorable video of this year is most presumably Bad Blood, because of it's many celeb cameo's, but is it #1? No. ... Is it #2? nope. Bad Blood is an okay video, but the vid itself was so overhyped that it was kind of underwhelming when it came out. So who did go into the top 2?
The #2 is....
FKA Twigs - Glass & Patron
This Video is visually striking and beautiful. It's super weird. It depicts FKA giving birth but also dancing. It's the beautiful visuals, great choreography and the amazing outfits that make this video #2.

So that is the #2, but who topped this years list, what video was the best one?
The number #1 is....
Rihanna - Bitch Better Have My Money
That's right! Rihanna tops my favorite music vids of this year. Why? Because it's almost like a movie. It's enjoyable, has great replay-value, is one of a kind and the video makes the song even better. I love that the whole video has a clear story and the execution is so fierce and good.
