‘Music For The Dancers’ N°333 – Vintage 2000s Music Videos
Garbage's "Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go)" mixes quirky glam-pop with retro-futuristic vibes, featuring Steve Marker's tuba through a wah-wah pedal and Daniel Shulman's groovy bassline. Its playful energy earned solid global chart positions, peaking at No. 7 in Australia and No. 8 in Italy, thanks partly to a clever ad campaign. The eccentric Dawn Shadforth-directed video amplifies its quirky charm, nodding to pop-art and manga influences.
Meanwhile, Dirty Vegas’ "Days Go By" pairs wistful acoustic roots with polished house beats, gaining major traction through a Mitsubishi commercial and earning a Grammy in 2003. On the other end, Safri Duo’s percussion-heavy anthem "Played-A-Live (The Bongo Song)" electrified dance floors worldwide, selling 1.5 million copies. Standouts like Hi Tack’s "Say Say Say [Waiting 4 U]" reimagine classic hooks with modern house production flair, while Ice MC’s 1994 Eurodance hit "Think About the Way" wraps rapid raps and Alexia’s soaring vocals in iconic '90s club energy.
