Music doesn't get any more beautiful than this.......

Please listen right to the end. Not only does Morten Harket have the voice of an angel, but their songs are incredibly well orchestrated and have meaning.

Sorry Mark, i know this is pop pap, but this is not only an obscure video, but obscure too

This one doesn't really count, as it's music set to film, rather than the other way around. And it's visually more elegant than Apocalypse Now - which stole the concept.

8 1/2 is the single greatest accomplishment in cinema, IMHO.

Check it out. And if you haven't seen this movie, do. In this scene, the film director who has run out of ideas takes some water at a spa...
