Music Video Research

I have looked at this video as i think it shows how design and music link together in the 1980's. the video is of Peter Gabriel's- Sledgehammer, it is one of the most watched videos ever produced. 
"Sledgehammer" is a song by British musician Peter Gabriel from his 1986 album So. It hit number one in Canada on 21 July 1986 where it spent four weeks; number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States on 26 July 1986. The song's music video has won a number of awards, including a record nine MTV Awards at the 1987 MTV Video Music Awards, and Best British Video at the 1987 Brit Awards. Gabriel was also nominated for three Grammy Awards: Best Male Rock Vocal Performance, Song of the Year, and Record of the Year. As of 2011, "Sledgehammer" is the most played music video in the history of MTV.
