This video was shot early in Katy Perry’s career, as you can probably guess just from the basic and rather simple style of the music video. Long Shot was originally intended to appear on what was intended to be Perry’s second album. Unfortunately, that album was shelved but Long Shot still found an audience when it was covered by Kelly Clarkson.
It is today’s music video of the day because it’s Super Bowl Sunday and, as always, I’m rooting for the long shots, whoever they may be.
Enjoy!
Though this video was directed by Anton Corbijn, it owes an obvious debt to Ingmar Bergman. Death never tires of playing chess, I guess. Does Death play checkers?
Enjoy!
Why hello, Nosferatu!
This video puts me in the mood for October and that’s never a bad thing!
Enjoy!
I absolutely love the retro feel of this video!
Enjoy!
This song should definitely help wake you up.
Enjoy!
If this doesn’t get your week off to a good start than I’m afraid you’re just destined to have a bad week. I take no pleasure in reporting that. It’s just the way that the stars have aligned.
Enjoy!
This is a fun video. Quite frankly, we need more fun videos.
Enjoy!
Good luck with that!

As I point out every January, these are my ten favorite songs of the previous year. Other people who have written for TSL over the years may have very different favorite songs of the year. In fact, check out Necromoonyeti’s list of his 35 top albums!
Anyway, here are my ten favorite songs of the previous year. For the most part, my musical tastes tend to run the gamut from EDM to More EDM. That said, I think there’s perhaps a bit of variety to this year’s list as opposed to previous years. Or maybe not. Who knows? I’m typing this up at one in the morning so, to be honest, I’m lucky that I can even keep straight which year I’m writing about.
Also be sure to check out my favorite songs of (deep breath) 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, and 2011!
