Sometimes, you’re just hanging out with your best friend Heidi Klum and a party breaks out.  Sofi and Heidi reminded me of myself and my BFF, Evelyn, which I think is why I enjoyed this video.

Plus, you never know when the pizza delivery guy might turn out to be a kickass DJ!

This video, which was taken at a 1982 concert in St. Louis, is as close as we have for a music video for Remember the Heroes.  Co-written by Journey keyboardist Jonathan Cain, this song is Sammy Hagar’s tribute to the men and women who have served this country, many of whom have made the ultimate sacrifice.

There aren’t many Memorial Day rock song out there.  Trust Sammy Hagar to do the day and it meaning justice.

This video features the tragic Layne Staley at his best.  This would be the final music video that he would film with Alice in Chains.  Again was a moderate hit for the group, though it was also nominated for a Grammy for Best Hard Rock Performance.

Director George Vale has also worked with Our Lady Peace, The Tea Party, Danko Jones, Stars, and Broken Social Scene.

You and me both, Priest, you and me both.

Rob Halford has said that this song is about “freedom.”  Once you are on the highway, you can go anywhere you want.  With it being Memorial Day weekend, a lot of people are going to be taking advantage of that freedom today.

This video was one of the man to be directed by Julien Temple.  Temple will probably always be best known for his work with the Sex Pistols.
