"Ain't No Sunshine" By Tatum Jones

I think what I really liked about this video was that they could have done something completely predictable - but they didn't - and I liked that.



"Say It Again" By Marie Digby

This was just a fun, quirky, well produced pop video, and you really couldn't ask for anything more for a debut video from a YouTube star who made it big.



Blue Scholars "Coffee And Snow"

A late entry for the post it was just a smooth vibe with a slick video to match.



"Elephants" By Rachael Yamagata

Dark. Moody. Shot really well. I just couldn't leave this off the list.



"Bag of Hammers" By Thao with the Get Down Stay Down

While I went back and forth between this and Shanghai Restoration's "Miss Shanghai" and "Pace of Light", in the end, this just won me over.



Honorable Mentions: "Dance Like Michael Jackson" By Far*East Movement, "Miss Shanghai" and "Pace Of Light" By Shanghai Restoration, "Kokoro (I Fall to Pieces)" By The Slants, "Be Easy (Koi Naa)" By Nivla, "My Time With You" By Kina Grannis and David Choi.
