A NEW WEEKLY POST COVERING THE EDITOR'S TOP FIVE MUSIC VIDEOS OF THE PAST WEEK.

Kyosuke Himuro feat. Gerard Way - Safe and Sound: If not for the simple fact that the song was written for "Final Fantasy", any time artists of such caliber collaborate, it usually yields great work.
Frances - Cold Water: The director's concept of combining split screens into one frame is a great visual, and again such great looking work for a low price.
Mojave - Lights Out: A great visual for the occasion that was Earth Hour and also for the upcoming Earth Day; every little thing helps.
Tiny Masters of Today - Skeletons: The fact that they are so young and don't sound like your typical Disney cookie-cutter kid band is great to hear, at least they have their own direction.
Ace Enders and a Million Different People - The Only Thing I Have (The Sign): Great laid back tune with great visuals of the kid changing through all the clothes which really added to the message of the song.
FACT - A Fact of Life: This video was posted during the first week of March, therefore not a pick of the week but more of a special mention. As the post describes, the director put masks on the groups faces, "to put aside all prejudices against the band for being Japanese". Personally it shouldn't be necessary, regardless of where we are from, we all need some distorted electric guitar in our lives.
