Love your videos! Call Me Maybe gets my vote (as any pop song I remember from between 2009 and 2012 would).

Frank MalDonato

I'm not entirely sure where to leave suggestions, but I've got one/three. I've always loved Metallica, and Fade To Black, Welcome Home (Sanitarium), and One each use an arpeggiated B chord on the guitar. I would love to see an analysis of one of these, or all of them with regard to the way the instrument influences songwriting :D

Andy Jones

I'm worried that if we pick Never Going To Give You Up, we'll switch to a totally different song half way through…

A few suggestions (is this where I put them?): Sam Smith & Kim Petras – “Unholy”; Madonna – “Borderline”; “Mine” from Sayonara Wild Hearts; Three Dog Night – “Joy to the World”

Arania Webb

London Calling, absolutely. But I look at the calendar, and I live in fear.

Rick definitely has a leg up on this one, but I think that’s be true any month on the internet.

Andrew Barham

A “One” breakdown would be awesome

Alex

Four days is really short notice but Rick Astley would make a great April Fools video.

Mark M

Pick NGGYU, get Free Bird

Sagitta

Maybe to Musical Youth's song of the same name?

StephAgosta

Small typo, it's Jepsen, not Jepson

Douglas Goldstein

The only one to play a Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade

Paul Grodt

For some reason, The Boys Are Back has never sat right with me. I think it's a combination of feeling like a lack of energy in the vocals and the fact that it repeats the title line multiple times in the many choruses. I wonder if it would work better to my ear if instead done in more of a faster punk rock style...

I'm here for Joy to the World

Really hope to see a video on Paranoid Android someday.

Marc Testart

I'm here for Borderline!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thormation

Dissecting the most musical meme in the world is waaaay overdue. I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling.

Patrick Hodson

I could've sworn you'd already taken apart Smooth by Santana and Rob Thomas, but just now I tried to find it and it's not there. That would be a good one I'd say

12tonevideos

It was on the poll at one point, but sadly it never won.

itgoesyuh

I'd love to see you bring back the Metallica - Battery option, I think it's a good choice

NattyCat

GUYS C'MON we need the Call Me Maybe 12Tone video! We gotta band together to make it happen (":

StephAgosta

Seconded! If not this time I hope it'll show up again in the future. Maybe even Run Away With Me.

Samuel Ollesh

Totally would have fell for it too. Rick roll us in the video. Start with Call me Maybe and then BAM! We are no longer strangers to love.

Matt Deeds

Numb by Linkin Park - Why does this song touch me so deeply? It doesn't resonate with my personal experiences, but somehow the pain being expressed still feels so real.
