#2 Physical – Olivia Newton-JohnThis 1981 video is very interesting and ahead of its time, as it makes a constant analogy between sex and exercise. In fact, the location of the music video is a gym.

Because of this play of images and words, the video was censored in some channels. In addition, it has scenes that show a homosexual romance between two men, so it was extremely controversial.

It is not really a highly innovative music video that has marked a before and after in visual matters in the 80s. But the song it brings to life is very memorable and so is the look of Sting singing it.#4 White Wedding – Billy IdolThis 1982 video was one of the reasons why Billy Idol became part of the pop culture of the most excessive decade of the 20th century.

This music video is from 1985 and in it we see Tom Petty characterized as the mad hatter from Alice in Wonderland. The creepy part of the story is that at one point in the video, Tom ends up devouring the poor girl.
