When The Wandering Hearts&#39; arrive in a one-horse town to do&nbsp;a show, there&#39;s only one problem. There are no&nbsp;people, let alone horses, to watch them.Michael Baldwin plonks the Hearts in a Wild West ghost town in his video&nbsp;for Devil. But then the band&#39;s rollicking performance gets the ghosts to come out and play.&nbsp;

Imelda May joins everyday superwomen on a march through Brixton Market in London in this rousing one-shot video directed by Laura Scrivano - her second video for the artist &ndash; for Should&#39;ve Been You.Imelda has explained that she was inspired by the recent Women&rsquo;s March in reaction to Donald Trump becoming&nbsp;US President.&nbsp;&ldquo;I wanted to ask the question &lsquo;who takes care of us?&#39; We are 50% of the world and it&rsquo;s the people in power&rsquo;s responsibility to take care of women as well,&quot; she says.She has also shed her old rockabilly style for a more down-to-earth look while keeping a slightly retro pop sound, and she really makes it work for her here - and she is well supported by a well-cast range&nbsp;of hardworking London&nbsp;women. Scrivano, in her second video for the artist, has done a great job, making something essentially political but also entertaining.&nbsp;Inspirational stuff for a very hummable song.&nbsp; &nbsp;

Rhys Lewis walks through city streets and sings Living In The City, a&nbsp;meditation on urban living in this visual by MVA award-winner Rafe Jennings - now just known as Rafe.With a song all about the bittersweet nature of the big city lifestyle, the video&nbsp;combines the artists&#39; performance wandering through the city while&nbsp;fellow-city dwellers&nbsp;from different walks of life express themselves through movement.&nbsp;By rendering these emotions visible through dance, Rafe&nbsp;blows&nbsp;some life into this introverted&nbsp;struggle and&nbsp;gives a visually&nbsp;expressive dimension to the song.&nbsp;

Laura Scrivano, the latest signing over at Kode Media for music video and commercial representation, recently travelled to Paris to shoot an intimate and&nbsp;emotional performance from Imelda May.Shot entirely on film, it also marks a major change in tone and image for the singer. Gone is the big rockabilly sound and equivalent colourful retro look. This is very different indeed.&nbsp;

It&#39;s a very long time since Madness started mucking around in their music videos. And they are still doing it, as this proves&nbsp;- with just as much dressing up, but none of the flying around on wires.The video for Can&#39;t Touch Us Now, the title track from their latest album, reflects their latterday fascination with Music Hall - perhaps the music video of its day. But animation company Bolder Creative also drops them into animated environments: a cut and paste version of London&#39;s landmarks old and new.Using bespoke vintage Victorian etchings and illustrations to compliment the album campaign,&nbsp;you could definitely describe the effect as Pythonesque. The influence of Terry Gilliam&#39;s animations just goes on and on...

Madness 'Can't Touch Us Now' by Bolder Creative

Madness-'Can't-Touch-Us-Now'-by-Bolder-Creative

Jim Canty&#39;s video for Madness&#39; first single in three years tells the story of a complex and hypocritical protagonist: the eponymous Mr. Apples.Using cool set design, some almost Vaudevillian visual effects, and with band sax player Lee Thompson playing the role of the blustering antihero,&nbsp;as told through a conversation between him and Suggs as his sceptical psychoanalyst.Never a band to take themselves too seriously, the video mixes some great imagery with some very tongue-in-cheek performances from all involved.

After a long time focussing on their commercial work, Arni and Kinski show what music videos have been missing with this lovely&nbsp;showcase&nbsp;for Norwegian singer Aurora.The Icelandic directing team made their name with unforgettable videos for their countrymen&nbsp;Sigur Ros more than a decade ago. Now they have returned to their homeland to provide&nbsp;the setting for I Went Too Far, and to frame a powerful symbol of the emotional torment and regret&nbsp;at the heart of the song: a seemingly endless ladder, emerging straight out of the sea, and from a mossy cave.Beautifully shot by DoP Kevin Phillips &ndash; who travelled from Mexico to work with Arni and Kinski on the project &ndash; the locations provide the video with that unmistakeable otherworldly quality that not only works for their visual device, its perfect for the elfin Aurora. She&#39;s quite&nbsp;otherworldly too, and (as with her previous videos) she&nbsp;gives a tremendously heartfelt performance here. She could turn out to be the real thing.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Young singer Aurora is certainly wired for the future in her video for Running With The Wolves. In this dystopian vision of the future by directing team&nbsp;Scratch, she plays an escapee from the city, caught in the no-mans land between&nbsp;the concrete jungle and the natural world.She&#39;s also hooked up with wires-bonds that lead back to the city - embedded in her skin (fine prosthetics&nbsp;work here by Karen Spencer&nbsp;at Milennium FX. But ultimately&nbsp;Aurora cannot bear&nbsp;the prospect of being dragged back to the city and makes a dramatic escape as the song builds to its resounding crescendo...

Calum Macdiarmid has directed this stirring, beautiful film for Melody Gardot&rsquo;s new single Preacherman &ndash; taken from her forthcoming album The Current Man &ndash;&nbsp;&nbsp;inspired by the racially motivated murder of Emmett Till, a 14-year-old boy who was killed in 1955, 60 years ago this August.Emmett Till&#39;s murder became a seminal event in 20th century American history, many believing it contributed to the start of the American civil rights movement, and the video was made in association with the Emmet Till Legacy Foundation, which educates young children about racism in the United States.Calum Macdiarmid does proper justice to the&nbsp;tragic story by employing a&nbsp;sensitive&nbsp;and compassionate angle with his direction.&nbsp;
