Amber Mark "Monsoon" (Joe Alexander, dir.)

The video for Monsoon, directed by Joe Alexander, follows Mark and her late mother’s travels through India. Speaking to Fader, the singer said “When I wrote "Monsoon," I always imagined the music video being shot in India. The song had so much to do with my time in India with my mother as well as leaving her in India during the monsoon season to visit my family in NY. It really was a dream come true when I was given the opportunity to shoot in India."

Richard Thorncroft "You Can't Handcuff The Wind" (Julian Barratt, dir.)

OK. This is very British. And very '80s. Yet, also very awesome. (And, yes, British, '80s and awesome can of course co-exist).

Meet actor Richard Thorncroft, who you "know" as the Sexiest Male TV Detective (1988 and 1989) for his role as Bruce Mindhorn, the truth seeking title character with the robotic eye from nonexistant TV show Mindhorn.

Got it? No? Of course. Thorncraft/Mindhorn is actually Julian Barnett of comedic troupe The Mighty Boosh fame,and Mindhorn is a new parody movie that's like an absurdist, post-modern version of Austin Powers.

"You Can't Handcuff The Wind" is Thorncraft's Hasselhoffian hit single, a blast of "erotic power-rock" produced in conjuction with fellow fictional character, Guitarist Terry Belmondo from jazz rock outfit Subtle Glance. 

Lots more details can be had from the faxed press release, which like everything else here, is ridiculous and awesome.

Talisco "Stay (before the picture fades)" (Cloé Bailly, dir.)

For French artist's Talisco's new pop belter Cloé Bailly has conjured up several cases of Enduring Love.

With the camera lingering on the seminal clichéd farewell scene, Cloé captures what happens after the credits roll. Will the lovers accept their fate, a fond farewell and a kiss goodbye? Or something rather more desperate?

Stay (before you fade away) is the latest single to be taken from Talisco’s forthcoming album. It’s an infectious dance-pop tune, guaranteed to stay in your head all day.
