As 2011 draws to a close, the J-14 editors reflect back on our favorite music videos from the year:
"Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" (Katy Perry)
"Besides this song being insanely catchy, Katy's alter-ego Kathy Beth Terry's transformation from geek to 80s chic is as eye-catching as the bright clothes she wears. Plus, the celeb cameos rock in this video. I want Kevin McHale to be my knight in shining armor!" --Associate Editor Kim Messina
"Skyscraper" (Demi Lovato)
"Demi Lovato gives such an emtional, yet empowering performance in Skyscraper." --Photo Editor Danielle Kepler
"Without You" (David Guetta ft. Usher)
"I can't get sick of this song, no matter how many times I hit re-play on my iTunes. (I also can't help but smile and sing along every time I hear it!)" --Editorial Associate Katie Amey
"Best Friend's Brother" (Victoria Justice)
"It was such a cute concept and I'm still singing, 'BFB!'" --Assistant Editor Rachel Sheehan
"Jet Lag" (Simple Plan ft. Natasha Bedingfield)
"I don't know what it is about airport videos, but they get to me every time (case in point: Backstreet Boys' 'I Want It That Way'). But the back and forth between Simple Plan's Pierre Bouvier and Natasha's scenes are just so heartfelt." --Editor-in-Chief Rachel Chang
"All I Want For Christmas Is You" (Justin Bieber & Mariah Carey)
"Two great talents combine!" --Designer Tanya Swartz
"Say You Like Me" (We The Kings)
"It's a music video for one of We The Kings' catchiest songs and an interactive video game. I can't think of anything more unique than that." --Photo Assistant Nicole Mazza
