The art of making music videos has grown and evolved dramatically over the years. Older artists would occasionally record themselves performing their songs on camera for promotion, but the 1980s changed the landscape of music forever when MTV made its debut on television. Now, instead of artists making these videos for occasional promotion, artists could launch their careers with a successful video on MTV. The channel was responsible for making stars out of a number of artists, and even when it seemed that they were falling off, they debuted the show TRL, reigniting popularity in the brand.

Now that YouTube receives an unfathomable amount of traffic each day, music videos from our past and from the present are available for our consumption whenever we like. Channels like MTV and Fuse focus their attention elsewhere these days, but YouTube has helped keep the art of music videos alive and well, and artists can still blow up should there video go viral.

These videos span several genres, and were all huge hits when they were released. Match these videos to their pictures, and we will reveal which legendary singer you are.
