Not only gangsta rappers but also quite decent musicians like to show off a cool car in a video. Moreover, sometimes a car not only becomes a background or prop for a video but also plays a key role in the plot. We have carefully selected for you five of the most entertaining clips with high automotive artistic value.
We often see music videos or movies on our TV screens or our phones that feature cool cars. Some people have dreamed of driving a certain car model since childhood, but buying a car like a Lamborghini or Cadillac is a very expensive pleasure. Fortunately, today car rental is developed all over the world, and in Dubai, rental has reached a completely different level. There you can easily rent classic cars from old films and clips at an affordable price using classic car rental dubai.
For extreme sports enthusiasts, desert quad biking dubai may be suitable, where you can enjoy extreme trips through the desert. Rent a luxury car, sports car, or SUV to fully enjoy driving along wide highways among skyscrapers. Now let’s move on to the clips and see what interesting cars were there. Maybe you will even be able to ride one in the future!
Jamiroquai – Cosmic Girl
The British funk band Jamiroquai has repeatedly aired videos with sports cars. It’s not surprising! Team leader Jay Kay is a real “gasoline head”: he is passionate about cars and has amassed an impressive collection of rare and expensive cars. Actually, the video for the song Cosmic Girl from the album Traveling Without Moving is pure car driving – and nothing more. During the filming of the video, the Lamborghini Diablo supercar was scrapped for decommissioning, and not the standard version, but the “limited” SE30, of which only 150 were produced. Today you can easily rent this iconic car with the help of a rental company. Other cars also appeared in the video: a Ferrari F355 Berlinetta and a Ferrari F40, with the latter being provided for filming by Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason, also a big fan of fast technology. By the way, he himself was driving his Ferrari at the time of filming.
The Cardigans – My Favorite Game
Lead singer of the Swedish team “Cardigans” Nina Persson, accompanied by her stuffed cat Felix, practices dangerous driving on a highway somewhere in the American Mojave Desert, driving a 1974 Cadillac Eldorado convertible. By the way, cars of this era are very popular in video clips and photos, and for such purposes, they are easiest to rent. She very cleverly uses cobblestones picked up on the side of the road as cruise control. The trip does not end well: the Cadillac crashes into a Ford Econoline van in which the rest of the Cardigans are traveling.
OK Go – Needing/Getting
The alternative rock band OK Go became famous not so much for its music as for its creative video clips. In one of them, the Chevrolet Sonic hatchback not only plays the role of a means of transportation but even serves as a musical instrument. All sorts of sound production devices were attached to the car, which works when the car moves along a specially built track. In general, it is absolutely pointless to describe this performance in words – you have to see it once.
M.I.A. – Bad Girls
British singer of Tamil origin Mathangi Arulpragasam (better known as M.I.A.) shot a video for the song Bad Girls in 2012, which received the Video of the Year award at both the MTV Video Music Awards and the Grammys. What is remarkable about this work? The clip was filmed in an Arabian setting, where oriental girls behave inappropriately, drifting cars and performing all sorts of stunt tricks. The video featured such cars as the Alfa Romeo 156, BMW third series (in E36 and E46 bodies), Mercedes-Benz E-Class (W210), as well as the “pumped up” Peugeot 404 Break of 1965.
Calvin Harris – We’ll Be Coming Back
A Scottish musician and DJ (are they not the same thing?) with the pseudonym Calvin Harris (actually his name is Adam Richard Viles) shot a video for one of his compositions, where a law enforcement officer on a quite modern Yamaha YZF-R1 motorcycle is chasing robbers in rather classic sports cars Ferrari 512 BB and Porsche 911. By the way, the Porsche 911 has become a cult car in many areas and is probably one of the most recognizable cars. Today, such a car can be rented at a very low price. Judging by the ending of the video, the policeman turns out to be a werewolf, and it’s not a fact that he’s in uniform.
