Must-see MVs
RONAN KEATING
IN YOUR ARMS
If this doesn't make you swoon within 30 seconds, nothing will.
The Irish singer from Boyzone pours his heart and soul into the MV as he plays his guitar and croons.
Meanwhile, video footage from his wedding last August to Australian TV producer Storm Uechtritz in Scotland is projected onto the background.
Keating even pauses to watch the scenes with a teary-eyed smile at certain moments.
Uechtritz is one lucky woman.

I FORGIVE IT ALL
When you have Oscar winner Anthony Hopkins in an MV co-directed by US actor Sean Penn, you know it's going to be good.
The veteran Welsh actor is shown driving and walking through the poorer areas of Los Angeles, sticking out as an image of wealth.
He returns to a small apartment and unleashes his acting prowess, escalating from emotional exhaustion to anger in a few seconds.
Interpret from the US country rock band's latest offering what you will, but Hopkins' brilliance is crystal clear.
ALESSIA CARA
SCARS TO YOUR BEAUTIFUL
This might be one of the most important MVs of all time.
The Canadian singer relegates herself to the background as she trains the spotlight on various people of different shapes and sizes, each opening up about what is perceived to be their physical defects or flaws.
It ends with an incredibly powerful message.
This is a must-watch for anyone who has had insecurities about their image.
