Hi!
 
Someone from the Dark Gaffan Ages please correct me if I'm wrong, but I
don't think anyone's come up with an "official" poll like this before...
so yes, I too will bite:
 
>1. best overall video
 
Running Up That Hill (the real version)
 
>2. best video "early years" (1978-1980)
 
Breathing
 
>3. best video "glory years" (1981-1987)
 
Experiment IV
 
>4. best video "quiet years" (1988-1994)
 
The Sensual World
 
>5. best hairdo
 
Running Up That Hill
 
>6. best costume
 
The Sensual World
 
>7. best dance
 
Running Up That Hill
 
>8. best special effects
 
Experiment IV
 
>9. worst video
 
And we have a tie!  "Moments of Pleasure" and "The Man With The Child In
His Eyes"  
 
>10. song you wished there was a video for
The Red Sh -- oh, wait. :) The Ninth Wave (is that cheating?)
 
>11. best head apparel (hat)
The Big Sky -- The little elf hat she has on when she's pointing the flashlight
up at the sky.  When it falls off her head it's toxically cute! :)
 
>12. favorite "guest" artist
Donald Sutherland (Cloudbusting) -- for the fact that he actually did it,
if nothing else :)
 
And my own arbitrary additional category:
 
13. Best Final Shot In A Video
 
Here again we have a tie:  The pulling-the-bow ending to RUTH and the final
teasing glance she gives the camera at the end of The Sensual World.  Both
do quite nasty things to me, and have done for a very long time...
