Motown: Martha Reeves and the Vandellas


They would be another choice for a girl group from Motown whose classic hit 'Dancing in the Street' is known worldwide. I don't think we should choose such a famous song as it may have connotations in peoples heads. However they have other songs which are great (and I happen to love..)




I just love this video. Although it's ridiculously stiff and forced it shows the beginnings of what was to come with fairly neat editing. It uses beauty shots and cutaways which are 2 staple things in music videos nowadays. I don't think this song however would work.

They had a few other good songs which might work such as 'Heatwave'



actually thinking about it...this is far too dated and probably wont work...





I love this song, and with an updated beat (which is what we're thinknig about...) it might sound really good...


Also there's 'Nowhere to Run' which is pretty good and fairly famous..
