9.1Developed as a "visual album", Beyoncé's songs are accompanied by non-linear short films that illustrate the musical concepts conceived during production.

0.0One of the defining pop groups of the 1980's, the ebullient duo Wham! were chart toppers and award-winners. With their straightforward, infectious dance pop, members George Michael (who went on to become a very successful solo artist) and Andrew Ridgeley became two of the first MTV bred superstars. THE BEST OF WHAM! takes a comprehensive musical look at their illustrious career, and features their historical concert in China (the very first by a Western pop group) and their farewell concert at Wembley Stadium.

7.5Video Rewind by The Rolling Stones is a compilation of video clips recorded between 1972–1984. Instead of just presenting unrelated clips and videos just strung together, it uses a framing 'story', featuring Bill Wyman and Mick Jagger, directed by Julien Temple and includes some video directed by Michael Lindsay-Hogg. It was first released in 1984 on the VHS, Laserdisc, and CED Videodisc format by Vestron home video.
5.0Drawing on VHS tapes of a programme hosted by her mother on Bulgaria’s national television, the filmmaker gives a pop-style and in-depth chronicle of the gentle – even “over-gentle” – 1989 revolution.
10.0Original animated film made for the International Chopin Year. The soundtrack consists of Fryderyk Chopin's music performed by Justyna Steczkowska, Tomasz Stańko and Michał Urbaniak. The author rejects the pompous, exalted, pathos-laden, obligatory admiration that paralyses the possibility of hearing Chopin's music in a fresh way.
8.4Together impossible goals can be reached. Like playing a song as a tribute to your favorite rock band, putting together 1000 musicians playing perfectly in synch. It’s what Rockin’1000 achieved, a group of Italian friends who became a global community bringing musicians from all around the world. We Are The Thousand is the story of how the largest band on the planet came to be: over nineteen thousand musicians, amateurs and pros from every age group and social background, united by one passion: rock’n’roll. This is the story of how the idea of virtuous community can positively influence every single member, encouraging them to pursue their dreams while giving the best they have to offer.
8.0Video album for the punk rock comedy band Green Jellÿ, based on the album of the same name.
4.5Sixth album from the one-man ambient electronica project of Romanian Michael Cretu, who hit the big time in 1991 with the worldwide smash 'Sadeness'. He has since sold millions ofrecords with his fusion of dance and sacred musics and is recognized as one of the originators of the now ubiquitous chillout genre. While this new release remains in much the same vein as before, this time there is somewhat more of a trance influence. Sound is available in Stereo, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS.
