While it likely is nothing more than a revelation about my advanced age, I saw a classic Jag the other day (believe it was an XJ6) which reminded me of the Whitesnake, "Here I go Again" video.

For any punk who knows 1980s music videos, it goes without saying that this vehicle provided a fantastic dance stage for Tawny Kitaen.

Anyway, the entire episode got me to thinking about how cars and music videos have been inextricably linked from the get go. Some of the more memorable ones from this old man's perspective include:

The Mustang in Dennis DeYoung's painful song/video "Desert Moon"
The Mercedes Roadster (I think) in Chris Brown's relatively recent "Forever" video
The DeLorean in the "Back to the Future Movies" movies and accompanying music videos
At least 15 videos mention or show the "Escalade"

Against this backdrop, this all got me to wondering, what is the most memorable car in a specific music video in the history of music videos? I have obviously tipped my hat - the Jag. Care to dispute this one?
