R&P- can you think of an example where a female performer really owned the camera in the clip of a song you enjoy?

Virginia by Tift Merritt. Just watch it. 

Alannah Myles  ,  Black Velvet

Male example would be Usher in "You make me wanna " and "Yeah!" he owns the camera in those. Alicia Keys is good in "No One" and "Fallin'" and "Karma", all have pop hooks of Gb5 and B#4 Beyonce' in " Irreplaceable", "Crazy in Love", and "Listen".

Beyonce' is a lot more pop. Christina Aguilera in "Ain't No Other Man", "Hurt", and " I Turn to You".

"The Glamorous Life" - Sheila E.

sure......Katy Perry in "Roar"......when she looked her absolute  FINEST!

Something a little different.

Demi Lovato in the video for the song 'Up'. And it's an old song but Lady miss kier in the video for the song 'Groove is in the heart' by Dee-lite. She could move lol!

I'd go for Kate Bush, the song Babooshka.

Helen Sjöholm sooo own this... Just look at the look of awe she gets from the woman in the background choir. =)
