Queen: Bohemian Rhapsody- (1975) Was considered to be the first ever music video released. Although there is still footage of old bands performing, they were still not considered to be music videos.
The first ever music video to be shown on MTV was 'Buggles: Video killed the radio star' which was released in 1979. From then on MTV started playing more music videos and were from then on known for playing the well known songs on video.
The genre's of music changed from the 1970's to todays date. The most popular genre of music has always been pop up until this date, this is then followed by Rock music, Country music, hip hop music and finally the Instrumental Music. Most music videos up until this date have all been of a performance type style as they all involve the artist in the video singing the words to the song. Although, there have been many music videos using animation as a way to get the point of the song across.
