Since it is now December, and we are a mere 20 shopping days away from Christmas, the Retro Videos of the Week will be holiday-themed for the rest of the year. (It's safe to assume I won't be posting anything on Boxing Day.)
The first video is technically outside my artificial parameters for Retro Video of the Week, the end of which I set as my graduation from college in May 2000. However, this song was released later that year as part of the soundtrack to the live-action version of How the Grinch Stole Christmas, with Jim Carrey in the titular role. Faith Hill's "Where Are You Christmas?" is a song that I have never heard until five minutes ago. But hey, it's a video from the MTV era, so it counts. It apparently charted on the Billboard Hot 100 (#65), the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart (#10), and the Billboard Country chart (#26).
Interesting tidbit: Taylor Momsen, who played Cindy Lou Who in the film, is now the lead singer of a pretty awesome metal band called The Pretty Reckless.
