"Pop-videos" are even older: In the 1890s (!) music publishers send pluggers into nickelodeons (where customers could listen to phonographs with earphones) with so called "song slides": illustrations of the songs and/or the lyrics.
Beginning around 1910 Harry Cohn and Carl Laemmle produced song slides as (silent) films. The music was provided by the piano players or (later) orchestras in the cinemas.

Forget Repugnant Party Pooper Paul.
Here's the 1968 original full color great Pop-Vid
B. Ryan 'Eloise' with split-screen tricks. (YT now with neat comment from an 'Eloise').
So, why does our bent-meeja(is there a straight-1?) keep rammin' our braintubes with supposed 1st ever Pop-Vid "Bohemian effin RhapSODy" Queen - great tho they art ? (OK it woz among the first no-celluloid/all-tape Vidz - BIG effin deal !)
The very first Pop-Vids were way back inserts in early 1930s first-talkies, and by 1945 Chicago 'Panoram Soundies' specialist made Juke-Box films, followed by French-made 'Scopitone' & Italian-made 'Cinebox'. Mercury, est. Chicago, 1945 among the first recording companies with artists making promo-vids. The Big Bopper, Nashville '58, Mercury-sub Starday, wrongly cited as 'the first' but may have coined the term 'Music Video' adapted from showbiz journal 'Variety' with heading 'Video'.
Tells you where Democratic and Republican books on Amazon are selling!

Twinz eh ?
When a bent-cop(is there a straight-1?)asked me about some minor-offence(a MORRIS CAR, U dirty B's) I lied, " My twin was driving." And when the same cop came back to rightly nick me, he asked why I hadn't told the truth before. So I said " But U didn't ask me before, that was my twin !"
