EARLIER MUSIC VIDEOS BY JEFF HELLYER

All songs are original unless noted and linked otherwise.

A star-crossed couple, unstuck across time. Shot in Brazil at the amazing (and condemned) former sugar processing plant, the Usina Santa Bárbara, 2013. Co-starring Aline D.

Words by Leny Hellyer, music by Jeff Hellyer, and arrangement by Luciano Antonio. A song for Mother's Day, "Mom, My Dear Angel" is a celebration of mothers and motherhood. Featuring photos and videos of moms—our own and friends of ours. English subtitles.

Cover of "Navegar (outra Vez Me Vejo Só Com Meu Deus)," originally by Paulo Roberto. Sung by old friend Owen West, with harmonies by us. In Portuguese, 2013.

I decided to turn a fun, holiday-time skiing trip to Christmas Mountain, The Dells, Wisconsin, 2015, into a mini-music video, featuring part of my song "Think of Me."

Flying in/voando em São Pedro, São Paulo, Brazil! Music/Musica: "A Promise" from my/do meu CD "NEVER GOODBYE." Woo-HOOO! From 2014.

A protest song from 2005, by me as Jeff "Paznik" (Peacenik). Dedicated to Cindy Sheehan, who lost her son Casey in Iraq in 2004, and she wanted to know what it was all for. The "main in charge" in question is ... George W. Bush, btw.

A cover of a song originally by Toque no Altar/Fernandinho,

with religious metaphors and spiritual allegories. In Portuguese, from 2014.

Pretty easy to figure out who this music video was for! From 2012, for Obama-Biden's re-election.

Just a regular workout on the treadmill,
this day featuring my out-of-breath version of
Mumford and Sons' "I Will Wait."

Written with Leny and also our Brazilian niece Daiane, "Happy Day Together" features vocals by Daiane. From 2011.

A fun new version of Happy Birthday! Featuring my wonderful niece and goddaughter, Gina, along with us, and my musical keyboard take on the traditional birthday song. From 1996.

Actually a (very-)short film I made in 1992, shot on actual 16mm and 8mm film, and which I edited on 3/4" U-matic videocassette. So ok, it's here on my music video page because I also did the ominous background music onmy old, long-since-broken Casio! A silly play on words here (Churchill: "You must SINK the BISMARCK!") takes us back to WWII; sure it does! Shot with Steve Stofflet, both of us freezing and walking very slowly on ice with our film equipment in sub-zero weather on a dangerously icy January day at the shoreline of Lake Michigan. Featuring my father, Chicago radio and television legend Art Hellyer, as the passionately emphatic Churchill-style narrator. This aired on TV's Bravo in the U.S., and SBS-TV, Australia!
