Music videos

Unlike many popular musicians, Kokia does not have very many music videos.^[8] She has three main eras of music videos: her initial Pony Canyon era clips (1998), videos filmed when under Gai Records management (2000–2002) and videos filmed while working with Mother Land management (2003–2006). Since switching to her self-managed label Anco&co, Kokia has only filmed one music video, "The Woman," while in the Tunisian Safari.^[8][9]

Kokia's Pony Canyon videos were featured in the DVD on Kokia Complete Collection 1998–1999.^[10] Her Mother Land videos were compiled together and released as Jewel: The Best Video Collection in 2006.^[11] Her Gai Records videos have not been released to DVD.
