So, I saw the Knights of Cydonia video, and I thought it was completely awesome. Though that might be due to the fact I'm a fan of shitty 70's western and sci-fi B movies. In any event, I began to wonder what other sorts of videos I've missed over the years. I haven't really kept up at all in like, a decade. All the god damn videos on MTV just consisted of the band jumping around and playing at some random place. Boring. So, I figured I'd make a thread where everybody can post their favorite music videos, through the power of youtube or what ever. I'd really like this not to degenerate into art fag slap fighting over music taste, so please keep that down (though I suppose if the song sucks that will hurt the video a bit). I'll get it started. This list is no way inclusive of anything, and only consist of a bunch of random videos I can think of in my drunken stupor, to get things rolling: Muse - Knights of Cydonia: Absolutly love this video. But again, might be because I'm a fan of the genre they are spoofing. Fatboy Slim - Weapon of Choice: I don't think I need to say anything else  Beastie Boys - Sabatoge: Classic from my youth. Along the same lines as Knights of Cydonia really. Genesis - Land of Confusion: I loved this when I was a child because of the puppets. I loved it more when I grew up because of the political commentary, heh. Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer: I also loved this as a child because he does shit thats funny to kids. Still stands up to time IMO. Also see: pretty much every other music video he made. Cake - The Distance: I don't know why, but I always like this one. Just the reactions that the animals have when he runs by. But probably just a lot of nostalgia from my youth, heh. |

Haha, awesome, thanks. I saw that video loooong ago on Beavis and Butthead, and always wanted to track it down again (but I had no idea who the fuck did the song or even what it sounded like). |

I'd never seen that Knights video so we are even. I love the Col. Wilma Deering outfit she has on at the end.

Primus also has a pretty cool music video for their version of The Devil Went Down to Georgia (though I defiantly like the original song better than their version): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FRtkek-Et4&feature=relatedAlso Schild, your right. Gnarls Barkley makes some pretty awesome videos, thanks for posting those (I really really liked the Smiley Faces video). And thanks for reminding me about the Hooked on a Feeling video.  What was the theme with the live performance of Crazy though? I didn't really understand what the theme of the outfits they wore were suppose to be... |

KISS I Love It Loud! One heckuva rock anthem and still a cool video. ACDC You Shook Me All Night Long Probably helped influence my love of girls on bicycles and bulls, plus they rock! Y&T Summertime Girls OMG! Did we all look that goofy back then? No wonder each generation makes fun of how the "old man threads." Billy Idol Dancing With Myself Not sure, but I think he saved the world from zombies...still is rocking. Joan Jett & The Blackhearts Crimson & Clover It was 1980 something and she was hot as hell in this video. REM Furry Happy Monsters wish I was stoned when I saw this :) Kenny Rogers The Gambler Jim Henson was a genius. Biz Markie Just a Friend My kid hates it when I sing it like him  Sam Kinison with my theme song of the crazy ass bitches I end up with.... Wild Thing Plus the bands with him rocked! I miss Sam... |

That Y&T video gave me the motivation I need to clean out my closet.
Second, I love AC/DC. You never have to guess what any of their songs are about.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lEsLcGB7Vo - Boards of Canada - Dayvan Cowboy Little information about the video: On August 16, 1960 he (Joseph Kittinger) made the final jump from the Excelsior III at 102,800 feet (31,300 m). Towing a small drogue chute for stabilization, he fell for 4 minutes and 36 seconds reaching a maximum speed of 618 mph [1] (988 km/h or 274 m/s) before opening his parachute at 18,000 feet (5,500 m). Pressurization for his right glove malfunctioned during the ascent, and his right hand swelled to twice its normal size.[1] He set historical numbers for highest balloon ascent, highest parachute jump, longest drogue-fall (4 min), and fastest speed by a human through the atmosphere[2].

Sam Kinison with my theme song of the crazy ass bitches I end up with.... Wild Thing Plus the bands with him rocked! I miss Sam... That video triggered an acid flashback. Ah, Jessica with your enormous fake ta-tas. |

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

They sure grabbed all the gay dancers they could find for this one! That's pretty funky. And Paelos is in that one too! Edit: to add more comments |
