I'm pretty big on music videos. I really like a lot of 'em. Does anybody else think much of MV's?
Here's some of my favourites...
Oasis - Wonderwall
This is the first music video I have ever seen on TV. I probably would have been about five or six when I first saw it. Also, Oasis was the first band I ever liked.
Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
This song/video is pretty good, I think. It's mainly a performance video, but I like it. I like it so much I remember giving it the ultimate compliment, which was just headbanging to the song itself without saying a word.
Regurgitator - Black Bugs
I really love this video, mainly because it's animated. Well, I've always loved cartoons. Shame that I can't find it on YouTube.
The White Stripes - Seven Nation Army
Really cool riff. Was one of the first songs I learned on bass. And I taught myself how to play it almost instantly after I got it. The video's got some great visuals, too.
Fatboy Slim - Weapon of Choice
I think it's funny, and that Christopher Walken's a good dancer. If I was hosting Rage, and introducing this video, I'd probably imitate said person.
Soundgarden - Black Hole Sun
It's pretty weird, what with all the distorted features and ****...
Audioslave - Cochise
So many fireworks. Thought to be a terrorist attack during filming. Warning: may cause seizures.
Jamiroquai - Virtual Insanity
While I dislike most pop music, I think Jamiroquai is pretty good. As seen in this video, he's also a good dancer. And wouldn't it be cool if you could have a room with a treadmill floor?
Beck - E-Pro
Great use of animation. What's more, it looks like it's done all in one take.
That's all I can think of at the moment. These are some of my favourite videos. What do you fellow TB'ers like? |

Björk: mostly the videos, not so much the music, A+ for innovation though. |

Come to Daddy's alright, but Windowlicker is just wrong. Chicks with guy's faces...that sends my boner into the ground. Not as bad as Rock DJ, though... |

Depeche Mode- Stripped. It's quite dark and frightening with DM members stepping out from the steam of a factory.
New Order- Blue Monday. This video is quite psychadelic, making no sense, with the band members chasing tennis balls, books with moving pictures...........it is Weird. It was also the first music video I can clearly remember and was my first time that I saw Hooky my fave bass player.
Level 42- Lessons In Love. The first L42 video I ever saw.
Joy Division- Love Will Tear Us Apart- this is a performance vide taken in their practice room in Strawberry Studios, Manchester. The misery and pain the band were going through was evident.
The Smiths- There Is A Light That Never Goes Out- classic song.
Electronic- Getting Away With It. This was their first album and it isn't a bad video for a band-directed video.
Erasure- Love To Hate You. I love this song and the dancing done by Andy Bell is simply excellent.
If I think of any more I'll add them.

I saw a video for Blue Monday like up late, and it was like a live performance (probably TOTP) with the original studio version dubbed over it.

EDIT = Regurgitator's Black Bugs video can be found on Youtube now. And I'm also planning to purchase the "Rage Gets Animated" DVD, which has the video on it.
