Giuseppe Zangara Posted May 29, 2004 Report Posted May 29, 2004 "Rock DJ" was a great video. I liked the song, too.
Murmuring Beast Posted May 30, 2004 Report Posted May 30, 2004 The Buggles should win it. The rest is shit.
spiny norman Posted May 30, 2004 Report Posted May 30, 2004 Whoops, I missed The Buggles. And true, Rock DJ ain't half bad.

Guest MissMattitude Posted May 30, 2004 Report Posted May 30, 2004 Sid Vicious - My Way Weezer - Buddy Holly Supergrass - Pumping On Your Stereo Jamiroquai - Virtual Insanity The Specials - Ghost Town Boomtown Rats - I don't Like Mondays Queen - I Want To Break Free Beastie Boys - Sabotage Blur - Coffee And TV Bob Dylan - Subterranean Homesick Blues They don't have the best Blur video (The Universal) or the best Nirvana video (Heart Shaped Box) and they don't have "Black Hole Sun" by Soundgarden or "Jeremy" by Pearl Jam.
Lord of The Curry Posted May 30, 2004 Report Posted May 30, 2004 While "Protection" is a badass vid I think that "Teardrop" kills it. Was that one even nominated?
k thx Posted May 30, 2004 Author Report Posted May 30, 2004 Protection is a better video than Teardrop IMHO, but Teardrops definately te better song.
PLAGIARISM! Posted May 30, 2004 Report Posted May 30, 2004 "Rock DJ" was a great video. I liked the song, too. You bastard. But yeah, the video is good.
Guest Crazy Dan Posted May 30, 2004 Report Posted May 30, 2004 Man this is why I hate my cable company, I don't get Channel 4. Where is the location it is offered, or company which carries it? I heard of Massive Attack by luck, my local radio station was running the most influential albums weekend, and they had two albums. I managed to listen, and I really dig them. I like trip hop, and they make some awesome songs. Besides Protection, I do have teardrops, which I love, are there any other Massive Attack songs I should check out? And We're not going to take it - Twisted Sister should get some love.
The Mandarin Posted May 30, 2004 Report Posted May 30, 2004 What's the Sid Vicious "My Way" video like? I haven't seen it. If it has clips from Goodfellas in it, then it obviously is one of the greatest music videos ever.
jimmy no nose Posted May 30, 2004 Report Posted May 30, 2004 Since this topic popped up, I'd like to give everyone the chance to watch my new favorite video of all time. Gene Simmons-"Fire Starter": http://play.rbn.com/?url=realguide/music/s...i.rm&proto=rtsp You will all be amazed at how good this is.
Si82 Posted May 30, 2004 Report Posted May 30, 2004 I voted for: Blur - Coffee & TV Electric Six - Gay Bar Fatboy Slim - Weapon of Choice Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer Jamiroquai - Virtual Insanity Madness -Baggy Trousers REM - Imitation of Life Supergrass - Pumping on Your Stereo Weezer - Buddy Holly The White Stripes - Fell in Love with a Girl

1234-5678 Posted May 31, 2004 Report Posted May 31, 2004 I don't like how "November Rain" gets all the hype as the best GNR video, and hardly anyone remembers "Estranged."
Guest Crazy Dan Posted May 31, 2004 Report Posted May 31, 2004 I know you can see the video in the actual movie "Sid & Nancy", where the movie cuts to the video... I am pretty sure that is the one. And Sid Vicious is played by Gary Oldman, who was a great Sid...
Edwin MacPhisto Posted May 31, 2004 Report Posted May 31, 2004 I don't like how "November Rain" gets all the hype as the best GNR video, and hardly anyone remembers "Estranged." It doesn't have Slash by the church, which is the big rock-out moment burned in everyone's memory. It does, however, have Slash on a conveyor belt, and lots of dolphins. I also think it's a better song than "November Rain" by a good hop.
