Perfxion Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 I think the best videos of all time are: Michael Jackson -Thriller Michael Jackson - Smooth Criminal Nelly - Tip Drill (un cut) 50 Cent - Disco Inferno (un cut) 50 Cent - P.I.M.P (un cut) Busta Rhymes - Dangerous Beastie Boys - Sabatoge
PLAGIARISM! Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 Unkle - rabbit in your headlights (though it gets less impressive with age). Windowlicker and Come to Daddy should be on every list. They never get old.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 That's a good one. I haven't seen that guy get hit by the cars over and over again in a while.
Red Baron Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 Tool: Sober Queens of the Stone Age: No One Knows
Black Lushus Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 I can't think of the title of the song but that Talking Heads song, you know "letting the days go by"...that video is so fuckin weird and out of it it's gotta be up at the top some where...
Nevermortal Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 One time I saw a Plasmatics video where Wendy O Williams rides a motorcycle into a school bus causing a major explosion, or something equally ridiculous.
Murmuring Beast Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 Doors: Break On Through Only a promo film but the best music video I have ever seen. Much like their first album cover, it is shot in darkness barring the guys themselves who are in the spotlight. Morrison is in it almost all the way through, every so often he will be seen beside a new player. The best affect is probably when he is stood beside Densmore, the drummer. It's also great because Morrison looks ridiculously sober in the video and Krieger looks stupidly young.
B. Brian Brunzell Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 Once in a Lifetime I love their video for "Wild, Wild Life" with John Goodman doing karaoke. Add Peter Gabriel's "Big Time" and Primus' "Mr. Krinkle" to he list as well.
Spaceman Spiff Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 Plant Man Is that the 1 that was on "Beavis & Butthead", with the dude in a suit made of grass?
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 "Thriller" by Michael Jackson "Under The Bridge" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers "Crossroads" by Bone, Thugz & Harmony Those come to mind off the top of my head.
Guest jonnyboy Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 prodigy - "smack my bitch up" is so fucking great.
The Metal Maniac Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 GWAR - Meat Sandwich I mean, come on. I think it'd be one of my favourite videos just for the shots of GWAR walking around some street while one of them tries to read a map, but the fact that Oderus owns Jesus at basketball makes it all the better. One - Metallica. "It's morse code." "For what?" "S.O.S. Help!"
Guest ken adams Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 Metallica - "One" Queen - "Innuendo" Tesla - "Need Your Loving". They make fun of the cliches used in making videos: out-of-focus shots, band-performing-in-the-middle-of-a-field-for-no-reason shots, hard-life-on-the-road-tour-bus shot, etc. Van Halen - "Jump". In an age when "Thriller", costing $37 billion, was the rage, "Jump" was simplicity at it's best, and Van Halen at it's best. It was just as popular with fans as "Thriller" on MTV's Top 10 video shows. George Michael - "Freedom". George realized we would rather see female models than him, so he gets an honorable mention for doing us a favor & not being in his own video.
smh810 Posted April 8, 2005 Report Posted April 8, 2005 Tool: Sober The lesson: Feces make great videos.

CheesalaIsGood Posted April 9, 2005 Report Posted April 9, 2005 "Just" Radiohead. If they told you what the guy laying on the ground really said... you would lay on the ground too.
Guest Brian Posted April 9, 2005 Report Posted April 9, 2005 I always liked the Foo Fighter's videos. Specifically "Monkeywrench".
B. Brian Brunzell Posted April 9, 2005 Report Posted April 9, 2005 Fatboy Slim - Weapon of Choice Christopher walken wire-dancing is greatness. If only the vid had more COWBELL~!
DCMaximo Posted April 10, 2005 Report Posted April 10, 2005 "Once In A Lifetime"-Talking Heads Also, I have a huge soft spot for "You Can Call Me Al" by Paul Simon. Chevy's performance in that video is great and I always mark out for the bass solo
Brett Favre Posted April 10, 2005 Report Posted April 10, 2005 Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication Eminem - My Name is and Real Slim Shady
Jorge Gorgeous Posted April 10, 2005 Report Posted April 10, 2005 Do the Evolution - Pearl Jam. Not sure if it was already mentioned, but it bears repeating.
