Best Video Ever

Recommended Posts

The Presidents of the United States of America - "Peaches" just for the ninja fight.

 

That video Kotz posted of the aerobics class.

 

Cindi Lauper - "Good Enough" Parts 1 and 2.

 

Devo - "Peek-A-Boo!" Demonic heads laugh at Devo. (If anyone can find a link to this video, I will love you forever.)

'Free as a Bird' is extremely impressive, if only for the sheer amount of Beatles references they manage to cram into it.

 

And while it's not really a music video per se, Dylan's 'Subterranean Homesick Blues' is excellent, and I know INXS at least borrowed the idea in one of their videos.

My Top 10 (In no particular order)

Beastie Boys-"Sabotage"

Quarashi-"Mr. Jinx"

Talking Heads-"Once In A Lifetime"

Fatboy Slim-"Praise You"

Public Enemy-"Shut 'Em Down"

Weezer-"Buddy Holly"

Johnny Cash-"Hurt"

Gorillaz-"Clint Eastwood"

Eminem-"Stan"

Cake-"Short Skirt, Long Jacket"

 

I like all the videos made by Eminem, Gorillaz, Fatboy Slim, The Beastie Boys, Quarashi, and Public Enemy, but the videos made by those artists that are in my Top 10 are their best, IMO.

If anyone is listing videos just for the girls--like Tip Drill--find the uncut version of Lap Dance off of Kazaa or something. Lots of fine women in various states of undress.

I was thinking of mentioning Xtina in "Dirrty", but managed to keep my raging testosterone in check.

i actually prefer her in that one video where she's walking around the neighborhood in that tiny pink haltertop and tiny blue booty shorts...

 

oh, and it's definently not a best video candidate, but Gwen Stefani looks very scrumshish in this new video...

Dude, MattYoung

November Rain? I hope you actually meant PURPLE Rain.

Crying and Crazy? Those songs are the WORST. But I guess if you like one, you like the other, since they're the same song.

 

A lot of the best videos ever can be found on the Michel Gondry and Spike Jonz compilations.

Hey now, any video that insinuates that Liv & Alicia have crazy schoolgirl lesbian sex is cool in my book.

Maybe if they edited the video down to the 15 seconds of titillation contained, it could be redeemable. As it is, the song seems longer then Wagner's Ring Cycle. And it sucks DICK.

I'm fond of videos that don't follow the lyrics of the song at all, but instead redefine the song's meaning. Metallica's video for "Turn the Page" is a good example of this.

I still think 'Fell in love with a girl' has to be the best White Stripes vid.

I'd agree with that but I think "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground" comes a close second.

 

"The Hardest Button to Button" is pretty good as well.
