Hmm.

Hate My Life- Theory of A Deadman. Not the greatest song, but the video never fails to be awesome.

Almost every video that Muse has done.

Sledgehammer by Peter Gabriel

And... I'm drawing a blank on videos right now. I'll be back later.

I'm gonna pimp out a couple of my friends:

Dan Croll - From Nowhere

Mikhael Paskalev - I Spy

[DanteGabriel]

Fell in Love with a Girl -- White Stripes -- "the Lego video"

Star Guitar -- Chemical Brothers -- I kind of wish my friend hadn't explained the shtick of the video to me, because it'd have been awesome to figure it out myself.

Both videos were directed by Michel Gondry, who is awesome.  The Gondry volume of the music video directors' series is worth checking out.

It may not be the BEST but
A Little Piece of Heaven by Avenged Sevenfold is always a hoot.

Also
Zac Brown Band- Toes
Lindsey Stirling- Fucking all of them
Audioslave- Doesn't Remind Me

Ones I'm ashamed I like (might also go with music I'm ashamed I like):
Bad Romance- Lady GaGa
Do You Want to Date My Avatar- Felicia Day & The Guild (Felicia always gets a pass, no matter what it is)
Misery Business- Paramore

Pretty much all of Ok Go's catalog. The songs themselves aren't great usually, but the sheer awesomeness of the videos makes up for it.

I know this is basically a Chevy ad, but Needing/Getting is also fun.

I'd like you to know that that sounds great when played at the same time as Portishead.

k, screw it, I'm adding fan-made vids into this!

Princess Tutu thing with.. german song? http://www.youtube.c...h?v=3NDnqGrgDpk

and I guess this technically counts as original, as the song Bad Apple appeared in the Touhou game somewhere... and then the shadow art vid took off the meme world for a while. It says a lot about chara design when they're still mostly easy to ID from shadow silhouette only  - http://www.youtube.c...h?v=UkgK8eUdpAo

Haven't seen a thread on this anywhere, so..

What are your favorite music videos?  Not necessarily your favourite songs, but the video's you could watch over and over again, and why?

I like a lot of the more indulgent ones, the mini-movies, where the imagery is all about the song, whether or not it tells a story of it's own.  Things like "Take On Me", by A-Ha.

That one was so good - it's like the music video peaked early and was never as good afterward.

[Kobayashi Maru]

There  are so many good videos how to pick just one ? You think of one and there are alredy three more that pop to your mind. You have some simple but effective videos

Weapon of Choice  How can you not mention Chritopher Walken

Praise you is also great

There are always some oldies but goldies

Meat Loaf I would do anything for love

Hungry like a wolf Duran Duran

Crazy Aerosmith

and so on...when it was a rule to make a movie out of your video if you wanted it to be considered cool.

There are some I blushed for the first time while watching a video and some that are simply disturbing (especially second one).
