Not just the song… the video itself as a piece of art
Favourite music video
- Thread starter Amberrlicious
- Start date
I’ll start you with Feeder - Just a Day
Talking To A Stranger - Hunters & Collectors
The rise of the all so important video clip, in many ways its been part of the overall decline in contemporary music for several decades. Anything beyond the raw finished track is all marketing. But there are some out there that can add to a song, not just stuff it into a cardboard box.

Vienna - Ultravox
Austro-Hungarian opulence meets New Romantic vanity, but damn it works so well. Also the first clip to have a million dollar budget.

My other favourite. Simple but utterly, heart achingly beautiful
Smooth Criminal - Ahead of its time & boy could he dance.
Ooh as am here one more, it’s just cool.

Nice Video, Shame About The Song - Not The Nine O'Clock News
Sorry, couldn't help myself. For the young 'uns and non Brits, yes that is a young Mr Bean (aka Rowan Atkinson) where it all really started for him.

Songs For Swinging Larvae - Renaldo & The Loaf
Abstracted and disturbed madness. Highly popular in the early days of MTv, although they show the wrong track and artist credits.

R.E.M. - Imitation of Life
Just a simple loop played backwards and forwards multiple times, but with the focus constantly shifting. Something a little eerie about it as you realize that characters you've seen at multiple points have been mouthing the lyrics the whole time

Sledgehammer - Pater Gabriel
Would've hated to work on this clip, pixilation (people used in a stop motion format) is pure hell.

This Is A Man's Man's Man's World - The Residents
Purportedly named after Warner Brothers returned a demo tape addressed to "The Residents" of their address, they may well be and always be the weirdest band ever. Even after over 50 years of creative output we still don't know who they are.

Tyler The Creator - Yonkers
Daft Punk - One More Time
This unlocked a core memory for me
Hopefully a good one
