    Best video ever would be : Jeff Buckley -- last Goodbye

    But I'm infatuated with the video for Spitting Games, too. So, I dunno.

    Coffee and TV by blur is the only video that comes to mind right now that everytime I see the video (not often) I always have to watch it untill the end.

    Tonight Tonight and 1979 by the pumpkins are class videos too.

    Like a rolling stone by The Rolling Stones
    Design for life by The Manics (original video is great but t'was edited down by ''the man'' for t.v.)

    or

    for the lesbian element Add n to x with plug me in.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,057 ✭✭✭Wacker


    Here's another vote for Pearl Jam's Do the Evolution. Absolute class.

    Also, Cake, Short Skirt, Long Jacket. For those of you unfamiliar with it, its some dude going up to random people on the street and playing them the song on a discman and asking for their comments. Such a good idea! And cheap as chips to do.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22 giallorossi


    suppose i best give mine as well.

    pearl jam - jeremy

    radiohead - fade out/street spirit

    unkle - rabbit in the head lights


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 104 ✭✭m


    by morrissey.

    the videocaptures the song perfectly.........


    recently hurt by the late johnny cah is a classic too


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 166 ✭✭Damon_Kind


    'Come to daddy' Aphex Twin.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,072 ✭✭✭Sandi


    I like the video for "Livin' Doll" by Cliff Richard and the Young Ones. It's just funny!

    Just by Radiohead is brilliant but it'd be even better if we got to know what yer man said at the end. Anyone else frustrated by this?!

    Tribute is indeed a class video but there are too many now that spring to mind to pick a favourite. I'll stick with the Cliff Richard one just coz it's really silly and makes me laugh!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,227 ✭✭✭Shanannigan


    I must say i was quite impressed with some of the Muse Videoes, particularly Newborn... also Turin Brakes the 1 they're dressed up as teddy bears.. any1 know what song that was cos that was how i got into tb was that video just forget the song it was for.. also grandaddy's Crystal Lake Video... i could shpeel on about videos forever but i'll save it for another day

    I have to say I do like the white stripes' video for The Hardest Button to Button. And Muse have some gems like Stolkholm Syndrome. And Nirvana's Heart-Shaped Box has a great video.

    And, yeah. Cake 'Short Skirt, Long Jacket' - great video.

    But, just for, you know, being the first and such, Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody.

    The guy knows that he is in a Radiohead video and wont tell the rest of them because it will piss them off aswell. So once he does tell them they all stage a lie down protest because such a great video is being wasted on such a terrible band
    :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,048 ✭✭✭DerekD Goldfish


    Attractive Nun queens bohemian rapsody wasnt the first vidio there were a good few before it I think the first was subterainian homesick blues by bob dylan but i could be wrong.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88 ✭✭TeenStar


    hmmm dont know what my favourite one is - yeah the weezer 'buddy holly' vid is great also michael jackson's thriller still looks pretty cool ......hmm i dunno i hardly ever watch mtv anymore :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 471 ✭✭tovalee


    Devil Went Down to Georgia by Primus

    Southbound Pachyderm by Primus is cool too

    Primus sucks


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 85 ✭✭dera


    i dunno if it counts but..

    bob dylan 'subterranean homesick blues'

    has a video attached.

    and it's stupendous.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 340 ✭✭legofsalmon

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,046 ✭✭✭Dustaz


    "Boh Rap" definatley not the first vijo. !st vijo was "Rain" by yes you've guessed it................"The Beatles"


    Thank you and good night.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,203 ✭✭✭Attractive Nun


    Okay I'm sorry!!!! Jeez!!!

    Bohemian Rhapsody wasn't the first video!!!

    Yes! I forgot about that one. A turtle with an old man's head, classic!

    But still Do the Evolution has got to be the best.

    Grace by Supergrass

    cracks me up, though I couldn't say why

    I used to know a girl called Grace, funnily enough she used to eat our chips and drink our coke. She was a bit fat really.

    Or the Strokes, Someday, but only cos Guided by Voices flip them off.

    The Beastie Boys ''Sabotage'' got no.1 in the MTV2 Top 100 Videos...hmmm...I mean it's good but I wouldn't call it the best :dunno:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 548 ✭✭✭TJM


    Outkast - 'Hey Ya' is one of the funniest videos of the year. Great song too.

    Benny Benassi's 'Satisfaction' video is hilarious. (If you're on broadband: you can get it at http://www.video-c.co.uk/frontend/asp/microshow.asp?vidref=benn001&FileType=ISDNstream .) Pity the song isn't up to much. Formulaic dance, but curiously addictive.

    Ironically, I think one of the best music videos of 2003 wasn't even a video: the Guinness 'Quarrel' ad featuring Mic Christopher's Heyday was a superb piece of work. Fitting for a superb song. Recognition always comes too late...

    It's at: http://www.todayfm.com/guinness.html

    But, just to be difficult, I'd say that one of the best recent videos is by Marc Bianchi / Her Space Holiday - 'My Girlfriend's Boyfriend'. Lovely little piece for a tender song. Well worth visiting the site at:

    http://www.herspaceholiday.com/main.html

    You can download the video from there as well.
