That was one of the coolest things I have ever seen. The part when Beck throws his shoe is priceless.

Rather than start a new thread, I guess this sorta belongs here While I was hanging around at a friend's house, I made him dig out a bunch of his old VHS tapes for us to watch, namely the rare Frank Zappa stuff that he has collected and traded for over the years, as he his the oldest and biggest FZ fan that I know. You can't see an inch of the wall in his room, it's all just Mothers tour posters and Zappa photographs. Anyway, there were two gems that we found: one was this preformance where Frank let John Lennon and Yoko Ono sit in, which is absolutely painfaul yet hillarious to watch because Ono rudely does her bizarre Ono warbling through the whole thing seemingly without a care for what's acutally playing. The second was a somewhat timid (or star/Steve-struck) 23 year old Frank, who looks exactly like that one picture that's used in Ruben and the Jets, on the Steve Allen show showing Steve how to play the "bicycle" as well borrow the band to conduct his own non-tonal bicycle driven concerto. I found some of the former on youtube, though I really wished I could have shared the latter instead. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LR9vLT_KsxIhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdvKgQ0ZxvIThough sadly it doesn't include a cute part where Lennon is delighted to find out that Zappa lets him use his unique conducting motions (ie. flipping the band off to signal for them all to make a high pitched sound) to mess with the band, and Lennon totally goes nuts with it.

Also, if I ever get a band together I'm totally using hand signals.

but the music sucks because the keyboards don't have the cold/mechanical sound they had but a wannabe techno sound that it's pathetic for Rammstein standars.

Hmmm, that's different to the version of the Frontier Psychiatrist vid we had here a few years ago. The one on TV here was all animated in time with the lyrics... Anyway; Pro-test by Skinny Puppy

However, youtube wins for having all parts of R Kelly's Trapped In The Closet on it.

Heh...a couple of years ago, I was in an American popular music class and we did a presentation on the intersection of art & music. I decided to play this little Nine Inch Nails - Happiness in Slavery video . It was totally a "high school" moment played out in college, but it was worth it to see everyone's reactions.[/url]

Supercar - "Be" Supercar and that video are both made of win. Just for the record. They're probably one of the better Japanese rock bands these days, though they're not too well-known, I don't think.

That Bjork video is great, but for my money "Pagan Poetry" is even better. This, however, is the best video ever: Vitalic - "Birds"

Pearl Jam- Do The EvolutionI can take or leave Pearl Jam as a band but this is a fucking good video- Todd McFarlane animation taking in dinosaurs, the holocaust, slavery, monkey experiments, Brave New World, WW1 and the apocalypse. Someone just recommended I watch this, and I agree...I'm no particular fan of the song (it's not terrible, but not my thing), but the vids so goddamn good, that actually doesn't matter.

This is my favourite, Queen doing Radio Gaga at Live Aid, possibly the best example of what a frontman should be.

If that list is in descending order, it's wrong. Because Take On Me is easily the best music video ever.

But why isn't Buddy Holly by Weezer there? Easily the best video ever.
