Title: Favorite music video?
Post by: TheViscount on 17 Feb 2009, 04:02: Release version music videos of course.

Which one is your favorite?

Mine shifts, but I tend to come back to liking Jesus of Suburbia by Green day, because, well, Jimmy`s pretty, and he looks like Zack from the movie C.R.A.Z.Y [Awesome movie.] as well as One by Metallica, Johnny got his gun is a great novel and movie.

SHOOT.

Post by: TheViscount on 17 Feb 2009, 18:25: I was contemplating on that, but the music VIDEO is what is more important in this subject, I thought.

Post by: Cartilage Head on 17 Feb 2009, 19:58: I'd say there is good reason for it to be here. Music videos are not only about the music, but the visual "film" if you will.

That said, Tarzan Boy by Baltimora (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_r0n9Dv6XnY).

Post by: the_pied_piper on 18 Feb 2009, 09:55: Well, i guess from the art side of things it could be in here but i'd still say its Music Forum material.

However: Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer

Post by: TLT Thomas on 28 Feb 2009, 18:06: The artsier and weirder, the better, if you ask me.

The Peter Gabriel videos I definitely enjoy.

Talking Heads did some cool stuff as well. "Road To Nowhere" and "Nothing But Flowers" spring to mind.

David Bowie's "Ashes To Ashes"... classic.

Beck and White Stripes also made some great videos.

Man, it's so hard to pick a favorite... but if I had to, I'd go with "Heart Shaped Box" by Nirvana.

Post by: spoon_of_grimbo on 28 Feb 2009, 18:55: i still watch "freak on a leash" by korn and just think "that is fucking badass."

also, i remember when i was about 5 or 6, me and my brother wanted to video the michael jackson "moonwalker" film on our new vcr, and our mum set the timing wrong, so we got part of the jacko video-a-thon they were showing before the film itself too. the highlight of which was THIS (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbH04pY7alA).

Post by: J-cob9000 on 07 Mar 2009, 07:57: I'm not sure what the title of this song is but there's some screamo song with an amazing video. It shows you the singer, but all you can see are the teeth and the spit flying out of his mouth.
It's an awful song, but a cool video.

Or Rocky Horror Picture Show.

I don't really know if I would consider it my favorite, but it is a good one.

it's made doubly awesome when you get the album and realise the video is essentially the band performing inside the artwork from the liner notes.

Post by: TLT Thomas on 25 Mar 2009, 18:40: KMFDM did something kinda similar in 1993... the video for "A Drug Against War" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cogqqLXwRBQ) consisted of animation featuring artwork from all their past albums.
