Farin Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 Music Videos can sometimes be a work of art themselves, be it because of their style, a story that is told, or because it has some unique idea behind it. Let Forever Be ~ Chemical Brothers Imitation of Life ~ R.E.M. (just 20 seconds played back and forth) No Surprises ~ Radiohead (almost any Radiohead video could be mentioned here) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viaene Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 you're right about the first 3 video's, they are awesome! Nice concepts, and nice filming/editting work in the first two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Seeker Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 I think this is my favourite music video: Window In The Skies -- U2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 I never liked videos very much, it must be cause part of my work, 25 years ago, was watching every video there was. When you see 50 in a row you wish you were swimming or reading a book... Yet there´s a guy who made very good videos for Peter Gabriel and Tears For Fears, I don´t know his name and can´t find the clips... "Don´t Answer Me" - Alan Parsons Project is a good video...

Farin Posted April 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 I think this is my favourite music video: Window In The Skies -- U2 that IS a very good one and if you like that, check out Gnarls Barkley's Smiley Faces maybe not as good (debatable), but similar in style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elvish Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Closer comes to mind (Nine Inch Nails). Although I'm not sure if I've ever seen an uncut version. All of their videos are artistic (stark, and sometimes graphic). I like Head Like a Hole (but it is interspersed with concert footage...) I really love the Johnny Cash Hurt video. The director does an excellent job of evoking the NIN-style video, but also interweaves elements from Cash's life. Really moving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 You're right about Closer... it can be a bit disturbing, but it's certainly art. What about my favourite? No Rain It's a classic. I'd even post the lyrics again if they weren't up already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
