Shawna Posted May 17, 2006 Report Posted May 17, 2006 I hated that Jamie O'Neill song when I first heard it. Then I listened to the words and realized someone wrote a song about my life. It's soooo true!
Farin Posted May 17, 2006 Author Report Posted May 17, 2006 I'm strangely drawn to the video for "Learn to Fly". I wonder why... I can't really think of a reason... Foo Fighters ~ Learn to Fly
Red Fish Posted May 17, 2006 Report Posted May 17, 2006 Some of my recent favorites are Someday by Nickelback, and Broken by Seether. And Love Me Tender.

Farin Posted May 18, 2006 Author Report Posted May 18, 2006 Wow, I haven't seen "Virtual Insanity" in years. I really love it thanks, frogs
SoulGirl Posted May 18, 2006 Report Posted May 18, 2006 i love videos with good dancing in them, like 'weapon of choice', 'virtual insanity', 'around the world' and many many others. christopher walken is one of the coolest men alive! i love the milk carton video for blur's song, 'coffee and tv'. and many radiohead videos are excellent, especially 'just' as rach mentioned. the video for johnny cash's version of 'hurt' moves me to tears. i could watch music videos all day! farin, the 'nur ein wort' video is based on dylan's one for 'subterranean homesick blues', right?
Earth-Angel Posted May 18, 2006 Report Posted May 18, 2006 I love music videos too - Bjork has some incredible ones, as do Radiohead and Daft Punk. Moby and Royksopp have some good ones too! I couldn't name my favourite, just like I can't tell you my favourite song, artist or album, movie, book or smell, color, taste or anything actually! I like all sorts of different things at different times for different reasons
Farin Posted May 18, 2006 Author Report Posted May 18, 2006 (edited) Soulgirl, if you like dancing videos, make sure to check this one out The Avalanches - Since I Left You I, too, could watch music videos all day. We have 4 German music channels and the only thing they send is Ringtone commercials, Call-in quiz shows and reality soaps And of course, if they happen to bring actual music, it's only boygroups and the like farin, the 'nur ein wort' video is based on dylan's one for 'subterranean homesick blues', right? Yes, exactly. That's why I posted them together But I really think it's a very good remake I love music videos too - Bjork has some incredible ones, as do Radiohead and Daft Punk. Moby and Royksopp have some good ones too! I couldn't name my favourite, just like I can't tell you my favourite song, artist or album, movie, book or smell, color, taste or anything actually! Björk is one of my favourite icelandic singers but seriously I like her music and videos very much. I would have a real problem, if I should pick out my absolute favorite. That's why I posted about two dozen and I still have ideas for more... P.S. Soulgirl, I just noticed your new signature Do you have that from a song? Edited May 18, 2006 by Guest PS
SoulGirl Posted May 18, 2006 Report Posted May 18, 2006 Yes, exactly. That's why I posted them together But I really think it's a very good remake d'oh! silly girl, i should have read your post more carefully! i love that avalanches video! i used to watch viva alot when i lived in munich because it was the only music channel i had but the videos were mostly pop, same ones repeated over and the klingelton ads drove me crazy!! bjork rocks - i love her!
Farin Posted May 18, 2006 Author Report Posted May 18, 2006 We used to have a music channel "Viva 2" and I loved it! It started as an Oldie but they evolved to Indie/Classic Rock and some Electronica, but certainly without mainstream. It was the only TV channel I could watch 24-7 non stop! Sadly it wasn't profitable enough and got cancelled And then MTV bought Viva and now they controll the whole market...
Crazy Don Posted May 21, 2006 Report Posted May 21, 2006 I forgot these two Huey Lewis & the News videos! I Want a New Drug If This Is It
Levis Posted May 21, 2006 Report Posted May 21, 2006 i love the milk carton video for blur's song, 'coffee and tv'. Oh I LOVE the Coffee and TV video! I also like the baby animals video by Weezer for Island in the Sun.
Farin Posted May 21, 2006 Author Report Posted May 21, 2006 I like them, too Blur ~ Coffee and TV Weezer ~ Island in the Sun And here's another beautiful one: Björk ~ Pagan Poetry

Skuff Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 (edited) Here are some I like: Revolution Flying (From MMT) and The Waiting (In the Waiting video, 2, not 1, but 2 Rickenbacker guitars!) That's it. Edited May 23, 2006 by Guest

Steel2Velvet Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 (edited) And Love Me Tender. This is such a hoot!! I love the subtitle: Scandanavian's genius choreography (Note the somewhat lost dancer, center rear during the opening) Also impressive are the great lyrics like: "I want you, I want to love you tender I just want to be your love defender" Edited May 23, 2006 by Guest
Farin Posted May 26, 2006 Author Report Posted May 26, 2006 Not really a music video, but I'll post it anyway... This is for Peaches Tenacious D on Crank Yankers The first I ever saw/heard from them
Tenacious_Peaches Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 Spectacular, Farin. You always know how to make me smile. And I love that you can see their little puppet pee-pees.
Farin Posted May 26, 2006 Author Report Posted May 26, 2006 And I love that you can see their little puppet pee-pees. Maybe I should have put a "Caution: contains Graphic Nudity" in my post...
cadillacranch Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 This is a cool clip Beastie Boys: Sabotage
Tenacious_Peaches Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 Excellent, c-ranch. That is one of the best videos ever. Spike Jones is a genius, I tell you. Great, now I'll be screaming "I can't stand it, I know you planned it" all day long. Thanks, man.
Farin Posted May 26, 2006 Author Report Posted May 26, 2006 This is a cool clip Beastie Boys: Sabotage Love the song Love the video
edna Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 I wonder if there was life before youtube.com... I spend at least 30 minutes per day discovering old videos...
