Great Music Videos

[Z...]

I think music video as an art media is often abused and overlooked. I was always a sucker for short video stories,
and there are some true gems out there.

In this thread I'd like to share my favorites and look forward to see yours.
The main criteria, originality, strong and complete story and of course good music.

On top of my list is definitely this one by the Avalanches - Since I left you

"I never saw Ralf again but I bet wherever he is gone he is having a darn good time" :)

And also this one - by The Sparks - When Do I get to sing it my way

"A sweeping tale of jealousy"

I like this finnish guy who makes videos of himself moving and investigating in cityscapes, the storylines are open. But to me tells a story of the battle in trying to awake, being crippled and ninja simultaniously, gaining dexterity. Two different moods; playful and pensive:

Dosh - Um, Circles And Squares
