Greatest Music Video of all Time?

There can be only one correct answer......

after thinking on this one for a very long time...I had to go with other....It was hard to decide really, but I had to make the call.

good one Tabsy!

for real, my fav. video of all time has to be Unforgetable Fire by U2...absolutely beautiful song and video!!!

Best vid ever: Duran Duran - Rio. It set the standard - girls, yachts, disappear up your own arse faux artiness.

Sensoria by Cabaret Voltaire; love the Wise Blood tribute. Thank you Peter Care!

How about a little dittie called "True Faith"?

My favourite video is "Come To Daddy" by The Aphex Twin, it's the scariest video i have ever seen.

The best music video could never ever come from journey :barf: , my favorite vid of all time is rhcp's "under the bridge", but rem's great beyond comes close (i like this song a lot!). My fav NO vid has to be True Faith, hands down

Alego, the Radiohead video your thinking of is (i believe) "Just" a great piece of work.

Nope, "Street Spirit", one of my all-time Radiohead faves, is the slo-mo black and white. "Just" is the guy lying down (or is it "laying down"?) in the middle of the sidewalk. Everyone keeps imploring him to get up, but he finally reveals why he's laying there and everyone else falls down too.

The secret:Trix are for kids, silly rabbit!

Some of my favorite videos are: UNKLE feat. Thom York "Rabbit in your headlights" DJ Shadow "You can't go home again" Radiohead "Paranoid Android" Smashing Pumpkins "Tonight Tonight" NO "60 mph" (one of the funniest I've ever seen )

That's all I can remember right now...

Cardigans Favourite Game--I forgot how good that video is. I have always thought that the video for 'Take on Me' by Aha is wonderful

Kraftwerk 'The Model'

You are joking? They didnt even finish colouring it it...

Yes of course I'm joking--it would go on my list of 20 worst videos :)

Super furry animals: Juxtaposed

It is difficult to think about music video without referring to the music--there are some wonderful videos that go with awful songs and vice versa

That's true, there's also been quite a few unintentionaly hilarious videos too, a lot in the Rock genre, plenty in hip-hop and as for Sting .... Mind you for overblown and po-faced DuranDuran and Ultravox in the 80's take some beatin Never liked Adam ant much but I can still remember the videos, tongue firmly in cheek

BEASTIE BOYS - Sabotage

...hmm, and...

YES - Owner Of A Lonely Heart

...hmm, and...

PETER GABRIEL - Sledgehammer

...hmm, and... ...hmm, and... ...so on and so on...

The Saviour

U2 'Discotheque'

only kidding, I meant U2 'Mysterious Ways'

I think I will start a new thread Top 10 worst music videos ever--although I would guess that it has been here in the past :D

And I will start another thread just for you--unintentionally funny music videos

Bless, thats very kind of you

only one vote for Journey ?!

someone mentioned the Verve earlier, I must confess I can watch Richard Ashcroft walking for hours and hours and hours

NO's "Here to stay" or maybe TBTHOG. Or, PSB's "Domino Dancing."

not seen this, unless its the ian mckelan one

maybe not the best vids, but memorable

Aphex twin, any of them Basement jaxx any of them WFL the Mondays

fav cameo in a pop video, Joe Strummer and Paul Simonon in B.A.D.'s Medicine Show as NYPD fat cops

I agree on the Aphex tip. Chris Cunningham's stuff is masterful. Windowlicker has to be one of, if not the, funniest video(s) EVER.

Chris has done some good work for our favorite Icelandic singer, Bjork.

Chris has done some good work for our favorite Icelandic singer, Bjork. I dont know if it's on sale in the US, but over here you can buy the collected works of Chris Cunningham on dvd region 2.

There are video's available featuring the work of Chris Cunningham, Spike Jonze and another director (who's name i can't remember right now), all of them are completly different from each other; the only thing these 3 directors have in common is making videos for Bjork, but all 3 videos are brilliant, buy them if you can.
