I just seen Eminem and D12’s new video  - My Band. The video was so funny and Eminem was really sexy in it.     <IMG SRC="http://www.peelified.com/ubb/smiley_love.gif">

...Ironic....

Anyway, new Distillers video (which also happens to be my favorite song on the album, which i may review) is pretty cool.  Same with the latest Unseen video...mmm, mohawks...

On the other hand, I was disappointed with the new apc video...not that The Bikini Bandits were in it, I've been a long time G-Mart fan  , but I was expecting it to be different than that :P

The music video for Weird Al Yankovic's "Headline News" is my favorite. I've seen it at least 20 times in the last 3 months.   

[Reply #323 on:]

I love the video to the Beastie Boys new single; 'Ch-Check It Out'. Reminds me a bit of the 'Sabotage' vid too. The song also rules, and nice hard beats...

[Reply #324 on:]

I like Britney Spears new song and video – Everytime. The video got people and magazines talking about on her video when fame is giving her stress she drowned herself in the bath.

Muse's Sing For Absolution video ownz. As well as Linkin Park's In The End video and Foo Fighters' Low video.

Yes! I like that one I really should buy Absolution one of these days...

Anything by Blink 182!

I quite liked the video for

The Chemical Brothers - Let Forever Be

It was like looking down a kalidescope.

Thumbs down to any video by Busted (shudder).

[Reply #329 on:]

The new Linkin Park video (jesus christ, how many videos is that  ) is really cool looking, my favorite yet. Though I am sick of their music, the animation is stunning nonetheless.

[Reply #330 on:]

It looks quite like that Kid Story bit of the Animatrix...
I know that guy did more anime but I've only seen that one.

[Reply #331 on:]

I haven't watched music videos in a while, but I saw a bunch the other day and some were surprisingly good.  Jay-Z's 99 Problems made me want to be Rick Rubin, and I've never liked a rap video before.  The Beastie Boys new video didn't impress me, but I liked Franz Ferdinand's and I was very surprised to find myself liking Modest Mouse's Float On, but I was puzzled that it was billed the "feel good video of the summer" when it's all sheep being herded into trucks, presumably for the slaughter.

Of course you all know that the greatest video ever is still the Gap Band's Party Train.

[Reply #332 on:]

I like Gorillaz, Eminem, Outkast and Weird Al videos.
Others I can't turn off when they come on..
Modest Mouse- Float On[Not very feel good, no.. but cool]
Petey Pablo- Freak a Leek
Norah Jones- Sunrise
Bumblebeez- Pony Ride
Franz Ferdinand- Take Me Out

Britney's Everytime was pretty, but it can't hold a candle to Toxic. It's funny.. In "Everytime" and No Doubt's "It's My Life"[another awesome one], people die and are magically ressurected in the end. Odd.

[Reply #333 on:]

Gandaddy's videos are amazing. Especially Now it's On and Crystal Lake.

[Reply #334 on:]

Anyone else seen Ash's 'Orpheus' video? It's got cars, so it's good, and the song rocks too. Probabaly their best actually, they've grown up at last...

Haven't seen the video, but I didn't think anyone outside of Australia had heard of them.

They supported Radiohead when I saw them. And god they were horrible!  If I remember correctly:

Bumblebeez Singer: And this is a song called Pony Ride.
Crowd Member: Ride your pony off the fucking stage!

I'm suprised they finished off their set. At the end they just stormed off. No goodbye or anything. Good riddence too! I would have paid NOT to see them. Why on earth they were picked to support Radiohead no one knows.

On the subject of Radiohead, a cool video I saw recently was their video for Motion Picture Soundtrack.

I like "Envy", but that's got more of Charlotte in it. 

Orpheus is a great video though, and I love Ash anyways.

ahh, I just finished watching Fuse's Uranium [a show i rarely watchto due to suckiness] with Julia interviewing the good ol' maynator with the LITBT Party. He is so great

Their video is pretty cool, but man, are they annoying.

Yeah I was at that concert, they were fucking dreadful, The Bumblebeez that is. What the fuck was that afro guy doing? Anyway it was a stupid decision to have them open to a band as brilliant as Radiohead.

On topic, my favourite videos are basically all Radiohead. They are pretty much all brilliant except for the ones where it's just them on stage (Creep, 2+2=5) Even they are pretty good.

[Reply #339 on:]

I like "Ch-check it out" by the Beastie Boys. That video is funny!
also "First Date" by Blink 182.

[Reply #340 on:]

"Californication" by red hot chilli peppers, because it must have cost a load and taken ages to make (all in CGI). Plus it looks pretty good, it's all meant to be a video game featuring the band members.

[Reply #341 on:]

Some music channels are showing some Euro football songs. Yesterday I saw the video of Fat Les – Vindaloo. I haven’t seen that video for ages and I use to love it every time the video shows on TV.

I only watch half of the video because my mum told me to turn it over. She hated that song. 

[Reply #342 on:]

Ah Vindaloo ... I believe I still have my copy of it somewhere 

[Reply #343 on:]

me too.

I love the video from the Romania boy band O-Zone because they are all so good looking.

[Reply #344 on:]

:: Shrug :: I kinda liked Bumblebeez! Not as good as Radiohead. but still cool, I think. Does anyone here know Gay Pimp[aka Johnny McGovern]? His videos are awesome.. And his music is hilarious.

[Reply #345 on:]

Can't remember if I've posted in this thread before. You can watch videos easily with Launch, very shibby.

Some of my fave videos are
Royksopp - Remind Me
Garbage - Push It
 and Muse - Unintended

I got friends who are way into him.  Sending each other Johnny McGovern shirts and whatnot to question each others' sexuality.  Anyway, they showed me the "soccer practice" video a while back.  It's funny, but I don't think I get it.

Edit: the greatest video ever is still the Gap Band's Party Train.

I'll keep an eye out for that 

[Reply #349 on:]

Having got back into Launch, I must say that I love the video for APC's "The Outsider".

Bikini Bandits, mmmm....

[Reply #350 on:]

The new Modest Mouse video is pretty cool.

[Reply #351 on:]

I just saw the video for The Cure's The End of the World ... I love stop-motion animation 

[Reply #352 on:]

Sorry, I know this threads not been posted on in a while, but I&#8217;d like to add a my favourites.
Feel free to ignore me!

Pearl Jam &#8211; Jeremy. Saw this a long, long time after hearing the song. Felt the video fitted the song perfectly. Wonderful imagery, left me thinking about the song afterwards.

Pearl Jam &#8211; Do the Evolution &#8211; Saw this before I&#8217;d had a proper chance to listen and digest the song. Certainly not what I&#8217;d expected. Wonderful artwork by McFarlane, and had quite a profound effect on me. Lots to think about in that.

The above two are perfect examples of why Pearl Jam should make more music vids (not like the last one&#8217;s, which while decent enough, weren&#8217;t anything special.)

Creed &#8211; With Arms Wide Open. Fantastic cinematography, spot on effects. Only criticism is the lead singer (name escapes me). Don&#8217;t know why, he just didn&#8217;t look right.

Foo&#8217;s &#8211; Learning to Fly. If the Foo&#8217;s should be remembered for something, it should be this. Epitomised what the band means to me &#8211; fun fun fun! The band seem to be having a right laugh!

Dire Straits &#8211; Money for Nothing. Surprised to see this mentioned (along time ago!) already. I remember watching it as a kid, and was quite excited when I had a chance to see it again. Was a bit disappointed that SFX werent as good as I&#8217;d remembered, but considering this is about 17? years old, still a massive achievement. And yes, I remember it being quite scary!

Tenacious D &#8211; Wonderboy. Its Meatloaf! 1st time I saw this, I didn&#8217;t know they were a comedy band. Didn&#8217;t quite know what was going on for the 1st half. Top stuff!

Weird Al &#8211; Pretty much anything he&#8217;s made a video for. Comedy genius!

The Streets &#8211; Dunno name of the song. Saw this a few weeks back &#8211; song is about pot being illegal/alcohol being legal. Very unusual video. Personally, legalities of smoking pot have no interest to me, but it was quite a clever video (though the song does very little for me)

Sorry, bit long winded. I&#8217;m not really this dull usually!

[Reply #353 on:]

Oh yeah, the Money for Nothing one is creepy... all that crude 3-d animation, and the lack of lips... it's robots wearing human suits...

And I have little else to contribute to this thread, as haven't seen many music videos at all... SHOCK!

[Reply #354 on:]

Has anyone seen the video in which a very pale and odd looking woman is standing in the middle of a room naked and red string is  coming out of her nipples and wrapping her up like a cocoon? Its very strange.

No it isn't! 

[Reply #356 on:]

Sounds like a Bjork video...

[Reply #357 on:]

Funnily enough it is a Bjork video, and the song is called Cocoon. And it is extremely fucked up.

[Reply #358 on:]

Has anyone seen the video for The Hives' Walk Idiot Walk!? I like it 

[Reply #359 on:]

I don’t know if anybody mentioned Outkast’s video – Roses. I really like that video.
