Oh Father is my favoutite Madonna video.

I only found out yesterday that she didn't want to release it and David Fincher had to convince her to release it and she wasn't pleased when it didn't chart well.

I wonder how she feels about Oh Father now considering what a beautiful video he created.

Michael Jackson - Thriller

Take on Me- Aha

It was SOOOO visually striking for its day (now an unbelievable 27 years old) its aged well & launched the band perfectly!

I have to agree. It has a proper narrative and beautifully crafted graphics.

For more up to date stuff, I like The Verve's 'Bittersweet Symphony' because the sentiments of the song fit so well with the simple visuals.

I also like Sigur Ros's video for 'Glósóli', scary but wonderful.

mmm.. is tough to decide because a) I don't remember all my fav videos and b) I'm sure I will have to leave some of them out.


1.- Pearl Jam - Do the Evolution
2.- Daft Punk - Something about US
3.- Daft Punk - Aerodynamic
4.- Aphex Twin - Come to daddy
5.- Aphex Twin / Chris Cunningham - Rubber Johny
6.- Vittorio Monti - Czardas

madonna-ray of light
janet jackson-rhythm nation
lady gaga-bad romance
beyonce-single ladies
britney spears-baby one more time

Yeah it is such a powerful video...i love what Madonna and FIncher did...he also did Express Yourself, Bad girl and Vogue i love the way his direction and her vision just melded together....very intense.

Reminds me a lot of Citizen Kane too as intended

Prodigy smack my bitch up.

And I really like the A Ha take on me video as well...27 years old?!

I agree with a few that have been mentioned already.

Also worth mentioning: Bjork - All Is Full Of Love. Such a mesmerising and moving video and compliments the song perfectly.

Lady GaGa - Marry The Night - already a classic

i forgot about RHCP's Californication video - i think that is a timeless classic, actually got me liking them!

So overrated. I like a lot of Pet Shop Boys' music videos and some of Depeche Mode's, including:

West End Girls
How Can You Expect to be Taken Seriously?
Se a Vida E (That's the Way Life Is)

Get the Balance Right
Everything Counts
Shake the Disease
Enjoy the Silence

And Duran Duran's debut video Planet Earth. Always love Simon's dancing in this!

Probably not the best video ever, but I've always had a soft spot for Massive Attacks 'Unfinished Sympathy'.

Madonna - Like a Prayer

Thriller isn't overrated. There is a reason why it is loved so much. It makes people happy, enjoyable to watch and the choreography is very good. Other videos pales in comparison.

Their video for Teardrop is also quite memorable - haunting in fact

Wired for Sound - Cliff all in leather,on roller skates and massive headphones,and massive glasses.....If there is a better video than that,I'm yet to see it

I love the video to heartbeats by the knife!
i also like a lot of the moby videos they are cute...
looking at other people's suggestions i've seen one from the entire list so far might give some a look

I looooooooooooooooooove Depche Mode's Anton Corbijn videos
