Greatest Music Video?

Postby CK » Wed Dec 10, 2008 8:16 pm

What is your pick for the greatest music video ever made? The usual candidates are "Thriller", "Bohemian Rhapsody", but must admit, one of my all time favorites is still "Praise You" from Fatboy Slim.
Can you guess where I'm calling from, the Las Vegas Hilton...

old Fatboy has a couple of good ones, "Praise You" is funny and "Weapon of Choice" not too bad either

Some memorable ones for me:

- Michael Jackson, Thriller & Beat It
- A ha, Take on me
- Barnsey, Working Class Man
- The Nickleback one where the guy sees how many seconds other people have left to live .... called something like "someday"
- The Police, Every Breath you take
- Guns 'n Roses, November Rain
- Sinead O'Connor, Nothing compares 2 U
- Robbie Williams, Rock DJ
- Foo Fighters, recent one when they face off with the riot police and blast them with the red stuff
- Kylie Minogue, Did it Again & Put Yourself in My Place
- Pink Floyd, Learning to Fly
- Kelly Clarkson, Walk Away

+ others I can't think of right now
In between signatures .....

Praise You is a good one.

Foo Fighters - Learning to fly,kind of forget its a film clip and get immersed in the 'movie'.

Still think Tassie is close..

LOL Was the first one that came to my mind too ... As teenagers the room would fall dead silent when this song came on and we all huddled around the TV.

Wonder what became of her, might have to get Googleing

Is that the one with Chevy Chase? I saw it last Saturday morning on Rage for the fist time in ages. A classic!

Christopher Walken is a gun! It's a Fatboy Slim song right? I think it goes; "you can do this, or you can do that"
