Do you have a favorite music video? What is it?
 

What's your favorite music video?

"Freak on a Leash", Korn.

I like Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video. It's an oldie but I loved that video.:)

i dont know if its my FAVORITE but Prodigy "Smack my B*tch Up" is one of videos, pre-youtube, i'd hope MTV would play in entirety late-nights.

Hmmmm....that's a hard one. I'll have to go with "Waterfalls" by TLC. There's lots of ones that I love, that's the one I remember most vividly.

Wait wait, this might just top everything!!!!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ncw70Hw1ffs

Given what is going on right now; some how this seems just so right.
By the Saw Doctors.

Another great one from the '80s: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUod3jGQt0U

I love that song! :D You and I are ----->here<--------with music.:)

Here's a good one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yt6R6sTwsa4

BTW: Though I like Robert Palmer, the video isn't my favorite because of him....I like the women in it. They've got nice legs.:o:p

Still. love. that. video!!!!

That video will always make me laugh. And want to dance.

Recently: Erykah Badu - Honey [http://youtube.com/watch?v=_9jpkF1ehD8]

Old-ish: Garbage - Push It [http://youtube.com/watch?v=z-CHEnJ7gnc] and Smashing Pumpkins - Tonight, Tonight [http://youtube.com/watch?v=EsZYqaSc4cU]

I have a hard time separating the song from the video. But, i've always been a fan of Missy's videos, in particular "The Rain"

Other favorites (that tend to put me in a good mood or i either know all the words and/or dance moves)
Fiona Apple's "Criminal"
Britney Spears "Slave 4 U"
Usher "U Don't Have to Call" and "U Remind Me"
Lil Kim "Crush on You"

My favorites tend to be older videos but that's because those are the ones that stick out in my mind. MTV stopped playing videos a long time ago so I haven't seen videos for the newer songs.

My favs:
Pearl Jam - Jeremy (this is my most favorite)
Madonna - Vogue
Jamiroquai - Virtual Insanity
Beastie Boys - Sabotage
Guns and Roses - November Rain
N'Sync - Bye Bye Bye

I'm sure there are others that I can't think of right now.

I loved that video too. It's still one of my favorites :cool:

sigh... good times lol

I love that video. :)

I forgot to add Mariah Carey's Honey. I remember the first time I saw it. I was use to sweet, innocent Mariah from her Dreamlover and Vision of Love days. I was watching the Honey video thinking, "Holy crap! Mariah got slutty!"

My favorite is "Take on Me" that I used to watch with my mom when I was a kid.

I don't know if it's already on here, b/c I look up YouTube at work.

we MUST be the same person, because when i saw this thread, that was the first video i thought of as a "favorite." but i really dont know why. i think it jus reminds me of youth, oh so far away...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NdAUnnU9Ac

this is just a fun one. im a fan of the Spanish Fly insert at 1:36

Also a classic! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-P_TV-gierM

These used to be my JAM back in the day...yup, both of 'em

Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody"
Blind Melon's "No Rain"
and
Red Hot Chili Pepper's "Under The Bridge" -- one of my first memories was watching this music video with my father.

Oh, man, I wanted JJ's abs in that video and I wanted to look like her in jeans in this video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=Ufaw7OWu4EU&feature=related. I did double runs and workouts the whole summer that video came out. :) She looks awesome in that video and the guys in it are yummy. Good times.

Can you believe I actually got into a fight with a girl over a guy in junior high...WHILE this song was playing? :rolleyes: I just saw him last year...wasn't worth it. :rolleyes:


While we're on the JJ tip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BTjbjU6FXA

Ooooh and TLC will always reign supreme. This vid looked like so much fun!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVJBhDoGapM

Yea, middle school always provided some interesting memories lol


Too bad MTV/VH1/BET doesn't play videos like they used to. Not like our current video offerings are all that interesting.

ETA: TLC - Creep [ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0tNO3QFoOE ]

Ancient song and video. The video isn't all that great, but I like the song.:p


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9nqCM8Ito8

I sported Belinda's haircut in that video for a couple years in the 80s. And I knew a girl in high school that looked just like her.

But if you're gonna go Go-Gos, you gotta include: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dq42T...eature=related and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TiCwI...eature=related

I'm partial to...
 

I'd say my all-time favorite vid is Wicked Game by Chris Isaak. The impeccable B&W cinematography...Helena Christensen's chipped nail polish...CLASSIC! :D Not to mention that it was directed by the incomparable Herb Ritts. I absolutely LOVE(D) his videos! I was so sad when he died. :(

On a different (and happy) note, I'd say a (very) recent favorite would have to be (Soror) Alicia Keys' vid for Teenage Love Affair. I love how it's a throwback/homage to the movie School Daze. Oh, and fine-a$$ Derek Luke!!! :p

is that the video that is in black and white on the beach? yeah that video is the win.

"Big Me" by Foo Fighters

it was the one that parodied the mentos commercials (the freshmaker)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhfWzCPRPtg

The Boys - "Crazy"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDH8z3Hh0-c

it is such a 90s video.

Marilyn Manson-Long Hard Road out of Hell
Björk-Human Behaviour
Aphex Twin-Come to Daddy
Prodigy-Smack my B!tch Up
Björk-Bachelorette
Smashing Pumpkins-Ava Adore
Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott-The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly)
Busta Rhymes ft. Janet Jackson-What's It Gonna Be?
Michael Jackson ft. Janet Jackson-Scream

I used to record music videos back when they would play on MTV, Vh1, BET, and The Box, I have 13 VHS tapes worth of em LOL

Wow, this vid brought so many good memories..Vh1 would always play it before I left for school, it came out right before the end of the school year in 95, so it reminds me of the do-nothing days of 5th grade LOL

http://youtube.com/watch?v=hvunyWYr_tc

Circa senior year. LOVED them.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=Au8sFAk2O_8

I'm pretty sure I was in 4th grade or so went this came out and I decided I was going to be her when I grew up. Seriously.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=Z005trXccW0

I became obsessed with Hype Williams videos after I saw this.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=ZCbvYY9PKRg

This cheered me up when it used to come on in the morning in 7th grade when I was depressed about having moved to OH.

^^^ happy 5K posts!

Mariah Carey's "Always Be My Baby" is a good one.

I get nostalgic of senior year over three videos:
POD's "Youth of a Nation"
Musiq "Half Crazy"
Adema "The Way You Like It"

These videos ALWAYS came on MTV Video WakeUp or whatever its called at that time of morning before school.
