But then again, I have a thing for 'thick' women. :)

Wiseguys, original video for "Start the Commotion" (with the video loops...sweet!)

The White Stripes videos for "Seven Nation Army" and "Fell In Love With a Girl" (the lego one)

8. Johnny Cash - "Hurt"

It's powerful...

-and-

Van Morrison in The Last Waltz. He sings Caravan with The Band and Robbie Robertson calls him the Belfast Cowboy. Love that movie.

[Bill Wade]

10. The Last Waltz is pretty good..

I think the best part is "the Hawk" doing "Who do you love?" Not because its really that good, but because its damn funny. :)

[Bonhomme Richard]

14. Forgot all about the last waltz. Gonna have to.......

rent that one again.

[Sticky]

16. It was on A&E a while back

....they all looked so young, especially Van. It's hard to remember when he wasn't a chubby, balding, angry curmudgeon like he is now.

People say I'm crazy but I think he has aged well. :loveya:

9. RATM="Sleep Now in the fire"

Michael Moore directed it. Its kina of a guerilla music video because they setup across the street from the NYSE and were arrested at the end.

[Archae]

11. Land Of Confusion

Genesis.

THE political video of the 1980's, and one of the funniest made.

[Jim Sagle]

12. Matchbox Twenty - Mad Season

[TrustingDog]

13. mine are...

first one I saw that blew me away was
Billy Jean by Michael Jackson

Losing My Relgion by REM
Like a Prayer by Madonna

lots of others, but these stick like a good burr.

[comsymp]

17. Those were all good ones- also

Twilight Zone - Golden Earring
(gotta say it) Thriller
She's a Beauty - Tubes
and someone upthread mentioned A-Ha's stuff


and a few videos which were actually better than the singles:

Keep Me Hangin' On - Kim Wilde
Love is a Battlefield - Benatar

-old guy checking in...

[AwakeAtLast]

15. Anything by Duran Duran

Hey, don't laugh! I was the biggest Durannie in the 80's.

I also liked "Lucas with the Lid Off". Obscure from about eight (?) years ago.

Eminem has had a few good ones, too, even though I am not a huge fan.

[Kat45]

18. Dire Straits - Money for Nothing

A-ha - Take On Me
Cars - You Might Think
Tom Petty - I forget which song it was, but the video had an "Alice in Wonderland" theme to it.

Aerosmith had a series of good ones on one album, most of the videos with Alicia Silverstone in them (and one also with Liv Tyler). The best was the one when the guy was calling a phone sex line, and you saw the woman he was fantasizing about, then the woman who was actually on the phone. (Sorry for no song names on thes last one; it's past my bedtime and my brain isn't functioning properly right now.) :shrug:
