Favorite Music Video - Nubblies.net Forums

tonguegina · 12-17-2003, 02:22 AM

I've thought about adding this thread for a while. I have a ginormous amount of music videos on my computer that I have watched a ginormous amount of times, and I was wondering what peoples' favorites are.

There are many good ones out there...Learn to Fly by the Foo Fighters, Can't Stop and Soul to Squeeze by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Great Beyond by REM, The Scientist by Coldplay, How's it Gonna Be by Third Eye Blind...I can go on forever.

Of the many great ones out there, I'd have to say that Scar Tissue by the Red Hot Chili Peppers is my favorite, though. To me, it perfectly encapsulates what music means to me...four friends, crusin' in a car, just appreciating the music. Of course there's much more to the video than that, I can go into much deeper levels, but for me, if it weren't for drive time, I wouldn't listen to nearly as much music as I do.

Anyway...what's yours?

I really like The Shin's new video, though I can't recall the title at the moment. Great album too.

Ugly Bastard · 12-17-2003, 03:30 AM

Coldplay's "The Scientist" is probably the most amazing video I have ever seen.

ludacris i don't know the name of the song but it goes....when i move you move just like that
i don't like rap...but that video is hilarious

Ugly Bastard · 12-17-2003, 03:53 PM

Ludacris' "Stand Up" is the video you are referring to...and yes, it is a humorous one.

the original uncensored video for 'Smack My Bitch Up' is fucking amazing.

Titan · 12-22-2003, 08:26 PM

Hell yes it is.
It's absolutely brilliant.

ninjaface · 12-23-2003, 03:22 AM

Fatboy Slim - Weapon of Choice

Christopher Walken is simply amazing.

Fruitacious B · 12-23-2003, 03:28 AM

The White Stripes - Seven Nation Army

Brand New - The Quiet Things that No One Ever Knows

Two incredibly badass videos, and my top two favs as of now.

If you like Seven Nation Army, make sure you see The Hardest Button To Button.

A newer music video that I've seen about 5 or 6 times in the last week: No Doubt-It's My Life. I listen to them occasionally, saw the music video on MTV, and thought it was extremely interesting. Has anyone else seen it?

Haha...that is a good one. I like seeing celebrities in music videos...Robin Williams and Chevy Chase come to mind as well as Walken.

I'm rather fond of Brand New-Sic Transit Gloria I believe it's called.

silver and cold · 12-24-2003, 04:48 PM

Silver and Cold- AFI
Davey tries to kill himself, but instead the rest of the band dies and hes the only one living...I found it quite interesting.

Amret · 12-24-2003, 08:24 PM

Outkast - i like the way you move

Niger Angelus · 12-25-2003, 12:55 AM

Hmm...favorite video, this one is tough. I think I am going to have to get back to you all on this one.

Brand New - Sic Transit Gloria...Glory Fades

Not that I'm a fan or anything..........

Gotta say:

Coldplay - The Scientist. I am in love with this song, and the video perfectly (and I mean, PERFECTLY) compliments it. Wonderful.

The White Stripes - The Hardest Button To Button. I don't know about you guys, but the picture of all those amps just makes me get all horny inside. Just a perfectly constructed video.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Maps. Holy shit folks, Karen O. She's just....amazing? Yes. Amazing. So, when I see her, I realize that she's my bride to be, and it makes me happy inside. And this video is just great. The song is great too. If you thought that this little trio was only capable of howling rock, then give this little ditty a listen.

Pliedes, the Shins song that you're looking for is "So Says I". It's the one with the penguins killing each other and putting together coups. Wonderful stuff.

Oh! How could I forget. Radiohead has a good selection of videos that tickle my fancy, but there are two that bowl me over. If you can, check out "Fade Out (Street Spirit)" and "Just". Very smart, very wonderful in every way.

Niger Angelus · 12-27-2003, 06:30 PM

Atreyu - Lip Gloss and Black. I like how she is doing at that dirty shit to him, and then he just leaves with her sitting tied to the chair.

I like Brand New and the video for Sic Transit Gloria.

Percipere'Chan · 12-30-2003, 03:21 AM

Gotta put my vote in for Coldplay here.

Not only was "Trouble" a graphic designer's orgasm but, the music and lyrics fit the song sublimely. I don't know why I haven't seen their "The Scientist" video yet but, I have a feeling it's going to be way up there too.

victim · 12-31-2003, 04:17 AM

Now, I don't watch a lot of music videos, especially considering that the standard way of getting a chance to view them (MTV) causes my blood to boil and induces a murderous rage deep within the deepest depths of my soul 9 times out 10. That being said, I caught the video for "Trouble" once, and it sticks out in my mind.

(I also have a very fuzzy memory of once seeing a Radiohead video with some kind of animated whale or something of that nature, does such a thing actually exist?)

Isn't that a bit redundant?

The video for Karma Police is animated. However, the only sea creature of sorts is a mermaid with large breasts. While other of their videos might be animated, this is the only one I can recall at the moment.

victim · 12-31-2003, 04:40 PM

Well, then, it was probably Karma Police. Thanks.

That's the video for Paranoid Android and a good and long one it is. The video for Karma Police is the one with Thom in the car.
