Remember when music videos were a cultural event? Remember when MTV actually played videos? Post a great music video. I particularly love this one because you can barely hear the song; that's how into the concept they got.

    I don't know why I can't embed, but if somebody quotes my post it should show up.

  • I bet you tried to do Everlong, but since they've disabled embedding on all of them, you went with this. I know, I tried too.

    All the Gondry stuff rules (including Everlong). Love Sugarcube too, that video got me into Yo La Tengo.

    A personal favourite:

    That video reminds me of those amateur video contests MTV ran in its early years. I distinctly remember watching this video win one time.
