Radiohead - There There
http://youtube.com/watch?v=981-ONeXBfw

Completely nuts.


Radiohead - Knives Out
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C76yAdBtaAI

This video scared the living daylights out of me when it first came out. It was my first exposure to Radiohead, and I loved it.

Edited to add this:

Pink Floyd - A Saucerful Of Secrets
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZUR22CiYqY

Not really an official "video" as such. Pink Floyd weren't video people. From the Live At Pompeii film which is well worth buying.

Sigur Ros - 'Hoppipolla'

This video (like all Sigur Ros videos) has beautiful visuals, tells a great story, and ends up being kinda touching. Goes fantastically with the music. Sigur Ros seriously have the absolute best music videos.

This is another beautiful, touching, and classic video. If you don't like this video, I will fight you. :wink:

UNKLE - 'Rabbit In Your Headlights'

One of my favorite music videos. I remember the first time I saw it I just dropped whatever I was doing and stared at the screen. The sybolism is so harsh yet fitting. Truthfully one of if not the most powerful music video I can think of.

A quick review:

1. Loved the fresh 90s dance moves. :up:

2. They could have at least gotten hotter ho's to be in the video. :down:

3. I really appreciated the public service announcement concerning the genre of their music in the middle of the video. Thanks, BBD! :happy:

Another great one. I love the big climax of the song/run up the hill part. I considered adding more than one Sigur vid, but just went with my present fav. When I bought Takk they gave me a DVD of the Glosoli vid for free. Sweet deal.

FYI, the Untitled 1 EP comes with a great DVD of all of their Agaetis Byrjun & () videos. Easily worth it just for the DVD by itself, let alone the b-sides on the CD.
 
I'm too lazy to search for links, but one of my all-time favorite videos is Talking Heads' "Burning Down The House" :up:
 
I'm posting this not because it's particularly my favorite video or even my favorite Idlewild video, but because of the wall of lights. I was so annoyed by all the "Coldplay are ripping off U2 in their music video!!!1!!!" crap last year and always wanted to show people this video. Holy crap, they both ripped Idlewild off! :wink:


Idlewild - 'American English'
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24aPNJF6M2c
 
I don't have any YouTube links to post for the moment, but I do have to say that those DVDs of The Directors Series are excellent! Great videos by great directors. At the moment I have Spike Jonze, Michel Gondry, Stephane Sednaoui and Anton Corbijn.
:drool:
