the video for "D.A.N.C.E." by justice might just be the coolest video i have seen in a long time. it helps that the song is catchy as hell.

Meh. They'll never top the greatest music video of all time (pops).

At times I feel sorry for today's youth, living in such a desolate musical age, then I'm reminded that I hate them so much.

I could swear I heard a version of D.A.N.C.E. years ago on some kids show. Electric company or something like that.

Your link did not go to Michael Jackson's "Thriller"... I am disappointed.

D.A.N.C.E. is a great video.

 
Peaceboy [TotalFark] 2007-12-22 04:20:58 PM  
I clicked up "Oh My" by Office, saw a decades-old Randy West, and knew I was in for something good. That was one of the best splicings of clips and band since Spike Jonze put Happy Days and Weezer together. Fun song, too.

Music For Kids Who Can't Read Good is an amazing blog! Love it!

Boy from school would qualify as best video I discovered in 2007, too bad it looks like its from last year. Always late to the party!

How did The Camaro Song not make the cut?

Wow, I was surprised I didn't see Destination Calabria (new window) on there...

I'm kinda surprised that Fair To Midland didn't make the cut. This video is amazing:

With the exception of Kanye West, I haven't heard of any of the other performers or their videos until now.

That being said, this is the best music video ever made, hands down.

Who the hell watches music videos any more?

When's the last time MTV showed one in its entirety?

Right on all counts, aye!


Of course, we can't have a list of this nature without including THIS video.

After seeing all these videos it gave me an idea. If current cd's being sold were actually dvds with music videos included for the majority of songs it would actually justify the cost of the album.

My 2 cents.


//would pay for High Def videos by themselves.

Oh wow, the sound quality really sucks on the video I posted above. Anyway, you get the idea.

I'm surprised that Battles is #1. I'm still trying to gauge how popular they are. Mirrored is a great album, but they still seem to have a limited fanbase.

Selling bloody well where I am... even if its all based on hype (mediocre, gimmicky album that tires after a few listens).

Don't mistake this for elitism; I didn't think I'd be this out of touch with music videos by age 24. Then again, I haven't seen a music video in years.

Of Montreal is finally breaking out, I'm psyched.

Different vid of theirs, better song.

Their song/album titles are still one-million percent too pretentious, however.

 
TADAMZ 2007-12-23 05:20:30 AM  
Wow, this list gets MAJOR props for having Parts and Labor on there. Great band, great guys, go see them if you have a chance.

Sorry, can't see the interest in d.a.n.c.e.

Two thumbs way up for Jarvis Cocker's Don't Let Him Waste Your Time. Sounds like Elvis Costello and the video is perfectomundo for Fark.

I thought it was going to be O Valencia by The Decemberists. Now THAT video had a shock ending.

its like they posted a video for every album pitchfork gave a good review.

Although not the newest, I've always liked Virtual Insanity (pops). It's really quite simple, but at the same time, really quite cool.

After reading all of this, it hit me.....I can't even remember the last time I watched a music video. Maybe we need a channel that shows them non-stop.

I second that. And the only reason I know about Kanye West is because everyone ridicules him on Fark.
