I remember listening to Foo Fighters(Everlong, Learn to Fly,…) and enjoying some music and having a laught at the video. Recently i discovered this:
Salvatore Ganacci - Step-Grandma
Which music video you, for the music or video production, would like to share ?
I like a video that turns the camera around and features real people, and these were extra-special in the time before stuff like easy video production and streaming.
But I especially like what the band Cake did with Short Skirt/Long Jacket, where they went around letting people preview the song and give their reactions on camera. And the reactions were… actually pretty mixed.
Anything done by Michel Gondry, but this is a favorite: https://youtu.be/gLESpHrtvxs?si=zdeITwz-fe29LJlU
I just can’t imagine how much time was spent making that.
That is a band that i didnt listen for a long time, remember that The White Stripes - I Just Don’t Know What to Do With Myself caused a stir in mtv at release.
Nnamdi - Wasted
One of my favorite artists I’ve discovered in the past couple of years. Great bizarre video for a oddly earwormy song
Weezer - Pork and Beans is a really interesting snapshot of YouTube in the late 2000s; you see all the big people of the day doing trends of the day while singing with the members of Weezer. If that doesn’t sound awesome, I don’t know what is. Plus Hero by the same band is a really interesting pandemic video that is one of the few “artist tries to relate to normal people during lockdown” things which actually work.
If you couldn’t tell, Weezer is my favorite band.
This is my favourite I can’t believe someone actually did this
Shaka Ponk - Gung Ho
Edit - I should add, this was one of the biggest bands in France, not some amateur thing, which makes it even funnier
Do movie/game soundtracks count?
i dont see why not 👍
Much of the music I happen to listen to is instrumental and/or comes from video games, with the occasional vocal song here and there, and if I had to share a music video it would be the finale song called Answers designed for the old release of Final Fantasy 14. Other things I’d share exist though.
I remember for a time I’ve listened to an internet radio station called RPGamers that specializes in game soundtracks, which most people listen to because the instrumentals make it easy to concentrate, and, perhaps because I needed a mood lightener, I’d spam requests for the Deckard Cain Rap, a silly rap song that plays as an Easter Egg in Diablo, to the eventually-discovered chagrin of listeners who without a doubt consider me a troll for it because the song for a while would get an overwhelming amount of dislikes/downvotes when it played. And just that tempts me to share that as well.
You could watch every video that OK go ever made. They’re all stunning.
This one blew my mind. OK go - The one moment

Touhou 4 arrange ~ BAD APPLE!!
Just because I can, LOL.
Some Australian stuff in the 90s was… Interesting https://youtu.be/CkpP8ElRfYk?si=Xz3-x6tjrv-pOI4P
That’s a good video lol.
Many have probably already seen this, but when I think of impressive music videos I think of “Biting Elbows - Bad Motherfucker”
I may get ridiculed for this, but it’s just so damn pop-tastic and fun. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you…
Gosh that’s weird.
HEY! You’re me! I mean, we’re us! Hello myself.
Capital Cities - Safe and Sound
I love the vibe.
I love this song so much!!
