- The video clip allways weirds me out but I’ll never stop watching when it’s on.
Fatboy Slim - Weapon of choice
- Christopher Walken kills it.
The prodigy - Smack my removed up

Aphex twin also gets a solid place in my heart. Love all of their videos
C2C - Delta
Depeche Mode - Wrong
Metallica - One
The full version. I saw it on Mtv when I was a kid, maybe 7 or 8, and it altered me.
It’s a good chunk of why I dove head-first into metal. I was into Van Halen, Yes, Rush, etc., but that single (One, haha!) video hooked me for good.
Now, as an old guy, I take inspiration from about everything except pop & country. But damn, I STILL watch that video every now and then when I’m in the mood.
“I’m really happy for you, I’mma let you finish, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time!"
All of Little Big’s videos. Here is Hypnodancer
Birth of crabcore, baby!
I know OP and multiple commenters already said OkGo, but these songs/videos have been a micro obsession of mine the past week and I can’t pass up the chance to share them

For this one, the entire song is played via percussive methods by driving a car on a prepared track with improvised instruments. Damian, the lead singer, had to learn stunt driving to drive the car at specific speeds for different parts of the track. They calculated the spacing of instruments over the distance as well as how much time it would take to maneuver to different parts of the course and the speeds necessary to maintain the correct beats per minute. They used over 280 guitars and 55 pianos, and modified the car with audio equipment and levers to control what mallets were extended. The song ends up sounding rough, frustrated, desperate and pained which is perfect for the lyrics, and IMO better than the studio version.
The other one is Upside Down and Inside Out. The song alone is not my cup of tea, and yet with this video it’s really incredible. They recorded the video in 27 second increments of parabolic flight to make the whole thing happen while they’re weightless. In the times between takes, they had to endure 30 seconds of 2x gravity and then wait 5-10 minutes to climb again. The sequences are edited together, so if any of them didn’t make it back to their marks in time the take wasn’t usable. They spent two weeks messing around experimenting with choreography and props, and one week filming.

They do making of’s on a lot of their videos, and it’s truly incredible the amount of time and planning and preparation and ambition they have for them.
For me it will always be A-Ha’s “Take On Me”, though basically any of OK Go’s videos also deserve consideration for sheer creativity.
For anyone who might not have seen it: Take On Me - A-Ha.
Take on Me is the correct answer.
Ok Go was the first one I thought of
The first one I thought of, but not the one I decided on.
Jamiroquai - Virtual Insanity
I think most of their music videos are pretty good, but I’ve always liked this one the most I think.
Electric Callboy - We Got The Moves
I think this is my favorite song off the new album. I wasn’t paying attention to the lyrics on my first listen and legit thought it was a cover of a classic boy band song until the metal hits.
Knew the song but hadn’t watch the video. Incredible the little hands and microphone 😂
The finger hands are my favorite.
Don’t really have a fave but here are some I enjoy:
This is America is a true work of art.
