As you can tell, I like to make AMVs, so I definitely like watching the official promo music videos for songs I like! Here are some of my all-time favorites off the top of my head along with my brief commentary on each on:
Stan Bush-The Touch

As a big lover of animation, I especially think that this video is awesome. Especially when the song and footage is from one of my favorite animated films of all time:Transformers The Movie
Mr. Big-Take Cover (Mega Man version)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBhC0alFAuU
I'm a big fan of Mega Man, and I remember hearing this song during the end credits of some of the episodes of cartoon series, and while this isn't the original version (the Mega Man clips were added by the uploader of the link) and that I specifically said official videos and versions of them only, I have to make an exception with this one. A very great revamp of the video.
John Parr-St. Elmo's Fire (Man In Motion)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVf4_WglzWA
Truly one of the best songs of the 80's hands down. This song is so powerful and anthemic and its music video compliments it nicely.
Mike + The Mechanics-Silent Running
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ep7W89I_V_g
This was an interesting video. Not really one of my favorite songs by the band, but the video was very interesting.
MC 900 Foot Jesus-If I Only Had A Brain
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiXoFUu2sCM&feature=fvst
Directed by the legendary Spike Jonze, this is one of the funniest music videos I ever saw. I remember the first time I saw it was on an episode of Beavis and Butt-head.
Beastie Boys-Sabotage
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5rRZdiu1UE&ob=av2e
Also by Spike Jonze, I think this is the best music video the Beastie Boys ever made. A hilarious spoof of cop shows from the 70's.
Green Day-Walking Contradiction
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5zEP4kvfnc&ob=av2e
Probably my favorite Green Day video, because it has the band just going around and unintentionally causing random chaos! XD Remember, it's just a music video.
There's more where this came from! I'm just listing what comes off the top of my head. |
