I was surprised not to see a thread on this. I've found that MTV and VH1 actually still play music videos in the mornings, plus there's always YouTube. So what are your favorites? Least favorites?

Right now, I love OK Go's "Here it Goes Again" (the treadmill video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NINJQ5LRh-0)) - I've seen a couple dozen times, and I can't get enough! I also like Beyonce's "Ring the Alarm (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j980AUw5JC4)."

I hate Nelly Furtado's "Maneater (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0fDor7qIAM)." I don't like the song to begin with, and then the video itself is incredibly dumb - she chases her dog into a tunnel of some kind, where she meets a menacing group of male and female model/dancers. She then wins them over through the power of dance and they party all night.

Any other votes?

I love the Ok Go videos. Another vote for them.

My favorite videos are probably all about 10 years old. I love every single video from Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. To me they are all classics. Bullet with Butterfly Wings (my boyfriend at the time went out and bought himself a pair of silver pants after that was released), 1979, Tonight Tonight, Thirty Three, and Zero. I love, love, love all of them.

I also loved Radiohead's Paranoid Andriod video.

Oh! I did think of a somewhat newer video I love. Well, I actually think it's kind of creepy, but it grabs my attention and I get totally enthralled by it every time I see it. It's Evil by Interpol. The one with the muppet-looking guy on a hospital stretcher. Awesome song too.

My favourite radio station this morning chose Ok Go's "treadmill" video as their fave video of the year. Definitely a good one.

I haven't seen the Maneater video, but I was so completely disappointed by the entire album, I haven't given Nelly a second thought this around. I still can't believe she sang "Promiscuous" at the Teen Choice Awards (and I'm far from a prude, I swear). :mad:
