As stated in the title of the thread. What music video do you enjoy watching the most? For me it is Kenna-Hellbent. I first saw this video in college. It completely changed my views on music. The song is by the group Kenna, but the visuals are from a short film.

These are sort of shotgunned in, with a decided slant towards pop and the demotic. I've got some Johnny Cash in there as well as some RHCP and Talking Heads, with a nod to Michael Gondry. They probably aren't my favorite videos but they're at least present in their uniforms, which counts for something. Lady Gaga actually makes some all right videos, at least in the sense that they're visually compelling, sleek, somewhat eccentric (albeit in a contrived way) and energetic.

Does that video bring back memories of the time period, or is there another reason why it is your favorite video?

Even though I can't relate to the time period, it just speaks to me. It's heavily nostalgic in atmosphere, both in sound and with the video.

I really like that RHCP video

Yea, I got the same feeling from it. For me it would be more like 1999 though. Ahhh the memories of youth. Wish I could have somehow had the ability to enjoy it even more while it lasted. To be invincible and carefree again.

This is my favorite music video ever made mainly because the band does not give a shit to even make this video in the first place for VEVO. I don't know what the story is behind this, but my guess is that their label company required them to make this video and so they did it, in humor.

I cry in laughter every time I watch this especially when they have to stop to let a car pass by.
