I don't really watch a lot of music videos, so I'm just gonna list a few of my favorites

Bad Motherfucker by Biting Elbow by far and away

Still Feel by Half Alive is mesmerizing. I'm a straight guy but the lead singer is still my type

Starlight Brigade by TWRP rekindled my interest in Spelljammer, and also I think the animation is so pretty

Magnum Bullets by TWRP is also very nice to look at

Battleborn's intro cinematic might not technically be a music video, but it's my favorite video game cinematic of all time

Pink Floyd - The Wall

Big Data and Joywave - Dangerous (it's pretty NSFW btw.).

I still remember how i heard that tune for the first time and how surprised i was in which direction the music video went.

How to Play the Lizardmen (Total War: Warhammer II) (Mr. Blue Sky - Electric Light Orchestra)

I personally find the music video for Radioactive by Imagine Dragons to be absolutely hilarious. The juxtaposition of serious and nonsense is so good, it just gets me every time. Even though I think the actual song is way better as covered by Within Temptation. Seriously though, go watch that music video and tell me it's not hilarious.

My 2 picks:

Afterlife - Flatbush Zombies

Deutschland - Rammstein

Blockhead - The Music Scene

I always admired the concept for the video for Stone Sour’s “Through Glass.”

Porter Robinson - Dullscythe

I can't remember the band or the song, but I remember the VH1 pop-up version where they told you tidbits during the video. The whole thing was 1 take (shot on film in those days) and included a part where they passed the camera through a car. The camera operator had to hand the camera off to someone, run around to the other side of the car and then take it back without it looking like that happened, and while everyone was singing in time. I was a film student at the time and in awe about how well it was done. So much so that I can still see that part, but I cannot remember the song.

TMBG - Lake Monsters

Highly Suspect - Lydia

Marina Kazankova (the freediver) filmed the entire thing in one take, no cuts or edits...bonkers.

death grips and crumb have some great music videos

i also think always by blink 182 is amazing, love the idea and exectution

Björk have made some that are absolutely spectacular, she has a way of making you feel what she feels with her voice and the visual impressions, she pulls you into her world. She's one of those artists that are completely unique and deeply talented.

Death Grips - Beware because no man can run as fast in the desert as MC Ride can.

I was always fond of the video for by Cibo Matto. Didn't necessarily care for the song, but the video was directed by Michel Gondry.

The Stage - Avenged Sevenfold

First few times I heard the song, it was just on in the background and I wasn't paying much attention to the lyrics. Like... okay, we're watching you perform on a stage? Weird thing to write a song about, but whatev; sounds cool so screw it.

Finally pulled up the video and it went from "lol marionette puppets!" to "Oh... OOOH. Hoooooly shit!" pretty damn quick.

Now it gives me shivers every time it comes on.
