Greatest music videos???

Post by Neil »

I'm looking to download videos and make VCD-s outta them since I love watching music videos (too bad MTV blows now so I don't see much of them). My list is small right now that I have.

I'm into mostly modern rock....alternative......rap/rock.....rap....etc. Don't like country so don't tell me them vids :lol: I do like some of the older stuff, but not a great deal as far as videos.

Gimmie insights, your fav videos, recommendations, etc.

Hm, I was thinking of this recently and can't remember what I was thinking of, oy.

Lemme see...

OLP - Thief and In Repair, that's easy
Coldplay - The Scientist
Matthew Good Band - Apparitions, Carmelina, Anti-Pop
...
Damnit! I'm forgetting the one that inspired me to think about this in the first place!

It's ages since I saw a decent music video - I don't have cable or satellite and the normal channels just play pop rubbish. Here are the good videos that I can remember:

Today - Smashing Pumpkins
Black Hole Sun - Soundgarden
That video by Radiohead where they're all lying on the ground (is it Just?)
Everybody Hurts - REM
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.


And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

Strange days is an awesome Matt Good video too.
The Verve - bitter sweet symphony

reggie and the full effect - Congratulations smack and katie (peanut butter riding a skateboard, how awesome is that)

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.
