Favorite Music Video/Song

[dukedogsmom]

GreenDay has a great song/video out right now. Wake Me Up When September Ends. It's especially sad because it hits so close to home about the war. I can't watch it without crying.
What are yours?

Music videos, huh? Well...the first one that comes to mind is Weezer's video for "Island in the Sun." It's such a bright, sweet song, anyway...and, the video is all outdoors with the band and all these little baby animals, it's so relaxing and fun. Weezer's video for "Keep Fishin" is funny as anything, it has the Muppets in it! Kermit and Gonzo (and maybe even animal) even have little Weezer tee shirts on. :)

I always liked Michael Jackson's Thriller video...

The video for Gary Jules' version of "Mad World" (from the Donnie Darko soundtrack) is really cool.

Beyonce's video on the Austin Powers Goldmember DVD, for "Work it Out." Hot, hot, hot. It's just a lot of fun!

I'm sure there are more, but, it's been a long time since I have seen MTV or anything where there were music videos.

Guster doesn't have many music videos, but, what they do have is always good. :)

edited: anita reminded me...one of my all time favorite videos is Fat Boy Slim's "Weapon of Choice" with Christopher Walken dancing through a hotel, it's genius! :)

My favourite video is Fat Boy Slim, The Jocker... I don't know if you remember it, but it was so adorable, with all these beautiful kitties!:D I didn't like the song so much, but I couldn't watch the video without saying awww...

Kari it is funny you should mention THRILLER, I just found an old cassette of it and was playing it yesterday, it was one of his best releases IMO.

I enjoy watching the Hell Freezes Over video of the Eagles, I went to the live concert here and it brings back some pleasant memories.

Well, I don't get to see too many videos because we don't have any channels that play videos, but I do like Nobody's Home by Avril Lavigne. I also like Making Memories of Us by Keith Urban. Actually, any video with Keith in is is good. ;) There's more but those are a couple. I also like Wake Me Up When September Ends.

Funny you should mention this, Val. Since the song was released (a long while back) I loved the song Wake Me Up When September Ends. However, I'm not a BIG fan of the music video, sure it hits close to home for some people with the war and stuff... I just didn't like it all that much. But I love the song.. I could listen to it all day long, it's so relaxing.

My other favourite song by Green Day is The Grouch, featured in the CD "Nimrod". I don't know why I love it so much.. it's not a "nice" song, meaning a lot of cursing and such.

I love the music video "The Reason" for Hoobastank - and song, of course.

I love a lot of the music videos and songs that are out right now, but I probably like the older ones better because I saw the video when I first heard the song, and such. When I listen to a song, I love it so much that I think most videos for it just suck.

How could I forget the music video for Paul Simon's song, "You Can Call Me Al", that is a great one! :)

[DesertArabian]

Brad Paisley's Whiskey Lullaby is my favorite video, wouldn't say it is my "favorite" song though (too sad!)

[PJ's Mom]

I love the song "Live Like You Were Dying" by Tim McGraw but the video is a little weak. :)

I named my kitty Weezie after this video! I love orange kitties and was planning on getting a little orangie to name Weezer...but as I always say, when we got home, we found out that our Weez-er was actually a Weez-ie!

As for music videos and songs, my favorite video is Emotion Sickness by silverchair and that's my second-favorite song. My favorite song is Ana's Song (Open Fire) by silverchair and it has my second-favorite music video:D

That is so cool! I'm actually watching the video right now...those kittens and puppies are so sweet...and, that little baby chimp! The way he plays with the band, and, the band is so genuine with him. It's amazing. Definitely in my top five favorite videos. It almost makes me cry, even now. It totally did the first few times I saw it. :)

Me, too! I remember when I first saw it...it was on really late (or really early), around 3 am. It was amazing, I'd never seen anything like it. Still haven't! I'd always loved Walken, but, this sent him through the roof for me. :)
