Your favorite Youtube music videos?

After playing around with an app called "iLike" on facebook (you can get tons of free indie-band MP3s and watch music videos with it), and realizing that most of the music videos were actually linked to youtube, I started exploring. Great stuff! The sound is obviously not CD quality, nor is the video DVD quality, but still, a fun way to pass some time on a slow day!

Here's a few lovely tunes I found today....add your links too. It could be interesting to find out what kind of music some members are into. No genre restrictions. I may be a rocker, but I like everything from classical to jazz to metal!

Danko Jones - The Sound of Love

Our Lady Peace - Somewhere Out There (that falling girl is smokin hot!)

    Sweet. I've always had a soft-spot (well, maybe a hard one too) for Sheryl Crow.

    This is one of my current faves.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCUcbRTB6Rs

    And here's a link to the original recording.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIF12DXaC60

    In addition to being a fantastic song and record, the two different versions are a nice study in originals vs. covers. (I'm partial to the cover.)

    Here's another, which I like for a number of reasons. For one, it was the height of punk-rock in the UK, all the 'dinosaurs' of prog-rock supposedly swept away by the rising tide of safety pins and plegm, and here they were, not caring tuppence. God love 'em. This was before Ian Anderson became a career megalomaniac too..

    Jethro Tull - velvet Green

    It's also worth mentioning that David Palmer (the dude with the bow-tie and beard, on keyboards) is now a 'lady' - 'Dee' Palmer. Hands down, the ugliest woman you'll ever see

    I also love the sound of that little Martin parlour acoustic, just wonderful.

    My fave pro video
    Don't Come Around Here No More
    one of the most imaginative & artistic videos to date. it also helps that tom petty is the spitting image of the mad hatter!

    Hello,

    We licensed our tune for this CBS/Showtime promo for the TV show "Dexter." Warning: the protagonist of this show is a "loveable" serial killer. I don't really get it and it is quite violent, but apparently a popular show.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_q939DvMdck

    The Dexter piece uses "parody" lyrics, but there are 100's (maybe 1,000's) of montages done to the actual tune.

    http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=88+lines&search_type=

    Originally recorded in 1980 on a 4-track Teac 3340S, mastered for $145.00 on a 1950's Scully lathe with 1940's drivng amps, EQ and JBL monitors and released on our own record company on a 12 inch EP. The version on YouTube is our major label re-recording. The tune has shown to have "legs" as they say in marketing. I guess my favorite is any video that uses my tune, but I do like the one "in drag."

    GK

    Yup, it's such a great success story too! An unknown band on a low budget, they got the lead singer's sister to choreograph & shoot the video--I read somewhere it took 17 takes. Now, 42 million hits on YouTube later (and I think they won a Grammy for it, too), I hear that song on pop radio all the time. Just goes to show you a little bit of creativity can outdo all the big boys in the industry.

    Woo! What an entertaining thread this is turning out to be! Lots of cool, funny, and downright impressive stuff! I was blown away by the acoustic guitar playing in "Angry Words" and the "Two-Hand Guitar" tunes...I had to replay them several times in awe of the playing. And that treadmill dancing on "Here It Goes Again" was a hoot! Excellent stuff!

    Oh hell, dude - thanks!! This is what I meant by a "I wonder if....?" search - hadn't thought of MW in years - takes me back......

    And all of the Andy McKee stuff - been aware of him for a couple years now. Guys like him are why I just laugh when people tell me I'm a good guitarist - can't even get my head around technique like that.....
