Hello Everybody. Here are my picks for the best music videos of all time:
10. Peter Gabriel- Sledgehammer-1988

Can't say musch about the artist, but great montage of color and psychedelia.
9. Radiohead- Karma Police- 1997

Simple idea, great music video. That's all there is too it!
8. R.E.M.- Losing My Religion- 1991

The Smells Like Teen Spirit....before Smells Like Teen Spirit. THE definitive moment in music was started by R.E.M. with this odd video and song.
7. Devo- Whip It- 1980

Who doesn't know the Whip It video, the red hats, etc?
6. Dire Straits- Money For Nothing- 1985

These graphics SUCK!!!..... Oh wait, it was the 80's. Despite its blocky look, it is still considered a groundbreaking video.
5. Alce and Chains- Man in the Box- 1991

A disturbing, haunting, and somewhat groundbreaking video... that has no meaning in the song whatsoever.
4. Beastie Boys- Sabotage- 1994

A hillarious video making fun of 70's tv.
3. Foo Fighters- The Pretender- 2007

Huh? Hundreds of riot officers getting trampled by Kool-Aid? Cool Video no doubt.
2. Weezer- Buddy Holly- 1994

What happens when you mix Happy Days, Weezer, and video guru Spike Jones? One of the best known videos of the 90's that's what!
1. Nirvana- Smells Like Teen Spirit- 1991

In my opinion, this video is the best one EVER MADE!!! Screw Michael Jackson's Thriller or Beat It! The shure significance of this video is another reason why it is my #1 pick.
Videos that just missed the cut:
Beck- Loser- 1994
The Breeders- Cannonball- 1994
Billy Idol- White Wedding(pt.1)- 1982
Fatboy Slim- Praise You- 1999
Dinosaur Jr.- Feel The Pain- 1994
The Offspring- Come Out And Play (keep em' seperated)- 1994
Foo Fighters- Everlong- 1997
John Lennon- Imagine- 1972
