I would have to go with weapon of choice by fatboy slim and an obscure video for daft punk called around the world. My penis would like me to mention anything with shakira in it :)

pearl jam - jeremy and metallica - one because they're two of the most intense videos i've seen.
guns n roses- november rain because not only is it an awesome video in all other respects, but i love music videos with plotlines.
michael jackson - thriller ... wonderful cheesy horror film plot and you can't beat the zombie dance. plus its made like a fucking feature film and you gotta give him extra points for that much effort.
michael jackson - beat it, because the choreography's pretty awesome in that, too.
metallica - until it sleeps
beastie boys - fight for your right to party, because its just a whole lot of fun.
van halen - hot for teacher because its a classic all around.
and i have to say date rape by sublime because the charisma from brad nowell is awesome, its put together extremely well, its funny as hell and i love the colors.

i know i'm forgetting lots and lots of things.


and fugue_life, i've only seen that video once out of the corner of my eye but i love that song...

Metallica - One

A soldier in WWI has his arms and legs blown off, loses his vision, and his ability to hear or speak

basically he's a vegetable

It shows his struggle to try to understand whats going on and then pleads for people to kill him

it's powerful shit, watch it

I know they've been said a bunch of times already, but Weapon of Choice by Fatboy Slim is spectacular, as is The Reasons by The Weakerthans, for similar reasons. However, when it comes to music videos, The Beastie Boys take the proverbial cake. Not only is Sabotage the undisputed master of all music videos, but there's also Intergalactic, Body Moving, and a variety of others, including their latest hit, Ch-Check it Out. They are, beyond any shadow of a doubt, the ultimate music video force on the planet.

Okay most of these were already mentioned...

Smashing Pumpkins - Tonite, Tonite
Blur - Coffee and TV
Radiohead - Just
Radiohead - Knives Out (so friggin' weird man...)
Ben Folds - Rockin' the Suburbs

MxPx - Chick Magnet

http://www.kontraband.com/show/show.asp?ID=850

perhaps you can find a better source

Prodigy - Smack My Bitch Up.

A classic that fits the awesome track perfectly.

Michael Jackson - Thriller (revolutionized music videos IMO)

Prodigy - Smack my Bitch up (Nice twist at the end of that video)

Word to that!

Faith No More - Midlife Crisis: Twisted video that perfectly portrays the darker tones of the Angel Dust album. A HUGE change from what they (or any other band) normally did at that point. That point, to me, was THE best progression or change that a band went through that I've ever seen... I think it might've even topped NIN going from Pretty Hate Machine > Broken > The Downward Spiral. Totally blew me away. Even to this day, that song, that album.. wow.

Quote Unquote - Mr. Bungle

All NIN/Tool (especially Pinion/Happiness in Slavery.. totally fucked up vids)

Marilyn Manson - Sweet Dreams (especially the part where the band is standing in that blurry shot and the candles look like devil horns coming out of his head as his face is morphing into this distorted smile - very awesome effect)

Nirvana - Heart Shaped Box/Come as You Are/In Bloom (hard to decide, they're all kick ass)

Foo Fighter videos are well done :D

Queen - I want to Break Free
Van Halen - Hot for Teacher

AHA - Take On me ......I absolutely LOVE this video
Michael Jackson - Smooth Criminal and Billy Jean
Dave Matthews Band - Crash
Smashing Pumpkins - Tonight Tonight

Van Halen: Dream's/ Blue Angles 40th anniversery Video

I have 2 childhood favorites that I can still picture clearly in my head:
The Twisted Sisters - We're not gunna take it
Blackstreet - No diggity ( the puppets used to crack me up :) )

Disturbed-Prayer, It's just a wicked video, especially during the chorus.
REM-Everybody Hurts, At the end when the entire freeway is full of empty cars.
Radiohead-Just, Just a kick ass video, no other words are needed.

Faithless - Weapons of Mass Destruction

Did a-ha redo that song? or is that a different one from Duran Duran's version?

Here's another vote for GNR November Rain
Here's one to show my age...Krokus Screaming in the Night gosh I loved that video
Def Leppard Me and My Wine (the remake)
Bon Jovi- In and Out of Love

Beastie Boys - So What'cha Want
Beastie Boys - Sabatoge
A Tribe Called Quest - Scenario
