I'm not a huge Foo fighters fan, but this song is a good one, and the video is awesome.

Alright, I already added one Tool video, but I can resist adding one more. Their videos (and songs) are awesome:

Their live performance (again with the USC marching band) is excellent. Pretty sure playing this via their "The Dance" DVD is what caused my 2700 watt Carver sub to cave in!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbSx99Yq400

Was looking for the next song from that performance (Don't Stop) and YouTube had this gem from Bill Clinton's inaugeral ball.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTCj9Sj224E

Clinton up on stage when Wacko Jacko comes up....

Anyways, back to the videos... lots of good references That Kylie Minogue video dumbfounded me when it was released. Well done.

Absolutely remember when "Round and Round" came out. Great tune. Another great Ratt tune (man I did like them in their day) was "You're In Love"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbtDA8i6h4c

Someone referenced how much they liked Def Leppard's "Slang" tune in Okotokers thread. Here is the cool vid.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xy4HA4MSRPM'

I think it was KFF that referenced a Peter Gabriel "Sledgehammer" vid. Gabriel had several other ones that were quite well done including "Steam". This version includes those often annoying (but sometimes hilarious) balloons describing points in the video.

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

Back into some harder rock, it amazes me that I do not think I have ever seen Judas Priest's video for "You've Got Another Thing Comin'". Granted in the hey day of video music in bars when I grew up, this wasn't usually considered dance music...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gU7sBgjKDCI

Always liked lady rockers. Bif Naked's "Tango Shoes" is one that will always catch my eye...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lc9JC0Gub0

Another hair band, Helix, had some good tunes. I have always liked this video for "Running Wild in the 21st Century"

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

And a couple of videos from rock bands that didn't normally make the dance floors except for these tunes...

AC/DC "Who Made Who"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhBChOeIaVU

Judas Priest "Turbo Lover"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhlWjjK9JkU

Wow I'm surprised to see how many Stoner rock fans their are.
Here are some of favourites (sorry if they have been said).

Acid King - Heavy, slow, wicked female singer.
Atomic Bitchwax - Very under rated band.
Bottom - Heavy with again a great female singer.
Dozer - Great band.
Electric Wizard - Sludgy and at times too heavy for me.
Fu Manchu - Awesome, fast, fuzzed out guitars, all songs about cars and racing, can't go wrong.
Isis - Opened for Tool recently, good stuff.
Kyuss - Legends and inventors of stoner rock.
Melvins - Most recent album is was more my style.
Peeping Tom - Good guitars.
Pelican - No vocals all instruments, much better than you think.
Queens of the Stone Age - Members from Kyuss, early stuff is great.
The Sword - This just begs to be played catastrophicaly loud.
Truckfighters - Fuzzed out with a sound of their own.
Witch - Heavy with a 70's feel.
Wolfmother - Could be stoner, could be indie, but has a 70's influence.

Also http://www.stonerrock.com/ is a great source for this music, both for discussion, buying, and listening.

Hakan and Cerebral, great call on the Sigur Ros videos. Astonishing videos to accompany some pretty astonishing music. Any video of theirs is brilliant.

Some more:

Hawksley Workman - No Beginning No End
Very stylish video, sombre feel to it; very well done and shot in Paris IIRC
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkqrov1-WM0


Hawksley Workman - Jealous of Your Cigarette
I believe this won an award. One of those cool one-take videos. Funny too.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgxltDbSDec

Hope of the States - Black Dollar Bills
Very cool animated video done by a group called type2error, I think.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCZeoy1ZU4I

Matthew Good - Weapon
Stylish, well done
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSrlFY5uUrQ

MGB - The Future is X-Rated
Great video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D319TSkfvyU


Good thread, guys.

Women in Uniform

Some wild special effects in that one. I think James Cameron was involved.
