I don't visit Youtube these days as most of it seems to be a breeding ground of illegality. Being anally honest (someone called me that ) I'd be a hypocrite to look, but my favourite clip used to be "Take on Me" by Aha (1985 I think). I guess it's on there somewhere...
Take On Me Lyrics
We're talking away I don't know what I'm to say I'll say it anyway Today's another day to find you Shying away I'll be coming for your love, OK?
Take on me, take me on I'll be gone In a day or two
So needless to say I'm odds and ends But that's me stumbling away Slowly learning that life is OK. Say after me It's no better to be safe than sorry
Take on me, take me on I'll be gone In a day or two
Oh the things that you say Is it life or Just a play my worries away You're all the things I've got to remember You're shying away I'll be coming for you anyway
Take on me, take me on I'll be gone In a day or two
You can tell from the lyrics that English wasn't their first language.

Here's another music video I love.
I Want More is a song recorded by UK dance group Faithless, released as a single on 23 August 2004. It features a vocal sample from the singer and pianist Nina Simone (from "Tell Me More and More and Then Some" on the 1965 album Pastel Blues).
The music video features excerpts from the documentary A State of Mind about two North Korean schoolgirls and their families in the lead up to the Mass Games – the biggest and most elaborate human performance on earth.
Lyrics [Nina Simone] I want more I want some And then some And do you know what I wanna hear?
I want more I want some more And then some I want more (3x)
You know how I love that stuff I want more (3x)
[Maxi Jazz] I want more
[Nina Simone] I want more The waiting's been so long, so long. I want more Been so long
[Maxi Jazz] I want more
More oneness, less categories, Open hearts, no strategies. Decisions based upon faith and not fear. People who live right now and right here. I want the wisdom that wise men revere.
[Maxi Jazz & Nina Simone] I want more (4x)
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit.
I remember being completely mezmerized when I first saw this video. It was hilariously kitschy, and it largely inspired the Sims version that I made.
It's byfar my favourite song/video of 2005/06. And Basement Jaxx's 'U Don't Know Me' video was utterly brilliant. Some of the "survelliance footage" was apparantly shot on my 16th birthday lol.
I use to be a Video Hits / Rage junky in my 20's. But as I am now in my (mid!) 30's I've kinda had other stuff to do in the early morning (like sleep ). That said, nothing beats the classic 80's super-clips from Michael Jackson and Madonna. MJ really started it all with Thriller. Anyone who remembers that will recall it was something like 20 minutes long in full-form and you could buy it on VHS I think!
Anyway, for the true camp classics, nothing beats:
I stumbled across this really odd music video a couple of days ago which is comprised solely of clips from the Andy Griffith Show (with the singer "Peaches" being edited into the vid).
Just a reminder how to use the YouTube tool - Click on Post Reply (not the quick reply down the bottom) then click the YouTube button. This will put a YouTube tag in the message. Then, copy the end bit of the YouTube URL eg. r4yndU6NqUE and place between the YouTube tag.
