Some vids I've been digging so far this year:

1. KT Tunstall - "Black Horse and Cherry Tree" (dir. Sophie Muller)
2. E-40 f/ Keak da Sneak - "Tell Me When to Go" (dir. Bernard Gouley / Lil' Jon)
3. Coldplay- "Talk" (dir. Anton Corbijn)
4. The All-American Rejects - "Move Along" (dir. Marc Webb)
5. The Strokes - "Jukebox" (dir. Mike Palmieri)

any other good ones you guys've been watching?

I didn't check any directors but

1. Kanye - Touch the Sky. I love cheesy throwbacks.
2. Coldplay - Talk. nice video, reminds me of the pumpkins and beastie boys put together.
3 Tom Vek - C-C (you set the fire in me). I really like this song and the video is pretty nifty. the video might be from 05 though.

I dont watch much by way of music videos

6.(?) The Streets - When You Wasn't Famous (Another perfect match up of song and visual form.)

I just caught this video a few minutes ago. Great over-the-top stuff

Though I think it's technically a 2005 video, "My Friend Dario" by Vitalic is pretty good too.

9. The Like-June Gloom

yeah, this video is really great with the song. made me like the track more than i previously did.

10. Royksopp - "Only This Moment"
youtube link

EDIT: Directed By: Brendan McNamee & Robert Chandler

Metric - "Poster of a Girl"

12. Hot Chip - "Over and Over"

Best video of the year thus far for one of the best singles so far.

Does anyone here subscribe to Fuse? Is it worth it? The program guide looks intriguing, as is what I see on screens while out & about. Sorry for the thread detour.

why isn't emily haines a star yet?

Metric is becoming quite a major draw in Canada now.

I have fuse up here at college, its supplied with cable along with MTV2 and I must say, fuse is pretty bad. its basically trl with a harder image. very bad, not worth paying for.



my girlfriend just got back from canada and told me

They have alot of "your" bands. so I got too have her listen to me spew off canadian bands and she said she heard a few. pretty cool stuff.

hot chip youtubed for your conveneice

holly balls, how do you spell conveneice?

I don't get the Hot Chip love at ALL

"convenience"

The vid for the new T.I. is kinda underwhelming considering how good the song is but its cool for west coast throwback fun.

I don't know, I always have to go to my iTunes and search for "Kings of" then the "Convenience" shows up. You were close.

I couldn't agree with you more.

13. Hard-Fi - "Cash Machine" (dir. James Shanks)

Don't let this thread die.<br>

14. Loose Fur - "Hey Chicken" (I thought it wasn't an official video at first, but it's on their Drag City page).<br><br>

Lookee! I figured out how to imbed youtube!

15. Sean Paul - "Temperature" (dir. Lil' X & RT)
16. Busta Rhymes f/ Everyone - "Touch It (Remix)" (dir. Benny Boom & Busta Rhymes)

metric is sooooooooo lame, dead disco, good tune...the rest of is shiet, especially the new album

trust me i am canadian and get to here it allllllllllll the fucking time

17. Kelis F/ Too Short-Bossy (Director??? It looks like Jake Nava's work. And if so, he's quickly turning sex appeal into an art.)

Sausage rocks.

As much I don't really like this song... or this band in general, I found myself kinda enjoying the video... the hell's wrong with me?

Editors - "Munich"

<br>Eagles Of Death Metal

That Eagles of Death Metal video is awesome. I mean, you have Jack Black and Dave Grohl, a guitar solo induced orgasm, and Josh Homme checking his watch while drumming. What else do you need?

i have to say that my favorite video to have come out recently is Hoppipola by Sigur Ros. is it wrong that old people jumping in puddles turns me on? ahhh...he who holds the answer to that question holds the very key to our existence in his palm...

did vitalic video come out in 2006? the one with bunch of dogs in it? that's my favourite.

This band ROCKS! They opened for the Strokes and got one of the best reactions for any opening band I've ever seen. Awesome, awesome stuff.

No one's bothering to number this shit anymore, are they? Oh well.

Boards of Canada - "Dayvan Cowboy" (dir. unknown)

Franz Ferdinand - Eleanor Put Your Boots On

I like the slower tempoed version with the piano better. Screw the stupid banjos.
