"From what I remember as I child"
Thank you for making me feel old.
Anytime son. By child, well I do mean child. I'm 25, so these videos, save the Grandmaster (not sure how I remember it but for some reason I remember seeing it sometime), came out when I was in late elementary school or jr. high. I grew up with this music. that, and the whole grunge era will be part of my life forever.
Here's a video of Sufjan, not a music video, but him playing atop our (Cincinnati) Music Hall. He was in town last year for a show. Here's him covering the Innocence Mission "Lakes of Canada."
I showed that Reggie and the Full Effect video to some couchsurfers (whom's couch we were crashing) and we laughed our asses off! Great great stuff. Thanks Blah!
Quick story: In the fall of 1997, I took my first graduate school class. It was a Music Video class. Coms degrees are great. Anyway, I wrote my big paper on the following Queen video. 5 points to the first person to name the film reference.
Queen - Radio Ga Ga
And a few more that I've always liked.
Johnny Cash - Hurt (Most powerful video ever)
Superdrag - Sucked Out (always loved this one)
Chris Isaak - Wicked Game (What can I say, I was at an impressionable age when this came out)
Urge Overkill - Take A Walk (View Of The Rain) (Beautiful song originally on the No Alternative compilation, the video was made for the HIV/AIDs bennifit as well)
