Wierd Music Videos

Nailz

I've seen some wierd music videos in the last few days, I'm extreamly interested in these artists ideas, some unbelievably genius, so much so infact I have worries for what in Aphex Twins (Richard D. James') head! What I want you to day is post up some of your favorite and downright odd videos that you have come across in you time. I see it coming, so I may aswell get it out of the way, Aphex Twin!

"Come To Daddy", I'm sure we all know of that.

"Windowlicker", an iconic song with an iconic face.

The spectograph of "Equation" (aka "Mathematical Equation" or "The Formula"). Not really a music video, but the most odd thing I've ever seen. It's genius, who would ever think of doing it. Fast forward to 5:25 for it... if you didn't see it before, press play

There is something wrong with Aphex Twin, he must write down his nightmares. :eek:

buckfast4me

He (aphex twin) doesn't direct those videos afaik..

Nailz

No he doesn't, but it's his ideas... he shows what he wants and the director directs them.

rubadub

Chris Cunningham did. I have his collection. There are other directors in that series too.

I still get goosebumps watching come to daddy

This is a good one, he analyzes the songs perfectly so has the movements in perfect time with the beats.

Funny and disturbing
Basement Jaxx- wheres your head at

Kate Bush- Cloudbusting. yes that is Kate dressed as a boy, Peter, and it is Donald Sutherland playing her father fWilhelm Reich. Not visually shoccking, what is weird is what the song is about as shown in that link

strangely none of her music videos have been released on dvd, just some concerts & interviews

LFO - Tied Up

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXj4JcZli6U

The Prodigy - Smack My Bitch Up (well known video but weird none the less)

Think my vote for weirdest video would have to go to Aphex Twin for that Come To Daddy video, creep a ****!

What I find about this is it's always either Tool or electro stuff. I remember seeing some sick disturbing Death Metal video but I don't remember what it was, when I find it I will!

Jello

Daft Punk's 'Da Funk' - weird, but brilliant :

Another Aphex Twin one has seemed to catch my attention, it wasn't really ment as a music video, it was more like he made the music for this project by Chris Cunningham...

"Rubber Johnny"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l48HTZUHfeQ

I seen another one back when I was banned, for get what it is now. But if I see it I'll post it up straight away.

Nine Inch Nails - Happiness In Slavery. It's weird in a cutting off your own genitals and gaining pleasure out of it sense.

Oh yes I've just remembered that video I was on about... BTW sorry, I didn't spot Rubber Johnny before that!

Well here's the one I mentioned, it's wierd, definitly! There is so much colour in it, strobe lights & the effects annoys you and hurts your eyes at the same time;
