    What in your own opinion is the best scene in a Music Video?

    Mine has to be from:

    You Could Be Mine - Guns N' Roses, when the Terminator holding a shotgun, looking up at the theatre board with Guns N' Roses written across it.

    or from Hot For Teacher - Van Halen, when Eddie is walking along some school desks while playing a guitar solo.

    Hehe, memorable stuff...

    The end of november rain rain slash is soloing while standing on top of axls grand piano or the end of guerilla radio by rage against the machine.

    aphex twin- come to daddy- the bit with the big screamy monster head and the granny- classic!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,345 ✭✭✭Squall


    Have to agree with you on the november rain thing.
    Also saw a great spinal tap video, cant remember the song. Awwwww crap cant remember any of the bands names oh well

    it zooms in on one of them playing the guitar at the end of the video and he starts using the wammy bar only there is none *classic*

    the U.N.K.L.E. video with the messianic pose at the end is fairly memorable as is the fade to black sequence in Freedom 90.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,980 ✭✭✭✭Giblet


    The Spinal tap guitarist was Nigel Tuffnel :)
    A good scene is in the Rabbit in your headlights video, when the car crashes into him after he takes off his coat, and doesn't move him.

    bjork - army of me...

    theres a great scene in it where shes wrestling the gorrilla dentist.. and for two brief scenes (hard to spot without pause button) theres like 2 bjorks..
    plus she looks damn tasty in it imo :)
    directed by the absolutely brilliant michael gondry (who has also done one or two chemical brothers and radiohead videos)

    Radiohead "Just" best video ever...real Hitchcockian suspense


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,335 ✭✭✭Cake Fiend


    As Dustin and Giblet mentioned, the Rabbit in your headlights video is quite interesting.

    Also most Spike Jonze videos.

    I do quite like the ads section from the video of Orbital - Pay per View (one of the features of the Altogether 5.1 DVD) - Lip Techno 0wns j00

    Probably the The Unknown Soldier vid by the Doors..or Strawberry fields thats pretty trippy.The Unknown Soldier was banned for about 15 years,it contains scenes from Vietnam...but when this was played live..Robby Krieger would hold his guitar up imitating a shotgun...Whilst Jim Morrison puts his hands behind his back,as if he were tied up,the drummer(John Densmore)is doing his drum roll...and Ray Manzarek(Oragan/bass,left hand)
    stands up with his back to the audience,one arm up and the clenched fist just like(RATM battle of L.A.)then the gunshot,and morrison shoots to the stage floor!!!good live entertainment!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 146 ✭✭LUZ


    its not a music vid, well i suppose it could be, in the commitments, where Outspan ( glen H ) is getting changed into a suit...

    "wheres me knob? i knew i tucked it inte me sock"

    LOVE IT!!




    "and ,and, fucccing AND??" :D

    Areosmith - Crazy, where Liv Tyler is climbing out the classroom window and her little skirt gets caught on the window clasp.
    Magic moments...

    Wasn't that Alicia Silverstone who got caught in the window? Either way I'm getting a boner thinking of it.

    Could be actually,
    My Bad, either way.......... exactly!

    u sure thats aphex twin? I thought it was Leftfield


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,025 ✭✭✭yellum


    It is Leftfield. Afrika Shock is the vid.

    It is directed by Chrus Cunningham though that directed the more recent Aphex Twin vids.

    Nine Inch Nails 'Head like a Hole' - right at the end of the video when Trent is hoisted feet-first off the floor by all the video tape and is suspended in the air over the stage spinning around.
    Type O Negatives 'Everyone dies' where they are all being covered by dirt and gravel when the really eerie sad bit of the song is played.
    Frontline Assemblys 'Digital Tension Dementia' video, bit with the tank driving through the carpark, all very terminator styleeeee.
    Prodigys 'Smack my bitch up' where the chick in the video charges into the guys jacks and drags a guy out of one of the cubicles.
    Megadeths 'Bleeding Bullets' (I think thats what its called), Dave Mustaine sitting in a chair and lots of other hims start coming into the room around him doing different stuff and he's just staring at them.
    Lives 'Dolphins Cry' with all the dolphins coming out of the puddles in the alleyway and the big wave at the end....that one was really cool actually.
    Strapping Young Lads 'Detox', classic pi$$take metal video with the guys in the band only playing when the camera is on them....worth a giggle.
    Whales 'Hobo Humpin' Slobo Babe' vid, swedish chick with knickers akimbo and two nutters with guitarz rocking out big time. One of the best ever.

    There are so so many!!!!!!
