We Don't Want to Know: The ILM All-Time Video Poll (discussion, etc.; deadline is Monday, March 14)

Bjork - Hyperballad
Wednesday Campanella - Matsuo Basho

here are maybe the two best music videos of the hyperpop age. well, two OF. idk lol

Gupi ft Fraxiom - Thos Moser
Oneohtrix Point Never - Sticky Drama

sorry that's Gupi & Fraxiom even, soz

Yes voodoo chili! How could I forget Tell Me When To Go /facepalm

For 90's style this can't be touched.

Nas - One Mic

(Although it's also worth mentioning Notorious BIG - One More Chance)

The Golden Palominos - Boy (Go)

There was a video by a British rapper someone showed me, like very conscious rap, it could have been up to ten years old...ring any bells?

have a third

death's dynamic shroud.wmv - Rare Emoji Collection

viborg is probably thinking of Ill Manors lol ffs

Sorry fuck

Flying Lotus - Never Catch Me ft. Kendrick Lamar

Bonzo Doo-Dah Dog Band - Hunting Tigers

X - Because I Do

Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin - 69 année érotique

Echo and the Bunnymen - Seven Seas

Lana Del Rey - Ride

Talk Talk - My Foolish Friend

Just watched that Lana Del Rey video again - I noticed that the name of The Smithereens also appeared on the marquee with her name on it. That could be a nod to the quote from their song "Alone At Midnight" in the song's chorus.

Viborg: sorry, out to a movie--thanks, that's fine. I'll send you board e-mail with a Google mail address--add me as an editor, and I'll try when I can to add songs.

(Thread title seemed to beg for it.)

Glad someone got the reference!

Ok Go: Here It Goes Again
Tool: Sober
Tool: prison sex
Radiohead: Paranoid Android

I'll probably end up stuffing ballot with Michael Gondry directed videos anyway.

IAM - Je Danse le Mia

Peter Gabriel: Digging In The Dirt

Two Toronto classics:

Martha and the Muffins - Danseparc
Spookey Ruben - These Days Are Old

I thought the thread title was a "TV Party" reference lol.

Whoops didn’t see the other deee-lite nom

Roots Manuva - Witness (1 Hope) - Maybe the only rap video that's actually funny and also features a British primary school sports day

www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tm_WPPmleMw

Alter Ego - Betty Ford - maybe the only techno video that's actually good

Goddamnit that doesn't work. I'm going to post them in here because everyone else is

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

How do you post links to videos? I took the http:// out but the ones I tried above didn't work :(

A few which need to be on the noms list.

Air - All I Need
Air - Kelly Watch The Stars
Avalanches - Frontier Psychiatris
Avalanches - Since I Left You
Blink 182 - All The Small Things
Fatboy Slim - Praise You
Fatboy Slim -Weapon of Choice
Human League - La Nuit Americaine Don’t You Want Me
KLF - America (What Time Is Love?)
Lucas - Lucas With The Lid Off
Massive Attack - Protection
Kylie Minogue - Come Into My World
Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls
Pet Shop Boys - Being Boring
The Pharcyde -Drop
Portishead - Only You
Chris Rea -Auberge

How do you post links to videos? I took the http:// out but the ones I tried above didn't work :(

It seemed to work...the first post you put up, I don't get the embeds, just the addresses.

Kenneth Anger - Kustom Kar Kommandos (= The Paris Sisters - Dream Lover)

There are a bunch of great should-have-been-videos in Anger's work, especially Scorpio Rising and Rabbit Moon. No problem if you want to vote for them, but for me that's something qualitatively different. As you can probably guess from my posting around here, my ballot would be 95% film sequences if I included those.

Oh god, oh shit, I almost missed this thread, not sure how. I'm guessing Soundies are good for this?

perhaps a useful reference:
