Artists and bands who had incredible music videos

Jeremy is a real classic, and one of the best combination of music and a very thoughtful and as you said, powerful music video, to make it ever stronger.
Sadly, there are still many "loose cannons" out there, and where too often teachers, parents, and fellow students know far too well, is having a daily nightmare at school, but just tries to "ignore" it and live as usual.

Tragically, some of those who is left behind, ends up taking extreme measures in trying to "reach out", but only makes it far worse by doing so.

Another song/music video, (maybe not as good as the one by Pearl Jam) but the message is all too clear, and I think it is one of the better made videos and songs of the early 00s, and instead of just having Kelly Rowland strutting her stuff in some "typical" sexy video, she goes out and delivers something like this:

Stole (2003)

Back in the the early 00s, as a norwegian teenager, it was almost impossible to avoid the whole "hype-train" surrounding Röyksopp, and it seemed like everyone I knew had their album Melody AM (2001) in their collection. I really tried to dig it, but several of the stuff, just did not hit of well with me, some were just incredible annoying, and the big hits, okay, Poor Leno and Remind Me came with some fine music videos, but this was a band people began thinking would become the biggest thing since a-ha back in the 80s.

Sure, they probably sold a million copies or more, even won some EMAs in 2002, also performed. 
I decided to give it another shot, some while later on. 
Thankfully it was a better way around, as tracks such as the brilliant Sparks and the Pink Floyidish She's So somehow must have slipped my mind completely, the first few times. 

Still, I never really got to close with them, but I have of course taken noticed that they have a talent of combining great music with very memorable and artistic music videos, where What Else Is There? sums it up perfectly.

Another huge nordic favorite of mine, is by Frost and their haunting Sleepwalker, where I think the footage in the music video is taken from many hours of filming back in the early 60s, from Svalbard (Norway). It all makes for a somewhat "nostalgic" feel to it all, and the music is just so soothing and calming.

The Connells - '74-'75 (1995)

Mostly known as one of countless "one-hit-wonders" from the mid 90s, but still both the song and video goes on almost daily, so that one sure has hit hard with radio and tv stations.
The video, is really something special, as it is a bit of a sweet, nostalgic feel-good "photo-book" journey, of before and after for a bunch of former college students. But the more I watch it, along with the music, it is also kind of sad, not in a depressing way, but still some of the faces in the video, they look so "defeated", while others look like they have not changed one bit, and are still just one big happy smile.

I guess that is just life, and why it "hits" so much harder than just another typical teen babe pop-star shaking her ass, or another rapper bragging about his money, all while standing infront of some billionare mansion.

That was a very fine choice, someguy, thanks for posting it. I have seen it before, but it is at least 10 years or more (if I am not cofusing it with another one) but I highly doubt that, because it is truly original and very impressive. Hm, next time I stop by the local gym, maybe I should try and get some other of the members to try out some dance moves, on those treadmills, however I think it might end up rather badly, though, maybe even a trip to the hospital for some.

I enjoy those kind of "random" music videos, and there used to be several of them on MTV back in the day, sadly I rarely remember either the artists or their music, but the videos was quite something "else", that is for sure.

That is one which somehow completely slipped me by, which is kind of "shameful", since I am norwegian, and they are like, well a national "treasure" for so many, but still, they really where one of those bands who often, even several years, even decades afterwards, would go on and continue delivering very good and interesting music videos, even though they never reached the same heights of popularity or rotation as their earlier 80s output.
