I thought of this idea earlier today when I saw Biz Markie's "Just A Friend" video... What's your favorite music video of all time?
I would rank "Just A Friend" along with Gomez's "Bring It On" and DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince's "Parents Just Don't Understand" within my top-10 all-time favorites.... What are yours?

They coated Vinnie Paul's china cymbal with gasoline and lit one of his drumsticks on fire. Then everytime he hit the cymbal it would have this quick bursting ring of fire. Badassed.
Dream Theater - "Take the Time"
During the guitar/keyboard duet the screen goes splitscreen with John Petrucci (guitar) on one side and Kevin Moore (keyboard) on the other.
Megadeth - "Sweating Bullets"
Very creative video and fairly high-budget for a metal band. Lots of overlayed shots and the multiple Mustaines on the screen at the end is a little weird and downright spooky. Their video for "Train of Consequences" was pretty badass too.
Tool - "Sober"
Need I say more? This video was incredible and way ahead of its time.
Metallica - "One"
It was always funny to see the MTV VeeJay's reaction after this video was played. They'd usually be silent for a few seconds, then say, "well, on a happier note..."
That was maybe the best dark and moody video of all time. The scenes from "Johnny get your gun" thrown in really hit hard with the music.
Without a doubt "Remember The Time" Michael Jackson

That is a direct link that contains Gomez's "Bring It On" video (it was actually released on their 2nd album "Liquid Skin", which is not to be confused with how they titled their 1st album "Bring It On") along with a few other earlier videos by them.... Their videos are worth checking-out since theyre either hilarious or just dramatic in some regards.....
Quite possibly one of the most unintentionally funny things of all time.
Had to bump this thread up to respond to this....
Oh....I thought that video was hysterical as well... I believe I was about 7 when that video first aired on MTV (I started getting into Journey's music when 1981's "Escape" album first came out), and I never saw them on TV until that...
Anyways, I immedately nicknamed them the "Armpit Brothers" because all they did in that video was constantly raise their arms (especially when they did that lame air-guitar or keyboard)..... Too bad MTV destroyed Journey though because Neil Schon was one highly underappreciated guitarist and John Cain was a solid keyboardist in his own right......
I would have to add the videos to Dire Straits "Money For Nothing", Genesis "Land of Confusion", Alice-In-Chains "I Stay Away", and NIN "Down In It".. All I'll mention for now.....
The single greatest music video ever is/was "California Girls" by David Lee Roth. It's a classic song, full of hot chicks, and Dave makes you laugh like only Dave can. It's an all-timer.
