What are the strangest you've seen?

I just watched this really messed up one for the song "E-Pro" by Beck. Or is it for the song Beck by E-Pro.. I dunno, I feel stupid now :p

Spiders - System Of A Down

Quite a weird one, but I don't watch channel [V] that often, I download most of the film clips I've seen.

RoBert - "La prince Bleu" is pretty weird.

Mylene Farmer's - "Je t'aime melancholie" is weird too. Oh, and her video for the song "Que mon coeur lache" that's pretty weird. And "Sans contrefacon". Come to think of it most of her videos are pretty un-mainstream. Cool though :-)

Hmmm......I think that Aphex Twin tends to do pretty well on this sort of scale. Come to Daddy is great, and so is Window Licker.

The video to Rammstein's 'Sonne' is pretty good, if a little odd - it features the band as dwarfs mining gold dust for a junkie Snow White to snort / inject.

She overdoses whilst relaxing in the tub and they carry her off in a glass coffin, only for her to come round when an apple falls from a tree and smashes through the it.

Worth having a look on Google for.

Hmm. Tool videos are pretty warped. So are Rammsteins.

Daft Punk music tends to be accompanied by a weird video... but it does rule. Daft Punk kick ass.

Any videoclip by Tool is always not only weird, but really disturbing.

There are a few others I can remember that really weirded me out, but they're on late at night on rage, so I can't remember the artists. The titles were:
"I will eat your soul"
"I love Martin Scorcese"
"Jupiter Groove"

One of my all-time favourites would be U.N.K.L.E.'s "Rabbit in the Headlights", it stands as one of the most awesome I have ever seen, it's pretty bizzare too.

It's Beck. The song is E-Pro. It's not one of my favourites, I think his video for Sexx Laws is so much better. One of my all-time favourites would be U.N.K.L.E.'s "Rabbit in the Headlights", it stands as one of the most awesome I have ever seen, it's pretty bizzare too. I love that song! I love the way everything shatters at the end.

ANY Primus video

some of my favorite oddities by Primus include:

"Wynona's Big Brown Beaver"

"Southbound Pacyderm"

"Shake Hands with Beef"

though it's not strictly Primus, the video for the cover of "Devil Went Down to Georgia" is a work of genius.

Speaking of Bjork... check out the videos for her former band The Sugarcubes: "Motorcrash" and "Birthday". Odd videos...even by 80s standards.

Death in Vegas "Dirt" is a really messed up video. You'd have to see it to know, but the little ugly girl with the sheep is freaky. The transvestite Nazi with 6 arms just wasn't right.

Of the music videos I like, I'd say "Everlong" by the Foo Fighters is reasonably odd, but I think it is a fantastic idea and really fits in with the song. It's probably my favourite music video.

"I Adore You" and "Jolene" by Queen Adreena are pretty random videos. Most videos by Marilyn Manson are quite weird too ("Dope Hat" and "I Don't Like the Drugs...." spring to mind).

Also Reuben's "Stux" is odd.

I've never seen the video to that, but it's a great song.

How can anybody not love this song?

I've only seen the music video, but I've heard about that movie. Whispered portents of evil mostly. Still want to see it though.

Not exactly a music video, but if you check out Led Zeppelin's "The Song Remains The Same" DVD...

That's some crazy shit. Especially the part where the old man waves the stick and there's a cheesy 70's-style color trail.

I saw this one music video and it's driving me crazy cause I don't remember the song or the artist. I just remember it was done in a Tim Burton/Lemmony Snickets/Beetlegeuse kind of style with this little creepy lookin kid running around this old house looking for "him." Ring a bell for anyone?
