I agree with all your favourites, god damn! But there's one missing: Familjen's «Det snurrar i min skalle». Absolute masterpiece.
(yeh - it's in my tops.)
Shit I still can't get this out of my head. When it was live on the VMA's it was awkwardly mind-blowing. The combo of Kanye + Daft Punk + MTV + party suite + live + Las Vegas was just too much.
The cut at the end from Kanye raising his hand ("Is this what y'all been waitin' for?") to the building heli shot was brilliant despite its possible planned nature. On that day it looked like the building was vibrating Stonehenge-style.
Just had to say that.
