Plan B, "Double Crossin Little Rat!" directed by Patrick Volve
Seattle artist Plan B, aka James van Leuven, and Parisian video-maker Patrick Volve teamed up to make "Double Crossin Little Rat!" In the music video multiple cloned copies of artist/musician/dancer James van Leuven make up the entire work staff, boss and revolutionary leader in an “unknown” factory somewhere in the world. The result is a simple, humorous and tasteful statement about since the beginning of the mechanical revolution the people of our society are cheaply coerced and pacified by sex and money. “Double Crossin Little Rat!” appears on Plan B’s 3rd release “I’m The Captain, Where We Going?” due out early 2006 by the french label Ggoo22.

Not essentially a "music video" but it's brilliant video, and brilliant music, i'm sure you'll agree.
And for anybody who thinks "colour" is spelt wrong, there are places outside the U.S!
if that doesn't work....

Franz Ferdinand, "Walk Away" Dir: Scott Lyon
Franz goes into the 40s! Or 50s! Or something! A lot more serious than all their other videos. Windows media format only.
Go-Go's "Our Lips are Sealed (Remix)" Olivier Gondry
There's an elaborate story behind this.
www.nordstromsilverscreen.com/gogoVideo.html
Shortened: Nordstrom had Fatboy Slim remix the song, Olivier Gondry remix the video for their first in a series of video remixes. Nordstrom Silverscreen is a downloadable program. The Go-Go's video remix included is both HD-quality and clickable - you like that outfit? Click on it! The link above has the 'basic video', no clicking, not-great quality.
I think they hired Twist because he can do special effects like this, none of which come across well in this version.

One Take Videos - the definitive list
The folks at Alex's mv mailing list helped compile a rather-comprehensive list (after the jump) of all one-take videos ever made, including faux one-takers like the Spice Girls' "Wannabe". Can you think of any others?
A continuously updated list is here.
UPDATE: ftfy.

MGMT - "Boogie Down" (dir. Max Goldblatt)
MGMT, a force born in infancy and cultivated in ass-bruising beats and synth-heavy vaguely threatening pop, mounts a war against the hipsters of Williamsburg. Awesome guitar solo, breakdancing, boogie, blood.
Norah Jones "those sweet words" dir: David Lachapelle
Okay, Norah Jones and David Lachapelle doesn't promise a groundbreaking clip -but give it chance, it's a good one.

Devendra Banhart - Heard Somebody Say
From boardsmag.com: "Simon Henwood directs a curious clip for the equally curious Devendra Banhart."
Devendra Banhart - Heard Somebody Say.mov
Second video and single from the album Cripple Crow. And, yes, that is UK Mercury Music winner Antony cloaked in white in the video.
If I remember correctly, Devendra is soon going into the studio to record with Michael Gira of the Swans and Angels of Light fame. Should be interesting. Keep on the lookout.
