Max Pezzali e 883 [Fai come ti pare]
Everything is good in its season. But this Italian group 883 made a well imitated presidential election campaign for music video lately.

Maybe this takes a few steps forward from last year's REM vid.

Bjork - "Triumph of a Heart"
The video is directed by long time Björk collaborator Spike Jonze and was shot on location in Iceland.

Bjork: "It's In Our Hands" Dir. Spike Jonze
"Night vision film never looked so beautiful. That's due in part to the endearing coyness of Icelandic songstress Björk, but it's Spike Jonze's fluid transitions and light touch that makes this video special. A harsh spotlight brings Björk from the darkness as she flits in and out of the light, the softness of the arborous environment intensifying the stark lighting and coloring. The effect is both creepy and arresting."
Samba - Aus den Kolonien
Music video or rather a short film with music ?! Music comes from German band Samba, it stars actor Robert Stadlober & musician Erobique (of International Pony fame). No Budget! (file is 35 mb big) www.samba-pop.de
Two great Dr. Strangelove-esque music videos
These are two really fantastic videos reminiscent of the theme/style/subject matter of Kubrick's masterpiece Dr. Strangelove (great movie by the way).
MUSE - TIME IS RUNNING OUT
The second best out of the two and the most blatantly Strangelove. Gets a little repetitive, but packs a punch.

AIR - SURFING ON A ROCKET
Fantastic absurd and satirical video. I haven't heard of the director, but I hope he makes more.

Pretty Sweet
I thought this video was neat, its based on a word association game. www.boardsmag.com
Looking for a Billy Bragg video
I've been looking for Billy Bragg's "Levi Stubbs' Tears" video. It is great but seems out of circulation.
Postal Service - We Will Become Silhouettes
The latest video from fun pop side project The Postal Service. After dedicating a small tour to the real US Postal Service to solve some legal issues concerning their namesake, they have finally managed to free up enough time to work under the unique direction of Jared Hess, director of the film Napoleon Dynamite. While the brilliant Jon Heder (Napoleon himself) does not make an appearance, the video continues the same retro-yet-timeless aesthetics of the movie. See for yourself.
Underground Music in Indonesia
I stumbled across a stash of music videos from Indonesia via sayap-imaji.blogspot.com. I know nothing about Indonesia or the music scene there but found the videos fascinating. My favorites are
Kornchonk Chaos
and

Nice transitions and cheesy audio.
His Name is Alive - "Are We Still Married?"
I saw this as part of a collection of short films by these guys called the Brothers Quay. They're supposedly a couple of the best stopmotion people out there, I didn't understand a lot of their work, but I'm pretty ignorant. This music video was my favorite thing on the collection, sorry this is the only copy I could find of it online, I should have looked harder.
