NEWS: Pitchfork's Top 50 of 2007

Fairly solid list.
i hopes y'ain't gon shoot yer load afore th'awards now, r ya, kev?
When is a good date?
The list seems more like… Songs we LOVE from bands you should KNOW That just happen to have a music video…
Jens Lekman is brilliant but the video is nothing. Radiohead’s ceremony cover was also nice, but wth?
agreed! pitchfork kinda missed the boat....
no bernard gourley videos?
i also loved the unholy trio, knight music, black moth super rainbow, and kanye's 'can't tell me nothin' clip
shoulda been a bigger, better list
Yeah I agree, i'm sure there was lots of "(insert band here) were amazing when I saw them in april, can we put them in the video list?"
The list has a naive feeling about it
k: p'haps along with next week's stocking stuffer...?
yea too into the list...
Uh I think you guys, are missing the point. Pitchfork is a music website, not a music video website. Of course they're going to post for the song rather than the video. Props for listing director names and using the Bat for Lashes screencap though.
Going to poke a few holes in your 'Pitchfork is a music website, not a music video website, therefore we should forgive the shitty mistakes they made' theory...
Forkast features new videos, either live concerts, fan videos, and official music videos each day. To say they don't pay attention to music videos is a goddamn lie.
The Pitchfork Staff actually believes that they know a thing or two about music videos. Don't believe me? Check out '100 Awesome Music Videos,' if you're feeling masochistic.
Pitchfork touts themselves as knowledgeable list-makers -- and not just of 'Underrated Albums of the 80s and 90s.'
There's no need to chastise us for going after Pitchfork. Their self-serving bias sickens me. In the meantime, someone explain to me why the following videos are on the Top 50 Music Videos of 2007:
Prinzhorn Dance School's 'Crackjack Docker' Kevin Drew's 'Backed Out on the...' Dan Deacon's 'The Crystal Cat' El-P 'Smithereens (Stop Crying)' Jens Lekman 'A Little Lost' Radiohead 'Ceremony' Dude 'N Nem 'Watch My Feet'
"Prinzhorn Dance School's 'Crackjack Docker'"
Because it's really fucking good.
bat for lashes and grizzly bear videos are both amazing and great songs
