Music videos done in animation

[apsham]

So I was watching the video that Matthew Good had made for his song "While We Were Hunting Rabbits" and I started thinking about the few videos that I had seen done in animation, but couldn't really think of that many. List some here if you will, so perhaps I can check them out, and please none of that bullshit that fans of Yu-Gi-Oh or some show like that make of the characters set to some song, ones actually comissioned to be made with original animation.

Here's the video for While We Were Hunting Rabbits, awesome:

[Skummy]

The obvious one that springs to mind would be Radiohead's video for "Paranoid Android". Evan Dando had one too, I think it was for "Stop My Head".

[TMM]

Linkin Park's Breaking The Habit is the only one that comes to mind...well, unless you wanna count Peter Gabriel's Sledgehammer, which you could count if you weren't to picky.

[Fitzy]

"Take On Me" by A-Ha?

[tristy]

All of Tool's videos.

Only by Nine Inch Nails. Maybe?

[NobBe Nobbs]

"Take On Me" by A-Ha?

[RPS]

Do The Evolution by Pearl Jam... if I recall correctly.

Do The Evolution by Pearl Jam... if I recall correctly.

You would be correct, as Todd McFarlane helmed that video.

Tristy, there's one small exception to Tool's videos being animated. "Crawl Away" featured actual people.

Other suggestions, as these were all videos I enjoyed as I grew up:

Alice In Chains - I Stay Away (technically it's claymation, but if we're including "Sledgehammer" and its dancing chickens, then why not this fine piece of cinematic ass?)

Dire Straits - Money For Nothing (and, subsequently, Weird Al Yankovic's "Beverly Hillbillies" video from UHF.)

Oasis - All Around The World

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Love Rollercoaster

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers - Running Down A Dream

In terms of all those gay fan videos that people with YuGiOh and shit...

...you do realize that the While We Were Hunting Rabbits video was made by fans, and Matt had nothing to do with it, right?

The only one that really blew me away was Do The Evolution. this video for Radiohead's Pyramid Song is unoffical I believe, and it's computer animated as opposed to traditional animation, but it's awesome none the less.

Does Green Jello/Jelly's video of Little Pigs count? It was clay animation, and a fucking awesome video.

[Bob Roberts]

2Pac - Do For Love

[Scott McFly]

Anything by Gorillaz would count I suppose.

Keane - Bedshaped was done in clay-mation or whatever it's called.

[Bushmeister]

Daft Punk has several, "One More Time" and some other song as well. Can't remember.

I am fully aware of that, but it's fully original materil and approved by Matt himself, not clips from a television show that imply homosexuality while "Move Along" plays in the background.

[Colly]

Year of the Rat - Badly Drawn Boy

Sheffield Song - Supernaturals

Something by the Magic Numbers...

Erm...

Coffee and TV by Blur I suppose.

[fineintent]

Sikth - How May I Help You?

Bloc Party - The Pioneers

Roll Deep - The Avenue

[Scott McFly]

Fatman Scoop - (can't remember the name of it )

[Dan]

Be faithful isn't it?

[Hobo]

Sledgehammer by Peter Gabriel.

I seem to remember a Madonna video that was animated too.

Eminem White America / Mosh / Shake That
