I want to watch more cool video clips. Instead of scouring YouTube for these videos myself, you can help me! What are your favorite video clips, and why?

It should be noted that I'm not really looking for cool songs that have a video clip, I'm looking for cool and creative clips.

Here's my list (in no particular order):

http://youtube.com/watch?v=ewc1hixzYPY - Madvillain - All Caps; my favorite video clip. In comic book style with minimalist animation.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=co3qMdkucM0 - The Pharcyde - Drop; This video is brilliant. Everything is recorded backwards.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=_ncSt5xC8Uk - J Dilla - Nothing Like This; very nicely made.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=ERQzl4xDpXk - A Tribe Called Quest - Electric Relaxation; while this clip is really nothing out of the ordinary, it's a very nice recording of New York.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=5Az_7U0-cK0 - Aphex Twin - Come To Daddy; I think there's probably no soul alive that hasn't seen this video but in case I'm wrong: go see this right now.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=BkPsYvOgTtI - Ultramagnetic MCs - Poppa Large; this video isn't even so great but it's everything you'd expect of Kool Keith and wins on curiosity value alone.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=jjXyqcx-mYY - Yes We Can (Barack Obama song); the idea of mixing Obama's speeches and song is really nice.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=hq2s0AhdFE4 - Beirut - Nantes; Live recording in Brooklyn, really nice idea for a video. Super low-key.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=tDaPjYPyyGU - Bob Dylan - Cold Irons Bound; Live recording in a studio. Again, I'm enticed by the idea of just people standing in front of a camera and playing a song, nothing more and nothing less.

EDIT: also you get BONUS POINTS if they're obscure or otherwise unknown things.

These are video clips, not songs like Dada encouraged to have posted. My reason being that I like to listen to music, not watch it.

Real-Life D&D: http://youtube.com/watch?v=kxnv8OLRP3A
This one isn't very obscure. In fact, I think a lot of people have seen it.. But man, watching this will remind you that you're not such a geek after all.

Bad Commercial Placement: http://youtube.com/watch?v=ATs1FrkA5pY
Only in America would they make a screw-up like this...

Titanic - The Sequel: http://youtube.com/watch?v=vD4OnHCRd_4
This one should be pretty well known. To those who have never seen it... This is some pretty clever editing.

Wake Up With The King: http://youtube.com/watch?v=UCSv4zNkFhw
Just for the sheer creepiness!

Big Bill's Hell: http://youtube.com/watch?v=RFW4-QswUg4
Best used car ad ever. EVER. EVER!!!!

Tough Martial Arts: http://youtube.com/watch?v=o4Vo1jsD9mg
Not sure where this came from, but it's fucking great.

World Record - Most T-Shirts Worn: http://youtube.com/watch?v=r6tlw-oPDBM
This is pretty epic. Seriously. Check it out.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AC8fgNzxt8 - Hilltop Hoods - Recapturing the Vibe (Restrung)

This rules. It's set up like a current affairs program, focusing on the issue of "swinging" - a (fictional) craze in which people go to parks at night, and use the swing sets. Watch it in full to see the part where the cops come, and all the cool Hoods posing. People may not like the song though, since it's Aussie hip-hop (p.s. you suck if you don't like it).

Hahaha, wow, this is probably the most far-fetched idea for a video clip I've ever seen.

Yeah, I might not have been entirely accurate in my first post, but I'm really looking for music video clips. "Most T-Shirts Worn" might be pretty interesting to watch but it doesn't exactly exhibit a lot of creativity.

I didn't read anything from the topic so if IM DOIN IT WRONG then my apologies.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sv5woNs9WRE - Home Shopping Blooper - This is pretty funny... pretty short too, so if you want a quick chuckle/laugh.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1u6jy_Qfw9I - Garry's Mod Club Dance Video - Pretty damn hilarious. Only really worth watching if you like Garry's Mod or any of the other Valve games that run on Source.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyAGZ41btx8 - Boom Goes the Dynamite - Sort of boring but at the same time so very awesome. Watch if you want to be entertained by a guy who should not be a news reporter.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkSZsNPO8xc - Final Fantasy In Garry's Mod - Under a minute... another entertaining one if you like Garry's Mod.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mx0fy-9NWFg - Cheers Beer - Epic beer commercials.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTQOpibv_OA - Vanilla Snow - Decent parody on Chocolate Rain. Worth a watch.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IHRRhUKaWes - Youtube Poop - Pretty damn funny but has volume spikes so careful not to have your speakers too loud. "Luigi, we gotta **** bowsa!" "And YOU need to **** spaghetti!"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PaZ4u-kY9yE - Hi There! I'm God! - Some really fucking creepy guy talking about shit. Depending on who you are, you may find this dumb/retarded or awesome. I laugh because he's so retarded looking.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMdPYya3IoA - Super Bingo - From the people who brought you Powerthirst, comes Super Bingo. Gets funnier with repeated watchings (I've had friends confirm this).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVuONhl_lAk - Mr Asthma - Very awesome (and obscure!). Liman (?) from GW made it. Show your friends, you'll have some laughs.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Msx3Jiz4ihM - WKUK Space Potatoes - Must-see skit by the Whitest Kids U Know.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKwj3efLxbc&feature=related - WKUK Classroom - Another must-see skit. This one's a bit longer but so very awesome.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkgMbU-we1o&feature=related - WKUK Slow Jerk - Yet another must-see skit. This one's short and hilarious. Enjoy.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEpbpoqgUdM&feature=related - WKUK Cubicle Boss - Maybe not a MUST SEE but still very hilarious.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3C1BSbq5aB0 - Most Difficult Super Mario Mod Ever - Pretty damn funny and has its moments. I don't recommend watching any of the other ones though (more of the same).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_w6i70ztZKY - Real Brother Relationship - Hot XXX! Megaman cartoon grinding action! Pretty funny.

That's a skit, but it's still a good song (I've got it on my iPod, so...). I really like it, so enjoy I guess!

Cobra Starship - The City is at War (song's not too hot but I absolutely love this video. Really off the wall idea.)

http://youtube.com/watch?v=nPBmXEO3yUU
Daft Punk - Around The World (not necessarily obscure but I still love Daft Punk and this video)

Thriller is still a classic!

That’s right, you have the young gaming with the old(er), white people gaming with black people, men and women, Asian countries gaming with the EU, North Americans gaming with South Americans. Much like world sporting events like the Wolrd Cup, or the Olympics will bring together different nations in friendly competition, (note the recent Asian Cup; Iraq vs. Saudi Arabia, no violence there) we come together. The differences being, we are not divided by our nationalities and we do it 24-7, and on a personal level.

We are a community without borders and without colours, the spirit and diversity of the gaming community is one that should be looked up to, a spirit and diversity other groups should strive toward.
