Actually Sledgehammer came to mind first. "Take on me" was also awesome cutting edge creativity.
More recently I'm really diggin Ferdinand's "Take me out". It's very "sledgehammerish".
The Whitesnake vid (Here I go again) with Tawny Kitaen crawling all over the hood of the car finished up what had to be the nastiest, juiciest, sexiest video ever.
The child molester had a couple good vids along the way, too.
Hammer, "You can't touch this" was cool.
I really liked "Moulin Rouge", too. Good right hand material in there.

I still love big time sensuality the best though.

But she was fat in the sensuality video.

Every breath you take - Police
Fascination Street - The Cure
Blue Thunder - Galaxy 500
Jane Says (live) - Janes Addiction

I just love the ending to it.

Were you shocked to know the gender of the person at the end?
Gets my vote, who wasn't shocked at the end? I don't think there was 1 clue it was a girl until they show you.

the best music video ever is "New Millennium Cyanide Christ" by Meshuggah. It features the band in their tour bus, playing air guitar, air bass, air drums, and the singer screaming into a bic pen as a microphone. Simply hilarious.

Wow, no one mentioned Robbie Williams - Rock DJ?? Uncensored of course. Such an awesome, badass video.

My vote: Aha - Take on Me

Jeremy was good...

Breathe by Faith Hill just to watch her roll around on a bed...

Thriller was good, despite that fact that he's nuts...

November Rain was good

What it Feels like for a Girl by Madonna was pretty crazy

Bodyguard with Chevy Chase in it was good too

Great animated line with rotoscoping and lots of cool effects using a charcoal drawing.

I don't really like music videos for the most part, but there are two that stick in my head as the best videos ever...One has already been mentioned (Prodigy - SMBU) but the other is even better... Twiztid - We Don't Die.

I like Spike Jonze's music videos...Weapon of Choice and Buddy Holly were mentioned.

Jamiroquai's Virtual Insanity is another good one
