15 of the Many Music Videos I Have Fallen In Love With

In light of the recent release of what I believe is one of the best, if not the best music videos of all time in "We Found Love", I decided to compile a list of 15 of some of my all time favorite music videos.

1. We Found Love | Rihanna
Seen it dozens of times. Danced to it hundreds of times. Defining video of 2011 at Colorado College- that's for sure. So fucking badass. So fucking sick.


2. This Too Shall Pass | Ok Go
Still, just so fucking cool.


3. Work It | Missy Elliot
Can't not include this classic. Obviously one of the best videos of all time, just like the previous "Get Your Freak On". Both totally changed the world of music videos. Incredibly visionary and original.


4. Raise Your Glass | Pink
The best of the gay bullying responce videos. So badass. So cool.


5. Love | Kazaky
Both amusing and genius but mostly timeless and amazing dancing. My friends and I have been long obsessed.



6. One Day | Matisyahu
I have always loved this song and this video.



7. They Don't Care About Us | Michael Jackson
MJ at his best if you ask me. So great.


8. Where'd You Go | Fort Minor 
A very moving and well done video.


9. What's My Name | Rihanna &; Drake 
Unlike Jay Z & Alicia Keys, Rihanna and Drake's video showcases a flavor of the real New York.


10. Hold On | Good Charlotte 
Having dealt with sucidial friends and having lost those very close to me to suicide, I think this video is very genuine even if it comes from a "boy band". First saw it when I was 12 and still love it.

11. Rockstar | Nickelback 
A very fun and well-done video. Always loved it. Used to be my absolute favorite.


12. Bulletproof | La Roux
A very stylish and exciting video.


13. Never See You Again | Rihanna & Maroon 5
So well done. So stylish and sexy.



14. Hometown Glory | Adele 
Incredibly powerful and unique video. It is important that you pay attention, as you will see she not only includes her two homes of London and New York, but the World Trade Center . Adele lost a friend on 9/11 and has preformed in front of several 9/11 tribute ceremonies.



15. Bad Romance | Lady Gaga
Last but not least, the one and only. Most successful music video of all time.


[update] BONUS: ANOTHER REALLY GOOD VIDEO
