Strangest Music Videos

[El Héroe Oscuro]

What are some of the most strange music videos you have ever seen?

My brother just showed me this music video for Babyhead by Diarrhea Planet. The song is actually pretty good but...if you watch the music video, the band edits their heads on all of these different people and comes out pretty funny.

Some of the strangest music videos I've seen are the one for The Flood by Katie Melua:



And the one for Elephant gun by Beirut:



Both are great songs with weird music videos. You should definitely watch/listen to them.

You're a Beirut fan too?! <3 Such a great band

I almost forgot about the King Rat by Modest Mouse music video. The music video is actually really deep in meaning, but the first time you watch it you can't help but ask yourself "wtf did I just watch?"

Yes, I love Beirut! <3 Also, Modest Mouse is a great band. King Rat is one of my favorite videos ever. I agree, the first time you watch it it may be really disturbing.

I love Kids. I like electric feel by MGMT a lot too.

Shout outs for strange music videos go to Animal Collective as well.

The strangest music video I've ever watched was one I just saw this morning. The title, lyrics, and video are all highly offensive so I can't even discuss them!

I don't watch enough music videos, but one that immediately comes to mind is My Head Explodes by Ty Segall.

Too lazy to go get the video right now, but the music video for Land Of Confusion - Genesis creeped me out, way too much.

Phil Collins puppet! :D

Pretty much any music video from the 80's can be considered strange. When I read the topic, Yello's "Oh Yeah" music video came to mind. Trippy green-screen backgrounds, mustachio'd men, and a kid throwing rocks make up the video. But I guess there's only so much you can do with a song that only has the words "Oh yeah," "beautiful," "sun," and "moon" to it.

Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer" video was apparently a technological marvel when it was made. It's stop-motion and downright crazy. There's a Peter Gabriel made of fruit, a man walking around made of sledgehammers, and two dancing rotisserie chickens. The whole thing is crazy.

Looking at other Peter Gabriel music videos, a lot of them of downright crazy. And possible nightmare fuel.

I can't believe I almost forgot about this gem! MGMT's "Your Life Is A Lie" was probably one of the biggest troll videos I've ever seen. It's really out there, and I think it actually angered a lot of fans when it initially came out xD Here's the video y'all:

Definitely Korn's song Right Now. Probably the most disturbing music video I've ever seen, I was watching it and thinking wth?

I won't post it, since it is a bit adult, but the music video of "slap my birch up" is pretty strange. It's a first person view of a person slapping or fighting people, doing drugs, and drinking.

 

[Sonata]

I think I shared this somewhere else, but this is one of the most messed up videos I've ever seen.

Caution! Disturbing imagery.

I can think of TONS of them. However, the one that really comes to mind is this one:



I mean, I love this song. Don't get me wrong, but the video is just... idek.
