Happy Friday, denizens of the web! We know we’ve had a Music Video roundup before, but now is as good time as any to face the music — again!
Plug in, turn it up and jam out. This will be the last YouTube Roundup of this kind (Mashable copy editor Brian Hernandez will be taking over next week) as today is my very last day at Mashable. Happy weekend all, and see you on the other side!
Pearl Jam, "Jeremy"
Josh Catone: When I think "music video," this is what pops into my head. (Sometimes it's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" that I think of, but I'm never 100% sure if I am remembering the Nirvana version, or Weird Al's...)
Pavement, "Cut your hair"
Todd Wasserman: Proof that Pavement should have made a movie.
Blind Melon, "No Rain"
Jay Bischof: Who’s going to be the first to break the '90s rock theme? Not me.
Dan Black, "Symphonies ft. Kid Cudi"
Brian Hernandez: This was my favorite video of 2010. Why? So much TYPOGRAPHY!
Art Of Noise, "Moments In Love"
Jennifer Diamond: Taking it back to the 80s with Art of Noise.
Rick Astley, "Never Gonna Give You Up"
Stephanie Haberman: To the Mashable community, with love.
Busta Rhymes, "Woo Hah!! (Got You All in Check)"
Todd Olmstead: Hype Williams and Busta Rhymes were an epic combination.
Aerosmith, "Crazy"
Stacy Green: Aerosmith, "Crazy." No further comment.
Lykke Li, "I Follow Rivers"
Stephanie Buck: There's always room for an uncomfortably haunting video from Lykke Li.
"Total Eclipse of the Heart: Literal Video Version"
Meghan Peters: Also taking it back to the '80s -- literally.
Fiona Apple, "Criminal"
Christina Warren: Mark Romanek is probably my favorite music video director of all time, and although I think "Hurt" by Johnny Cash is probably his best work, I decided to take it back a bit to one of my other favorite videos, "Criminal" by Fiona Apple. Even without the context of the Calvin Klein campaign (which influenced the editorial style of this video), the video/song still hold up 14 years later.
Missy Elliott, "The Rain"
Chelsea Stark: Piggybacking on the '90s... I always loved this video..
Avril Lavigne, "Complicated"
Zachary Sniderman: Once dead-panned this chorus to a high-school history teacher. No joke.
Twisted Sister, "We're Not Gonna Take It"
Robyn Peterson: The worst and best (simultaneously) music video ever made. Embarrassing confession: I just taught my three-year-old girls to sing this song.
Broken Bells, "The Ghost Inside"
Chris Taylor: Broken Bells. Asteroids. Christina Hendricks. Need I say more?
Korn, "Freak On A Leash"
Ada Ospina: "Take On Me" (A-ha) was backup option.
NewVillager, "LightHouse"
Brenna Ehrlich: Rad song. Weird as hell video. NSFW: Theatrical sex.
