The 20 Best Music Videos of 2008

News




10. Devendra Banhart, "Carmensita"
They don't have each other anymore, but Devendra and Natalie Portman will always have this comical tribute to badly translated early Bollywood films. [Directed by: Skinny]


9. Beyonce, "Single Ladies"
It's ok to rip off Fosse. Everybody rips off Fosse. You know why? Because nothing in the whole world is sassier. [Directed by: Jake Nava]


8. Le Le, "Breakfast"
This animation by Piet Parra -- a member of Le Le himself -- balances lascivious and absurdly literal imagery in a way that, like the song, makes me both sort of uncomfortable and totally amused. [Parra]


7. The Chemical Brothers, "Midnight Madness"
The best thing about this glittery goblin parkour breakdance (just watch it) is knowing that parts of it can't possibly be real, but not always knowing which parts those are. [Directed by: Dom & Nic]


6. MGMT, "Time To Pretend"
Since drugs are such an essential part of the history and myth of MGMT, it's only right that their video be an unambiguous and visually astonishing ode to figuring out life problems by getting some friends around a bonfire and dropping acid. [Directed by: Ray Tintori]

"Sometimes really brutal imagery is necessary to express pure rage at unforgivable social injustices."

The director would know all about that.
