Yeasayer was always trying to go above and beyond with their music and storytelling. It still saddens me to be reminded they broke up.
I am Chemistry was peak for them, taking on a topic I never thought I'd see in music.
But it didn't stop there. The bizarre use of claymation to tell this story of theirs, in the music video cemented it as my favorite of all time.

Steven Wilson's Drive Home
Besides being a masterpiece, it also has a heart wrenching video clip that's very artistic
Nigel Stanford has some amazing videoclips. I love Robots vs. Music the most (especially since the tune and the whole Automatica album is amazing), but Science vs. Music is also great.
And he also did a few making of videos. While I'm sure most of the final result is CGI anyway, it's still a nice touch.
Ok go! Have aan archive of songs that I don't regularly listen to, but have really memorabele video clips. I likey them more for the videos than everything else.
Quite s nice niche,I think

A lot of people have mentioned OkGo already, so I'm going to mention New Lands by Justice's MV is a pretty fun one
Chevelle All Right I Get It
I was always fond of the video for by Cibo Matto. Didn't necessarily care for the song, but the video was directed by Michel Gondry.
First few times I heard the song, it was just on in the background and I wasn't paying much attention to the lyrics. Like... okay, we're watching you perform on a stage? Weird thing to write a song about, but whatev; sounds cool so screw it.
Finally pulled up the video and it went from "lol marionette puppets!" to "Oh... OOOH. Hoooooly shit!" pretty damn quick.
Now it gives me shivers every time it comes on.
