MTV without the commercials, grating VJ's, or duds
Back in February, I had the rare treat of watching a collection of music videos on the big screen with 
megastoat and a few LJ-less friends. The event was hosted by the MFA and featured twenty videos selected from the best of those shown at the Edinburgh Film Festival over the past ten years. The full list, with links to where you can find them online:
"Sugar Water", Cibo Matto
"Say It Ain't So", Weezer
"Nouveau Western", MC Solaar
"California", Wax
"Biting Tongues", Faultline
"Coffee & TV", Blur
"All I Need", Air
"Pyramid Song", Radiohead (online video arguably too small to be worth it)
"Rabbit in Your Headlights", U.N.K.L.E. (disturbing)
"Eye for an Eye", U.N.K.L.E. (disturbing in an entirely different way)
"From Your Mouth", God Lives Underwater
"Out of Sight", Babybird (sorry--haven''t found a free place to view this one)
"Fell in Love with a Girl", The White Stripes
"I Changed My Mind", Quannum
"Hitchcock", Phoenix Foundation
"Days Go By", Dirty Vegas
"We Don't Care", Audio Bullys
"Hurt", Johnny Cash
"Assassinator 13", Chikinki (almost but not quite work-safe)
"Bastardo", Charlotte Hatherley
Some suffer more than others when viewed online, but if you've got a broadband connection and the standard media players, most of these should be easy to watch. A few require free registration.
