Songs vs. Music Videos

[Dingo Jellybean]

The title might be a bit deceiving, but it's a comparison of the actual songs vs. how you think the videos should be without actually seeing the video.

For instance, although I admire and love Vanessa Carlton's music...her videos stink. They make no sense, except for Ordinary Day. Her White Houses video was like "WTF?"

On the other hand, Eminem's videos are great. I personally love them, except for Mosh(even though I agree with its message). Mosh was just...eh. I love My Band, that video is so freaking hilarious...and Just Lose It. But videos like Stan and Lose Yourself are great videos IMO. They're exactly how I pictured them.

Bonnie McKee's somebody is good too, but it didn't move me as much as the song itself.

So yeah, talk about your thoughts on music videos here.

I think that video's can be quite deceiving, mostly because that most of the songs are radio-edited in the video's... so therefore you don't hear the entire song and that sucks.

Yeah...but all the songs that I like and seen are the full versions on CDs. Eminem's Stan video is over 8 minutes long.

Damn! why do I always miss the videos?

I stay tuned on VH1 all day and I never see the video's I'm waiting for

...MTV just plain sucks
