In no particular order:

Best original concept. This one is my favorite.
Blindside - When I Remember

Best performance video. Great for people with ADD.
Showbread - Mouth Like a Magazine

Best ending. Don't care for part 2 very much.
Project 86 - The Spy Hunter

First love. Don't care too much for their latest video.
Switchfoot - New Way to Be Human

Interesting story on a low budget. The zooms really bother me.
mewithoutYou - Bullet to Binary

Good job at not being too serious. Creative too.
He Is Legend - The Seduction

Favorite animated. 8bit Remix of Beck's Hell Yes. Like the animated version more than the robot version.
Beck - Ghettochip Malfunction

Like this idea a lot. Surprised more people haven't done this.
Cold War Kids - Hang Me Out to Dry

Music video before the term "music video" was used. From 1965.
Bob Dylan - Subterranean Homesick Blues

Sigur Ros - Glosoli
So freaking good.  Visually stunning.  This video made me fall in love with the Ros
This actually has better resolutions etc.

Kanye West - Stronger
I kinda like the song.  More importantly I like the complete rip off of the anime classic Akira

St. Vincent - Jesus Saves, I Spend
Brilliant song. Brilliant video. The custom boy scout badges are hilarious! After watching this video, I want to buy this band's album.

Recent favorite:  Love Song by Sara Bareilles

I had heard this song many times after getting it as a free download from iTunes last summer, & I liked it a lot.  I thought that it was about a guy-girl relationship because that's what the lyrics seemed to mean, but then I was made aware that the song was Bareilles' response to her record company when they asked her to write a love song for her album.  The song has a completely different meaning when I listen to it with that in mind.  The video is very creative in getting across her point, as the girl feels like she's trapped inside the box, having to play songs for people whenever she's told to do so.  Who knew something so sarcastic could become so popular?

I heard that song in a commercial and really liked it.  I like it even more now that I know what it's about.
