    I love both, but Daft Punk is my choice.

    That's another I just didn't get was Bat For Lashes. I don't understand the appeal.

    Final four for me...

    Thriller - MJ - the best music video ever made. It defines the art form. A perfect marriage of audio, video, and theme.
    Pictures of You - The Cure - probably more for nostalgia reasons.
    Da Funk - Daft Punk - I love the concept.
    Wrong - Depeche Mode - the best thing that's happened to music videos in ages.

    Fatboy Slim - "Weapon of Choice"

    Thanks to all who participated. Especially those who stuck with it through all the play-in rounds. Here is your Video of Choice.

    Yeah, I feel like I really fell out of step with Match Cut those last few rounds. Felt like I was on the opposite side of just about everything.

    Walken video is hilarious and elating, I am happy with it winning. I was also happy with the winner of the TV themes back when.

    I do think it's very, very good. It just probably wouldn't be in my top 30 or so.

    Yeah, it should be noted I don't hate it either. I just don't love it like so many here seem to.
