Ok lads, now before y'all go jumping down my throat with "we already have this topic" "please refer to this thread" etc..please note i'm too lazy to check when this was last brought up.



So anyway, as a matter of interest, regardless of whether or not you like the particluar tune..



What is your favourite Chemical Brothers Video and What is your least favourite and why?

I should really have answered that myself....doh!! :-//



Favourite:



The Golden Path..it's bright and sunny. It's a feel good video and I'm absolutely totally in love with the girl in it. She's hot! The part with th eguy snogging the donut is class aswell.



Least Favourite:



Block Rockin Beats..it's just boring and average and the fact that Billy from Eastenders is in it is just wrong. Totally puts me off

top: leave home

least top: galvanize



and please read this forum more carefully or use the search function blablabla

"and please read this forum more carefully or use the search function blablabla"



please read forum more carefully why???????????????????????



because what exactly is going to happen if a similar topic is posted twice? hmmmm????



stop being so anal

I think he was being sarcastic , Chemical Sister.

Anyway....am i totally missing something or did i just didnt pay attention...i never saw a video of leave Home ..in fact , i didnt even know it had a video ?! Hmz 8O Forgive my stupidness but..i am confused.

About the video's...shit that's a hard one.



Less favorite : Block Rocking Beats. I think with a different video they could have got more out of the song. I dont dislike it at all , but it doesn't keep my glued to my telly ( if that's how the experesion goes haha )

favorite : ...Shit , hard one. I also really dig the Golden Path video , it gives me such a good feeling..i also LOVE Life is Sweet , just because of the fact Tom and Ed are still so young in this video and it's fun to look back at...but i think my favorite is The Test. It's , it's like a trip u know. And when the house falls down and she is in the openwindow u know , it just fits the music so well...plus , i have great memories of this video haha..Last time in Japan me and my friend were SO DRUNK and got so into The Test video that we watched it like 10 times in a row hahaha. That was funny.

Favorite: The Test - I think the imagery is wicked cool, and it works so well with the song - I was blown away when I first saw it and when I watch this video today I still can't take my eyes off it. It's a gorgeous thing to watch, very hypnotic and a bit creepy at the same time. Watching what happens in this video is like taking a peek into someone else's subconsciousness. I like the tripped out girl, how her mind transports her from one place to another. Plus I dig the jellyfish. ;)



Least Favorite: Galvanize - I really dig this tune without a doubt. I like the form of dancing used in the video as well. I can't really put my finger (no pun intended) on what it is about this video that doesn't do it for me. It's not a terrible video by any means, it's stark black and white imagery really burn into the mind. It's just not my favorite.

FV: Get Yourself High



Brilliant, cutting up a kung-fu movie and make the vocals fit the actors. Had me in stitches!



LFV: Elektrobank



Although Spike Jonze is a gifted video director (he did the brilliant Weezer and Fatboy videos) I dunno what was up with him when he shot this video. Maybe a writer's block? It's quite boring...

top: leave home

Leave Home?? Come on Boy, that must be a mistake. Or you did one yourself :D



Favourite: The Test or Setting Sun Nah the Test will win that one. I love the psychedelic feel of it. Very trippy. Setting sun has loads of energy.



Least favourite: Get yourself high although it's fun. And it could be well done, it isn't well done imo.

Favourite would be Let Forever Be. The Test is close, but I love the Let Forever Be video, pure class. Image trickery at it's best.



Least fave - tough one as I haven't seen a few videos more than once (Life is Sweet, Setting Sun, Elektrobank). I'd probably go with Galvanize, as it seems to lack that cool factor. It's just some chavs walking round with clown (seems to be a recurring recent theme) face paint on.



Slight change of subject - what does everyone think of the Out of Control video?

DELETED

i think that the girl in the video is bangin!!!!that's about it for out of control oh and also ..."give me some substance" in the end.neat.

Shameless pro hooligan vid!

Yup, those are my choices and the comments about sum it up. 'Setting Sun' and 'Star Guitar' are great, also.



Though 'Life is Sweet' has a cool indie vibe to it, it also is among their weakest videos. 'Block Rockin' Beats' LOOKS like a cool video b/c of Dom & Nic's typical cinematography but is a pretty boring video overall.

Top; ii love the Star Guitar vid, first time i saw it i was glued to the tv, so it's either that or Let Forever Be vid. Let Forever Be reminds me of my first salvia trip

Least top; Elektrobank, simply cause i think it's kinna boaring

Fave: Probably "the Golden Path." Wholesome goodness that is. Though I also dig the "Star Guitar" video based on sheer coolness of concept...



Least Fave: Any of the numerous Dom'n'Nic videos with an "obligatory rave scene." Puh-lease, can't we have an electronic music video without an obligatory rave scene? I mean, the video for "the Test" was going so beautifully until the obligatory rave scene. And the dancing skeletons in HBHG? Yech...



Overall, I say Vegetable Vision should produce a Chems video. Why not? they already do the concert visuals, which really are unparalleled, no?

If I'm not mistaken, the guy who directed the Galvanize video is the head of Vegetable Vision.... we all know how that turned out.....

I just saw the clip to Believe and let me tell you... i was VERY impressed. That guy is a wicked actor hey, [Human Traffic: "Thaaats Paranoia...Mmmmmm!!!!]



I love all the chemical brothers clips, i dont think theres one i had to grind my teeth to sit through, and as for the elektrobank clip... don't tell me its not all worth it to see the photo of tom and ed dressed as basketball players at the end. The first time i saw it i laughed so hard i had to pause it and just stare until it sunk in. So very out of place in sports shorts, so very entertaining. And Tom still wears his yellies. Beeeautiful.



As for my least favourite... gee that would be a bit of a toughie i think, maybe galvanize... or maybe get yourself high simply because its not on the DVD and that angers me.



Hey heres another topic: What's your favourite scene from a chemical brothers film clip?



Mines DEFINATELY the basketball photo. If anyone owns a copy of it i'd love one. I'll pay big bucks too![/i]

Favorite scene from a Chemical Brothers clip? There's so many!



Hmmm. First thing that comes to mind... The way those jellyfish pulse and light up to the beat of the music in the Test video. I also like when the girl waves her arm through the air, and her hand turns into smoke. Verrrry trippy.



And Chi, you want one of those Tom and Ed basketball pictures, and I want one of those Golden Path Employee of the Month ones - there's at least a dozen, I'm sure there's got to be a couple floating around to spare!

fav scene: the sunrise on the beach with the birds flying by in the Test video. Together with the music an incredible powerfull scene

My top 6:



01 Star Guitar

02 Get Yourself High

03 The Test

04 Golden Path

05 Hey Boy Hey Girl

06 Elektrobank



:D
