In message #500 of another thread, I mentioned that regardless of whether you like Nickelback’s “Savin’ Me” (and I do), it has one of the coolest videos I’ve ever seen for a 4-minute song:

It’s like a short episode of “Twilight Zone,” and it was in fact ripped off later, for an episode of “Medium.”

So what are your favorite music videos — ones that tell such a good story that you can watch them without the sound and still enjoy them?
