And Shiny Happy People has a very pretty Kate Pierson dancing around.

And I’ll remind folks here, too, that NSFW links are allowed as long as they follow the two-click rule, which is most easily accomplished by putting the link inside of spoiler tags.

During the closing credits for Snakes on a Plane, there was a music video for a song based on the movie. The woman in the video was perpetually in the process of taking her clothes off, which I’m sure was meant to be sexy. But it didn’t look sexy-- It looked like she was severely mentally handicapped and, like a toddler, didn’t quite grasp the notion that clothes are to be worn in public.
That’s the one I though of upon reading the thread title.
My god, you’re right, I somehow forgot! I’ve never seen the video for “Pop Song 89”, but I surely saw the one for “Shiny Happy People”, and now remember a VERY sexy Kate Pierson!
I’ll call and raise you Tool videos.
Not sure the videos are sexy, but Tool is still good background music at times…
I’ve just seen it and it has three bare-breasted ladies and one, also very sexy, bare-breasted Michael Stipe! I don’t think the video got very much airplay back then. But it reminded me that R.E.M. also made the very sultry “Monster” album, so I rescind my statement that they don’t do sexy!
With one exception, and that’s “Pop Song 89.” The censored version, which is my favorite R.E.M. video, is extremely hard to find online, and the official uncensored version is NSFW.
Foo Fighters aren’t exactly in the “sexy video” business from what I’ve seen either, although “Big Me” was an instant classic, and the song still sounds just as good nearly 25 years later.
I actually came here to mention the least sexy band of all time, Rush.
The censored version was in moderate rotation for some time, and it even got lampooned on “Beavis and Butthead.”
(commenting on Michael Stipe’s shaved chest, which is also covered by a censor bar) “That chick has small boobs.”
“Yeah, you can tell even with that black square on there.”
FTR, the chicks in the background all had them too, because they were real.
And the video for “Near Wild Heaven” has a definite sexual vibe.
So does "Crush with Eyeliner."
Okay, my pick for least sexy video: “You Can Call Me Al” by Paul Simon.
It’s an entertaining video but I’m not seeing anything sexual there.
I vote for Carmina Burana.
It’s something people have come to believe but within the last few years I heard Nina Hartley speak about it saying, “Nobody at the time thought it ruined his career.” The video certainly wasn’t any more ridiculous than others of the era.

What was that Green Day video that showed a close-up of a tooth being pulled at the end? That was nasty, and so was Ministry’s “Just One Fix.” (B&B again) Any video that would cause Beavis to say that it was “beyond the limits of good taste” has GOT to be unpleasant.
I’ve got a few videos I’d like to nominate. None of them are supposed to be sexy.
First is Meshuggah’s Bleed. Chained beast-men, insects struggling on their backs, creepy evil zen-masters. A video that is gross, creepy and disturbing.
Next is my favorite music video, Celtic Frost’s A Dying God Coming into Human Flesh. Five minutes and forty-five seconds of cold, death, and anguish.
Then there’s Lamb of God’s 512, spoilered below due to graphic violence. The song was inspired by Randy Blythe’s stay in the worst prison on the Czech Republic. The video is about murder.
Finally a trio by the greatest weapon against hippy infestations, SLAYER. Repentless, You Against You, and Pride in Prejudice, all spoilered below due to extremely graphic violence. Events portrayed include murder during a prison riot, mass killing in self defense, a pregnant woman being murdered in front the unborn child’s father, and a neo-nazi crime-lord being murdered in front of his family. Seriously, do NOT click these links at work, at church, at grandma’s house (unless your grandma is METAL AS FUCK), in the presence of children, or anywhere where rated R movies would be unacceptable. There’s shooting, stabbing, jets of blood, and severed heads. It’s what happens when SLAYER gets to do whatever they want. And it’s amazing.

You Against You: SLAYER - You Against You (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO) - YouTube
Pride in Prejudice: SLAYER - Pride In Prejudice (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO) - YouTube
I’ll also throw in Norma Jean’s “If You’ve Got It at Five You’ve Got It at Fifty”. A music video that happened when the record label told the band that they had to use fake alcohol in their music video. It’s funny, a bit subversive, and you get to hear a Norma Jean song. There are people vomiting milk but there are also sexy girls in bikinis, so I guess it’s a wash?

Was David Bowie in the 80s thought to be sexy? Mick Jagger? Well, not so much here:
[/QUOTE]Or just Mick Jagger? Watch and listen to this at your own risk.
If sex is on your mind when you watch a DIE ANTWOORD song…something is wrong with you.
Was anyone, anywhere actually turned on watching Smells Like Teen Spirit?
Someone once said in “Kerrang!” magazine: “If you put this on your stereo to seduce someone, you will not be having sex.”
“This” was “Stairway to Heaven”
Years later, there were some “Zits” comic strips where Jeremy had taught himself to play the intro on his guitar, and his mother said, “You were conceived to that song!” :eek: The next strip had him rinsing his ear canals out under the sink.
Damn! Now that I think about it, that’s fuckin’ HOT!
