So while on a nostalgia trip on YouTube recently I played The Masterplan by Oasis, generally considered (by myself and others) to be one of the best Oasis songs despite only being released as a B side*
Even though I have listened to this song countless times and Oasis were a pivotal part of my formative years (I went to university in their home town at the height of their fame) I had absolutely no idea it has quite a cool animated video, sort of a mash up of Lowry and Yellow Submarine:
Not too surprising as there were only relatively short periods where I watched music videos regularly (basically the times in my life I had access to MTV, MTV was still playing music, and I cared enough about the occasional pop music song to put up with the rest of the drivel)
Anyone else discover a good music video for a song they had been listening to for decades?

- as an aside I wonder if the Gallagher brothers regretted releasing this as a B side later when they were struggling to release anything except generic forgettable fillers.
