Pop Daddy's Favorite Music Videos: Day 4


Day 4: Justice - New Lands

"So you're running in a best of three
And you gunning for it all
May the king fall"

I can't remember who recommended this video to me, but this is one that I revisit often. The "Rollerball"esque 1970's dystopian sci fi look really seals it and sells the techno beat of the song. This video was sponsored by red bull, and except for a blink and you'll miss it cameo by a can (photo in comments), there is no product placement. Great video, great song, I highly recommend this one.

"I followed you across the stars I looked for you in seedy bars" Rolling Stones - Love is Strong After he killed Dwayne Hicks and before he made Brad Pitt his Johnny Depp, David Fincher returned to directing music videos. When the Stones released Voodoo Lounge in the early 90's, Fincher took the helm of this video. The concept is the Stones and a few model looking people take New York by storm. But in this universe, they're like Kaiju or something, it goes all over the city and it's a treat for Stones fans and NYC fans. A fantastic video and a great song.  Rolling Stones - Love Is Strong

The video is very warm and dream like. This one is a definite comfort video.  Zero 7 - Destiny

"I'm a thief, I'm a liar There's my church, and I sing in the choir!" Pearl Jam - Do the Evolution Peal Jam is the type of band, where they've got some great songs, but the videos are lacking, in my opinion. Save, for this one. This one co-directed by Todd Macfarlane is both rocking and haunting, from the time of dinosaurs to a haunting view of a dystopian future. The song pairs perfectly with the video. Enjoy.  Pearl Jam - Do the Evolution
