This thread is for sharing/discussing any interesting observations you have made of certain music videos.
This is from the music video of Bush's "Swallowed". I think it's interesting that the person on the right is wearing a Korn t-shirt. The music video was filmed in October 1996. Korn had not yet fully emerged in the mainstream. While their debut album did chart at #10 in New Zealand back in 1994 and "No Place to Hide" peaked at #26 in Late 1996 in the UK, i'm sure the majority of people wouldn't have known who Korn were at that point in time. Apologies for the poor image quality, but the video was only uploaded in 240P and this was the best screen-capture I could take. This is from the music video of "Trippin'", a song released by the New Zealand hair-metal band, Push Push. What's interesting about it, is that the drummer is wearing a Nirvana t-shirt. "Trippin'" topped the NZ charts in Early 1991, several months before Nirvana emerged in the mainstream with Nevermind. It's quite ironic that a member of a hair-metal band is wearing a t-shirt based on an underground Grunge band.

I just realized, yesterday, this is a seriously creepy music video. I don't know why, but looking at it again put me in a sort of uncomfortable state.

They seem psychotically possessed, and not just the sunglasses, but also the outrageous outfits make them seem especially out of this world. Also, there's the fact that this is a music video for a Justin Bieber song that doesn't have Bieber at all, instead just this posse of creepy chicks. It actually comes across as subliminally threatening to me.
