Top 10: Music Videos by Spike Jonze

Now that the World Series is over and the Yankees have won their 27th World Championship life around these parts can get back to normal. No more scheduling things around game time, waiting till the last out to go out, and missing everything I hope to see! That means this weekend I will finally have a chance to see Where the Wild Things Are my second most anticipated movie of the year (The Road is first) three weeks after it came out! At this point everyone’s probably seen it so don’t spoil it for me! Anyway, since I’ll be seeing the movie I thought it was a good time to look back on the career of the movie’s director Spike Jonze, specifically the amazing music videos that helped to kick start his ascent to fame! Jonze has worked with some of the best bands throughout the last two decades, putting an emphasis on dancing and movement in his videos and they are a spectacular collection of the best in all genres - rock, hip hop, dance, you name it he’s probably dabbled in it. He’s won tons of awards from MTV, has a DVD collection of most of his videos, and has pretty much done everything he could to push the music video into a new direction all of his own making. It was tough to narrow it down to 10, there are so many great ones, so feel free to chime and let us know what you think we left out! Enjoy!
