Just - Great song, great vid
Teen Spirit - Great song, iconic (but not spectacular) vid
Just A Day - Decent song, terrific vid
Coffee + TV - ditto

Much as I love Feeder, Just A Day is an abysmal video. In general Feeder do poor videos.
Radiohead's Just is a given for the awesomeness of the video, Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit is a given for the awesomeness of the song. Metallica and Blur get my two other votes.

Oh God, this is a tough group, I could quite happily see six videos from this lot go through.
- One gets my vote, because it's Metallica, and one of the best videos in this contest.
- Teen Spirit isn't that great a video but the song is, as Hero said, iconic.
- My last two votes went to Coffee + TV and Just a Day. Both are personal favourites of mine.
Usually I'd have voted for Just instead of er, Just a Day, but I have a sneaking feeling the former won't need my vote.
Can't wait for DML's breakdown of this one.

Alexisonfire's video was good and I like that song, Metallica's song and video was superb, as was Muse and Linkin Park.

My vote goes to Feeder, just love the video. Shows you don't have to have millions put into a video to make it good
Runner up - Muse
Wondefully shot video, goes well with the music
Nirvana - Just such an iconic video but nto the best in the group

The Blur video is by far the best.

Blur
Radiohead
Muse
Nirvana
Videos in that order, like the songs pretty much equally.
Was considering abstaining in the presence of Linkin Park but then I realised the number wasn't the rank. (If it is, I'm leaving the forum.)

Are my breakdowns FUNNY to you?
This does look a difficult group, I'll have a sit down later when I have some time. I have to watch all the videos, make sure I'm being fair!

No, more interesting. I just thought you might have a tough time deciding with this group because there's (IMO) six pretty strong contenders.

There really are. I must say theres a lot of videos I don't know well in this group (I'm no music video buff, just a fan of the artform) so I'm very much looking forward to sitting down and voting well!
