We all know BTS is known for their epic music videos, unlike most artists today who treat them like an afterthought rather than an art form. So I thought I& #39;d do a thread of some of my fav MVs from back when artists used MVs as a tool to tell stories and push the envelope.
Guns N& #39; Roses - November Rain
Nine minutes long, this MV sent shockwaves through the music world when it came out and rightly so. https://youtu.be/8SbUC-UaAxE ">https://youtu.be/8SbUC-UaA...

Michael Jackson - Thriller
This should be on every fav MV list. He changed the game with what you could in a MV with Thriller. https://youtu.be/sOnqjkJTMaA ">https://youtu.be/sOnqjkJTM...

Smashing Pumpkins - Tonight, Tonight
Visually stunning and ingenious use of silent film history. https://youtu.be/NOG3eus4ZSo ">https://youtu.be/NOG3eus4Z...

Soundgarden - Black Hole Sun
The first MV I ever remember watching. It stuck with me 5 year old me hard with its weirdness, dark humor and social commentary. https://youtu.be/3mbBbFH9fAg ">https://youtu.be/3mbBbFH9f...

My Chemical Romance - I& #39;m Not Okay
The video that birthed so many emo kids, and a hell of a lot of fan fic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhZTNgAs4Fc">https://www.youtube.com/watch...

OK Go- Here It Goes Again
Low budget af but that didn& #39;t matter at all. This one is all about the creativity and the choreography. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTAAsCNK7RA">https://www.youtube.com/watch...

REM- Losing My Religion
Stunning cinematography and leaves plenty of room for each person to theorize about and take what they want from it https://youtu.be/xwtdhWltSIg ">https://youtu.be/xwtdhWltS...

Beyonce - Single Ladies
There was nobody who didn& #39;t know this dance after this MV came out. Visually simple but striking and memorable all at the same time. https://youtu.be/4m1EFMoRFvY ">https://youtu.be/4m1EFMoRF...

Madonna- Like A Prayer
I could have picked so many Madonna vids, but this one is the most memorable for me. It was her first that actually really struck me, as young as I was, and I was fascinated by how angry it made my mom LOL https://youtu.be/79fzeNUqQbQ ">https://youtu.be/79fzeNUqQ...

Pearl Jam - Jeremy
(TW: guns, suicide, school shootings)
This video struck a chord when it came out. It was shocking and honest and affected me deeply at a very young age.
