Super Bad-Ass Jedi

I've been watching more music videos since YouTube hit the scene, and I was wondering if anybody had any thoughts on the best music videos of 2006. My favorites so far are:

The Thermals - "A Pillar of Salt"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4Iobo18U9w

The Hold Steady - "Chips Ahoy"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1HP5R2oDAQ

Those videos from Silent Shout were outstanding. I loved the red and black one for "We Share Our Mother's Health." I can't believe not a single one of them made it onto Pitchforkmedia's best videos of the year list, especially after they talked them up so much.

I also enjoyed all of 12 of the individual videos of from Drum's Not Dead included on the DVD. That long one with the snail was absolutely boring and terrible though.

I liked the Persephone's Bees' videos at their myspace site, though I can't recall which I liked best. Otherwise, I really haven't seen many new music videos lately.

I'm not sure anything could ever beat the video Muse did for Knights of Cydonia.

other favorites

Gnarls Barkley - Crazy
RHCP - Dani California
The Thermals - A Pillar of Salt
all of the Sean Lennon and Beck videos
and yes... every video that The Knife makes seems to be incredible.

I'll believe in Anything- Wolf Parade: Yes, the album was officially released in '05 but the music video came out this year...
