What they call love is a risk, cause you will always get hit out of nowhere by some wave and end up on your own.

The song is live. I have to get up and dance when I hear it. Go your own way.

This video, along with other invisible children videos, is incredibly moving. The cause is incredible. It makes me proud to be a part of the rescue.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxvGHQHiY70
This video is epicly weird in the best way possible. It reminds me of something David Lynch would dream of after taking three tabs of acid, Enjoy this video and explore this band afterwards.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPXU33iquDE
Jack Johnson Better Together
I am sure it is in the mix already, but I don't care. This song always makes me thing of long talks and invaluable time spent. Their is never enough time!
@Honeycombcakes I was just planning to post the same video, thank you for putting it up there. It is an incredible source of strength.

A short video about the search for certitude between the body and the soul. While Lisa offers Travis the gift of eternal light that shines by having faith in her existence, its radiance is obscured from reaching him, by an external impediment that clouds his spiritual perception...but the source of the light remains unchanged and continues to shine with undiminished power.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_g21wl48AY
Never fails to make me cry. It's what I sing to myself when something goes wrong. It's a beautiful representation of the writings by a beautiful heart.
This song makes me want to jump around although the video is a bit freaky - in a good way :P

whoops, by the way, the song is
Northern Downpour by Panic at the Disco
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQr_9MEy8MQ
It makes me happy and calm. I want to go put random signs everywhere to get a message across and remind people of simpler times. I love that they make everything so antiquey and beautiful and incredible.

Armed (In Loving Memory of Kathy Grammar) by Devon Gundry
This is a powerful reminder of God's love for us in the worst moments of our lives. The passionate crescendo of the Greatest Name of God moves me to tears every time I watch this beautiful piece. It is a gift to humanity and shows dramatically how art is a form of worship.
I see the need for the unification of mankind. The teaching of virtues and morals for our children. The time to act is now...
Serj Tankian - Empty Walls

Michael Franti is one of the best out there right now.
This song speaks for itself and helps you out with

Anti-war theme and a great band, what more do you need? The rock sound and the way the crowd goes wild really adds to an already powerful message. Deserves a least one listen

Growing up listening to country music, and now listening to many other genres, I still love this song. It has helped me cope with many situations in life. I still cry when I listen to it.
"How Can I Help You to Say Goodbye" by Patty Loveless
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEx7pkmFc6s
This was the song that inspired all of my romance dreams as a teen.
Looking back, it's a pretty disturbing look into my psyche.
It still gives me chills, the good kind.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTGKzWDakK8
Give all you have.
Never look back.

TLC- Unpretty
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9HnoRgRIwg
This is my favorite song of all time. It always makes me want to dance like a fool and sport my "I was raised in Dee-troit" attitude. Truth is, I am a boring 41 year old mom wearing mom-jeans and cardigans, but I was once a cool kat with pink hair and punk grooves. Hard to believe, ha-ha.
FLIP FANTASIA!

Freedom in the unknown.
Full of summer yumminess.
Turn, turn, turn.

The video makes me want to be extremely playful and without reservation. It inspires me to do what I want and not be afraid of what others might think. All in all is makes me appreciate freedom.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CPo2v9ujug
The lyrics are positively uplifting. Better yet, a rollercoaster of emotions.

There's beauty in sorrow.
Handlebars by the Flobots - http://www.vimeo.com/2251079
(this video blows my mind. I recommend watching it at least 2 or 3 times to get all the hidden meanings)
We often start walking the same path with our enemies.
Even the best of intentions can start us down a path of hurt and destruction.
Power, when unchecked, corrupts and destroys.

@highonjoy oh, I love this video! It was the first thing that came to mind when thinking of unique, most watched videos... but stopped myself from posting it 'coz it doesn't exactly fall under the 'makes your heart beat out of its ribcage' criteria :)
But it's a nice concept all the same. It's similar to certain sections of the Matt & Kim - Daylight video posted by Beirut
@Sihoatani What a great pick! Tom is one of the greats on guitar. It is good they are back together.
The new Royksopp track happy up here, harking to a bygone time bringing me back to my youth infectious and fun and the video is dazzling!

music videos are to visually portray a story that the songwriter/artist attempted to get across in their lyrics/feelings/sound. Just as a successful music video can, I find that one of the most moving ways a song can be expressed is through dance, therefore this is my heart-beating-out-of-my-chest video:

1. Anywhere is home under the sun
2. I'm going to make my life as exciting as i can, doing whatever i can.
3. You can have fun no matter whats going on. especially when we are together.
Don't slow down. ever.
@raki wow. i never thought of it that way. great observation. just a little back story: it takes place in iceland, way out in the middle of the north atlantic, where everyone is quite pale (not a lot of hot sun up there). maybe the kids are trying to break out from that isolated world and make their way off to see the rest of the peoples of the globe.
@jalepenojello this made my heart beat triple fast. i want sillystring. and backwardsness.

"Typical" by Mute Math

Will my life ever seem to go in fast forward? Instead of rewind? Can I break the spell of the typical?
The awakening of my social consciousness at the age of 12 occurred simultaneously with the release of Rage Against the Machine's video for "Freedom" - it inspired me to lead a life dedicated to social justice so, to me, this was a GODSEND.

Accept others for who they are, despite their imperfections. Growing up can change your perception of the world, but you can't avoid this. Don't be phased if things don't go the way you planned because life is unpredictable.

Every time I hear this song I think of how messed up I was after my girlfriend of 3 years broke up with me. Everything was so different and nothing felt right for a while, I didn't think i would ever find my way back to what society considers "normal". Now I realize that she made mountains out of ant hills all of the time and I'm a lot better off without her, in other words, I've landed.
Sigur Ros is an amazingly talented band from Iceland.
Seeing them live is a spiritual experience that everyone should feel.
Untitled 8 is hands down their best song that puts this one to rest; feel it.

1.) The line, "Love is a verb. Love is a doing word," slays me.
2.) The ambient quality and the beat send me to this place where I want to meditate and dance simultaniously.
3.) The baby singing in the womb makes me think about perception, and humanity, and why we are here.

Diving into the sea of the sky.

Knowing better than us.

To the gates of limitations.

Let go.

I'm not a big music video watcher but this one gets me *every* time
The scenes of the different types of love makes my heart swell and want to burst out of my chest. Makes me also want to curl up on the couch with my bf. And finally there's a tear in my eye of happiness at the end.

Ruins/Peace Train - Cat Stevens
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtXWdLXKBJ8
1. The banter at the beginning brings back sharp memories of sitting at a desk in China, watching the video load with agonizing slowness while my best friend leaned on the back of my chair saying "start it over, start it over, we need to watch him say that again while it loads".
2. The juxtaposition of a song of despair - "Ruins" - next to a song of naive hope - "Peace Train" - is poignant.
3. The explosive energy of Cat Stevens as he sings these songs makes me simultaneously want to curl up on my bed with a blanket and cry and dance in the rain.
Nope, I'm not a romantic at all - why do you ask? ;)

This video illustrates why you should be careful in agreeing to let an aging superstar sing a duet with you. You never know when he is going to wrestle your own song away from you (2:11) and make it his own (2:34). Giants walk among us.
To make a mountain out of a soul-hill, it takes a child-eye view.
And enough courage to see, and some rocks, and levity.
The levity alone will do, if courage and rocks are few.

Paul Potts' first audition on 'Britain's got Talent'

seriously.
every now and then, TV does something real.
i can't watch this without crying, and i've watched millions of times!
some music is eternal, and will uplift even the most unexpected of creatures...
@Bellyboopster I was about to post the same vid! An amazing piece of music, one that symbolizes a pretty dark time in my life. Pretty amazing, cuz it's basically just a love song... but I took it differenty.
A world where children can fly is my idea of truth. I never want to tell my son he can't fly and achieve whatever he wants. Children are boundless and limitless creatures. What a world it would be if we all taught our children that anything is possible. Nothing is off limits and love can cure all that ails us.

The lyrics are haunting. The sound compelling. The video utterly enthralling, with a thick edge of danger.
Mathieu Chedid - Faut Oublier
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRXhy0fp6Dk
The beauty of the song goes beyond lyrics and language.
Meanings come through in dark rainbows of longing.
Not knowing exactly what it is about, makes me love it all the more.
Marc Broussard - "Home"

Just an old fashioned, bayou funk party. Get's me all jacked up. You don't know nothing about this.
Radiohead. "Weird Fishes" on Jools Holland.
This is miraculous.

Head space happy. I forget myself when I hear this on my iPod. Dangerous to listen to while driving, but rapturous to listen to when walking or just laying on your back. You just float away.
@Aviv
You're welcome :-)
Here's the actual video

Everyone's time comes at some point or another. It is easy to die. It is hard to be left behind.
The Mars Volta - "Televators"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPeSbITit5U
The whole premise behind the album that this song comes from, "De-Loused in the Comatorium" is very deep rooted and enigmatic where upon being in a self-inflicted coma a man deals with manifestations of humanity and true being. The first time I saw the video for this song I watched it no less than 5 times in a row, as the visuals are stunning and capture the essence of its meaning.

I can't get over this song because it reminds me that God is so close to me, even when I am not looking. It spurs me to change things in my life because I know God is always looking out for me and ready to accept me in all my imperfection. I just have to turn towards him.

reflecting the patterns of brain activity, in microseconds. an inspiring sensory assault that is an exercise in the possibilities of music technology and sound design. the appearance of chaos is deceiving.
Most recently... Radiohead "House of Cards" from IN RAINBOWS. The video is just magical

The way they innovate even music videos these days through digital goodness is amazing. This video was shot without cameras. Without IN RAINBOWS I think I would have been musically lost for the last 2 years.
