Oh yeah, pick one... I'll take "Just Like Honey" by JAMC. Cool personified, especially when you're in junior high.

Remember when Tim Sommer did some hosting on weekdays? Before signing Hootie to Atlantic? Garg.
Coil's "Tainted Love," for the outrageously evil moment when one Mr. M. Almond saunters in, smirks at John Balance in his sickbed, eats a grape and then leaves.

Tim Sommer will be spared when the revolution comes because he was in Hugo Largo.

The same can be said about "Hurdy Gurdy Man" as covered by Butthole Surfers - if only that whole album (_Pioughd_) was as fun as that video...
My pick is "Can't Go Wrong Without You" by His Name Is Alive. The video was made by the Brothers Quay with stop-motion animation and features the devil trying to steal an egg from a humanoid bunny and a doll who appears to be menstruating on a scale. This video not only introduced me to HNIA but also to the Brothers Quay, and needless to say, it blew my mind. Also, kudos to HNIA for picking the weirdest, least-accessible track on the album for their video.
Oh, 120 Minutes...they played some good stuff back in the day. That, and IRS's The Cutting Edge. Pine, pine...I felt sad for annoying Dave Kendall after his stint on 120 Minutes when I saw him host some really awful music show called Music Scoupe. I also felt sad when I saw _The Year Punk Broke_ and the audience erupted into groans when he appeared on the screen.

Remember the Awake on the Wildside duo? Lisa Edelstein and that guy? I actually enjoyed watching them. What was I doing up that early back then, though?
I knew a guy who used to go out with the "He said! Shut up! Oh God can't you keep it down!" fella from the Til Tuesday "Voices Carry" video. He was a violent creep in real life, too, apparently.
Martha Quinn used to work at the front desk of my dorm at NYU. I used to have to ask her for toilet paper. I loved her. I can't believe she dated both Stiv Bators and Paul Schaeffer.
