Aahh, remember music videos? Remember when MTV played them, and they used to be a wonderful blend of camp and coolness? There is a new trend toward beautiful, cinematic music videos being made by a combination of innovative musicians and creative producers. And chances are, you won't be able to find them anywhere on TEEVEE. M3 Online has collected the 65 best videos of the year, and it is a wonderful collection that is available for download.
