6 Great Music Videos (For Totally Different Reasons)
In no particular order.
Yes, that's Christopher Walken. Just doing his thing. He's actually a trained dancer, you know.
I'm not sure just why I love this video, but I do. Probably some symbolic synergy of the Rorschach, that combination of surrealism, symmetry, symbolism, subjectivity, and psychology, all things that strike chords of mine. What do you see in it?
Innovation will get you everywhere. This is actually a sequel to the video for their song The Stampede.
With all the publicity he got later for his appearance, habits, and Peter Pan syndrome, some people forget why he was called the King of Pop. Just look at those moves. Thriller gets a mention as well, but although more ambitious, it's as much a short film as a music video, and Smooth Criminal just takes the cake for the style.
Odds are you've heard this song, but the music video makes it so much better. This just may be one of the best dances of all time, for reasons I can't explain.

Sexism, Racism, and Other '-ism's: What's Right and What's Right
Discriminatory issues such as sexism and racism get a lot of attention nowadays. Enough so that I shouldn't need to argue whether or why they are bad, or still a problem. Rather, I'd like to make a meta-argument about the issue.
As a note, this argument is general to all issues of difference between people, not just racism, sexism, or even groups - it also applies to individual differences.
