Disagree. Most music videos are commercials (and usually not worth a second, or first, glance), but the best music videos are not. Those that only funcation on the level of an ad for the music are a failure, an abuse of a potentially revolutionary medium. A music video should embody artistic values as much as the music it accompanies. Zenon M. Feszczak Ambientologist
