Gotye, “Somebody That I Used To Know” (2011) Katy Perry strips down before slipping into her cotton candy cloud-covered bed in her video for “California Gurls,” which takes place in the sweet land of “Candyfornia.” Sugar and spice and everything nice, that’s what Katy Perry and her gurls are made of. The incredibly strange video is difficult to decipher, but it keeps viewers watching for an astounding nine minutes. The clip chronicles the ups and downs of a very sad-looking LaBeouf and his graceful girlfriend - or at least that’s what it seems to be chronicling. Shia LeBeouf literally bares it all in the avant-garde short film for Sigur Rós’ “Fjögur Píanó,” which is definitely NSFW.
The lyrics, if you were wondering, translate as: “Mumble mumble, shnerdle, herdle, erm, have we done three verses yet?”Ī cheery A-Z of drug-taking that successfully lampoons the clubbing experience by making it look authentically hideous.NSFW: Sigur Rós (w/ Shia LeBeouf), “Fjögur Píanó” (2012) Also includes extreme, no-holds barred close-ups of fish. Not remotely explicit, but boundary-probing in a way, in that it features two teenage boys kissing (5.24) – and makes it look epic and romantic, rather than playing it for shock value. What next, a warning at the start of ‘Thriller’ reassuring viewers that it’s not the actual exhumed corpse of Jacko dancing around like that? Supposedly, MTV would only show it with an introduction from Jay-Z himself explaining that it was a metaphorical death, not a real one. Our hero gets gunned down in the final sequence. Where are all the mime artists and blokes cycling past wearing stripy jumpers carrying baguettes. Supposedly ‘hard-hitting’ and ‘gritty’, but it doesn’t look much like Paris to me. It’s essentially ‘The Wicker Man’ as re-enacted by readers of Nylon magazine. There’s some sinister stuff involving a dead dog and some spooky-looking children, culminating with a boy cajoling a girl into chopping off his hand. None of it’s as entertaining as David Cross’ cameo as the clueless DJ, though. A feel-good classic.ĭirected by Jonas Åkerlund (of ‘Smack My Bitch Up’ fame), so we shouldn’t be surprised that it features close-up footage of a cock (and I don’t mean singer Til Lindemann).ĭrunken texting, vomiting on the pavement, gay fumbling in a toilet cubicle – it’s basically the average indie fan’s night on the town. In this snuff movie-esque clip, vaguely reminiscent of an episode of ‘Sexcetera’ gone wrong, a masochist is strapped, naked, to a metal torture device which slowly drills into his flesh before ultimately ripping his insides out, draining his blood for use as garden fertilizer.
Check out our killer Marilyn Manson merch collection in the NME Store.What, no quiet night in watching ‘Come Dine With Me’. In which we see self-proclaimed God Of Fuck Marilyn Manson self-harming in a bubble bath before indulging in a marathon of cocaine and kinky bondage sex. If you’ve ever wanted to see Bjork simulating fellatio – relax, it’s arty – then this is the video for you. Here, a naked woman wafts around the band while they play, before decapitating Ryan Jarman and lopping off brother Ross’s arm, like the world’s most annoying groupie. Like most ‘controversial’ videos, this one combines nudity with extreme violence. This video has it all: a woman in a nappy grappling with a sumo wrestler, an oiled-up fat bloke, and a man in a horse mask waving his bum at the camera. Pretty much like a Vice magazine cover shoot, then. Not massively explicit, it’s true, but at one point there’s a grainy shot of a rail-thin hipster with his balls hanging out.
