music exchange [songs you want videos made to]

[road_rash]

well, another good song is the game by trapt. With the right person using the song, you could make a really good music video. If you could pull it off, you could match the beat with what's going on in ur vid very well.

Another really great idea is A Certain Shade of Green by Incubus. This song is no soft song, the beat is really hard and fast, plus you could use the lyrics in it to your advantage:

A certain shade of green,
tell me, is that what you need?
All signs around say move ahead.
Could someone please explain to me your ever present
lack of speed?
Are your muscles bound by ropes?
Or do crutches cloud your day?
My sources say the road is clear,
and street signs guide my way.
Are you gonna stand around till 2012 A.D.?
What are you waiting for,
A certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate.
What are you waiting for,
A certain shade of green?
Would a written invitation
signed, "Choose now or lose it all,"
sedate your hesitation?
Or inflame and make you stall?
You've been raised in limitation,
but that glove never fit quite right.
The time has come for hand-me-downs,
choose anew, please evolve,
take flight
What are you waiting for?
A written invitation?
A public declaration?
A private consolation?



Just think about it for a second, and chances are you'll find a good anime to go along with it. Download the song and hear the beat as well, I almost garuntee you will be able to make a really great music video with it.

Collective Soul - The World I Know

This song would Make a good Evangelion video.

the words fit really well with the series

There's a new sound by Tony Burrello. I keep suggesting it but no one ever does it.

"I Feel Like I'm Fixin' to Die Rag" - Country Joe & The Fish

Lyrics:
Come on all of you big strong men
Uncle Sam needs your help again
he's got himself in a terrible jam
way down yonder in Viet Nam so
put down your books and pick up a gun we're
gonna have a whole lotta fun

(CHORUS)
And it's one, two, three, what are we fighting for
don't ask me I don't give a damn, next stop is Viet Nam
And it's five, six, seven, open up the pearly gates
ain't no time to wonder why, whoopee we're all gonna die

Come on generals, let's move fast
your big chance has come at last
now you can go out and get those reds
cos the only good commie is the one that's dead and
you know that peace can only be won when we've
blown 'em all to kingdom come

Come on wall street don't be slow
why man this war is a go-go
there's plenty good money to be made by
supplying the army with the tools of its trade
let's hope and pray that if they drop the bomb,
they drop it on the Viet Cong

Come on mothers throughout the land
pack your boys off to Viet Nam
come on fathers don't hesitate
send your sons off before it's too late
and you can be the first ones on your block
to have your boy come home in a box

this, I feel could make a good comedy video, but I am always unsure of what anime to use. Make fun of war!

This song also starts with the fish cheer.

Also, "What You Whistle When You Walk Home (After You've Thrown Up In Front Of Your Friends)", by 86 (the band) could make a good amv. Yeah it's kinda gross, but I think it could be pretty trippy. I'll never do it myself because there's this one part of the song with an instrument which makes me dizzy. I usually suggest FLCL with this one, but use your own judgement.
You can buy their CDs (it's on their first CD) from their website here
Another song on their first CD called "How to get there" could make a decent to good various video, imo. But there are a couple of parts I picture with DBZ footage and I don't have any so I'll probably never do it myself.

the AMV should have something with a beat or that goes with the main point. ^_^
