Favorite fan-made music videos?

Echoes by Pink Floyd synced with the last 25 minutes of Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. Stunning.

Enjoy.

I found two decent DS9 videos on Youtube. One to Johnny Cash's "Hurt" (before anyone points it out I know it's a cover). The other with VNV Nation's "Endless Sky" that covered Sisko's journey as the Emissary.
Click to expand...
I know the latter: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BU1E3xW4lE

but I really can't find the one set to Cash's "Hurt". :shrug:

There is one set to Christina Aguilera's song called "Hurt" :klingon: lame song, but nice video about Ziyal.

A few other DS9 videos I like include:

Garak: Obsidian Order Man
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVV-8f1kOvE - very fun video

With or Without You (Odo/Kira) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hVB1kddPb0

This one is really great:
Gul Dukat: The End Has Come http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATVh1tqtI80 - the author has bravely incorporated the Pah-wraiths storyline... you might have already know from my 100 rants that I despise the storyline, but the video is pretty good and almost manages to make sense out of it.

The Pah-wraiths are still more suitable to make fun of, as in this funny video:
Ring of Fire Caves: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kiZ8xOLkZPo

Another one, by the same author, was even funnier: Strange Bedfellows: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cDNIuWdSQg but unfortunately the music track ("Strangers in the Night" by Frank Sinatra) has been disabled by Youtube :klingon: Just play "Strangers in the Night" over it, and it becomes really hilarious - especially the line "something in your eyes was so exciting..." (guess which scene that was set to...) :guffaw: :guffaw: :guffaw:


My favorite Star Trek fanvideo is
Make This Go On Forever - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfdPwvA9wIQ - about Spock from both realities, Prime and Alternate - with clips from ST09 as well as TOS and TWOK, set to the Snow Patrol song. (Make sure you read the description!)

Another really good one about Spock - this time about TUC and Spock/Valeris:
Hallelujah - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sl5Tv0JE2s

And I have to include the one about Spock and women (not just romance... women in general) set to Interpol. :)
Spock and the ladies http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7o5Wezhzf9s


I used to have a bunch of great BSG videos in my Favorites, but most of them seemed to be taken down. :mad:
They included a Baltar video set to Muse "Mao of the Problematique", Helo video set to the same song (it is still on YT, but YT forced the author to change the song to something stupid), a Baltar/Six video set to "One Caress" by Depeche Mode, a Baltar video set to "The Great Below" by Nine Inch Nails, a Starbuck video with clips from "Maelstrom" set to "Give Me Strength" by Over the Rhine and another one with the same theme set to "Home" by Depeche Mode, two different Boomer/Chief videos set to "Missing" by Evanescence, a video about Baltar's trial set to "Walking In My Shoes" by Depeche Mode (which I gave the idea to my YT friend for, and he made a really good video... I haven't made any of my own yet, but I will)...

Here are a few that have survived:

Our Enemies, Ourselves http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qhcvpWelzI

Broken Toy (Saul Tigh/Ellen) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdL00gfbi6A

Battlestar Galactica and "dance with the devil" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeGkqW3YvCE

Sleeping with Ghosts - Baltar/Six (and Placebo) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXSb-PwfyTs


The Guilt of Those Who Ran (basically Lee's speech at the trial, but well edited) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKqG5NOvAG8


other shows:

La Femme Nikita fanvideo: Eden - Nikita and Madeline (NOT femslash!)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xDfbdXNc_I

Haunted (Xena/Ares) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=geij_kWl1J8 - two guilty pleasures merged into one, Xena the Warrior Princess and Evanescence :D

Heroes: Disarm (Sylar/Elle) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeWJnoy33SY

There was a really fun video about Sylar set to "In the Dark of the Night", but I can't find it anymore - I guess it has been taken down, too. :(


and... prepare yourself for the best video ever...

John Locke's Secret Mr Clean's commercial!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYFmHgaQMBI :)

here's the sequel! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BEEVbvcqp0

and the final one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tv7wLvN4oT4

Johnny Cash's "Hurt" is a great song for really torturous subject matter. I recall a pretty good Angel video on the subject that chronicles Wesley's arc.

"Holding out for a Hero" generally yields very good videos in any fandom. I've seen quite a few good ones set to that, including a couple Doctor Who videos (Jon Pertwee & David Tennant) and a Torchwood video.
 
I just want to state that, while I am in no way a fan of Coldplay at all, there's some damn interesting fodder for music videos there.

I have a terrific Firefly vid on my computer set to "Falling for the First Time", back from before Serenity came out. Unfortunately I can't seem to find it online anywhere.

My husband made this vid - It's not online anywhere but it is pretty ... Shiny.

Possibly not what you're looking for but I think this song about technobabble in Star Trek is pretty funny.

I can't post anything videos right now, but I will try to add them in later: Someone swapped the music intros on NuBSG and the U.S. version of The Office. Surprisingly it really changed the feel for both shows. My favorite though is someone did an almost shot-for-shot remake of Journey's horrible Separate Ways video. Extreme cheese, but it worked.

Here's a video I stumbled upon last year...

It's so good that I thought it was the real thing.

[yt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaAWdljhD5o[/yt]

It's made by a wacky girl named Shawna Howson aka "Nanalew". She has quite the following and a lot of other videos. Check 'em out.

Here's the "making of" clip for the above video...

And here's a sample of her wackiness...
