Honestly I don't get the Unfinished Sympathy hype. It was a fresh idea? What was the idea? I wasn't aware that it contained an idea.

(To be fair, I do like it. The look and the setting does complement the music really well, and I appreciate the effort that goes into one-shot videos.)

Unfinished Sympathy is just someone walking down a sidewalk or have I missed the point of it completely? Pretty boring to be honest.

Man, I don't see that at all, in fact one thing I love about Buddy Holly vid is exactly how effortless and unassuming it seems to be. Just a bit of fun.

I agree about Unfinished Sympathy being seemingly effortless, and how lethal said, it compliments the music perfectly. Jonze's got many other contenders here, so guys, pls vote Massive Attack 🙁

'Unfinished Sympathy' is beautiful, and at the time was a fresh idea (later done more famously by The Verve). It complements the song perfectly. 'Buddy Holly' is cool and quirky and fun, but nothing on the Massive Attack video.

I'm probably missing something here, but I really didn't think that the video for Unfinished Symphony was all that great. Gotta go with Weezer here.

Shit, two great vids, both for very different reasons. Think I'm gonna go with Unfinished Sympathy though, would be a real shame not to have it in next rounds.
