11. Ciudad – Benny And Betty

Not quite a fan of Ciudad but I love watching their videos. I think I just don’t quite get their music just yet; maybe in the future. I love ‘em clays, though.

10. Sugarfree – Kwarto

I could have chosen Kung Ayaw Mo Na Sa Akin, that video was quirky and funny but I feel that I have been mostly into slow songs more than the Quirky Sugarfree songs so it’s only fair I put Kwarto on the list. And besides, once upon a time, this was the soundtrack of my life. The song had me the day I saw this video! I love that letter that was over-layed on the video. It was said to be Ebe’s own handwriting.

9. Fatal posporos – Sili Song

I have only seen this video like 3 months ago while I was researching on what to put on this Top 11 List, I was just mesmerized by how these girls had all the fun back when I was all too deep in my Science books.

8. Markus Highway – Bonfire

Beach fun! Humor and Wisdom, or Humor in Wisdom that’s what this music video has. There’s this low-res uniqueness plus the fun in it that you just can’t help but be envious as you watch it.

7. Taken By Cars – December 2

I heard from a semi-reliable source that this track is about one of their friend who killed herself. That explains the video pretty well. Someone in an almost perfect colorful world that just keeps running.

6. Urbandub – First of Summer

I think this track is Urbandub’s “that Hit,” if ChicoSci had Paris, this is Urbandub’s Paris. The track they rarely miss to play in a gig because it’s what keeps the audience dancing. The video has a story which tells us that Urbandub’s not your ordinary OPM band, they are deep and introspective much like the lyrics of their songs.

5. Pupil – Different Worlds

I think Ely for one understands how a solid fan base is beneficial in a band’s career, being in the industry for almost a couple of decades now. And I like this music video because they performed with their fans. The ones that frequent their gigs, the ones that sell the shirts Dok’s Shirts – he has a printing business. And that comfy Couch, it looks so familiar, don’t you think?

4. Sandwich – Masilungan (girl version)

I know, it’s so “Senti” so you might be thinking STFU it can’t even come close to the top 100! Well, the video has an undeniable depth. The portraits of people in their lonesome moments are artistically shot that you can see yourself in one the portraits. So I can’t help watching the music video over and over again. Just like reading a Jessica Zafra book or something, it’s corny but you like it because you see yourself in every cuss or experience she expresses.

3. The Vince Noir Project – Wha’ A Git

I was so into TVNP at a certain point in my life. Maybe until now, and no matter what you say this has got to be the most low budget awesome music video. It’s so original. Who would think of black background with holes in it, Aless with only a duck tape on, and the rest of the guys in their own dance moves, or whatever that was—only Quark. Kudos to him for this.

2. Imago – Akap

There is but one purpose why musicians has to make music videos: promotion. Okay, maybe in a perfect world you do it for Art, but we’re not even close to a perfect world. I don’t have a point, really. This video is awesome is putting across the meaning of the song. It’s a close to perfect song and by this video it makes it all the more better.

1. Narda – Motolov

I saw this video shortly after the band announced they’re disbanding. The song took a whole new meaning for me. The band that used to sound sweet and jazzy had evolved into an edgier, angrier indie garage punk band. The video is just garage punk and I love it. The video brings heartbreak and a pinch of joy which you can feel by their infectious energy and love for their craft.
