YouTube’s 100 Most Awesome Music Videos

By Wired Blogs June 21, 2006 Categories: Multimedia

The music mavens over at Pitchfork have compiled a list of the 100 most awesome music videos on YouTube.com. The site’s editors trolled YouTube for their favorite videos, coming up with a ton of classics and a few surprises.

This is a great example of the power of a repository like YouTube, not only as a tool for archiving and sharing documents, but also as a filter on our culture. Nothing provides a more accurate representation of the net’s zeitgeist than YouTube, del.icio.us, and the other community-oriented Web 2.0 sites. I like to think of them as “culture libraries” that we’ll be able to browse in the future to relive moments in time.

In the meantime, enjoy a classic like The Replacements’ “Bastards of Young.”
