Hate 'em, love 'em, whatever. It depends on the artist; most of them are purely promotional but I think some artists have done really creative work in music videos. I think Kate Bush as produced some of the best videos of the last ten years, with _Running Up That Hill_ and _Cloudbusting_ being the best examples (but then I'm a big fan of Kate Bush). Her more recent work from _The Sensual World_ hasn't been quiet as good as those. The video for _This Woman's Work_ was pretty good but not as good as the sequence from the movie _She's Having a Baby_ that the song was originally written for.
