The video shown above that is 'Whose Gonna Save my Soul' - Gnarls Barkely is one i particularly enjoyed becuase of its strange part narrative style and the fact that during some of it you can barely even hear the track. This is very strange for a music video as it draws attention away from the track, but as this is the first of its kind it will bring the artist publicity through the originality of it.
