120 Minutes is a tumblr page put together by a fan of the long running MTV alt-rock show, with links to dozens (at least) of videos from the show's heyday. There's no search nor sort that I could find, but the site makes for fun browsing for fans of that particular musical era.

Chicago based designer & music fan J Tyler took it upon himself to craft a music video for The Arcade Fire song "
My Body Is A Cage" using clips from the classic Sergio Leone film Once Upon A Time in the West. The clips evoke the elegaic, reflectively somber beauty in the song remarkably well - so well that the video reached the attention of someone in the Arcade Fire's camp, who emailed Tyler and requested his permission to
post his work on their official site. If you have the bandwidth, I highly recommend
this direct download link to a high-res quicktime version, it's much, much better than streaming flash.

Long before 2006 you could probably make a convincing argument that the music video has outlived its purpose; however, musicblogger docopenhagen's list of the
top 50 music videos of 2006 has some excellent inclusions, and hopefully something for even the most jaded viewer.
My threefavorites.
