WATCH IT: Swizz Beatz f/ Eve "Coolin' (Everyday) (TAJ, dir.)

Blown-out whites, silvery grey scales, futuristic mannequins, Eve and Swizz Beatz all look cool as can be in this throwback clip that updates the "Drop It Like It's Hot" and "Flava In Ya Ear" video model. --> watch "Coolin' (Everyday)"

WATCH IT: Beyonce "Run The World (Girls)"

In some ways this video/song feels more like M.I.A. than Beyonce, except things culminate in an epic dance-off than in the murder of a runaway Ginger.

WATCH IT: Cults "Abducted" (David Altobelli, dir.)

Director David Altobelli delivers a cousin of sorts to the classic Radiohead "Karma Police" clip with a Cults video for "Abducted" that features a lonely road, a body in the trunk and just the right amount of ambiguity. --> watch "Abducted"

WATCH IT: Alex Winston "Sister Wife" (That Go, dir.)

Alex Winston writhes on a couch and grapples with a serpent and a kitty cat (no symbolism there, right?) before things take a turn into Excorcist/Carrie territory with a pool of blood and other signs of a haunting. It's almost as creepy as the thought of a spurned love song from the perspective of a Big Love character. --> watch "Sister Wife"

WATCH IT: Depeche Mode "Personal Jesus (remix)" (Patrick Daughters, dir.)

Even though I'm not sure if witches are supposed to float or sink when puritanical nitwits dump them into the water, I'm pretty sure that it's a supernatural sign if/when the body levitates out of the water. And, I'm also pretty sure this video directed by Patrick Daughters is a pretty inspired companion to this remix of the Depeche Mode classic, "Personal Jesus." --> watch "Personal Jesus (remix)"
