This refined clip focuses on the latter, showing the r&b star enjoying his "addiction" in the bathroom, the bedroom, the pool, etc. --> watch "All Because Of You"

There's only way to shoot a party video and ensure it looks like an actual party. That's right, you gotta throw a real, honest to goodness party. Diretcor Ben Dickinson — newly signed to Black Dog Films — and The Rapture do exactly that in the insanely fun clip for the insanely titled track "Whoo! Alright — Yeah... Uh Huh" Part tribute to a blighted, yet up-and-coming, hip Brooklyn neighborhood and part celebration of School House Rock animation, this video succeeds on nearly every level.
The usual paranoia that might accompany a nighttime stroll through a dodgy neighborhood gets amplified when Beck realizes that his entire reality may just be a construct for a music video set. Chalk it up as another Beck video that deals with the theme of things not being what they seem. -- watch "Nausea" at YouTube or MTV.com
