The 10 Best Rock Music Videos of All Time, Ranked

Today, when your favorite artist puts out a new music video, you can go to YouTube and watch it as often as you like. This wasn’t always the case. In the days before the internet, you had to turn on MTV and be patient, waiting and hoping for the video you desperately wanted to see to show up on your TV screen. In 2026, MTV might be a thing of the past, but music videos aren’t, even for rock and roll, which has been declared dead so many times. Whether it be huge bands from the 80s, or smaller acts from the 21st century, these ten songs and the videos attached to them will live forever as the best of the format.
