I'm in one of those moods. Show me the best music videos where the entire video was filmed in one continuous shot with a single camera. Obviously I expect a lot of Ok Go, since they've pretty much mastered the genre (and that's fine by me, I'm a fan of their work), but bonus points for videos that aren't from the treadmill brigade.

To start things off, I submit "Americanarama" by Hollerado. Not only is it good, but I love the video game references they included. I'm ashamed to admit I didn't realize the one guy was playing Guitar Hero until the third time I watched it. Bad Dusty!

Easy. This one. Granted, I don't know they filmed it in one take, or if there were some very well-hidden cuts.

The You Tubes are blocked at work, so someone else will have to link it for me, but David Bowie's "Heroes" and LCD Soundsystem's All Of My Friends are great ones.

Not the best one shot video, but the best sounding.

Not exactly 1 shot (I suspect) but it's filmed like it's supposed to be 1 shot. It also happens to be one of my favorite songs right now.
