9. Blink 182 - Always

There's nothing even remotely controversial about the music video for Blink 182's "Always," but it is without question one of the most creative videos of the last 20 years.

Ingeniously, the video is divided into horizontal thirds, with each occupied by one of Blink's principal trio as they combine to form a single person while flirting with Australian pop singer Sophie Monk.

Unsurprisingly, bassist Mark Hoppus called it the most technically complex video the band has ever made, given the precise choreography, filming, and editing required to make the mind-boggling effect work.

And the result is a video that'll have fans constantly coming back and freeze-framing some of the sneakier switcharoos and camera tricks.
