Top 10 Music Videos with the Best Storyline

The Top Ten
1 A Beautiful Lie - 30 Seconds to Mars

Jared makes amazing music videos. This music video, although it has a story told in 5 minutes, the scenes are much better edited and show much more character development than all the very choppy, irrelevant, and quick scenes full of weird filters that Jared had in Suicide Squad.

Mars makes the most powerful videos ever. What I like about their videos is that they always convey a certain message. They definitely deserve the number one (and two) spot.

2 Breaking the Habit - Linkin Park

The storyline and animation are truly amazing and make this video deserve the number one spot. The message is really deep since it relates to Chester's former substance addiction. This could probably even be the best music video of all time, and it's definitely Linkin Park's best music video.

LP Soldiers, unite!

3 Hurt - Christina Aguilera
4 The Power of Good-Bye - Madonna

It's so sad, but it tells a great story. Madonna is the queen of pop!

5 Bring Me to Life - Evanescence

It's a good song. The song matches the music video, and Amy Lee's vocals are very well done.

6 Bad Romance - Lady GaGa
7 Tears Don't Fall - Bullet for My Valentine
8 Beethoven (I Love to Listen To) - Eurythmics
9 The Unforgiven - Metallica

This is one of the best songs ever made.

10 So Far Away - Avenged Sevenfold
The Contenders
11 Youth of the Nation - P.O.D.
12 Take a Bow - Madonna
13 Bad Girl - Madonna

All of Madonna's music videos are unique in their own way, and Bad Girl is not Madonna's best song or music video. But the concept, execution, and direction of the plot is applaudable.

I thought it was a soundtrack. It looks like a real movie. Brilliant video!

14 Fear and Loathing - Marina and the Diamonds
15 The Kill - 30 Seconds to Mars

Beautiful song with an amazingly put-together storyline and is incredibly thoughtful with how it's placed. Truly an amazing tribute to the original storyline.

16 Because of You - Kelly Clarkson

Got a good value on this music video. Growing up with a mom that was really so weak and couldn't stand on her own. She grew almost like her mom, realizing that in the end, she does blame her mom for everything.

17 November Rain - Guns N' Roses

Such a sad storyline, but very powerful. My dad always watched it, and he told me he wanted this for his funeral. Now I understand it may be from the dramatic effect of the music video. It's purely beautiful.

Axl Rose in a wedding ceremony with his wife, band, orchestra, and other known pals. They enjoyed the wedding and the honeymoon, and then it just goes to November rain, having his spouse die and being buried. A nightmare.

This is classic music with a great music video. This should be number one.

18 The Diary of Jane - Breaking Benjamin
19 Stan - Eminem

This should definitely be in the top 5. Loved the concept behind the video! And to some extent (apart from the obsessive and psycho part), I'm sure a lot of us can relate to the storyline.

Man, this should be higher on the list. It has a disturbingly crazy awesome storyline. I felt like I was watching a movie. Eminem is a musical genius.

This should be in the top 5, man. I mean, just watch the video. It really has a storyline. Peace.

20 National Anthem - Lana Del Rey
21 Cool - Gwen Stefani
22 The One That Got Away - Katy Perry
23 Falling Away From Me - Korn
24 We Belong To The Sea - Aqua
25 All the Things She Said - t.A.T.u.

Lena Katina and Julia Volkova are the best.
