Here's where I'll post any links to videos I am particularly fond of at the moment. You'll need I-Tunes to watch these.
The Go Find (I Love that little boat and wish it'd visit me)
Gorrilaz (They continue to impress me)
Devendra Banhart (similar idea to the Go Find video but the darker side)
The Chemical Brothers (Interesting dance phenomenon, no it's not a joke)
Dizzee Rascal (one of the coolest rap videos I've ever seen)
Death From Above 1979 (the punkest thing out at the moment)
Lemon Jelly (a bit dark but reminds me of the old MTV show "Liquid Television")
They Might Be Giants (A video directed by Strongsad? Awesome!)
M.I.A. (why am I a total sucker for this?)
Panjabi MC (I still love this track...video feels like Sabotage by the Beastie Boys)
White Stripes (another oldie but goodie)
Mocean Worker (this pretty much has everything I'd ever want in a video)
Kings of Convenience (which came first? this or Napoleon Dynamite?)
Hank Williams (what a great song)
Morrissey (is it me or is starting to look like Jonathan Winters?)
Ozomatli (socially conscious and killer horns...like Rage gone Latin)
The Hives (I always wanted them to make it bigger than they have)
Slum Village (a "California Girls" for a new millennium?)
Pixies (I admit I must be stupid...I never realized how environmentally themed this band was)
Tortoise (Lisa turned me onto these guys. She has good taste that Lisa.)
Zero 7 (could this crew write sweeter songs?)
The Streets (I'm a huge fan of this guys work)
Jay-Z (swagger, he's tough!)
Bumblebeez 81 (big heads are cool!)
The Darkness (they moved the bar when they released this sci-fi inspired gem)
Fischerspooner (high fashion, higher concept)
Sigur Ros (exceptionally disturbing, powerfully beautiful)

Wow, what a list! I can't wait to click through and see which ones I haven't seen yet.
By the way, there was a special report on MIA on NPR the other day. I guess she is dating the guy who is producing her (I can't remember his name). It sounded like an interesting and productive relationship and the snippets they played of the new stuff was really cool.
I didn't really like her stuff until after I heard the NPR thing. I thought it was totally throw-away music, but it sounds like they're much more deliberate than that.
