You may make the odd mistake, but whatever, meh.

So, IMO, don't feel bad.
Very true. You might pass up a gem here or there, but when you're going a 100 MPH through film after film, that's bound to happen once in a while.

Yuck.

For my money, taking into account song+video, I'd probably take Land of Confusion over everything else. That or Sledgehammer.

YouTube - Land Of Confusion - Genesis

YouTube - Sledgehammer - Peter Gabriel

I think Land of Confusion might have to win out for the 2001 reference

And speaking of music videos, maybe someone here will know this: I don't remember the song or the artist or when it came out or anything, but I remember there being a music video with a female singer and she's walking around a small town and every time she makes it around once, another version of her walks with her, so by the end of the song there's like seven of her walking around and singing.

It's really cool and I have no idea how they were able to make it look the way they did.
