I mean music videos that have nothing to do with the music and mostly just do their own thing and tell their own story.

An example –

Basement Jaxx’s Red Alert seems to be about a meteor-worshiping cult awaiting the arrival of their rocky messiah in some unsuspecting greasy spoon cafe in the middle of nowhere.

Once the meteor crashes into Earth, everyone gets horribly mutated and convulses to the strange rays exhibited by the meteor. The infection seems to be localized entirely within the cafe. The End.

Edit: Please link to a video, or at least summarize the plot.

Edit2: Please actually link to a video, or tell me why the video plot is cool. Come on, it’s just 30 seconds of your time.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wMMuK3Y8rg&t=0 I don’t know if it counts because the lyrics don’t make much sense either, but the video has a giant who votes his crush and her bird boyfriend out of jealousy. The title is a pun because in French "your laces are undone " sounds identical to “your laces are fairies.” And the other lyrics are a bit abstract.
