I'm sure MeanGreenStompa and a few of the older vets will agree with this choice. If anything sums up the 80s then it's this video. Jarvis Cocker said it best when he commented that most bands making videos hang around a warehouse in Hull, but these guys go the distance. It's got everything: cocktails, supermodels, yachts, pringle sweaters, the caribbean etc etc. Contest over! They don't make em like they used to

That's not, technically speaking, a promo video, as 'Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds' was never released as a single by the Beatles - though it was released by William Shatner, I believe.
That's from the film Yellow Submarine, if memory serves.
And, since I really should, here's one of mine. We filmed the whole thing in 52 seconds this summer. (I'm the director, not the band. My god, they were all horribly young...)

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

This, watching it at 14 and thinking "I like this kind of stuff, its not popular but I need to listen to more of this so called alternative music" and there's also a soggy hot lass in it , which helps when your 14

I would pick this one but its very NSF, lady parts are displayed . One of the pinnacle moments in UK music TV and my teenage years
See kiddies, there was a time MTV used to actually play VIDEOS!
I remember being a kid, waiting for the "World Premier" of the video.
Not a big MJ fan, but the video was(is) pretty damn cool.
