From laugh-out-loud clips to creative masterpieces—an ultimate collection of entertaining music videos

In recent years, more and more music videos (MVs) have been actively released on YouTube.

They’ve become essential for conveying an artist’s vision for a song—as well as the appeal of the artist and the track itself—to listeners.

In this article, we’ll introduce a selection of MVs that have been especially buzzworthy for being “interesting.”

By “interesting,” we don’t just mean laugh-out-loud funny—we’ve also picked MVs that are fascinating from a visual production standpoint.

From works handled by popular video creators to pieces directed by the artists themselves, there’s a wide variety here, so please enjoy!

From hilarious to creative works, all in one place! A collection of funny music videos (41–50)

Osaka StrutUrufuruzu

It’s Ulfuls’ “Osaka Strut.” It’s a music video that puts Osaka front and center.

It exaggerates both the good and the bad—the kind of image people outside Kansai probably have of Osaka—but you can feel their love for the city throughout.

It’s very Osaka and really entertaining.

Stem: The Daimyo’s Play ArcShiina Ringo

Ringo Sheena – Stem (Daimyo Asobi Edition)
Stem: The Daimyo’s Play ArcShiina Ringo

A song by Ringo Sheena brimming with a distinctly Japanese flair.

It’s amazing how the lyrics are entirely in English yet blend in without feeling out of place.

The music video is also filled with the beauty of “wa” (Japanese aesthetics).

Short dramatic scenes are inserted here and there, and they’ve been released separately under the title Short Film: Hyakushoku Megane (Hundred-Color Glasses).

travelingUtada Hikaru

She returned to the forefront in 2016, and her first appearance on the Kōhaku Uta Gassen also drew attention—when it comes to Hikaru Utada’s masterpieces, this is the one.

You’ll be overwhelmed by its meticulously crafted, highly original world.

It’s no wonder the music video has won multiple awards.

Fashion Leader feat. Soy SauceORANGE RANGE

It’s ORANGE RANGE’s “Oshare Bancho feat.

Soy Sauce.” There are two versions of the music video, and this one is the “Chinese restaurant edition.” None of the ORANGE RANGE members appear; instead, Shiori Kutsuna, who was in the Glico Pocky commercial that used this song, appears.

X XUNICORN

Unicorn “Pekepeke” (NG version)
X XUNICORN

This is UNICORN’s “Peke Peke.” Ebi, the bassist-vocalist, sings all cool and stylized, but when it switches to Tamio halfway through, the music video suddenly takes on a strong comedic tone.

The scene where Tamio pops up out of the bath all at once was apparently his idea.

Golden TouchAmuro Namie

It’s a one-of-a-kind, viewer-participation music video inspired by the title “Golden Touch.” If you’re wondering what “viewer-participation” means, you should definitely give it a watch—ideally on a smartphone.

It’s not just a one-off gimmick; you can feel the richness of the ideas all the way to the end.

My QuestGōruden Bonbā

Golden Bomber, the visual-kei band affectionately known as Kinbaku.

Many of their songs and video works really stick in your memory, don’t they? “Boku Quest” is one of them—the music video itself is presented as footage of a fighting game being played! Kiryuin, dressed like an elementary school kid, plays the game, while a tiny on-screen Kiryu faces off against various enemies.

The video has a somewhat retro Showa-era vibe, and depending on your generation, it might bring back nostalgic memories of childhood.
