*** "The Good Life" video is equal parts PerformanceVideo shots of the band in a studio and ConceptVideo segments about a hapless pizza delivery driver: At one point, Matt and Pat start doing a slow motion AirplaneArms run around the studio, and it then fittingly cuts to the delivery driver getting distracted by a skywriting airplane.

Even Rivers, who tends to look serious even in their silliest of music videos, can't help but have a huge grin on his face most of the time.

** The video for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mk5Dwg5zm2U "Africa"]] is a re-creation of the video for "Undone", but with actors standing in for the actual band, including Music/WeirdAlYankovic playing Rivers. Weird Al's 90's-era Rivers costume is pretty accurate, yet also sort of looks like how he dressed in the "White And Nerdy" video. Also, he eventually pulls an accordion out of HammerSpace and mimes the synth solo with it.

* Other music videos:
** The music video for "Hash Pipe", with its fairly surreal concept of the band playing in the middle of a sumo wrestling match.
** Any of the Spike Jonze-directed videos. And anything Matt Sharp and Pat Wilson do during performance segments of even the more straight-ahead videos like "The Good Life".

** The cover of ''Hurley'' is nothing but a photo of [[Series/{{Lost}} Jorge Garcia]].
** The album cover for ''Make Believe'', it perfectly encapsulates the 2000s Emo trend with the band wearing all-black outfits over what looks like the background of a Myspace page.

Added DiffLines:
* 'Buddy Holly', obviously, especially the video, which hung about the band's neck for a long time and convinced Rivers Cuomo that they would only be seen as a novelty band. But the band give fine performances and Patrick Wilson is quite the ladies' man behind that kit.
* 'Troublemaker', from the red album, the joke of which is that the singer thinks he's this unique genius but everything he does is so conventionally rebellious and the song itself is so bog-simple that he comes across as a self-deluding idiot who ends up having a party by himself--which isn't really a party, obviously.
