Suggesting a song isn't usually good enough. I could suggestion hundreds of songs I think are awesome and could make a good video, but without the anime suggestion it'll leave people wondering. And I, for one, don't think the song you recommended is a very good song. :? Just my opinion.

I've got a good song: "Long Lost to Where No Pathway Goes" by Summoning. :?
Kusoyaro: We don't need a leader. We need to SHUT UP. Make what you want to make, don't make you what you don't want to make. If neither of those applies to you, then you need to SHUT UP MORE.

Off the top of my head…

The Music (that’s the name of the band)
They have some really high energy stuff. Every song on there album is a celebration.

N.E.R.D. – Tape You
This song would fit really well with a video game AMV.

At the Drive-In – One Armed Scissor (or anything else from Relationship of Command)
They have 4 videos made out there stuff already, but the songs are badass enough for some great action vids.

Jay-Z – Dirt Off Your Shoulder
I don’t know why, but I would love to see a really sweet DBZ video made from this song.

Kylie Minogue – Burning Up
Coldplay – Everything’s Not Lost
The White Stripes – Ball and Biscuit
Stay Frosty

For a darker amv:

The Misfits - London Dungeon
Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
Bauhaus - Bela Lugiosi's Dead

For a bitter-over-my-failed-relationship amv:

Nine Inch Nails - Sin
Nine Inch Nails - Kinda I Want To

For Princess Mononoke:

Jethro Tull - Hunting Girl (i might try this one myself, but go ahead and do your own - each interperetation will come out differently, and it won't be like one more Linkin Park/DBZ video)
Iron Maiden - The Clansman

For a Samuri/Traditional Japanese looking video:

Anything by Kodo (an awesome taiko drumming group)

For something really happy:

Simon and Garfunkle - 59th Street Bridge Song (a.k.a. "Feelin' Groovy")

For something kinda odd and funny:

Pink Floyd - See Emily Play
The Beatles - Rocky Racoon
The Beatles - Bumbalo Bill
Jan and Dean - Two Girls for Every Boy (Love Hina, maybe)
Bob Dylan - Subterranian Homesick Blues (Bebop, maybe)
Devo - Speed Racer
The Dropkick Murpheys - Irish Drinking Song
The B-52s - Rock Lobster

Longer pieces of various moods:

Pink Floyd - One Of These Days
Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond
Iron Butterfly - In a Gadda Da Vida
Black Sabbath - A Bit of Finger, Sleeping Village, Warning
Arlo Guthrie - Alice's Restaurant (a challange to any who dare take it)
The Beatles - Abbey Road Medly (the b-side of Abbey Road)
The Doors - Ghost Song

Because the Beatles are kinda scary:

Run For Your Life
Maxwell's Silver Hammer
Happiness is a Warm Gun
Helter Skelter

Because Trent Reznor isn't always scary:

La Mer
The Great Below
Adrift And At Peace

And a few others:

Dire Straits - Six Blade Knife (Bebop, again, perhaps)
Devo - Freedom of Choice
M - Pop Music
The Grateful Dead - anything from American Beauty or Workingman's Dead

Well, I CAN make amvs (not necessarily great ones) but because I have no specific ideas for this song I'll list it:
Fixin' to Die Rag by Country Joe

It's pretty silly for a song about death and the Vietnam War. Kinda parody-ish.

Call me silly but I'd like to see Moonlight Dancing done. this is my reasoning; I have seen a lot of AMV's done to dancing music, this one is kinda sexy, but I thing any moonlight scenes would probably work. Another song I'd like to see is Miss Otis Regrets as performed by Bette Midler. These are the lyrics


"Oh, hi! A-heh heh! Is Miss Otis in?"
"Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today."

Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today, madam.
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today, mmmmmm.
And she's sorry to be delayed,
but last evening down at lover's lane
she strayed, madam.
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today.

When she woke up and found
that her dream of love was gone, madam,
she ran to the man
who had lead her so far astray.
And from under her velvet gown
she drew a gun and shot her lover down, madam.
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today.

When the mob came and got her
and dragged her from the jail, madam,
they strung her up
on the willow across the way.
And the moment before she died
she lifted up her lovely head and cried, madam.
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch.
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today.

If you're looking for suggestions, Dr. Demento's Boot to the Head for DBZ. I don't have the source footage or motivation to pull this off.

Jethro Tull - Hunting Girl (
:shock: You familier with what that song's about? An H-vid I can see, but Mononoke Hime? Hmm.

My Song Suggetions:
CCR - Bad Moon Rising (An old-school VHD AMV? That'd rock...)
Jethro Tull - Broadsword (Record of Lodoss War would ROCK to this)
Men at Work - Land Down Under (My studio tried to do a Love Hina one to this, featuring Su. Utter failure.)
Various Artists - Any 007 theme except Moby's (Lupin the Third would rock, especially a Fujiko-centric Diamonds are Forever)
Boom Boom Satellites - Fogbound (Riding Bean, anyone?)
Elton John - Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting (Any action anime would be cool)

Those 'r' my thoughts!
