I love music. I love videos. Those two combined can be a highlight for me. There is a special sort of music videos I really love: One shot videos!

Nice list, but here is another great one:
Xzibit - what u see is what u get
check it out...
Two important omissions:
Sugar Water by Cibo Matto (without a doubt one of the most intricately planned one-shot videos evar made, and most likely the video the inspired Semisonic to do Closing Time)
Mr. Krinkle by Primus! How can you forget this one!
so what is the average cost to have a "one shot" music video created?
Great, great stuff you publish (on all your sites).
