Seven Music Videos Influenced by A Clockwork Orange

Blur

A Clockwork Orange may very well be my favorite movie.  I’m clearly not alone in loving it, however, as evidenced by the uncountable references to the film in all forms of pop culture.  Music, dress, film, and even speech have been influenced by A Clockwork Orange.  Everyone who likes the movie does so for their own personal reasons, but it’s impossible to ignore its influence.

Music videos are one form of media into which the style of Kubrck’s ultraviolent tale has permeated.  Check out seven examples:

Guns N’ Roses – Welcome to the Jungle

Sepultura – We’ve Lost You

Shihad – Pacifier

The Used – All That I’ve Got

  2. Hey just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
    The words in your post seem to be running off the screen in Chrome.
    I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know.
    The style and design look great though! Hope you get the issue fixed soon.
    Kudos
