Songs With Awesome Lyric Videos, Vol. 1

A short time ago, a "lyric video" was just what it sounds like. A video displaying to the lyrics of a song with the song playing in the background. Then artists started taking "artistic liberties" with the idea and made the lyric video into an art form in its own right. What follows are some of the best examples of this alternative, yet equally entertaining format of music video –– the lyric video. And there are more where these came from. Two sets more, in fact.
