I am not sure I have a favorite but this automatic music machine from the conservatoire of Iowa is certainly up there. It is made from parts from the John Deere plant mainly hydraulics components. They seem to recycle the balls going back in the funnels.

The best YouTube music video of all time? It's right here.
This is a fantastic video, both artistically and musically (it has a very Blue Man Group feel to it). But to give credit (big credit) where it is due, this is computer animation called Pipe Dream by a company called Animusic (http://www.animusic.com , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animusic).
No John Deeres where harmed in the making of this movie

Thanks David for correcting me. I have fallen victim of a hoax. I will make better research next time.This is a fantastic video, both artistically and musically (it has a very Blue Man Group feel to it).

Love this version of Rush's 'Subdivisions'!
Excellent use of looping technology.
YouTube write up:
Singer/Songwriter Jacob Moon performs 'Subdivisions' by Rush, live on the rooftop of the Staircase Theatre in Hamilton, ON.
Rush recently saw this video and asked Moon to perform his version of Subdivisions for their induction into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame on March 28, 2010.

Well, I have to second David on Walk off the Earth's cover of the Gotye number, Somebody That I Used to Know, it is just fabulous. And yes they can play it live exactly as in the video (proof below) but Gianni has slight problems keeping his vocal clean, its obviously a real stretch for him. I reckon the original video (100 Million views and counting) was studio recorded (the quality of the voices and guitar sound is just too perfect for anything else) but they really can do this stunt. They say it took 2 days to learn it and 30 takes to get the video in the can.
And the spin-offs are many, there's a great parody below and.... a brilliant mix of Gotye and WOTE showing just how brilliant WOTE were in their cover... note for note, voicing for voicing perfect in pitch and timing. And the visual mix is amazing... Tom will have to tell us how that can be done, seems like a huge job to me.
Parody:
Mix Goyte/WOTE:
Live on German radio... AND LOOK CHAS, THEY ARE PLAYING A CLARKE KENT!! They do exist after all!
