Within Temptation has a lot of good ones.
I can't post YouTube videos just now, but a few videos to check out when you get a chance:
"Never Split the Party" by Emerald Rose. First, it's an ear worm--it's an awesome song, so you won't mind, but it'll be in your head for a week. Second, if you've ever played D&D you will start telling stories about doing similar stupid stuff. Third, it's Lego stop-motion animation done by a guy who obviously loves D&D. The song is just goofy, and the visuals make it perfect!
"Sleeping Sun" by Nightwish. The new version, at least. It's simply fantastic, and takes the song to a much higher level. It's notable because there was an older version, that's....odd. Not sure why there was a bath tub in the middle of the woods, for example. The new version is a much better fit.
There's a version of Emigrant's Daughter done to an anime video that's very touching. I love the song (my great-grandmother made that trip, so it's not too far removed from me personaly!), and the video editing is superbly done.
Almost anything by Lindsy Sterling. Her Skyrim song is awesome (particularly since it's a duet--watch the video to see just how amazing THAT is!). I really, really want that fur armor!! "Elements" is also really good.
