Nine Music Videos featuring Lazy Singers

*None of these artists are actually lazy, they or someone else is merely laying down in their music video.

1. Bruce Springsteen - "I'm On Fire" 1986  *This is an iconic Bruce video, the scene when he rolls out from under the car. Yeah.



2. St. Vincent - "Cheerleader" 2012  *I love her "Strange Mercy" song the most, but, this one is pretty good too. The video channels Gulliver's Travels.



3. Murs - "Bad Man" 2004  *Murs has made some pretty great music in the past, as lame as it sounds I stopped paying attention when his hair got like this.

That's not sexy.



4. Atoms For Peace - "Ingenue" 2013  *It's all Thom Yorke-y for sure.



5. Three Loco - "Neato" 2012  *This Andy Milonakis, Dirt Nasty, and Riff Raff video helps to show that there are truly many ways to live your life. It all seems very L.A., I'm from Seattle though so I'm not really sure what that means.



6. Ghostpoet - "Liiines" 2012  *This video has flying stuff like James Blake's "Limit To Your Love" video, cool.



7. Beyoncé feat. Sean Paul - "Baby Boy" 2003  *Beyoncé is the antithesis of lazy, but, she is laying down on the job.



8. The Roots feat. Erykah Badu - "You Got Me" 1999  *This is one of my favorite Roots songs for sure. These people are playing dead, which is not being lazy, just possum-like.



9. Hodgy Beats - "Alone" 2013  *Fortunately for us, Hodgy (22 years old) and his Odd Future friends are not lazy either. They have already accomplished more than most people have in their whole lives.
