Sometimes you want a music video to come equipped with a hard-hitting socially conscious message, and sometimes you just want to watch people go crazy throwing color powder around. To each their own, and to each we dedicate this week's roundup of top music videos.

We won't tell you where to find each of these Easter eggs, but immerse yourselves in these videos and all will be revealed.
