Here Are Rage’s Top 50 Videos of 2014

Arbiter of cultural importance and beloved 2am comedown program rage aired its Top 50 special yesterday. All of it was voted by viewers, which means that whichever clip really spoke to you between beers 11 and 12 on some random Saturday hopefully made the cut.

Unsurprisingly, Sia/Daniel Askill‘s ‘Chandelier’ took out the top spot, but in a healthy nod back to the ’90s when rage was all about the headbanging, there were no less than three hard rock or metal videos in the final ten, including Queens Of The Stone Age (who even beat out Taylor Swift), The Amity Affliction and Slipknot. Well done, thrashers. 
Here’s some of our favourite clips from the Top 10.
