The best jukebox musical ever made.
Paroles, Paroles from the Ramon Salazar film, 20 Centimetros. Gawd, I want to live in this world! This is one of my favorite films of all time, featuring the music of everyone from Bowie to Queen to Madonna; the visuals are absolutely stunning as well.
It's almost too fabulous.

Dude, that guy at the beginning has a moustache -- kind of the snarly up to no good philanderer moustache. And floating women with frizzy carrot hair in tubes? A totally erotic 1-splash water moment... followed by an ejaculating garden hose as the truck drives away and the screen closes to black... Wait, what's with the jingle jangle drag queen?
Overall, what's erotic about it is its restraint. It never goes to jazz hands... it's seductively slow and calm throughout the music video.
I give it four stars.
