Examples of existing products without lip-sync

I know it is quite uncommon for a music video to have no lip sync at all, but if there is a good enough concept and a big enough budget to pull it off, sometimes these types of videos work.

Here are a few examples:

My Chemical Romance - Sing

This video is part of a ongoing story continuing over several music videos. The lack of lip-sync helps increase the tension...in my opinion. The visual aspects of the video more than make up for the fact that there is no lip-sync.











My Chemical Romance - Na Na Na

I like how this has no lip-sync because it sets the scene for the album and the next few videos. The album which it's from (Danger Days: The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys) is a concept album. It's where the band have created a whole world with these fictional characters. So this video was introducing the target audience to the fictional world, and in my opinion, lip-sync would have made it 'cheesy' and would have lost it it's effect.

The Killers - Goodnight, Travel Well

I think this is very well done. The lack of lip sync is incredibly effective in this video. The story itself is enough to create such a good music video. Like mine, it's halfway between a music video and a short film. But it's done in a very clever way.
