I'll add one to it, which probably didn't get much airplay in the US until December.

Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Kimbra) - official video - YouTube

The song is so unique in its message, and the video conveys rejection and longing well in a unique, raw way (the mingling of naked ugliness and naked attractiveness).
Hear, hear. Gotye has emerged as probably the best pop find of 2011. As for the video it is very effective in it's subtlety and of course the way it shows nakedness in a tasteful and yet arty way.
