Orignal MVs usually work the best, kind of... except snares sound funny / missing

Too many details lost with rock/metal or beats heavy songs

Snare sounds funny in raps... in fact, many parts sound funny lol. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVkUvmDQ3HY (Eminem - Without Me) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYOjWnS4cMY (Childish Gambino - This Is America)

It's not able to cut certain part of the vocal due to the way it mixed.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5anLPw0Efmo (Evanescence - My Immortal)

The result from concerts MVs are usually not as good.
