The nominees for the 2016 Video Music Awards are officially here, with Beyoncé in the lead with 11 nominations for her stunning visual album Lemonade.
And while, yes, Lemonadeis a masterpiece, there were plenty of other eligible music videos that got no love from voters this year. Here's just a few that they forgot this year.

Halsey recruited Teen Wolf heartthrob Tyler Posey for a '50s-inspired love tale that takes an unexpected and controversial twist. Oh, and it's really pretty to look at, too.
Lorde had never played Seductress until "Magnets," a video that's as simultaneously dizzying and sexy as a drunken hookup with your ex. And damn, does she play the role well.
Radiohead's claymation video for "Burn the Witch" -- the lead single off A Moon Shaped Pool-- is a complex and strange little thing and, apparently, a pointed statement on global politics inspired by the beloved U.K. children's television series Trumpton. In other words, it's a Radiohead video at its best. Sure, it doesn't really fit into the VMAs crowd, but honestly, someone should get some credit for effort.
"Where Ya At" is worthy of a nomination for DJ Esco and Metro Boomin's freestyle dance moves alone, one of which inspired football shade that is also worthy of some sort of football shade award. But even without that, it's a rap video at its very best and most lavish.
The Kills announced their first album in five years in a particularly badass manner with "Doing It to Death," a mesmerizing thing that makes a funeral procession look fun as hell. Surely if Coldplay's rather problematic clip for "Adventure Of A Lifetime" could get a nomination for Best Rock Video, "Doing It to Death" deserves a shot too.
Sure, the "Out of the Woods" video isn't all that exciting at all. Not much happens, but there are some wolves so that's pretty cool. But if we've learned anything since 2009, it's that MTV loves itself some Taylor Swift, so it's a bit surprising the clip isn't up for anything. Maybe MTV was at the #TaylorSwiftIsOverParty too?
"Most of the pop videos I’ve seen that have any male and female interaction are usually centered around a romance, and that’s great, I am all for romance, but let’s face it there are a lot of other sexualities and identities that are well deserving of some shiny pop video love," frontman Olly Alexander wrote in a Facebook post announcing the "Desire" video. The final clip presents a beautifully weird alternative to the traditional guy meets girl love story.
English singer Anohni used the music video for her Hopelessnesstrack to send an equally potent message on violence and warfare. Starring a crying Naomi Campbell, it delivers a raw and real message, and it's dramatic without being over the top.
