Anybody notice this happen?

Examples:

"Come As You Are" (Shows swimming baby from the cover of "Nevermind")

"My Name is Mud" (Claymation pig inside soda from "Pork Soda" is breifly shown)

"I Stay Away" (A jar of flies is one of the main subjects of the video, and the album is called "Jar of Flies")

"Heart-Shaped Box" (Meat-Angel from the cover of "In Utero")

"We Die Young" (Man drowning in red water from "Facelift")

"Youth Against Fascism" (The stuffed animals from the art in "Dirty" are breifly seen)

Is this some sort of rule for good bands, or do rock bands all just really enjoy doing this?

-Heart's "Who Will You Run To" sometimes shows the animals on the "Bad Animals" album cover, which is the album the song is on

-in 4 Non Blondes' "What's Up", Linda Perry is wearing a big grey tophat, which is one of the items seen on the cover of the album the song is on "Bigger, Better, Faster, More!"

When the Who mimed stuff from Tommy on German tv in '69 the broadcast used all kinds of graphics from the album cover and booklet that comes with the album.

RUSH-Roll the bones.

she's a rebel from american idiot
"and she's holding on my heart like a hand grenade"

Actually, a lot of Rush videos.

In the video for "What's My Age Again" by Blink 182, the guys run past a nurse, then stop to look at her. The front cover of that album has the nurse on it.

In the "Don't Speak" video there is a shot of Gwen holding an orange.

In the "Breaking up the Girl" video because it had the rose in it like the one on the "Beautifulgarbage" cover.
