The music video for the song "Shake It" was inspired by many fans who created their own versions of the video, 63 of which the band posted as a playlist on their YouTube account.
The song features the four band members as they enter a theater. Once inside the theater, they perform the song while various dancers compete against each other around them. Cameos are made by online celebrity Jeffree Star and vocalist/guitarist Trace Cyrus' girlfriend Hanna Beth as audience members watching the dancers perform. The video ends with the police entering the theater and forcing everyone out.
Metro Station appeared on Total Request Live after the success of the song, serving milkshakes to the dancers in the video.

The official video for "Say (All I need)" was filmed in Paris, France and directed by Anthony Mandler. Filmed partly in black and white the video begins with the sound of church bells waking up Ryan Tedder. He dons a jacket and grabs a small black journal and leaves the house. As he leaves the house he passes by Chris Cornell, who makes a cameo appearance.
The music begins and we see Tedder walking and sometimes running throughout the city near such famous Paris landmarks as the Sacre Coeur, seemingly in search of something, while other members of the band are seen in different locations throughout the city.
Drew Brown is seen riding a Vespa scooter and Zach Filkins, Eddie Fisher, and Brent Kutzle have individual close-ups on a bridge and walking down some graffiti covered alleys. The band is also seen performing the song in an ex-meat abatoir in Paris, now artists apartments. As the music swells and begins to climax Tedder races through the city, enters a building and climbs a winding staircase to the top.
Reaching the top, he steps out onto a rooftop with a breathtaking view of the city at sunset. He then takes the small black journal from his pocket and writes, "just say," ending the music video.
Tedder has given this explanation for the meaning of the song, " This song is about being happy with what you have in life, and not obsessing over what you don't have. Whether it's a person or relationship, love, or success, or even fame."

Cobra Starship - Send My Love To The Dancefloor, I'll See You In Hell (Hey Mister DJ)
The music video starts off with Gabe Saporta and the person in the rabbit costume spending time with each other during a picnic. While Saporta is slicing a watermelon, the person in the rabbit costume takes off its mask to reveal itself as Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy. As soon as Saporta looks back, he is scared off and runs to the desert.
As the song starts, the story is introduced by Star Wars-style text that says that the realization that everything he knew was a lie had convinced Saporta to search for a purpose in life. He can be seen lying on the ground, apparently unconscious, with a snake bite in his neck. ...More

Cobra Starship - Guilty Pleasure
A video for the single was created on the 26th October 2007. The video is lead singer Gabe Saporta with the rest of Cobra Starship just generally singing and dancing with a few animated dance templates at some sort of accommodation, most probably done in their spare time. The video was directed by Victoria Asher, the band's keytarist. The description for the video reads:
So Decaydance / FBR gave us $650,000 to make our new video, but we blew it all on a sports car, so we had to make a home video for 'Guilty Pleasure' on our own one Saturday afternoon. Enjoy!
The band announced in early April, 2008 that they would be remaking their video to Guilty Pleasure. The new video featured producer and Fall Out Boy lead singer Patrick Stump as the band's manager in a cameo role.
On Saturday, June 7, 2008, Spanish version of the remade video was released on the band's YouTube page. The track is titled: Placer Culpable, which is Guilty Pleasure in Spanish.

The music video was shot on May 22nd in Los Angeles. It was released online through Fueled By Ramen's YouTube channel. The video also premiered on MTV2's 'Unleashed', which played the video once every hour for the day.
The video depicts each band member performing regrettable acts at a party (knocking over an urn, using illegal substances, getting into a fist-fight). Shaant stars in the video, sitting on a couch as a married girl attempts to make a move on him. He at first resists but eventually gives in, and kisses the girl on the spot.
However, his girlfriend walks in as this occurs, and leaves promptly. Shaant chases her but gives up, sitting down on a wall looking back at what he's done. Suddenly, the party-goers begin to move backwards, and Shaant is given another chance to make things right.
He turns down the girl on the couch and leaves with his girlfriend. Throughout the video, the band play to an audience three-quarters of the way until Shaant's second chance, to which the crowd disappears.
