From her 2005 album, The Cookbook, Missy Elliott's "Lose Control" is one of my all-time favorite music videos and today's Feel Good Song of the Day. It also has a great Tommy Lee cameo.  Yes, that Tommy Lee.
I'm not the only one who loved the video either.  In 2005, Missy's video was the most played video on BET and MTV2 and second most played video in the United States.  It was nominated for six MTV Video Music Awards, including Breakthrough Video, Best Direction in a Video, Best Choreography in a Video and Best Special Effects in a Video. It went on to win two, Best Hip-Hop Video and Best Dance Video. It also won a Grammy Award for Best Short Form Music Video, while the song itself received a nomination for Best Rap Song. The video won Best R&B/Soul or Rap Music Video at the Soul Train Lady of Soul Awards and was nominated for The Michael Jackson Award for Best R&B/Soul or Rap Music Video and Best R&B/Soul or Rap Dance Cut at the Soul Train Music Awards. It was also nominated for Video of the Year at the 2006 BET Awards.
