Singles
"Nigger"
"Nigger" is the name of Clawfinger's first single. Despite its alarming title, the song has an anti-racist theme. The single was released with two different artworks.
The first music video was shot in 1992. It is black & white and shows grainy images of Clawfinger playing, intercut with the words "understand", "knowledge", "racism", "power" and various catchphrases questioning the use of the title word. The other Swedish version was shot in 1993. It was a more colorful video, which used many of the same live scenes as the first version, but the playing of the group is mixed with videos of military unrest and house fires.
"Do What I Say"
"Do What I Say" is Clawfinger's sixth single, the second from their album Use Your Brain (1995).
The music video was shot in 1995. It shows black-white video of house and a colorful boy, who walks into the house. The song is mixed with a child's voice singing "When I grow up, there will be a day when everybody has to do what I say", and shouting.
"Biggest & the Best"
"Biggest & the Best" is a single released by Clawfinger in 1997. The song appeared on the albums Clawfinger and Biggest and the Best Of. It is about the selfish acts of man, who equates himself to God, and considers himself the Almighty. The main idea of the song is an ironic attitude to people of such a type and its purpose is to criticise arrogance.
The video was shot in 1997. It shows vocalist Zak Tell preparing for the training in a gym locker room. He later appears in competitions with children in basketball, American football and boxing, and wins every one of them. He is sitting at the basketball hoop, and it shows him "biggest and the best, better than the rest". The other musicians are also playing at the basketball field. At the end of the video all three children bring in three very muscular men, presumably their fathers, and point to Zak as the video ends.
"Recipe for Hate"
"Recipe for Hate" is a single released by Clawfinger in 2003 in Germany. It is one of the few sung in a heavy metal style. It contains five songs (some of them are live versions), and also a video for "Recipe for Hate".
Tracklist
"Recipe for Hate" 3:01
"All My Greatest Fears" 4:14
"Get It Off My Chest" 3:42
"Biggest & the Best" (Live) 4:01
"Rosegrove" (Live) 3:46
The video was shot and released in 2003. The film shows the members of the band surrounded by a crowd of girls, playing in a dark room with blinking light and falling fluff. At the end of the first minute the vocalist Zak Tell starts singing face to face with one of the girls, after which she kicks him with a fist. Then some girls come to attack other members of the group but they continue playing until the end.
"Without a Case"
"Without a Case" is a song released by Clawfinger in 2006 as a single.
A music video was shot in 2005. At the beginning, the video shows a boy trying to escape from security but he is caught and then appears in a courtroom. The second figure is a girl, who is a victim of rape. She also appears in a court as a responsible party. When the judge tells a sentence, the plaintiffs begin to exult but the responsible parties aren't satisfied with the sentence. The boy treats the girl a bottle of water. After that, the girl falls unconscious. While the policeman come to her, the boy has a chance to run away.
