While I do listen to music, it's with musician's ears, but I understand the general public does not.
I don't need to watch a video, as it interferes with the deep listening and analysis of the music. I don't even need to hear the words until everything else is digested. Until I have absorbed all the parts and how they work with each other to create "the whole", the words are just meaningless articulation of the melody. But I'm weird that way.
An unusual or attractive video might catch my attention for one viewing, but visuals that aren't the band playing always compete with the music for attention, so once is enough.
I am a professional musician and an entertainer, so I understand that most people want to hear the song and be entertained with their eyes as well. That's why videos are a hit.
On the gig, we play music and do our best to entertain as well. Adding some entertainment to the gig makes the people happier, and happy people come back to listen/watch again and again.
Also, there is an art-form to making videos, and I suspect a videographer would pay more attention to the video than the music. That's because he/she watches with videographer eyes.
