Everyone cites Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen but I think that was the first Big Budget music video and paved the way for everyone else.
The Buggles definitely was not...it was just the first one to be shown on MTV.
The Beatles made promos for Paperback Writer and Rain in 1965 but in my opinion the first one was probably Subterranean Homesick Blues by Bob Dylan in May of the same year. Guy with lyrics written on boards...it cost around a dollar to make (that was for the cardboard)

"In 1910 Alexander Scriabin wrote his symphony Prometheus -- Poem of Fire for orchestra and "light organ". And as far back as the 1920s, the animated films of Oskar Fischinger (aptly labelled "visual music") were supplied with orchestral scores. Fischinger also made short animated films to advertise Electrola Records' new releases, making these films possibly the first music videos."

In 1956 Tony Bennett was filmed walking along The Serpentine in Hyde Park, London as his recording of "Stranger in Paradise" played; this film was distributed to and played by UK and US television stations, leading Bennett to later claim he made the first music video.
