World's Worst Video?

M'kay...with all this jibba jabba about Top 100 lists and Best Music, I thought it only appropriate to look at the underbelly of the Beast.

We all know that some amazing behind the camera talent and incredible film technology got its start in music video, but there sure are people who shouldn't get their hands on a camera...

On the up side, it's good to know that that kung-fu cowboys in the future still have porno mustaches.

It's also nice to see unicorns make a comeback.

If you survive the next six minutes, post your own nightmare videos!

But...wow. You just gotta see it. It just gets funnier as it rambles on...; ▶ Reply to This

Dunno about the cheer squad, though. Looks like something Toni Basil would have nightmares about after eating some bad oysters...; ▶ Reply to This

I expected this to be the World's SHORTEST Bad Video. About 2 seconds after this little perv walked up to that chick and started shaking his junk at her, I expected her to give him a shot in the pills and run screaming for the cops.

Lord knows it's happened to me more than once...; ▶ Reply to This

All I want to know is who thought of the whole disco spaceman look?; ▶ Reply to This

And it certainly wasn't the last time bad warpaint happened to good music.

And this clip is bookened with a bonus Dennis Willis Doppleganger!

Seriously, what's scarier than dides in tights covered in cargo nets???; ▶ Reply to This

Nothing says tender whimsical ballad like explosions, wind machines, fire, guitar thrashing and ten foot hair! It's as if Beavis and Butt-head directed Heart's "These Dreams."

And I like how they had to keep showing Ann singing even though it was Nancy's song. "Hey, I'm the lead singer!" Cat fight!; ▶ Reply to This

Oh gawd, how painfully awkward! And the direct references to "Jimmy you know where to put it" and "my momma said I should keep it as long as I can", oh soooooo bad, not to mention the indoor set mixed with the outdoor clips of the ball park field from the film. We ran across it while viewing ancient SOUNDWAVES shows from 1985.; ▶ Reply to This

I'm gonna pull this thread over to the side of the Internets right now!

Let's narrow our focus a bit, shall we? :)

Howzabout English-language pop music? I'm not trying to be an isolationist, and anyone who knows me knows about my love for other cultures, but it's all to easy for a few jamokes to grab a video camera, make a shitty, homegrown music video and put it online.

I want to see steaming piles of commercially produced crap that someone sitting in a big office at a record label looked at the storyboards and said, "Yup. I'd pay a few hundred thousand dollars for that!"

Besides, I kinda like the monkey-faced, Devo-Donkey look. I might have just found my costume for this Halloween!; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by Steven Kirk on August 26, 2008 at 11:42pm: I guess my first question would be, "Why are you watching videos with dudes in boxers doing splits on the trampoline?"

Video Plus had a customer who was famous for stating what he "Don't want" on his TV. I don't think this video would be for him, either.

The music is actually not too bad, till Rico Suave's and his moostache has gotta jump in. And I'll be honest, I've never been a fan of this whole "Carrot and the Stick" (no pun intended) style of editing.

Jumpin' Jimi Hendrix, don't be showing me hot chicks in bikinis, then toss in random shots of some dude's hairy ass. You just gave my libido whiplash!

Not cool man...just not cool...

Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta go watch somne internet porn to cleanse my delicate palate.; ▶ Reply to This
