Worst Music Video EVAH

I would like to apologize to my friend Hal for whatever it is I did to him that made him send me this.

Why did YOU pass it on to us! You knew we'd watch it. WHY???

URf. It looks like a cross between cheerleading tryouts and a Richard Simmons video, directed by Bennie Hill.

No, it isn't. Boring and dipsy, but not the worst.

The worst has to be the low point in Leonard Nimoy's career - The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFoytXbjjWI).

I would say "Enjoy!" but you won't.

I need to go soak my brain in acid now.

I've actually developed a soft spot for this atrocity. And then I start picturing He-Man as the lead singer.

Pretty awful. But in the category of Terrible Heavy Metal Videos, I give you Iron Maiden - Run To The Hills (http://youtube.com/watch?v=uXSpHpdRwkU)

They filmed the concert segements just before Maiden left for a tour. The director was instructed to fill in with old footage from indian war movies. The song itself is fairly serious, but the director pulled all his clips from a single 1920s comedy short. The band was furious when they found out, but by then it was too late.

They were a big, BIG hit in the 70s. And Danny is still a major player in the pop circuit.

Unbelieveable.

And yet, it still doesn't horrify me as much as this one does (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qHtkWyNvgU).

That video was shown on one of the UK TV shows about a year or so ago with appropriate commentary from the hosts of the show ... and yes, they thought it was pretty bad too!

GYAGH!!! What is it with Finland?

There's a Finnish metal band called Stratovarius I listen to occasionally, and their vocals are equally atrocious. My favorite line from any of their songs (picture it over a standard 4/4 fast-paced metal beat and heavy guitars)

"I know your name, it's called Mr. Mean
One thing I've learned, you don't know beans"


At least they don't have videos with besweatered prancing space-weenies.

sorry. Still doesn't hold a candle to that one music video which is still used by 3rd world nations as torture - "Apache"

I'd watch this over any rap music video any day.

I assume that you've seen Brian Froud's pressed faerie art?

Here's an example, just in case you've not seen it:
