I know this topic has been brought up before a long time ago, but I thought I'd bring it back. My submission for worst music video of all time is Eiffel 65 - Move Your Body. It's just cosmically bad. From the crappy special effects, to the outfits and facial expressions, it screams out Eurotrash. I considered the fact that it was from like 1999, but that didn't justify it's awfulness. What's funny is I have no qualms about the song. I'm neutral to it.

"The Bliss Corporation had confirmed that a new Eiffel 65 line-up would make their debut in summer of 2007 but then the debut was postponed. In 2009 Bliss Corporation began to promote work from older bands by subtitling music videos and releasing 'unseen' video footage from Eiffel 65. In June 2010, it was announced on the Bloom 06 website that Eiffel 65 would reunite once more for production of new recordings as well as touring.[2] In July 2010, it was announced from the official site that the group would release a new single October 2010."

So we might get an even worse video, haha.

10/18/2010 10:49:38 PM

I re-fell-in-love with that song when she broke out the harmonica

10/18/2010 11:06:00 PM

I would probably agree with you there in the sense that the video isn't bad, but just completely fucked up and odd. Worst music video? No, the production value is golden, just think they forced all the genres in there though. Reminds me of Serenity with Wild Wild West and IP man.

LOL @ You Spin Me Round. Didn't realize it was such a homo video. His dance movies is like the wacky waving inflatable tube man.

^lets keep it confined to studio made music videos or at least talented people, there's enough bad music vids on youtube already from dip shit american idol wannabes.

10/19/2010 6:34:48 PM

^^ you shut your mouth

that belongs in Best Music Video of All Time

This thread inspired me to find the plant man video, which was a lot easier than I would have thought

The only other person I know to have seen it was this 300 pound redheaded kid in ninth grade PE who we called Big Pete

It was hard to describe something to someone when I had only seen it once and all I could remember is PLANT MAN BUMBABUMBABUMBA

Anyway

10/19/2010 7:12:45 PM

Maybe no one's said it just because it's too obvious, but "Miracles" deserves to be in this thread.

there's enough miracles here to blow your braiiinnsss

^^I wouldn't say that it's a bad music video, it's just god damn retarded. The production value is actually pretty decent and the sfx and cgi isn't that bad actually. The beats ain't bad either, but damn two white rappers dressed up as fucked up white clowns who actually don't know how to rap is funny as shit. I would have thought this was an SNL skit.

10/19/2010 7:53:12 PM

Both the best and worst video at the same time:

now as for that Dead or Alive video

"this one screams homo"

the lead singer, Pete Burns, was indeed referred to as gay in the press for his androgynous appearance, attire, and dancing, but he's actually bisexual, having been married to a woman for 28 years, then in a civil partnership with a man for 2 years, before announcing last year that gay marriage is a farce

[Edited on October 19, 2010 at 9:50 PM. Reason : Pete Burns was the Bill Kaulitz of the '80s
