Worst, worster, worstest music videos
-
s-p has a candidate for the worst music video ever, and he may be right (check it out HERE).
But are you ready for some juicy Bollywood goodness? It’s not in English, but when you see those big-budget production values and that gripping story line, you’re sure to say that some things transcend the boundaries of language.
But it’s hard to decide. Maybe we really need to hand the honors to this melodic interlude from Finland:
So many choices!

Those are great! You’re right, there are soooo many. I wonder what people think when they look back on those. I had a client who was rich enough to make a an action adventure “James Bond” kind of movie with himself as the star. It was like a “C-minus” production but he kept copies of it in his office and handed them out. Lord help me to see myself clearly.
Makes you wonder. Think of all the C-minuses out there. Occasionally, they’re SO bad that they become famous for their awfulness (like these two and the one you had, because they’ve all had millions and millions of hits on YouTube). Everyone’s out there having their fifteen minutes of fame, I guess, and leaving the debris from it around for someone to post on YouTube.
Oh dear!
I watched the Indian Superman one and found myself unable to stop it. I was mesmerised. The thing is hypnotic. You just get drawn in by the sheer awfulness of it all and it’s impossible to break away.
Then I saw the Finnish one and thought it was fairly unremarkable, until I found myself laughing uncontrollably.
I think I need to go and talk to the cat again. She’s calming and restores equilibrium to my life.
I agree. It’s all fun and games until someone gets hurt. I ended up watching the Superman video about four times out of that hypnotic fascination with badness, and I actually got that molar-jarring high-pitched tune stuck in my head — and that’s without understanding any of the words except “Supermaa-annn.”
I somehow had the presence of mind to avert my eyes from the entire Finnish video (which I’ve seen before), and so I escaped having that fight for airspace with the Indian one.
Could you put your cat on a flight to Missouri? I promise to give her right back when I achieve equilibrium.
Here’s one of my favorites — someone took the video of “Eclipse of the Heart” from the 1980’s and changed the words to describe the bizarre action in a way that makes the badness of it really clear. Enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lj-x9ygQEGA
