What is the worst music video you've ever seen?
So, I was singing a Prince song in my head today that I haven't heard in years and decided to have a listen on youtube.
Well HOLY GOD I was not prepared for the video I was about to see AT ALL! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-Rtx4vgDUo I mean ... what in Christ's good name is this!!??? He's putting petrol in his car, then there's rotating babies of every race, and a chick with a plastic recorder dancing around with people with letters on their stomachs and a woman having her temparature taken and then he's the doctor all along and it really all happened in his eye and there's a humming bird? WTF? ![]() Most odd part at 2.32 to 2.35! Share your worst videos here.

Kings of Leon - Radioactive
Crap song and an even worse video. Just them pretending to be matey with a load of african children for 3 and a half minutes. |

Westlife- Uptown Girl, with the pompous accents at the beginning in the diner and then the entrance of Claudia Schiffer. Then there is Terence Trent Darby with Sign Your Name.

That certainly isn't one of Prince's memorable videos at any rate! Apart from the odd few, I don't find a lot of current music videos all that memorable. However, there were some dire music videos in years gone by!
Funnily enough I was saying to one of my good friends how I thought the video for Ashford & Simpson's "Solid" was pretty awful the other day - it would be one of my contenders. Nick Ashford's haircut is quite funny though but watch out for the poor cyclist around 1:24! A good song but a bad video. Cliff Richard's 'Wired For Sound' is another of my suggestions. Cliff on rollerskates and wearing leather - eeeeeeeeeeek! Mai Tai - History As much as I love the song, I can't say the same for the video to Laura Branigan's 'Self Control.' Crash Test Dummies - Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm Supercar - Tonite Vanessa Carlton - A Thousand Miles A nice song but a bit of a daft video to go with it. Cassius - Feeling For You - however, it is memorable! |

Britney Spears - Gimme More.
This video represented all that was wrong with her life. A sad, drunken mess. ![]() Madonna - Give It 2 Me. That was just embarrassing. What the hell was she doing? ![]() Lady GaGa - LoveGame. The most unsexy sexy music video ever. She tried so hard to do something edgy and underground and sexy, and it failed miserably.:yawn: Beyoncé - Diva. Cringeworthy attempt at being ''Gangsta''.:sleep: I'll be back. They're just the recent ones. BAH HA HA HA!

Some brilliant songs have been ruined by awful videos:
The Cure - Charlotte Sometimes. A girl wandering about in an old manor house. Back in the early 80s there were a lot of attempts for pop videos to tell a story. This one's shit. The Pixies - Velouria. Again, brilliant song but 4 minutes of the band clambering over some rocks in extreme slow motion. Zzzzzzzzzz Sonic Youth - Tunic. Gorgeous song about Karen Carpenter. Video full of random stuff made on a budget of about 5p. What were they thinking? |

This: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6t33yyycIDA
is a horrendous music video. Cheap and nasty make up, chipped nails, overly (and horribly) slutty dancing and diabolical camera work. It looks like it was shot in some crummy motel somewhere, and the singer looks like the type who has visited all the rooms there.... Just awful. |

For some reason DS isn't letting me quote any posts, but to the person who put a link to the david hasselhoff video - hilariously bad! I still have tears of laughter 15 minutes later.
Awful!

Happened to be unfortunate enough to catch Spandau Ballet's 'True' (eeeurrgh) the other day. Utter dreck. Tony Hadley looks about 45 rather than 23, God only knows why kohl was cool back then.

Madonna - Celebration, namely the way she gyrates around in a skimpy outfit and high heeled lace up boots with a guy 30 years younger than her like she's still in her 20s (creepy!)
Christina Aguilera - Dirrty and Not Myself Tonight, I like the songs but I feel its like she's trying too hard to be edgy in both those videos. Beyonce - Check On It and Green Light Britney - Gimme More, enough said. Its a shame because if Britney was at her best when the song was out, the video could've been so much better

Gossip - Standing in the way of control.
Seriously watch it, it looks like the whole thing cost about £10 to make. So horribly cheap. |
