Contest: Worst Music Video of All Time
Hey kids, let's have a contest! Here's how it will work: We post the worst music videos we can find, one entry per person, and then we have a vote over which is really, truly the worst video of all time.
Rules:
- One video per Orgah. I know, this is kinda arbitrary, but I think it will focus us nicely. If you're free to post ten videos, you just slap them up without thinking—but if you can only have one video, you're going to give it some real consideration.
- No joke videos. In other words, music videos that are intentionally bad as a gag. This rules out classics such as Praise You, The Ding Dong Song, and Electronic Supersonic.
- For neatness' sake, use this format: Musician, Music Video (If you don't know how to attach a link to text, just PM me.)
- After a week or so I'll start a new thread for voting.
- The video that wins will be exalted for all time, and the Orgah who supplies it will be given a lifetime supply of Burger King Crowns.
Of course, now I have to decide between two of my all-time favorite bad videos. What idiot made up the rules to this contest?
Oh, right, me. Hmmm.
Here's my pick (and I'll be exicted to see if someone posts the other one):
Speak the Hungarian Rapper, Stop the War

Re: Contest: Worst Music Video of All Time
La tigresa del oriente Un nuevo amanecer
I dare you to watch it until the end. :cool4:
-
Re: Contest: Worst Music Video of All Time
Ohjaaja - I Wanna Love You Tender
Finnish dancing for the win! Speak the Hungarian is a worthy entry, but the dancing sets this video apart.

Yup, I remembered you talking about it before. I fixed the URL, which worked for me.

I'll see your Finnish dancing, and raise you Hungarians rapping about "I hope my black budders feel da same like me. Yeeh. C'mon. Check dis."
seireikhaan's video is the first one I haven't been able to get through. It's long, man. I'll try again when I'm feeling stronger.
None of these are duds or merely mediocre videos so far. I'm impressed by the sustained, sheer awfulness of the ones we have. Keep up the good fight!

Oh yeah, he's got some truly awful lyrics. Probably 'better' than the plain awfulness of lyrics found in "I wanna love you tender". Though that song has some electronic supersonic style use of English.

Re: Contest: Worst Music Video of All Time
I remember this notable little number from a couple of years ago.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NM_...eature=related
Not only does this groups music video suck, they also managed to butcher a great hip hop classic.
If that isn't a talent for making bad music I don't know what is.

Gah! I did NOT watch it until the end. Got to the middle. You're right, it is horrible. Having rather heavy and not-so-great-looking-but-nevertheless-scantily-clad women is not going to compensate for a crappy song. I have no idea who the women were supposed to appeal to :shrug:. I see no reason why the blokes making the video could not go to a city (yes, a city, as opposed to villages, from which they got those women from) and find women that would actually make the video more entartaining for the hordes of lustful males. That video almost seems as if it was attempting to be distasteful :laugh4:

She has several other videos (similar to this one), and she considers herself a top notch sexy artist.

2:29 is the best part. HAHAHAH! I almost choked with laughter.

Re: Contest: Worst Music Video of All Time
Power Station - Get It On (Bang A Gong)
Catchy song, but bad video even for 80's standards plus a chick who on closer examination is the famous transsexual Tula. :shocked2:
Edit: Note the planes on the wall background picture with the twin towers (0:44). Classy. :no:
-
Re: Contest: Worst Music Video of All Time
Prabhu Deva Sundaram - Kalluri Vaanil
Its an Indian song.
I don't know whether to call the video bad per se - it is absolutely hilarious. Also, make sure to watch the subtitles....they only make the video even more funny
The shere number of people dancing like that unison along with the ridiculous costume changes makes this much worse than most, I'd say
-
Re: Contest: Worst Music Video of All Time
Great song TevashSzat! For some reason, I know that song...I think it's used in an ad here.
Vanilla Ice: Ice Ice Baby
White boy thinks he can rap. Badly. Somehow ran second in the 1990 award for best song, now considered one of the worst of all time.
To truly understand it, you have to watch Jim Carrey do it.

Re: Contest: Worst Music Video of All Time
Tough to pick one, Rem Lezar and Tommy Seebach came to mind. But, it has to be:
Blotto - I Wanna Be a Lifeguard
1:20 FTW!

TevashSzat, this means you may nominate a new video if you like.

Son, this is a competition for the worst music video of all time. Don't be submitting the merely mediocre thinking you can coast through on inertia. We're looking for the worst of the worst, the lowest of the low!

Instead, could I use this version of Prabhu Deva Sundaram - Kalluri Vaanil instead?
This is the original video without any subtitles. I can edit my previous vote and remove the link to the funny version with subtitles.

Re: Contest: Worst Music Video of All Time
I've never been able to make up my mind on Tunak Tunak Tun, it's either the worst video ever made, or the best. I will look around some more, maybe even watch old Beavis and Butthead reruns.
Are we looking for a total fail of both audio and visual proportions, or just bad video concept/implementation?

I think we should look for a complete and epic failure. Not just bad music. Not just bad video. The whole thing should be bad on every level.
-edit-
I just watched Tunak Tunak Tun, and I kinda dug it. It rocks, actually. Not nearly as painful as some of the other entries so far.
Why has nobody nominated The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins yet?

I disagree. The dancing is actually remarkably well done and coreographed.

Like I said, it's either the worst, or the best. I can only assume he is playing air-sitar with those weird hand gestures. I wish I understood the lyrics.
I will look for a more worthy entry.

I'm sorry. :embarassed: Now I feel like cheating... :sweatdrop:
What do you mean by "worse"? La tetita? Papito? Cerveza? I spent quite some time of torture to figure out which is really the worst! Perhaps we should nominate the whole of all Peruvian music videos... :laugh4: they deserve it all!

If you think that video ranks, I dare you to watch the Hasselhoff video, the Tigresa video and the Jefferson Starship video, all in a row.
Then we can talk about Swedish pop stars sticking their heads in boxes. For shame man, for shame.

"La tetita".... I honestly cannot believe that somebody actually thought it would be cool to make a song about... well... nipples (the song is all about how she likes and loves to be breastfed)... :inquisitive:

I see your point there. Are we even sure that's the worst Haselhoff video, much less the worst video of all time? For instance, I would argue that this is a worse video than the one we've been given. Here's Hasselhoff butchering Secret Agent Man.

I somehow figured that "la tetita" surely has something to do with breastfeeding, but thank god my oral comprehension of Spanish isn't that good :laugh4: :laugh4: :laugh4:

All the Hoff videos are great! Especially in "Jump in my Car" Hasselhoff shows great sense of humour. Pretty obvious that he's making fun of his tv serie... Oh and the Indian Song is just hilarioius and great dancing! Nothing bad about it... sorry so far it's a close tie between la tigresa and Wendy... :laugh4: :laugh4: :laugh4:
