I'll start this thread off with a pretty obvious choice of all-time worst video straight out of the Stock Aitken Waterman production basement......

The Reynold Girls -- I'd Rather Jack
http://www.youtube.com/wa...Hg7M8qI5m8

So bad, it's laughable!

And BTW, THIS was the video that started the downfall of the PWL empire.

Wang Chung was one of my favorite bands but this godley and creme video SUCKED!

Everybody Have Fun Tonight was a stupid fun song. But the video was freaking horrible, like it was taped with computer virus-infested camera or something!!!

let the music play (shannon)
hearts dont lie (latoya jackson)
yo little brother (forgot the artist)
misled (kool & the gang)
anything by billy ocean, lionel ritchie, and all of whitney houston's 80's uptempo videos.

The Spice Girls -- Wannabe
http://www.youtube.com/wa...ed&search=

As much as I miss this girl band, their debut video was tacky as shyt!

The Village People -- Sex Over The Phone
http://www.youtube.com/wa...Lup8wjbSIo

Almost all of their videos could qualify for this thread. But I believe THIS is the worst one of all, IMO.

rico suave was pretty bad, also ice,ice baby, jj fad's supersonic, the cars that go boom

Sylvester -- Someone Like You
http://www.youtube.com/wa...wJ2T91z724

Too many things are dead wrong with this video:

1. Sylvester is wearing a wig that might have been the same wig that Tina Turner wore in a few of her own videos!

2. A male gay icon is singing about wanting a girl just like Debbie Allen (who guest-starring in the video BTW). For what?!? He was never straight!

Ray Parker Jr. -- Ghostbusters

The song AND the video ruined his career by making him look like a freaking joke.

Speaking of Michael Jackson, I thought the original unedited version of Black Or White was tacky.

SoulAlive said:

i think dancing on the ceiling is probably the worst! was he on drugs??

TonyVanDam said:

Oh hell no! I like that video. It was cool then and it's not bad now.

And I'm not even going to respond to the mention of "Beat It" and "Bad."

Is it because MJ pretending to be a tough guy?

The video by the Army of Lovers(?) "You Spin me Right Round"

Alot of the early new wave vid....I loved the music, but the vids were so damn cheesy!

Prince-Betcha by Golly Wow
MJ-You are Not Alone
Bowie/Jagger-Dancing in the Streets


90% current hip-hop vids (really, when you have seen one, you have seen them all...money, cars, women, party, etc)

Thieves In The Temple.

you want the MOTHER of all bad music videos?

try this: http://www.youtube.com/wa...tvaZS0H_uk

guatemalan bolero jackets, money print leggings, bathrobes masquerading as outerwear, a big lady with a crew cut who looks like she raided rue mclanahan's wardrobe, and jim kerr...all floating in space.

it was the very first video i saw on vh1 classics and after that i was just about ready to cancel my whole damn cable subscription. unholy.

Surprised no one mentioned the grandaddy of all bad music videos - the one responsible for almost single-handedly destroying this artist's career:
