I nominate this little gem, Terra Titanic, from Peter Schilling (his 1 hit was "Major Tom (Coming Home")

I like Peter Schilling's music, especially the Error in the System album, but...


all i can say is EEP.

Love this song though

to wendy's horrible mugging for the camera to lisa wearing jeans with her outfit and her "i can't believe i am doing this look"...it's all wrong...

especially the "wtf" twin choreography that never pays off.

^ That's awesome

Can you top these

Get Down Goblin


Baby Blues

Wrong on so many levels.

if you check out my awesome Showdown thread.....you will find a few

also, Color Me Badd had some awful vids

WTF does this video have to do with high school?

Breafast Club "Right On Track" (1987)---The song is great,but the video is 80s tackiness at its worst.Featuring a lead singer who needed a choreographer,three backup singers dressed as chickens and a horrible set,the director of this video needs to be shot.

Donna Summer "Supernatural Love" (1984)---I'm actually kinda glad that this song flopped,because it meant that the video channels didn't bother showing this video very much.

dan is hella cute but i guess we know who the real talent in that band was.

I just don't know what the hell they were thinking!

^^yeah,the Jacksons "Body" video is horrible and really embarassing Ditto for the "Torture" video.It's easy to see why Michael refused to appear in those videos.

Yeah,I was embarassed for Lionel when that crap video came out One of the WORST songs and videos of the 80s.

This thread is not complete without Queen's Back Chat video...
I even like the track but there are quite a few awesomely bad moments, like for instance around 2:45... It's SO.... don't know what the right word is


And here are two videos that were luckily never seen outside of Iceland in the 80s.....
The rock band Das Kapital featuring the cheesy posing of their singer Bubbi, who is the best selling solo artist of all time in his country, believe it or not:


And the longest-running pop group in Iceland, Stuðmenn, with some weird Middle-eastern-influenced chromakey-cheesefest:

THE WEATHER GIRLS IT'S RAINING MEN



the video is SO AWFUL it shouldn't dare be posted



throw in THE VILLAGE PEOPLE too! for AWFUL videos

Oh come on, for 1978 this was a cool video and it's laughs quotient is just off the charts!

Diana had a few really really awful 80's videos... like the song, though!

Considering how amazing her videos are,they should have asked her for assistance/advice on how to make a stunning music video,lol.

What the hell was that supposed to be? Someone's idea of Little Red Riding Hood, after a hit of Ecstasy?

I'm sure Tori would love to burn all the copies of this hairspray-rock gem:

No one's mentioned Prince's 'Alphabet Street'?

SUPRMAN said:

Yeah, that is pretty bad. Every time I watch it, I shake my head and wonder what he was thinking.

I do like them but they always make me laugh


Great lol lol


Don't they remind u of the Village People? lol


My country has a tradition in bad videos and the 80s were no exception. In this video the school girl looks around 50 and the hot guy looks gay lol,


And here is another one


OK not really a video but this 1987 Eurovision performance is terribly funny


And this is another great Eurovision camp moment from 1985


Btw I do love all those songs lol
