Top 10 Worst Music Videos of the 80s.

Thanks to this site (http://www.thebestlegaladvice.com/), I've been able to view a lot of music videos from the 1980s. Some are legitimately good, but even more of them are so cheesy and so bad that they're just funny. Over the next 10 days, I will present my favourite videos of the latter category. Keep in mind that for the most part I don't have a problem with the actual song. In some cases, it kicks ass. But the videos are truly terrible.



10. Michael Jackson - Bad






The year was 1987. Talented or not, people were beginning to realize that Michael has issues. He gets his nose done again, and he suddenly has cheekbones. Is he wearing make-up in this video?? Hell, it's the 80's...it's allowed! But it's insulting to transvestite men everywhere that he keeps grabbing his crotch. Do a shooter everytime MJ grabs his crotch. Whoever isn't passed out at the end of 4 minutes and 18 seconds wins, I can promise you no less than 7 shots and there are almost certainly some grabs that I've missed or haven't counted. Anyway, just watch the dance routines. They're bad...really really bad. Such a tragedy that the man who brought us probably the greatest video ever made (Thriller) had to go and shit this one out. And that's not even the worst of it...Martin Scorsese directed it.
