OT: Post your favorite music videos here - any era!

[DomCasual]

I've been killing a little time on YouTube today, reliving some great MTV days. Post your favorite music videos here. If possible, explain why it's awesome - be it nostalgia, off-the-charts cheesiness, great music, etc.

I'll maybe post some later. I don't want to establish any tone for the thread, up front.

If you're into handing out REP, it would be great to REP anyone who posts a video. I heard somewhere that if you have a big enough REP stick, you can actually get to heaven.

This came out when MTV was brand new. I was about 5-6 years old at the time, and remember being entranced by it. Then my mom saw it and freaked the f--k out. Memories....

Love the song, laugh at the gay-pirate 80s theme...

This inspired me to play guitar when I was a kid. Still one of my all time RTFO songs.

Don't come around here, freaked me out when I was a kid. Her being a cake still haunts me.
