We could’ve spent the morning putting up gig announcements, or writing articles, but instead we were web trawling. We found these literal music videos that didn’t make The Huffington Post’s list (or possibly arose after the list came out) that are worth a hearty ROFL at least. Our seven:
Billy Idol – ‘White Wedding’
Radiohead – ‘No Surprises’
The Beatles – ‘Penny Lane’
Avril Lavigne – ‘Girlfriend’
Eurythymics – ‘Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This’
Enrique Iglesias – ‘Hero’*
And the pick of the lot: Men Without Hats – ‘Safety Dance’
* Not enough credit is given to Enrique for resurrecting Mickey Rourke's career, dontcha think?
