Bad 80s Video War: The Final Salvo
Okay, Corey... this is the worst/best I can do, I think. This isn't really a video, so much as a "live" performance. But - I will argue that not only is this the worst song of the 80s.... it may well be the single worst song ever recorded, ever. Ever.
Ever.
Does it count as a bad video? Who knows? There's no cheesy 80s effects, there's no god-awful early MTV cliches. There's just the worst song ever recorded. Ever.
Ever.
Ladies and gentlemen... don't hate me... but here it is: Charlene's "I've Never Been To Me."

How did you ever find this song by this artist? A junior high or high school dance memory?

Hawk,
Would you have wanted to dance with any girl who thought, at 14, that this song spoke to her?
I didn't either.

Since I viewed some of this video last night (I couldn't watch the whole thing), this horrible song is in my head. Please Mudge, make it stop. Maybe posting your favorite 80's video would help heal the damage to my brain from this song. And you are right, I know exactly the kind of girl who would make this her favorite song. And I still don't want to dance with her.

This song is absolutely god-awful.

As the one he dances with I'd like to add...
My brain is melting! Make it stop! Aaagh! And I didn't even play it.

Hawk, you have no idea what you've wrought. Wait till you see what I am working on... and it's all your fault.
Eden, I should make you keep thinking about that song just for posting Bush doing Sunday Bloody Sunday.
Brent, yes. Yes, it is.

Sounds sort of like a broke ass Linda Ronstadt.
There's no way in hell this is worst than Carl Lewis though :)

Mudge,
I can't wait to see what you have in mind. I have some favorite videos which are great to watch but crap songs in my opinion (Girls, Girls, Girls for example.
