I may be spending a little too much time on YouTube recently...
Never since MTV's Pop-Up Video show have legitimate music videos been this hilareous. Literal Videos turn music videos from established artists that actually (sometimes surprisingly) aired to represent the song when it was newly released, into play-by-play accounts of what is being watched.
Some of the better ones include a rewritten version of Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart" involving "zombie choir boys" and the question of "why do they play football inside?" and the great "Making Love Out Of Nothing At All" from Air Supply with "magic photos" and missing shirts.
Meat Loaf's "I Would Do Anything For Love", Starship's "We Built This City", and the more recent "You're Beautiful" by James Blunt are also worth a few laughs. What's really amazing to think about is the fact that these videos were all considered to not be entitrely bizarre in their content when originally debuted.
