This is simply horribly bad

I challenge you to find a worse musical performance from the 80’s than this one!

yikes.

Might to bleach my eyes and ears

Hahahaha, that Mr. T video is awesome!

I really like the fact that he had ZERO problems with the in-your-face insults (which today would be "body shaming" and a bad thing) until the Your Momma jokes started. Then, well, that's enough.

Go back to personal insults, kids, it's the 80's way...

The very first one:

You know, it's bad of course but Shatner's ego and demeanor make it a fascinating watch. Heck, even Family Guy made fun of it!

Dear lord...

Also found this as a response, heh:

Gee that lot are bad, and it really elevates the artistry of the one band that I have head live that I thought would qualify...
Being a biker this lot turned up at many motorcycle rallies to er play, even with a lot of rum and cola they did not improve much


I give to you England's number one Biker Band from the 1980s Dumpy's Rusty Nuts



This one might need a bit of parental guidance

Well, it's not the 80's but, The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins by Leonard Nimoy

1984:

Second YT comment:

"I'm gay and this is too gay for me."

Anybody remember this ?

I think Spock was tripping on the spores again!

Yup,I do. I'm pretty sure it made the charts here in the UK way back.

I like Mr. T's message though! Some of these are interesting with some of them having their own beauty. Not all of them however. Telly Savalas doing the sort of half monologue Bread song is kind of nice. I watched a video last night of Jack Palance singing "Green, Green Grass of Home" and I really liked it. He's got that way of enunciation and articulation. If you hid away all the visual distraction I hear the sound of a weary and worn, salty character who's been locked away and confined for years, dreaming about hearth and home.

I can't decide if this is horrible or horribly awesome:

For some reason that makes me think of this commercial:

It’s actually a pretty good album, romanticized just a bit of course. I could do without the heavily emphasized movie British accent the narrator (Lee’s daughter) used, though.

Nice one Ali, that took me back

Saw them a few times back in the day. Mostly at Kent or the Bulldog
To be fair I think this is the first time sober
Somehow they seemed a lot better at the time

Dumpys Rusty Nuts is fricking on the same level as Mozart when compared to the Mr. T song I posted!

I had to do it:

Can't argue with Mr. T's message though.

Not sure time frame on this one, maybe late 80s/early 90s. But I give you this:

Well as PM says a shed load better than MrT
They were good at the rallies but I made the mistake of buying one of their albums...

OMG, the Super Bowl Shuffle!

Bwaahahahahaha...

1979, but this has to be the most cringeworthy....

"Video killed a radio star" French cover ...

Wow. Serious WTF going on with that one.


Ok, I think you won the contest.

I always fell down the stairs in painful fits when this did the rounds:







But this one takes the cake:

Maybe a decade later

While waiting for Lexx to come on tv I used to catch the end of a program called Eurotrash, they had some really diabolical acts on it

This is kind of representative of it...

Starts at 2:43

all y'all got NOTHIN...

[Wiping tears away]

"That's jammin.'"

[/wiping tears away]

So, here we are with a standard cut-and-paste formula 1980's pop single. Nothing wrong with it; I like formulatic tunes when they're done well enough.

But when one gives some sort of depressant to the band, which not only gives them lethargy but what can only guess are epic farts, it's music video gold.

Good ole' Leonard Nemoy has never looked so miserable in anything he has ever done.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH !!!!

Unforgettable:

Sorta like a Mongolian version of the Village People.

Mixed with some German lyrics !
