Random videos are like a hand of cards: you can either win or lose, and most of the time, you lose, because the quality of music video channels are in slow decline. MYX seems to be the one channel that shows presentable music videos, but how long will they last?
Note: these videos have no specific arrangement or ranking: it’s the order they were shown on TV, including pauses and intermissions. I don’t know some of the song titles, but I’m not asking your forgiveness.
Christiana Aguilera – she’s how old… 19? 18?… and already she claims she knows what a girl wants and what a girl needs
Lady Marmalade from Moulin Rouge soundtrack – the objective of this video is to answer 2 important questions: “who has the strongest larynx?” and “whose tonsils won’t fall off by the end of this song?”
Boy George, Karma Chameleon – To answer his question : ‘She comes and goes’ because she isn’t so sure of your sexuality, Mr. George PS. nice vests youve got there
Britney Spears Slave for you – In an interview she says “Don’t presume I’m just another dumb girl”, then contradicts this statement in her video by wearing her panties over jeans…
Marilyn Manson, Tainted Love – Is it just me, or is there something in his eye?
Steps – composed of 5 girls, with 2 disguised as boys
Limp Bizkit, Rolling – why is Fred Durst always angry at us? What did we ever do to offend him?
the Enrique Iglesias and Jennifer Love Hewitt video – won the “Overacting in a Music Video” award
Hanson in Mmmmbop – would have been less embarassing had they waited for their voices to lower
Hanson in their newest video – they’re back with lower voices, but they’re still embarassing
Puff Daddy, his song in the Godzilla movie – Living proof that the words “Uh-huh, yieih” can earn you lots of money
Aaron Carter – sings “I’m a big boy now, go tell your friends” but doesn’t look convinced
MC Hammer, U can’t touch this – hammered himself into inexistence, roger-rabitting into a spiral of debt wearing parachute pants
Robbie williams – Whatever you do, we will never forget you were a member of Take That. (“His chin is mocking me”, frowns Mr K, distressed)
Ricky Martin, La Vida Loca – Whatever you do, we will never forget you were a member of Menudo. (“He should be called Jell-O Butt, or Angelbutt” laughs Mr K, recovering from Robbie Williams’ chin)
Michael Jackson, Thriller – how is it possible that he looks more like a corpse now than he did in this song’s video? (hey, i happen to like this video, this is classic. woo!)
all rappers/rapper groups in general – discovered the keys to success : 1. the more “fuck you’s” in your song lyrics, the more people buy your albums 2. the ability of twisting your fingers into letters of the alphabet will lead to gang wars and drive-by shootings and possibly death, and post-mortem albums sales are liable to skyrocket, in this morbid music market
Eminem – I’m just glad I’m not your mother
Linkin Park - Whatever happens, I hope they really believe that “in the end, it doesn’t even matter” becuase that’s what their future holds.
I was definitely hoping for Vanilla Ice’s Ice Ice Baby, or Roxette or Celine Dion’s… well, any of Celine Dion’s videos to play because it’s always fun to critique those three.
