The worst one in that vein for me is Little Girls by Oingo Bingo. It feels like it's trying to be a parody, but never quite gets there and just comes across as super uncomfortable.
It's definitely a parody, but a parody of something so uncomfortable that making fun of it puts a bad taste in your mouth, because you can't really mock it without.. ya know.. remembering that the music industry was (and probably still is) full of pedos, and that such things used to be perfectly acceptable...
Like singing along with Money for Nothing.
I mean, what's wrong with that?
Don't most versions not include the homophobic slur anymore?
It's definitely a satire but also yes very dark. The music video really makes it, for anyone who wants to see one of the most unhinged pieces of media out there in its full glory
That was…
You weren’t kidding. I don’t know how I’d never seen it before. I love crazy music videos, I click through old 80s/90s videos all the time. I guess that one doesn’t make it into many recommendations.
