Not your typical Blog (or Bimbo, for that matter!)
Welcome to the blog of Maureen Smullen of gomodesign.com. This is intended as a fun place for clients, friends and family. There are fun and odd things, photos videos, and really good tips and tricks (for some seriousness).
I LOVE horrible music videos. And I REALLY love this video!
The entertainment factor is incredibly high. Maybe that is not the only thing. I don't know this "group" or anything about them. Probably best that way. The music is classic 70's disco cheese, and "rock" Mullet's abound! (no idea why the buckskins and Indian Tee pee). And the constant, insipid smiling of the Doug Henney-lookalike lead "singer" kind of creeps me out. More bad videos in the Worst Music Video section here...
I am not so sure if EVERYBODY was Kung Fu Fighting. But the weird "choreography" (what the HELL are those guys to the right doing?!!!) is what ends up transfixing me. I had a hard time, again, finding decent clips of this but you get the idea.
Here is Carl Douglas with the classic 70's pop tune, Kung Fu Fighting:
You may think that I have way too much time on my hands. Actually, these thing seem to find me. It is almost like they follow me home and beg to be put on my blog. How can I say no, especially after I have already fed them and they won't leave?
No clue (like it matters) who or what Electronik - Supersonik by Zlad is (some kind of 70's/80's fantastic Eurotrash - they want you to think - but I suspect that is the guy who owns Guido's Pizzeria restaurant in the Bronx)...
I stumbled across this music video by a Finnish duo called Danny and Ami. So incredibly horrible it is one the best of the worst (though several of the Foreigner music videos from the 70's were also very unintentionally funny in retrospect)
Like many of these bad videos, it is the "choreography" and "dancing" that hypnotize me. You gotta love the red unisex Ditto Jeans that all the "dancers" are wearing.
Enjoy, Danny and Ami's music video for "I Wanna Love You Tender"':
