As the title says: Find the weirdest 80s music video.


I'll open up with this one! Falco - Body Next to Body.




I think it wins because of the 80's style, German synt hard rock and Birgitte Nielsen trying to her best to be an uber sexsymbol...

Anyone able to better it?

I don't know how weird that video was in 80's standards. I agree that it is truly cringeworthy - but that is not due to the video - that is just because the song is terrible.

Here are a couple of my favourites from when I was a child. Somehow the videos don't seem as weird to me now as they did then, but awesome songs none the less. I was always amazed by how lifeless, but rhythmic everything was in the Oldfield video. Enjoy.







edit: fixed your links...Norl

edit: The songs/videos in question are:
New Order: "True Faith"
Mike Oldfield: "Crime of Passion"
