Tina Turner - What's Love Got To Do With It?

Video- ****
Song- *****

Ummm, It Has... Wait, What Was The Question?

This is a great song isn't it? I can't imagine there's many people who don't like it. It's just a plain classic song, really, is there a need to say why? Since it's pretty much just a given how good it really is, I'll shut up about it now.
The video, on the other hand, or should I say, the hair, is a little over-the-top. Well, a little? More like RuPaul on acid fisting a poodle while making scrambled eggs over-the-top. Why the need to be so big? Probably cause they were like, "She's old. Everybody's gonna turn away in horror if we don't make a HUGE distraction right on top of her head. I KNOW! Let's do the hairy cactus/palm tree look we did for Sideshow Bob way back in the day when he was doing Masterpiece Theater. That look, only more feminine. Kinda bride of Frankenstein but without the streaks. Ok, maybe a few streaks. Oh I give up let's just go watch Dynasty."

New Kids On The Block - The Right Stuff

Video- **
Song- **.5

Oh Oh Oh OH NO

The video starts with a carwreck, and it continues to be a carwreck throughout the entire video. It's definitely got kitch value. I do think Jordan, the lead singer, is a good one and does a great job in the song. Although it seems he does carry the other guys a little too much. One other dude has- what- one line?? And occasionally they all say "the right stuff", and maybe the annoying "oh oh oh etc." is them too. Who cares, though really? It's ultimate cheesiness. The whole thing may not be technically trashy, but the melody of the "oh oh oh etc." is so catchy that it makes the rest pretty dern trashy and again, VERY CHEESY.
You may recall a nasty rumor that Donny, the blond (and brother of Mark Wahlburg) had "relations" with one (a few??) of the others and there were some nasty details which I won't mention which involved pumping 4 oz of semen out of his stomach. Ooops. Well I doubt anybody will ever reveal if it's true or not anyway.
The girls in the video seem to be in ecstasy, or at least faking an orgasm... they must have been paid pretty well. The "dance moves"? Well, let's just say my great-granny could not only bust a move better, but also choreograph her way out of a paper bag better than these goofballs, and she wouldn't have used the ho-down dance they used either.
