Ok, stop and think about the following ? right now!!
What is the funniest music video you ever saw? All you awesome people who read this blog and never comment, I want your "Comment" on here too. Ok, if it's easier to just e-mail me w/ the answer I guess you don't have to leave a comment. But I really want you to!!!!
The funniest video is about a subject that isn't very funny and has often led to sadness, heartbreak and all sorts of bad things. Henry Rollins (lead singer in Blag Flag) when he went solo had a song on MTV back in the 90s called "Liar". It's funny, he starts out that he is all nice and friendly and would love to be your friend & he especially wants to be your friend b/c you're lonely and need someone.
Then the scene totally changes instead of wearing something nice and respectable, Rollins is nearly naked except for shorts and is all painted (especially the face) GREEN. He's jumping around and screaming and saying how much he likes hurting the person he lied to.
But then he changes his mind and notices that you're hurting and promises to never lie again.
ALL OF THE SUDDEN HE'S LAUGHING, 1/2 NAKED, & PAINTED ALL GREEN AGAIN. (This is the part where I laugh really hard) Part of the humor is that it was shown on the old MTV show "Beavis & Butthead". When Rollins starts screaming, they are both shouting a very high pitched, "Yes, yes!!!!" to everyone of his shouts and rantings. The video is so incredibly outrageous that how can you do anything but laugh.
The other part of the humor is that anyone who is an awful, manipulative liar like the one depicted by Rollins wouldn't be quite so honest. In "Liar", Rollins explains that he feeds off the negativity the sadness, the disappointment that the recipient of lying suffers. No liar will ever be so upfront as to tell you that.
Good video!! Go to Google with the key terms and you can probably download the video.

I read your blog several times and leave comment now.. hehehe..
hm... the funniest music video? I know some about Indonesian's song.. it's a parody song, so it's really funny too.. :-)
When I think of memorable videos, I can't think of memorable funny ones.
What ones do I think of?
"One" by Metallica. It actually made me go out and read a book. In this case, Dalton Trumbo's book, "Johnny Got His Gun", since the footage in the video was taken from the movie version of the book.
"Hurt" by Johnny Cash. Talk about someone laying themselves bare. Also, talk about getting across to different generations. You must be doing something right if you are a Country-Western legend, and even Snoop Dogg somewhat idolizes you.
hey, thanks. I saw the Johnny Cash video myself. He cleans up Trent's song a bit. You're absolutely right about him.
I'll look it up later, but the description sounded HILARIOUS HE HE HE HE HE HE...;-D
