Marillion: Lavender Video

Taking a children's rhyme and turning it into a song called "Lavender", Marillion made a simple and moving masterpiece as part of the "Misplaced Childhood" album; arguably Marillion's best work.

I've been listening to Misplaced Childhood since 1989 and it's great to finally see some videos to go with the music I know very well. The song is timeless, but the video is laughably great. Do yourself a favor and listen to the song first without watching the video, then take a look...

Coffee Percolator

I wish I hadn't heard this. It sticks to the roof of your mind like, well, like something that isn't trite, utter shite.

Ok, so maybe it is trite. But to me, it's a case of people who can make a catchy song with an interesting video, while not taking themselves seriously. Unlike this video, which tries REALLY REALLY HARD not to take itself seriously, and the song sucks too.

Thanks to Neil Gaiman for the link...

...kind of.

The worst music video ever ever ever

I don't care much for the song, but I swear to Dog,

This might just be the worst music video you or I or anyone else will ever ever ever ever see:

Your homework is to watch as much as you can without puking, so we can have a baseline for comparison, since this is the Bloodrayne of Music Videos. Tough it out, because it just can't get any worse. (Well, to be honest, a Kid Rock video could be worse, but thankfully, noone ever sees those.)

Jim, I am terribly sorry for you that Debbie Harry is connected in any way, shape or form to this video.
