The Night Of Fire video is NOT the original one :/ It's the "para para" version (showing how to dance it). Please review the original }:D
My apologies!!! Thank you for the correction 🤘🤘
@@BecomeTheKnight Please also review the music video of Tron Song from Thundercat as part of the same subject of this video }:D
And he was one of the first people to truly appreciate Black Sabbath back in the day 🤘🤘
I hope Christopher Lee rises from the grave and copyright claims this video and gets all the ad revenue he rightly deserves.
I wouldn't put immortality past sir Christopher Lee. Surely he was just done with everyone's shit and went to rest for a bit.
@@stugeh Rightfully so
Sir Christopher Lee is a demi god 🤘
The LOTR story about him talking about the sounds men make when you stab them is still one of the greatest things I’ve ever heard
*Sir Christopher Lee
I love that Christopher Lee was a fan of symphonic/power metal lmao.
RIP Christopher Lee. He was one of the greatest actors out there.
Sir Christopher Lee truly is an absolute God.
Christopher Lee led an amazing life, he played Dracula tons of times, He was Scaramanga in the man with the golden gun, Count Dooku in Star Wars and he was also a ww2 vet who hunted nazis
He also had a pretty high security clearance and in an interview, the interviewer kept pushing him to tell her something that no one else knew. He leaned in and whispered "Can you keep a secret?" She said yeah, and he sat up and said "so can I"
@@FFVison
I mean, what's scary is he gave Peter Jackson a lesson in what happens when a person is stabbed in the back.
Jackson wanted Saruman to scream when Grima stabbed him, but Lee refused. He told the director that when a person is stabbed in the back, the air suddenly leaves their lungs, resulting in a sound similar to a sigh.
The fact that he knows shows he either saw it happen several times or had to do it himself. Unless the documents regarding SAS and SOE operations during the Second World War are declassified by the UK government (which is unlikely to ever happen), we will never know the extent of Sir Christopher Lee's wartime actions.
this is copy-pasted from a comment under the dog police video:
Dog Police was a joke side project of a trio of very accomplished jazz fusion musicians from Memphis, TN called the Tony Thomas trio. It was something they did to blow off steam in the studio that sort of became its own thing for a while. They were basically trying to sound like strange combination of Devo and Frank Zappa.
The Tony Thomas Trio is still around (though I think Thomas is the only original member left) and their music (which is primarily traditional jazz) can be found on youtube.
Devo and Zappa combination I have to check this out
Didn't they win a make your own video contest on MTV?I'm 50,and I remember this,as a kid.The hook was actually taken from the theme from Spidey Super Stories,featured on the Electric Company 70's show.
@@scottmitcham6003 Yeah, they totally did, I think. I do remember watching MTV Basement Tapes when I was super little with my dad. My mom used to work 3rd shift, so he'd let me stay up late and watch stuff she wouldn't let me, lol. But yeah, Basement Tapes was a contest where local bands could send in their music videos in an attempt to get it into regular rotation. I am gonna have to check out the Electric Company thing now, heheh. Glad to see I'm not the only dude who knew about this gem of a video.
*New drinking game*
Drink every time when Mike uses word “cringe”.
*fucking dies*
you'll end up in the hospital getting your stomach pumped empty xD
In my opinion, Rush is one of those bands that doesn't need a music video, their music to me is the reason why I love Rush so much. As for the music video, coming from a huge Rush fan, it is kinda cringy but I do love the song.
Well, actually nobody would "need" a music video, it is just a very common way to promote bands, no matter which kind of music. I like that Rush video, it fits their goofy sense of humour - and they did WAY more cringy stuff with those short movies on their later live Blu-rays... ;)
@@Ray_2112 you're right about that 👍👍👍
I am sure they hated the whole music video trend. The 80's were full of stupid videos anyway, it is easy to add one more. Amazing band though - very good music and excellent musicians.
I never really thought of Holy Diver as cringe. I found it kinda badass. Just something about Dio with a sword fighting enemies that makes him seem even cooler. RIP
It’s Ronnie doing Ronnie shit. If he isn’t wielding a sword then he ain’t doing it right.
Stop trying so hard man, It's cringe. I love the song though.
Dio wielding a sword is still badass no matter what
The guy who made this video is cringe
It's Dio he can make a song about rainbows and fairies and make it sound badass
Yeah Time Stand Still is pretty silly but I saw a comment once that said "No special effects were used. Rush can actually fly" and I fell in love with it
That's how to sell it properly lol.
Of course he has the whiskey. It should be the mascot of the channel
It isn’t?
No. Sober Mike should be THE mascot.
Waaaaaaa is it not Waluigi?
It’s like Julian
He should get a whiskey sponsor
15:46 “but I guess can understand what he was going for”
16:06 “it’s hard to understand what they were trying to go for. “
Pick one dude😂
I guess it was hard to understand but he managed it in the end.
I'm dissapointed Lick it up by Kiss didn't make the list. A part two maybe, please?
I agree. Also Faith no More's Everything's Ruined
@Andy Salter I looove Kiss. But I laugh every time I see that video😂 Sorry not sorry
Faith no more's keyboardist band, Man on Man "daddy" too cringey for CZcams
Ha. I just commented the same thing. I love Kiss too, but wow. "Lick it Up" just hurts
That music video is god tier cringe. Gene Simmons looks so immensely creepy without the makeup and Vinnie Vincent looks like a girl in it.
Christopher Lee was a 93 year old doing metal, give him some credit
But what about Christopher Lee as Count Dooku
He sheds the blood of the Jedi men! He sheds the blood of the Jedi men! He sheds the blood of the Jedi men!
@@matthewroberts3125 he sheds the blood of 4000 Jedi men!
What about the droid attack on the Wookiees?
Not gonna lie, I thought the Chris Lee video was gonna be the Rhapsody of Fire mucus video with him being a narrator lol
Or scaramanga. The man with the golden gun.
Lee's Dracula came out in 1958. And it's a great Hammer horror film!
Jesus he lived a long ass time
The music video of Separate Ways from Journey is like a bunch of dads got together and decided to make a video for their favorite band. And i'm all fucking for it, i love how absurd that video is.
Putting the music video of Bewitched anywhere other than SS should be a crime on its own. This is a true masterpiece that expresses a truly fundamental sentiment of existential dread and a poignant commentary on Scandinavian society in the 1980's
No but seriously, this shit is absolutely hilarious and dated in a good way. It is very sincere, they did with what they had on hand and they tried to make the best thing they could with it and I respect that. Plus the fact that the song kicks ass is a good plus, if anyone is interested in Doom Metal they should listen to it, it's a masterpiece of the genre
Friday doesn’t count. The video was done by an entrepreneur who started a business where kids with rich daddies who have daughters living a dream of being a pop/video star. Pay your money, pick a song, video is shot and presto, little Tiffany is a star! Therefore, you can’t really count Friday as a serious effort.
I just watched the jagger/bowie "silent" video. Thank you.
Kinda surprised that you didnt put “ What does the fox say” in this video
This is a surprisingly scientific look at cringe music videos. Leave it to Mike to make the most high class tier list video for the most low class songs. This is why I love this channel.
If Miracles by ICP isn't here, this list is incomplete.
Fuckin magnets! How do they work?
@@sweettea-ms7ex ohhh man,you beat me to it!!! I had a friend that was a clown posse guy at my last job and I'd always sing that part when we were cooking and he'd be like "shut up dude"😜
This is the cringiest music video because you put in every cringiest music videos together in one place. Let that sink in.
YOU BECAME THE VERY THING YOU SWORE TO DESTROY!!
Congrats you unlocked 100% power of your brain
I will not let that sink in. (he's got a shifty look to him)
At first I thought Journey - Separate Ways.
But there are two that are much worse.
1. Tommy Seebach Band - Apache (Official Video) / The Shadows Cover
2. David Hasselhoff - Hooked on a Feeling
But most of the '70s-80s were awful ... like letting a bunch of kids in a candy factory and then saying do what you want.
I'm surprised that you didn't have Olivia Newton John's music video for Let's Get Physical up there 😂
Isn’t it part of a movie? Or I’m getting confused
@@santiagoguevara8579 I don't think so
Rebecca's Sweet Music it isn’t, I was confused by maniac of the movie flashdance
Lmfaoooooo that Jake Paul part killed me
Honorable mention to “Let’s Get Rocked - Def Leppard” & “Land of Confusion - Genesis”
Hey let’s get rocked is not cringey. It’s dated, but not cringey
Land Of Confusion is in no way cringey.
I love the fuck out of Land of Confusion. They got the Splitting Image crew to create the video but it is clearly from the 80’s.
4:45
*talking about an Olympic athlete*
"He injects random shots..."
🤔
I was just thinking how we have enough CZcamsrs, but your channel won me over. You fill a void that we guitarists need on CZcams.
I subbed on your rebuttal to a Prog Rock critique. You nailed everything right on that one 👍🔈🔉🔊
I’m so happy Bewitched was included, the image of them all stomping about like that is one of the dumbest funniest things that’ll just randomly pop in my head and get a chuckle out of me regardless of how I’m feeling.
SOMEDAY LOVE WILL FIND YOU, BREAK THOSE CHAINS THAT BIND YOU. ONE NIGHT WILL REMIND YOU HOW WE TOUCHED AND WENT OUR SEPARATE WAYS.
"On a scale of 1 to 10, Dog Police gets a 1 and 10." - Mike
"These go to 11"
Now I have to listen to Christopher Lee's album, which I had no idea existed until now.
He has three albums and has worked with rhapsody of fire
Yeah he has a bunch of symphonic metal albums and they're awesome🤘
The magic of the wizard has to be one of the best imo
I watched a lot of your videos and i agree with most of your music opinions on them, but i searched for a video of you talking about my favorite band, scorpions, and i didn't find one, may you share your opinion about them with me?
YOU ARE BEWITCHED!!
It would be interesting to see an S-F Tier list of your favorite videos, or those you think are the absolute best quality in production, storytelling, choreography, ect. For instance, I was mesmerized by Michael Jackson videos as a kid, and I'll always love them. Rock and metal does have some pretty amazing videos, and I'd love to hear your thoughts :)
Not too harsh on Rebecca Black’s “Friday” video...........and.....Released this video on a Friday? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔. Hmmmmmm. Secret fan? 😂😂🤣
Edit: Oh, hell. The Darkness. I love them. 😍😍😍😂
The inclusion of Carl Lewis just reminded me of his rendition of the star spangled banner. Oh God!
I’ve been binging all your videos for the past week cuz I look at music the same way you do and I’m super judgmental with other people’s taste. I’m so surprised “Wrecking Ball” wasn’t on this 😂 and that “I Believe in a Thing Called Love” was on this at all. It’s so fuckin great.
The fun is with Candlemass video Bewitched.
It is directed by Jonas Åkerlund.
Who later became a highly acclaimed music video director, film director, screenwriter.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonas_%C3%85kerlund
Thanks for these amazing reccomendations
Wait no!!
Judas Priest Heading Out To The Highway (I love Judas Priest and the song itself), the cheesy painted desert background and Rob’s dancing is what does it.
I'm SO happy Jake Paul got arrested!
4:12 Ok for a Split second I was like... What Kind of metal side Genre is "GOLD METAL"?
I have these strange nostalgic fond feelings towards the Bad Touch by Bloodhound gang (and the album it came from in general). Cause when I was like 11 or 12, I had this cassette, where on one side I recorded the Matrix OST and Bloodhound Gang ended up on the other side. And I played that thing in my walkman over and over again. I wasn't that good at English back then, so I didn't quite realize what most Bloodhound Gang songs were about lmao.

I just watched a video on that Billy Squier performance 😂
Appareantly "Dog police" was very popular during nigths during early days of MTV. Todd in the Shadows mentioned them in One HIt Wonderland episode on "Mexican radio" by Wall of Voodoo.
"A giant mess of bullshit!"
So, like current mainstream music nowadays...
Almost every Kiss music video could be on this list
Saw Holy Diver in the thumb nail, just had to watch lol.
I was hoping for Nazareth 'Love Hurts' But Candlemass was a good alternative.
@@AD1978leo I love both though, despite all the cheese 😁
Everything you said about "I Believe in a Thing Called Love" also applies to "I'm Sexy and I know It"
Damn, you gotta hunt down the source of that glare 🤔 Also, great vid ✌️
I love how Dead (R.I.P.) from the band Mayhem is in the Bewitched video. This list is pretty spot on in my opinion.
Couple others I thought of of starting part 2: Leonard Nimoy's hobbit song. David Hasseloff's Hooked on a Feeling.
Please do more of these!
"Ding Dong Song" by Günther must stand trial.
That “big bad wolf” video is fucking painful to get through.
One video that I think you missed is Jim Steinman - Rock and Roll Dreams Come Through. Jim Steinman standing on some sort of volcano-like platform trying to look like the rock star he always wanted to be while two dancers performs some sort of contemporary dance routine with an electric guitar in front of him.
There is also a live performance where they recreate the scene from the video which is even more cringe.
I Just watched that duck sauce vid...Jesus man, that was hard to get through.
If you do a scariest music video you first have to put black hole sun by sound garden and anything tool made next the rest doesn't matter
What kind of whiskey is it? I love me some Maker’s Mark. One of the local bars has it on tap.
Ok for part 2 you gotta have
Who wants to be lonely- Kiss
Queen Of The Reich-Queensryche
Mystic Rhythms-Rush
Cherry Pie-Warrant
that part of dog police is also a rip off of the song that plays when you beat a level in mario bros. its just a VI VII I cadence using the major I instead of minor
Hahahahaha, I was hoping to see separate ways from Journey due to the intro alone! I absolutely love the song but dang; that video...
I love the video and song for different reasons lol! But I definitely love them both.
Become The Knight hell yea man! 🤘🏼
Question: do you like bands like sabaton, powerwolf, manowar ,alestorm etc ? I would like to know your opinion on them
Very rarely.
"Bloody Verdict of Verden" has to be one of the greatest inverse proportions between expectation and execution in music history.
Damn, where did you find this stuff? Wow!!
Eifel65 - Blue... I remember listening to this song for hours, and it still is my guilty pleasure 🤘😂😁
Bartenders advice:
Use a big rock of clear ice for your whiskey (very easy to make just look it up on CZcams). This way the drink stays cold but it doesn’t get too diluted and the flavor remains more prominent. But if u like the dilution then using normal ice cubes is fine of course.
Something cool about the music video for Candlemass-Bewitched, it has Dead from Mayhem in it 🤘
Your channel’s content has exploded in excellence in recent times.
If only the views reflected that lol! But I appreciate ya regardless 🤘 trying to tackle topics I really care about.
Dude, in the sequel make sure that Music Time by Styx gets a slot! It’s so cringe it broke up the band!
For a possible part 2 video, PLEASE check out Calling All Girls by Queen. I kept thinking “WTF? Guys, you’re so much better than this!” The song is actually good though.
I’m shocked there aren’t any Iron Maiden videos on the list. You need to do a follow up Mike.
Dokken - Breaking the Chains. You were too afraid to watch it weren't you.
That "Nobody knows who you are" from the Dog Police...that's actually from the Spiderman TV show theme song.
There was a kid's show in the early 80s called The Electric Company that had Spiderman shorts with a theme song that went, "Spiderman, where are you coming from, Spiderman, nobody knows who you are." I think Dog Police got their line from that.
Mike you definitely missed the song/video "Torture" by The Jacksons. I remember this dumpster fire used to come on pop up video VH1 back in the day. Is cringe on its own but when you hear the backstory that Michael Jackson wanted no part of it and they tried to pass off a wax mannequin as being really am in the video it's all the more cringy. I'm sure you must have seen it before Mike that's why I was really surprised it didn't show up on this list
Chris Lee vid was amazing. No cringe found, bro.
The Billy Squire vid reminds me of the Kevin Bacon dance scene in Footloose.
Could have just had all of Peter Gabriel’s music videos here
What would y’all rank What Does a Fox say?
12 inch carbide masonry bit through my freaking skull tier.
Time Stand Still is my favorite Rush song. I didn't watch the music video for ages because the thumbnail looked so awful, but I'm so happy I did. Yeah the visuals are primitive, but if you pay attention to how they move around its actually pretty intricately choreographed.
"It's someone's head where someone's phallus should be" [...] "I get what they were trying to go for"
Yeah, what a common imagery.
You should now make another tier list for the best music videos ever, and put Separate ways into S tier as well.
I like "Time stand still" from Rush most videos were Cringy back then, but that one had from' Til Tuesday's Aimee Mann's sweet ass to look at. had the biggest crush on her back then. damn I am old
Missed a few:
Olivia Newton-John: Physical
Devo - Whip It
AKB48 - Sugar Rush
Kim Carnes - Bette Davis Eyes
My favorite music videos are the early ones. The ones where they just put psychedelic art and images on a green screen behind the band ie Black Sabbath's Iron Man. Thanks for the cringe tho Mike, I'm gonna get down this Friday.
Tfw no immortal - call of the wintermoon :(
I suggested that just now.
Cristopher lees portrayals of Dracula date back to the 1950s and played him in 7 movies. He was also a staple of the horror genre
Okay but what about Korn’s music video for Word Up
shout out to Queensryche - Queen Of The Reich and Queensryche - gonna get close to you
Love these tier list videos Mike
Lee also played as Scaramanga from the James Bond franchise in the 70s.
The like to dislike ratio on Friday is amazing
You should watch rock of ages by def leppard music video it’s kind of slightly similar to holy diver but I love the song and band
Ah man, I love that Dio video, and the Killswitch cover
Have you seen Tacabro - Tacata? The most hack song and video ever that uses Chupa Chups logos (probably illegally!)
What do you mean? Each and everyone of this are masterpieces of cinematography with the right amount of colour pallets and perfectly executed shots at the right time
One of my favorites is Progenies of The Great Apocalypse by Dimmu Borgir. Fantastic black metal edgelord cringe.
i cant believe scarlet by periphery wasnt on here lol
