Found these on LiveVideo and laughed at some of the humor (or humour), the best/most funny one being "Wild Boys!" [:p]

Ha! Nice Find Glock!

Kinda smacks of MST 3K! (YouTube Frat House Version)

Now.. The real test will be if KYYX4ever gives it her stamp of approval[}:)]

heh,
I made fun of "Wild Boys" when it first came out. That was a DD song I never liked. The guys sure looked good during this time, though.

I just now logged on and haven't seen these yet. This should be good.

? I'm just saying you guys need a new meme. Especially coming from THIS kind of forum. You know, people who are supposed to be kinder to acts from the NW musical era than others would be? Granted, it's perfectly ok to hate on the "New Moon On Monday" video because apparently it took about 500 years to make it and the entire band totally hated that song (e.g. they steadfastly refused to play it in concert) for 15 years as a result, but considering the context of all the other videos they were actually pretty genius/boss.

yes, you are right. Duran made some tight videos....

my favorite show ever was Mystery Science Theatre 3000 and these videos smack just enough of MST3K to make me giggle.
