My Least Favorite Music Video


All I can say about this video is, "What...the...*bleep*?" The fact that I dislike the video is not because of the song. “I Believe in a Thing Called Love” by The Darkness is an awesome song, don’t get me wrong. However, the video gives me the feeling like I am tripping way too much on LSD or some other hallucinogenic drug. Quite honestly, I would not be comfortable with a giant, furry object with four appendages drying me off after a bath. Not to mention that a leather, one piece outfit with a “V cut” extending to the abdomen creeps me out a little bit as well. Giant crabs throwing rocks…I did a quick check of the water I was drinking to be sure that it was safe. After grabbing a new glass of water, I saw what appeared to be a giant space squid fornicating with the spacecraft where they were performing. Enough was enough. I just shook my head and continued cruising YouTube.
However, I must give credit where it is due. Justin Hawkins, the lead singer for The Darkness at the time, has an incredible vocal range. His brother, Dan, the lead guitarist, is freaking unbelievable in the rhythms and chords that he plays. This band is amazing and I love their sound, but the music video is so horrendous, it is hilarious.
To get down to brass tacks, I honestly cannot choose a least favorite music video because I really don’t watch music videos much. That reason and the fact that I could not do any better than the guys performing in the video, so I normally keep my mouth shut unless I prove that I could do so. In all honesty, this is not my least favorite music video…just a video that I thought could fit the category. Hope you enjoyed reading this filler entry!
