Literal Videos

blakefancier pointed to me the Total Eclipse of the Heart 'literal video' where the words fit what you really see in the video. I found a bunch more. 'Anything for Love' is also great.

I think "Anything for Love" was the best, although the "Total Eclipse" one pointed out just how creepy that video is. What were they thinking? I started looking through YouTube, and I couldn't believe how many of these there are!

It's a cool idea-- of course, the quality varies.

*grin* More weird fun with English, the language where the party never ends.

I like your language party!!!

OMG! The last one is downright hilarious, Penny Lane is awesome, but Total Eclipse of the Heart - I laughed until I cried. Now I have a sore stomach from laughing so much! Thank you for sharing these!

I'm glad you enjoyed them as much as I did. :^)

of course...

what I was really hoping for was the reverse- someone making a video literally to what the song was saying- sort of like this one of Joe Cocker singing @ Woodstock:

Stupid bus!
You scared my horse!
Now he's too fast...

These are remarkably funny. I just want to know where they got their vocalists from.

I wondered about that myself- my guess is that they have friends who can sing & they choose the video from singers the friend can imitate.

There were a bunch more of these- and some of them the singers were very bad.
