Tuesday, June 20, 2006 why work when you can watch 80's music videos?
You can bill this as "creative inspiration," when your boss wants to know what you've been doing all morning. An entire collection of 80's music videos. Funny, hilarious, scary, freaky, and embarrassing. Here's how I wasted my hour:
Chaka Kahn - I feel for you
Paul Hardcastle - 19
Visage - Fade to Grey (what video looked like before After Effects)
Pointer Sisters - I'm so Excited (I bet they play this at Leigh's wedding this weekend)
The Cure - Boys Don't Cry
English Beat - Mirror in the Bathroom
Lene Lovich - New Toy
ELO - All over the World (nice outfits)
Black Flag - Six Pack (Rollins could still kick your ass)
PIL - This is Not a Love Song (what a $200 production budget looks like)
Psychedelic Furs - Heaven (This guy actually stuck up for me, once)
Joy Division - Love Will Tear us Apart
Bow Wow Wow - I Want Candy (I had the biggest crush on Annabella)
Lords of the New Church - Dance with me (Check out the classic 80's typography in the background)
