I had a feeling that Abba video wouldn't disappoint. It didn't. That's gonna be hard to top.

DAY 7. A music video that is funny (unintentionally)
I considered "Apache", but that's at least partially intentionally funny.
I could never decide whether this one is more confusing or funny, but it's a lot of both so it works here.

That ABBA video remind me of something.
My favorite unintentionally funny video -- I know this video was recently on Family Guy, so I don't feel very creative, but it always makes me laugh: "Dancing in the Street," by David Bowie & Mick Jagger.

My favorite part is at 2:22, when David Bowie makes a move, Mick Jagger sees it and decides he wants to do it too.

I can't find it on youtube, so here's the MTV link. Is it possible to embed a video from any site other than youtube?

I don't know. Fairly sure Katy Perry is still being funny. I mean, she has fireworks shooting out of her tits, and every guy is looking at them.
Seems pretty earnest to me, especially given the "message" of the song.Quoting Ezee E (view post)
