Facebook Competition

Friday, April 15th, 2011

Spurred on by our latest Facebook competition, Amplified towers has been looking back at the weird and somehow strangely wonderful music videos of old, and boy oh boy did we find some beauties!!

We thought we’d share a few of our faves or well…not so favourite videos with you guys. Enjoy!

First up we have what we can only describe as two dads dancing at a wedding. Two music greats Mick Jagger and Bowie coming together for 1895′s live aid can surely only be a good thing right?? You decide.

We stumbled across this real clanger of a music video. Jammed full of dodgy video effects, random moments and some cringe worthy dance moves to match the lyrics, David Hasselhoff’s not so classic video just had to make the list. Enjoy!

Not the worst? If you know any as bad or even worse videos, enter our Facebook competition to win a cool £25 to spend on Amplified tees at SugarBullets.co.uk. Good luck!
