Worst video, EVER!!!
A quick note to whoever reads this: You MUST watch the entire video.
This video by Bonnie Tyler is quite possibly the best and worst video of all time it has everything for everyone, battle scenes, swimmers, ninjas, flying alter boys, psychotic people of every sort, winged crazy men, football players, dancing diaper men, and last but certainly not least, greasers.
I find this video absurd for the above reasons but also because our protagonist Bonnie Tyler often appears to be wearing very fine sheets, combined with her hedgehog-esque quaff we have a formidable foe to overcome in terms of taking a video seriously. The dramatic use of sheets juxtaposed in front of open doors to the journey being made by our protagonist through all the various walks of life. And let's not forget about the tremendously overdone effects to the eyes in this video, whatever it may mean, whether it's a reference to the lyric "bright eyes," or if it's some sort of symbol designed to demonstrate that when your heart eclipses you loss sight of who you are or something of that nature.
However let's not forget that this all could be taken as brilliant humor, the moment I watched the alter boy take flight I knew that we might possibly have the most genius comedic video in the entire world (Exaggeration). Nonetheless the video is actually worth something in the realm of entertainment for me because it's so bad. If it doesn't being a smile to your face, I don't know what will

This is pretty much the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. I am a bit confused though- was this video ever supposed to be taken seriously? If so, those people were smoking something. Honestly though, I am a little disappointed because I like Bonnie Tyler a lot (eh, disagree if you want) even though her lyrics are a bit cliché, but then again, lots of lyrics are. Nevertheless, this video was hilarious. I especially enjoyed the very end. The strange winged creatures and muscle-y male dancers really added something as well. And what's up with those crazy glowing eyes?
Absolutely hilarious. I have never seen a video that had more random crap put in it than this video. I think who ever made this video was on salvia and every time he would go on a trip he would see something new to add to the video. If the whole goal to this video was to try and have the lyrics to the song and the video not go together at all then they passed with flying colors. But if they were not trying to do that then they failed miserably.
