*sigh* We didn't call them "mullets" back then.

What's a Dewey Decimal? The only keyboard in the entire library is musical. This isnt a library its one of those places where books live

This was great!

They should do one of "Never Gonna Give You Up" by the one-and-only Rick Astley

I actually enjoyed this one a whole lot more than the Aha one... that video was just plain creepy; this one at least if funny

Ah, Valerie, don't be mean to toothy. He was the original emo kid. Seriously, watch some of their old videos, and he just looks SO sad, and you know he's not faking it. (That's a boy who obviously got picked on a lot in gym class, poor thing.) If I remember, he wrote most of their songs, so it's natural he'd be upfront. Maybe it just seemed odd because there was this more conventionally handsome guy hiding in the background, while this toothy little guy was in your face singing.

Does anyone remember their video before the big-toothed, pretentious one took over the group? It wasn't a great song, but, at least there was less of the pretentious one in the video. Totally put me off the group when all we saw was the one guy... Felt sorry for the other one. Maybe he was the lesser talented, I don't know. But, man, I wish they'd done something else in their videos but focus on toothy!

Settle down woogie! If you don't like it, fine. No need to spoil the fun of people who do like it.

It already seems like it might be a new meme... Still, only one group has done it so far, so perhaps not.

This is definitely "You Had To Be There"/"You Gotta Appreciate the Singing" territory, folks. My nephew doesn't get it, my best friend does. Life goes on...

I found the Aha one funny for the first minute or so. Now I fully expect this idea to be beaten to death like the re-cut movie trailer gimmick a few years back.

I loved the A-ha Take on Me so much but this seemed so much funnier for some reason...I wish there was an endless supply of these

Not as good as the other, but yeah, he really does look like Dave Coulier.

They copied this from Ghostbusters, and check out my cool new sweater from the Gap made me laugh.

Take On Me was way better, though. It must be topped! (sorry, woogie)

The a-ha one was genius. This one was okay. But it seemed to stray from the "what's literal happening on the screen is what's sung" idea.

Still gotta give them credit, though.

This asinine unfunny trend needs to stop, RIGHT NOW!
