In an effort to keep "hip", I looked up what the current number one song is. Shame on you, other people my age, for having such atrocious taste in music -- and music videos. There is no plot. There is no theme. The images are related in that the whole music video appears to be about two creepy crooks being disgustingly gooey with each other as well as being eerily possessive. They also engage in every minor crime or vice known to man, and both show far too much skin. At one point in the video, the woman does something symbolic. She barfs. It is indicative of the total quality of the music video.
Blackmail your enemies with the threat of watching it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tg00YEETFzg&ob=av2e
1 point if the music video in question has very good dancing or no dancing.
They are too busy being creepy and sexual with each other to dance. Point.
1 point if the music video has no dancing.
Point.
1 point if the music video has something from the beginning come into play at the end.
Nothing, as far as I could see, came into play only at the far extremes of the video.
1 point if the music video has a series of related images, a theme, or a plotline.
The images were related, though not quite enough to be a theme.
1 point if the music video has a theme or a plotline.
Nope. "Here's how much I love this person as I take drugs and shoplift" does not count as a theme.
1 point if the music video has a plotline.
There's an epic fail here.
1 point if the music video is either depicts extreme coolness or extreme realism.
No point, because dear God I hope reality isn't like that...
1 point if the music video, if it has a plotline or theme, has no diversions from it.
Ha.
1 point if the music video does something that makes you think.
I was trying to turn my brain off to cancel out the extreme revulsion it produced in me.
1 point to spare in case I really like it.
I do not.
This video gets a 3/10. Barely.
I am HIGHLY up for suggestions for music videos to review.
