[Harry's Lad 2,985]

Gimme All Your Lovin' and Subterranean Homesick Blues. Baggy Trousers 3rd for me.

[Tony Moanero 17,252]

Subterranean Homesick Blues and Baggy Trousers. There are, however, other Madness videos that I prefer. I’ve never really been a fan of their music but the videos are fun and nostalgic.

[Strontium 11,219]

Dylan and ZZ Top. Iconic videos of the kind I hoped we'd see more of in this tournament.

 

Can't deny that the Madness video and music go together extremely well, both being rife with cockney wankery, for which I obviously have a lower tolerance than most here.

[polymerpunkah 1,445]

I don't quite know what to make of that Laibach video. More Fritzl than Von Trapp. 

 

A bit of insight:

It and Dylan for me.

 

 

[SasaS 3,208]

Dylan because it is one of the most referenced videos of all times and conversely Laibach, because it is the most reference-rich video in the group and probably the tournament.

[aws 8,072]

Dylan and Madness.  ZZ just missing out. 

[KMD7 9,471]

ZZ and Dylan.

Ok go should be doing better. Brilliantly crafted videos.  I suspect people are voting for the songs not the videos.

The two I've seen so far are just a bit weird for me mate, and I finger cats so that's saying something.

Or people just like different things. I’ve never heard of Ok Go, watched the video and didn’t enjoy it.

Yeah fair enough. People have different tastes. Fair play fir taking a look.

I'd never seen any of their stuff, but I voted for the last OK Go video because it was genuinely creative. 

 

This one however was just choreographed dancing like a thousand boybands before them.

I like it because it was entirely homemade in their garden and choreographed by the singer’s sister. It wasn’t meant for mass consumption.

Everything popular is wrong. 

[Babb'sBurstNad 12,122]

Dylan and Madness for me Clive. Don't get the love for ZZ Top, always thought they were a bit naff, videos and all.

[Ezekiel 25:17 3,905]

Madness, top 5 worst bands, comfortably.

[AngryOfTuebrook 24,511]

What an absolutely shit group. Madness and Dylan are clearly the best here, but I can't see either of them going far. Nothing else in this group bears watching twice.

The thing about ZZ Top is that their popularity peaked when they made their worst music (with suitably shit videos).

[AngryOfTuebrook 24,511]

Not enough running machines in the OK Go video for my liking.

[Boss 8,229]

Dylan. Didn't rate any of the others.

[Skidfingers McGonical 3,492]

Who the fuck picked the Laibach one?

 

I’d be checking their hard drive.

Legs is by far ZZ Top’s best video.
