The Crabby Critic Watches Some 80s Hair Band Videos

Ben always, ALWAYS, has an opinion on music.  Today I sat down with him and had him critique some 80s hair band videos.  I did ask him a few questions, but overall I have just written his own running commentary.  I was surprised, as he seemed mostly positive about the videos.  I should also mention that I paid him for his time with Wint-O-Green Lifesavers.

So, without further ado, here are Ben's thoughts:

Poison:  Nothin' But a Good Time

I like the singing.  I like the music. I know that this one is a boy. No. He's a girl. No, wait. I think they are all girls. No. This one is a boy.  I just don't know. I don't know what this song is about.  Nobody knows what this song is about. I'm done with this one now.  I want to go have lunch.



Bon Jovi:  Wanted Dead Or Alive

I know who is a boy and who is a girl in this one.  That one (points at Jon Bon Jovi) is a boy.  That one (points at Richie Sambora) is a girl. Cowboys?  Is this song about cowboys?  I think so.  These guys are dancing but they don't dance very good.  I don't want to be a singer when I grow up because I don't want to sing and I don't really want to be a grown up.  I like their long hair.  But guess what? I don't want to have long hair someday. Because...I don't know why.


Guns N Roses:  Welcome to the Jungle

Oh okay, well I like this one.  I like that guy who sings.  But maybe he's mad?  Is he happy or mad?  I don't like that guy with the black hat though.  He's not scary, but black is not my favorite color.  Maybe somebody else knows what this song is about?


Night Ranger:  Sister Christian

I don't like it.  I don't like all of it.  Are those two guitar guys twins?  I don't like the look of this.  Is it a commercial?  Are they singing in an office?  I don't like the dancing.  I just like commercials.  Wait, this is a commercial or its not a commercial?  What are they selling?  Money or something?  Is this about a sister named Kristen?  Mama?  Can I have another lifesaver?

The Crabby Critic wishes you all a wonderful weekend!
