Hello,

All these make me think - "I'll listen to a great song and probably watch (last through) a crap video because it's a great song, but will I watch a great video and listen (last through) the crap song attached?". Maybe a thread should ask about (though not poll) great songs with crap videos and crap songs with great videos? I'll admit my priority is on the song.
I don't think a good video ever persuaded me on a dodgy song, but it's possible a shitty video prejudiced me against an otherwise decent tune. No examples come to mind, but that's my instinct.
Agreed. I’m not into videos anyway but no video can save a crap song other than fun value.

Pretty much anything from the 80s.
Oh Mimi that's a little harsh. How about this from '83.
I was thinking the mainstream, synth heavy crap.
I would never assume what a lady was thinking. ;)

Yeah same and most videos are ok at best.

Uh oh used the M word. Hopefully Chico wont call me out on it.

Though it's the guiltiest of guilty pleasures for me, the video is a piece of shit. I win.

Speaking of, I saw that Nick Markakis is opting out this season, and I had to wonder whether we ever found proof that he even existed. And then I thought about Chico and hoped that someone kicked him really hard in the shin today.

I'm still skeptical that it'll get played. That is, they'll start, play for a couple weeks, and it'll get shut down for the year. I'm really disinterested at this pointed.

Oh, I'll watch the odd game, but I don't care who wins or loses at this point. Well, no, that's not quite true. I'd like batshit not-gonna-happen-in-a-162-game-season WS.
