Thumbs up Guilty Pleasure Music Video's?

We all have fave guilty pleasure songs & video's we love or songs that were never big hits but are to you.

What are/is your fave song/video that you barely tell people or watch all the time?

One of mine is from STARSHIP called 'Tomorrow Doesn't Matter Tonight", I actually like this song better than the cheesy 'We Built This City' & 'Sara' which album this song is from.

A little question for anyone, can you name the blonde girl in the video?

So post your fave video or song!

Guiltiest pleasure music video of all time: for me- Pat Benatar, 'Love Is A Battlefield'-- how she got slammed for being a 'bad dancer' in it back in the day, but I think she looks awesome and moves just fine throughout the video- the choreography was so silly that it's brilliant - the shoulder shaking and what not, it's all awesome. Critics, schmitics- It is entirely memorable and loads of fun!
Mad TV did a funny parody of it quite a few years later of the characters as adults in the workplace, doing the same defiant shoulder dancing in rebellion, it was quite good and seemed instantly recognized by the studio audience a decade or more after the original video.

He reminds me of my old Art tutor so much it's not even funny. In fact, I wish it HAD have been my art tutor in this video. It would have been EPIC!

Can't embed, but http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQ41hqlV0Kk&ob .. the first legit big budget video. Kind of gets lost in the early-history-of-music-video conversation.

Very first time I ever saw anything in HD was in 1989(ish), this video, some museum or gallery in NYC (trying to track that info down now). BLEW MY MIND. Poor Jets are probably still paying the label back for this.

But, yeah, still qualifies as cheesy without the benefit of the context.

Kimberly, good call on the Swayze video. And Bee, I loooove Weapon of Choice. I always associate it with my college years, and one roommate in particular. We'd both crack up whenever it came on.

I submit:

Oh, I don't think it's good! It's so bad that I love to make fun of it.
