I love how he does the back up singer parts as well. That's talent!

I like the guy in the orange shorts checking the amp. Also: English is first language??!??!

I like how he acts as his own backing vocal.

It's just their cheap instruments. A little autotune and expensive studio effects and that's a hit.

It was bad enough BEFORE he started singing

Keyboardist can't get riff right, singer's tone-deaf, guitarists can't play, drummer speeds up. Rock

Are they trying to hurt us with music? I think they are.

how did they make it WORSE

I'm sorry I doubted your description, Old Zircon.

shit fugue

If you thought Europe sucked before, boy oh boy have we got a surprise for you.

There's just something... magical about this song.

HELL YES

wow, that really IS the worst final countdown.

This rules harder than 100 koalas with Jared Fogel masks playing air guitar

IT STILL SOUNDS BETTER THAN NICK CAVE

+5 for persistence after screwing up all of two seconds in

A masterpiece of torture.

RAWK

Horrible on so many different levels that it turns into a unique piece of art.

It couldn't have been worse and still recognizable as a cover song.

"It's da fino cown-down"

Where the hell is the audience?

No cover has been so incompetently awesome since Wesley Willis did "Girls on Film."

I actually winced while watching this. The instrumentalists look bored to tears.

Every time you think it can't get any worse...

Oh, this is going in my favorites.

I like the roadie, desperately searching for either a knob that'll turn down the suck or a plug to pull.

I am aurally assaulted yet I cannot look away

Oh God, it hurts on so many levels.

I have to wonder if the keyboard player really thought "Synth Brass played through megaphone/anus" was the best instrument choice for the song.

A trainwreck all the way through. I hope I was never in a band that sounded this bad.

You know, they tried to do a little light show; like at about -0:22, the lights change over for dramatic effect. You know. Because it's the FINAL final countdown. Aww.

So painful it's glorious.

It's like drunken kareoke with a larger stage.

The sheer emptiness of the field they're playing to speaks for itself.

DA FINAL COWDOWWWWWW

Every time I watch this, I can't help but burst out laughing when he starts singing. I keep forgetting how badly somebody can sing.

extra star for the fat dude who walks past smiling

Great cinematography. How is it that I'm only now just seeing this?

"Wow, can you believe it, I'm in a band! And all it cost me was a keyboard from WalMart!"

I have to get the full album.

Alright, I finally watched it.


This reminds of the girl from "Persepolis" singing "Eye of the Tiger."

WE LEEVEEN TOGEVAAH

The drum solo lead-in to the guitar solo is the best. They have some of their rhythmic cues spot on, so you know they practiced quite a bit with that tone deaf motherfucker screeching into the microphone the entire time.

For the sake of my sanity, I'm going to believe that this is the Butthole Surfers in disguise, exacting their vengeance on this song.

Five, no explanation required.

This is possibly the best music video ever made.

Oh boy

I had to watch the version that The God of Biscuits posted.

Good lord, I was not prepared for this.
