I made a point of hating David Lee Roth in the '80s, and I never let on how funn I thought his videos were! Especiall Just a Gigilo/I Ain't Got Nobody.
A lot of my resentment came from a mild resemblance I had to "Waldo" at the time Hot For Teacher came out. Though I'd never hear the end of it!

As much as I LOVE Weird Al, I went with other "I wanna be a Cowboy". I don't think Land of Confussion is funny. I think it is a very serious video (even though it was kind of funny to see Ronald Reagan dressed like Superman. ;) ;D)

Out of all of those, my favourite isn't there! (And Rush, I can't believe you missed this one! ;D)
My favourite is...
"Stutter Rap" by Morris Minor and the Majors!!! :D Very funny...:D

I chose Yankee Rose. The convenient store scene at the beginning is priceless!

I went with another Weird Al one....Fat if that's from the late 80's? If not I'll pick "Eat It" from 1984

Other: I gotta go with Huey Lewis & The News's "Doin' It All For My Baby". That silly Frankenstein/Dracula/Mummy spoof is hilarious, especially at the end, as the explosion turns Frank's monster back into Huey, and only then does the mummy-girl scream!

Even though I never liked David Lee Roth, Just a Gigilo was hysterical.

I'll go with "We're Not Gonna Take It" by TS. Though if we're including this one we probably should include "I Wanna Rock" as well.

Gotta be Rappin' Rodney by Rodney Dangerfield
"Poor old Rappin' Rodney, can't catch a break" I only ever saw the music video for it once, but boy was it hilarious :)

Catwoman, good point. That Genesis video was not meant to be funny. Its a very serious song. Also one of their best. I wonder if they regret taking the video in such a strange direction?

Why Can't I Be You? by The Cure because of the way they're dancing!
I voted for Hyperactive! because my two cousins liked it when I was showing it to them on DVD, but then why wasn't "She Blinded Me With Science" on this list? It was also funny! :)
