Subject: '80's Music Video Battle: "Girls Just Want To Have Fun" vs. "Material Girl"

Written By: woops on 04/13/05 at 7:44 pm

Which video do you like more?  :D  8)

Though I select "Material Girl" since it's one of my favorite Madonna videos.

Gee, this is hard - they're both bouncy and (of course) fun songs that really defined the feel of the early/mid 80's, but - if we're just going on the videos, it'd be "Girls Wanna Have Fun."

Loved the kitchen shots with the Corn Flakes, and Cyndi pulling her big/tough-looking dad's hand behind his back as everyone came into the house! If I'm not mistaken, didn't it have a big intro as well - footage before the song started playing?

(Some videos did this, but I remember VH1 started heavily editing/cutting them in about 1991.)

Material Girl. I always loved the Marilyn Monroe reference.

I'm gonna have to say neither. Both videos and the songs are just totally overrated
