> [@Mahna\_Mahna](#): > > Prozzak Really? What’s wrong with Prozzak? It was just a novelty-/side-act for two of the members of The Philosopher Kings, much as The Monks was a spoof of punk by two members of Strawbs. It’s not like they intended to be taken seriously, unlike pretty much all of the other choices. ---

The Licky Licky song is ridiculous but it’s an instant earworm, and she was hot and seems like she could actually sing. ---

I present Dream Evil: [The Book of Heavy Metal](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-pN8qAiZhQ&feature=related). Also, gotta say I loved that era of music videos that produced the Bonnie Tyler video; it’s like no one quite knew what to do with videos that weren’t just video of the band performing, so they went with the most literal interpretation of the songs, like the guys working out in Olivia Newton-John’s “Let’s Get Physical.” ---
