HEY EVERYONE, LET'S MAKE A REALLY CRAP VIDEO

  • June 22, 2011
  • Popjustice

Here's the video for 'Cryin' Over You' by Nightcrawlers and Taio Cruz.

[youtube]aleCOTzdF68[/youtube]

Nobody comes out of this whole 'let's have the orgy at dad's house' atrocity at ALL well. Even people who aren't in this video — people who haven't even been born yet — are affected by it, such is the power with which its badness permeates all humanity.

What's your favourite bit?

John Nightcrawler's appar­ently straight-faced Peter Stringfellow routine?

Taio Cruz being com­pletely unem­bar­rassed by the whole thing?

Taio Cruz's awful "I walk through the door and just start singing" schtick?

The 'drinking from the fishbowl'?

The 'lezzing off'?

The bit where the 'lesbians' do that "don't look at us oh go on then" look to camera?

The 'narrative' which seems to go no further than two of the extras having an argument about nothing?

The use of a red sports car to show that Taio Cruz is def­in­itely good at The Sex and is in no way incapable of achieving full tumescence?

The bit where the women paid to be in the video pretend to be having fun tickling John Nightcrawler? 

OH DEAR.

(The song's quite good though.)
