We'll start with a softball...

Classic. Money for nothing and chicks for free. Cant remember the title - I'm too busy moving this refrigerator. 
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

The title is in the lyrics, "Money for Nothing". Do you have one for us, LB?

I should rock at this thread, much more so than the movie one. Pun intended :)

That's what I was kinda thinking for myself ;)

Here ya go, Gus.

won Video of the Year at the VMAs in... '84, I think.  If not, it was '83, but pretty sure it was '84.  And I refuse to look it up on Google.

Nicely done Brant! It was '84. That was a big year for music videos, at least in my recollection ;)

A little obscure, but I gotta think someone here can get this one.

Ratt? I don't know the song.

^Yeah I'm stumped too. So much for me starting this thread. I'll take my parting gift and be on my way.

I don't think that's Ratt...but I'll be damned if I know who it is.

Not Ratt, but heading in the right direction

It's from '85

I can cook up something. Sorry for the delay - was out running errands.

My first instinct was go with some classic heavy metal from the 80's. But Brant used to be a metal DJ and he'd probably nail them.

So I went for something unexpected.



I'll even give you a taste of the lyrics: "rings...but not on that finger..."

"Tenderness"?
There was a lot of cross-view shots of the singers in that one.

Again - I'm doing this w/o hitting the Oracle of Goog, so I might have the wrong song, but I know that's the right band

Right song, right band. Nothing is sacred in this thread. Brant will be uber.
