Ah, youth.
Back in the late '80s and early '90s, my good friend Jaimes Palacio would convince his friends to let him videotape us doing outlandish things, running around like maniacs and dressing up in silly costumes to make completely silly music videos. Mind, since most of us knew each other from 'Rocky Horror," that behavior was hardly a stretch. Now, more than two decades later, Jaimes has begun posting some of these online. It's like a bizarre time capsule to a different era.
My personal favorite is the one where I play a hit man to the tune of Golden Earing's 'Twilight Zone," but it turns out I can't embed that here because it's only on Facebook. If Jaimes puts it on YouTube, I'll put it up.
This one is pretty much just us goofing around to Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer":
A video for The Dickies' "Killer Klowns":
A video for Swing Out Sister's "Breakout!" which I love because everybody just seems so gleeful:
Same with this one for "Hello Cruel World":
And there are many more, mostly over at Jaimes' YouTube channel.
None of them make a lick of sense, but they are awesome.
And dear God, we were young.
But it was SO much fun ...
