oh god, I can't hold it back ...AHAHAHAHHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
 
Dude! Don't be dissing '80's classics. Granted the videos were cheesy, but they were the first ones.
 
Ah man, Thread Locked.

I'm......I'm speechlesss.
 
Well, at least the song is kind of catchy. :rolleyes:

It looks like they just brought the video camera to their aerobics class...it's still more coordinated than I ever looked in those classes. :smile:

Interesting that they're all still wearing '70s clothing and hairstyles in an '80s video. Must have been VERY early '80s. Where are the tight Jordache jeans with high heels and big hair? :smile:
 
and I thought it was lack of sunshine and cold in that caused depression in those northern countries, now I realize it's the music.
 
The chorogorapher needs to be severly beaten.
 
Do we really have any good reason not to nuke Finland after this?

I loved all of them... Even Integral's is bad enough to be charming in it's own special way. And the kids imitating that cracked me up! They looked like they were having a blast.

Most of you have probably seen this but for any newcomers...

I only now looked at it (must be a slow night).

It made my Safari crash. It never crashes. This can only mean that my iMac is so intelligent that it KNEW that this crap should not be allowed on its screen!
