If you have yet to experience the joy of “literal” music videos on YouTube, then the best place to start is this hilarious retelling of Meatloaf’s gloriously over-the-top anthem “I’d Do Anything For Love (But I Won’t Do That).” The idea is to redub an old music video using lyrics that describe exactly what’s happening in the video. Needless to say, this gothic fairy tale offers plenty of MTV era silliness on which to comment. “My mattress is made of gypsy sluts.” A catchphrase if I ever heard one.
