Balla coi Barlafüs by Elio e le Storie TeseBalla coi Barlafüs by Elio e le Storie Tese - 1 minute 39 seconds (320x240, 25 fps, 3.9 MB). An Italian language parody of The Time Warp, by Elio e le Storie Tese. The video's opening credits state that it is a program of Gialappa's Band with Aldo, Giovanni, Giacomo, et al. The sets and costumes were very nicely done for this parody, and the jock strap Transylvanian amuses me every time I watch this...:-)
Beauty Queen by Little NellBeauty Queen by Little Nell - 2 minutes 18 seconds (160x120, 30 fps, 5.4 MB). Little Nell performs the song Beauty Queen for the 1980 film Alternative Miss World.
Do The Swim by Little NellDo The Swim by Little Nell - 2 minutes 42 seconds (160x120, 30 fps, 6.2 MB). Little Nell performs her "hit" song Do The Swim. Granted this isn't much more than Little Nell dancing around in a red swimsuit, but it's cute nonetheless...:-) She was apparently a member of the Australian swimming team for the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich, Germany.
Bat Out Of Hell III (Trailer) by Meat LoafBat Out Of Hell III (Trailer) by Meat Loaf - 2 minutes 5 seconds (320x240, 30 fps, 5.0 MB). "In the beginning... a renegade sound emerged that would reverberate through the world of rock for years to come. The sound wrapped around you like a winter skin and, like the night when darkness creeps in, Rock 'N Roll dreams came true." A 'trailer' for Meat Loaf's Bat Out Of Hell III: The Monster Is Loose album from 2006.
It's All Coming Back To Me Now by Meat LoafIt's All Coming Back To Me Now by Meat Loaf - 5 minutes 10 seconds (320x132, 24 fps, 20.5 MB). Meat Loaf performs this Jim Steinman song as a duet with Marion Raven for the Bat Out Of Hell III: The Monster Is Loose album in 2006. Steinman actually wrote the song back in 1983, and it was at one point going to be part of the Meat Loaf's Bat Out Of Hell II: Back Into Hell album. After this didn't happen, it was famously recorded by Celine Dion in 1996 with huge success that topped the charts as a single at #2 in the US and #3 in the UK.

The song is also featured on the soundtrack album. In this video, Meat Loaf parodies his role as Eddie in The Rocky Horror Picture Show by performing in an Eddie costume in front of a movie screen that is playing his original Paradise By The Dashboard Light video.

I Do The Rock by Tim CurryI Do The Rock by Tim Curry - 4 minutes 21 seconds (320x240, 30 fps, 10.3 MB). Tim Curry's I Do The Rock (it's stimulating!) is certainly the best known song of his relatively short career as a solo artist, from the 1979 Fearless album. This music video was made for MTV, but was often played before midnight showings of The Rocky Horror Picture Show as well.
Paradise Garage by Tim CurryParadise Garage by Tim Curry - 3 minutes 59 seconds (320x240, 30 fps, 9.5 MB).

This music video was made for MTV, but was often played before midnight showings of The Rocky Horror Picture Show as well.
