Written By: 80sTrivia on 06/17/02 at 08:57 a.m.

Just found this hilarious video of David Hasselhoff's version of "Hooked On a Feeling"!!! It's too funny for words so I'll just let the video speak for itself!!!

OMG!  It's utterly, utterly dreadful.  Words fail me (and believe me, brothers and sisters, that doesn't happen often)

...so the Germans like him?  Maybe he appeals to their sense of humour (rather like Benny Hill did)

OMG, my tum's hurting from laughing!!! That this man (or anyone, for that matter) can try to seriously call himself an artist is beyond comprehension!!!! Spare me...remember when he was "Snapper" in Y&R?  Time has not improved him! A cool car and Pamela Lee can't improve him!  Maybe ear-plugs and blinders can!  How am I EVER going to scrub that image from my brain?  My retinas are permantly burned! My ears are bleeding!  AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!

I had no idea that the Germans were so well-known for their sense of humor!

I had a feeling everyone else's reaction would be the same as mine! I've had to watch it a few times just to laugh at it again!!! I think this is cheezier than any 80s video has ever been!!!  ;D

I remember that.  My mom was a big Y&R fan, and I still remember him singing on there too.  It's been stuck in my head for years.."April, that means you..." Egads, scary thought.. ::)

But I would like to thank 80sTrivia for that laugh.  I just don't know what to say....kind of at a loss for words...but I do believe that I have now seen the worst video in the history of the world............ :-X

I know I'll get flak from the German-American community. But Germans love crap! At least a good number of Germans in Europe. If a personality is not the least bit talented and can't hold a note, Germans will buy a lot of them. It's just like France's obsession with Mickey Roarke and Jerry Lewis (although Mickey is actually the funnier one now) ;)

So now you know that you share a sense of humour with the Germans!

Not that I don't like Benny Hill - my first lyrics quiz had a couplet from one of his (The Andalucian Gypsies:
Oh, my wife is one in a million
Often have I heard that said
But you are not one in a million, you look like
You're won in a raffle instead)

I actually liked Benny Hill, too.  I remember watching it all the time on Channel 56 out of Boston when I was growing up in Sanford, ME.

The scarriest thing is not the video, I expect this kind of crap form the "Baywatch" crowd (Dog Eat Dog, Anyone?).   I am more concered about how or why you found it.  Thanks for the laugh.
