RIDICULOUS YNGWIE VIDEO #23,462
Friday, August 8th, 2008 at 10:43am by Vince NeilsteinJust when you thought the bowels of YouTube had been dredged for the absolutely most ridiculous, cheesy, over-the-top Yngwie video imaginable, along comes MetalSucks reader Ray Hill with… this.
A fucking plus.

featuring Quentin Tarantino on vocals too! nice
it’s nice to have reminders that even talented people can be incredibly, profoundly lame
Why is he playing a left-handed guitar right-handed? Trying to imitate Hendrix?
HA HA HA HA HA HA
He is a bit on the silly side…..ok alot on that side but we all know that if that was a DIO video then everyone would throw up the horns and talk about how metal he is lol
I tried to figure out if there was a plot between the wizard, the dragon and the Viking like man but couldn’t come up with anything….I think they just thought it would be cool to put a viking, a wizard and a dragon in the video. LOL….
Ha, that was really bad. It reminds me of an awful Savatage video I saw the other day with a midget.
ew.
i remember thinking this was lame when i was 12…
I love the thrashing keyboard player! Rock on, keyboard guy!
And the part where the sword guy jumped in what looked like a big stew pot was hilarious. Does it make me a bad person if I say I wanted to see the dragon set Yngwie’s hair spray on fire?
To be fair, the song’s pretty cool.
That lead singer has the most disproportionate face in metal history. Outside of a dwarf, that is.
Probably the only Yang-wee song I ever liked.
It may be blasphemous but it bring Dragonforce to mind.
The song was cool.
The video, however, no less gay than an ‘albatross’.
so i watched an interview from 1986 where Yngwie actually talks about this video, he says that they actually rented the set from Conan the Barbarian hahahahahah, too bad Arnold wasnt in the video too…
heres the link to the interview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxKqql7cruk
I think they reused the set from “Big Trouble in Little China,” though I am surprised Yanger wasn’t bent over the keyboard, lead singer close behind….
Heh… Yngwie was doing the ‘guitar-spin-around-your-neck’ thing long before aFallout Boy and those other emocore assholes.
You gotta love it when a vocalist has to mime another vocalist’s stuff, especially when he doesn’t have the range. Mark Boals, you’re no Jeff Scott Soto.
No way! This is the set from the Conan the Barbarian live action show at Universal Studios..my favorite as a lil Lass! Disgustingly Classic, seeing this just made my day!
Not just dragons, LAZER dragons! What could be the THAC0 on that? Quick, to my mom’s basement! Doesn’t that video have everything?
Mike, it might’ve been the hall of the mountain king video…cool song, insanely cheesy video.
