Mike, it might’ve been the hall of the mountain king video…cool song, insanely cheesy video.

Not just dragons, LAZER dragons! What could be the THAC0 on that? Quick, to my mom’s basement! Doesn’t that video have everything?

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!

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.

Heh… Yngwie was doing the ‘guitar-spin-around-your-neck’ thing long before aFallout Boy and those other emocore assholes.

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….

The song was cool.

The video, however, no less gay than an ‘albatross’.

It may be blasphemous but it bring Dragonforce to mind.

Probably the only Yang-wee song I ever liked.

That lead singer has the most disproportionate face in metal history. Outside of a dwarf, that is.

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.

Ha, that was really bad. It reminds me of an awful Savatage video I saw the other day with a midget.

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….

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

Why is he playing a left-handed guitar right-handed? Trying to imitate Hendrix?

it’s nice to have reminders that even talented people can be incredibly, profoundly lame
