We don’t often promise you that we will give you something that will make you laugh out loud. That is just too much pressure on us, quite frankly. Maybe you are having a bad day, and laughter is the LAST thing on your mind.
Sure, it is our goal to make you giggle, but we don’t guarantee it.
Today is different.
We feel so confident that you will find this funny that we almost called this post, “Out Loud Laughter WILL Occur”.
Anyone who knows anything about music knows that the 80’s brought utter goodness to both the lyrics and the videos of the songs produced back then.
However, even knowing the genius of the 80’s for its musical magic, nothing could have prepared us for this video.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, let us present to you the *literal* version of Total Eclipse of the Heart by Bonnie Tyler.
All I can really say is THANK YOU!!! I needed that. Where do you ladies find this stuff??? OMG!! I’ll be watching that all.day.long.
“Douchebags”
“You shouldn’t fence at night, you’ll hurt the gymnasts.”
“Arthur Fonzarelli’s been cloned!”
I mean, really? So much awesomeness!
We have honestly watched it like 100 times already. The fencing at night made me cry with laughter, and Lisa loved the Arthur Fonzarelli part! 🙂
OMG!!!! The funniest thing I’ve seen, I think I may have just peed my pants! (not really, okay maybe, wait, I am okay, I think) that was freaking hilarious!!! I had just woken up, check my email, saw there was a new Dose post, so, of course, I had to come check it out, I LOVE it!!!! must share it everywhere!!! Happy Tuesday!
So glad it delivered the laugh we were hoping it would Amber! 🙂 And hey, if pee in your pants laughter is wrong, then we don’t want to be right! 😉
Somehow I had never seen the video until today, and this has to be the best introduction to it! Wow, that is just about the most nonsensical music video, and revised lyrics were awesome. Yay, for crazy 80s music videos that make no sense!
Right, Bev?! So much fun in every way! 🙂
Just need to say THANK YOU ladies, seriously I have a long day ahead of me today (husband and kids are home all day with Election Day) and I so needed this. Seriously thank you a million times over!! 🙂
Oh man, kids and hubby home all day?? That is the worst! So glad this gave you a good laugh to start the day! 🙂
Okay. I.Am.Dying. This was my all time favorite song. I loved all things Total Eclipse of the Heart and now, I am frightened. Did I really never notice that there were dancing ninjas? And was fencing big at that time? You did not fail. I was laughing out loud and what’s even better is that the rest of my family was looking on and came to see what I was laughing at and then they were frightened and asked, “What are you watching?” I might have to watch this again if the day goes south because it is that funny.
Oh yeah, we watch it multiple times a day when necessary! I guess I never really payed enough attention to the original video, but I have always loved this song, too! 🙂
That was sooooooo funny! So much awesome!!
Glad you liked it Kim! 🙂
OMG! I watche dtha twine you shared in on FB. It is absolutely hilarious!
So much fun! We just love it! 🙂
I’ve seen this before, but it’s so worth it to watch again. Hilarious!
Totally agree! Can’t imagine it ever getting old!
Lmbo and you know the other day I was watching a scary movie and this song came in my mind I was like turn around….turn around and started to sing the song
LOL Kita! I will say that I often find myself thinking of different lyrics in this song! 🙂
LMAO!!!! Thanks for the laugh, ladies!
You are quite welcome Shell! 🙂
OMG - have never seen this one - loved that song way back when, but this is amazing! Loved “blind possessed choir boys” and “mullet with headlights.” Seriously - laugh-out-loud funny (at work)! And to watch this makes you question if Bonnie Tyler actually knew what she was singing about?! Or the producers of the video clearly had a different interpretation of that song! Guess I should have done the drugs! LOL
It does kind of make you wonder about the real meaning of the song, right?! So glad you liked it! 🙂
On one hand I’m going to get you two for sticking this darn song into my head today but on the other hand the video is funny as heck!!!
You have to take the daylong earworm with the awesome entertainment, right?! 😉
That was hilarious. Each line was better than the last. “Mullet with headlights?” Oh my goodness!
We totally agree Stephanie! It just kept getting better and better! 🙂
I’ll never think of that song the same way again. I was weirded out! Have a blessed day!
It definitely gives it a whole new meaning, right Vicki! 😉
Thank you - I totally needed a laugh this morning!!!
You are quite welcome Kim! We aim to please! 🙂
Okay, my stupid work computer won’t let me watch it but I’ve seen it before and omigoodness it’s so freaking hilarious! Have you seen any of the other literal videos? Too funny (most of them). Thanks, ladies.
And for the record, I do usually laugh when I read your posts…but you sure know how to get serious, too!
This was the first and only one we had seen Heather, but we will definitely be checking out the rest of them FOR SURE!! 🙂
As advertised! Laughed out loud! Hilarious!
Yay! Our satisfaction guarantee rating can remain at 100%! 🙂
Yes you did make me laugh out loud, multiple times. Thanks!
So glad! 🙂
Funniest video ever. Even though I was duly warned, I took a gulp of coffee just before the fencer said “Gold dust in my fancy mask” and nearly sent a spray of coffee all over my kitchen. Thanks for a laughing-til-I-cry start to the day!
Oh yeah Mo, all liquids are unsafe while watching this…we tried to warn you! 😉
Good laugh, thank you for doing this.
You are quite welcome! 🙂
“Emo kid just threw slow mo dove at me..That means he’s flipping me the bird!” lol
xoxo,
KG
We love that line, too KG! 🙂
Bahahaahhaahha… GENIUS! The creator needs a parade in their honor.
Right?! 🙂 We are obsessed!
I was okay until flipped me the bird. I can’t watch anymore. The tears and laughter will ruin my makeup and I’m at work. Oh, gosh. I’m not going to be able to concentrate now.
We totally understand Carli! Hopefully you can treat yourself to a full-on makeup running laugh fest when you get home! 😉
Oh man! It didn’t take me long. In the first 30 seconds. The part about dangling balls, and is it a metaphor? I laughed out loud. Money back guarantee here.
So glad Tamara! We knew anyone who dresses as Debbie Gibson would love it! 🙂
LOL. Picturing you guys watching it over and over, just like me!
Because, right??!! One time is not enough to catch all the greatness! 🙂
Thank you for the giggles!!
You are quite welcome! 🙂
OMG this is hilarious!! Thanks for the laughs!! (as usual 🙂
Our pleasure Nellie! 🙂
I had to wait all day to watch this because my company’s IT filter blocked the video. Perfect way to end my day!! I bow down to the Dose Girls! Thank you, thank you!
What is wrong with your office? They just don’t want their employees having any fun, do they? You should probably protest! 😉
OMG my and my friend Renee have just cracked up at this.. This is to pay me back for making you cry earlier isn’t it??
It really only seemed fair! 😉 Glad you and Renee liked it! 🙂
YES!!! Love love love!! All I need that and the rest of the Footloose tracks and I am HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!!
Can you even imagine how totally awesome the Footloose video would be done this way??!!
Pee-worthy. Seriously. Thank you for the laugh. Much needed. And seriously? How BAD is that video! No kidding. Bad stuff.
So glad you enjoyed it…you definitely deserve a laugh! 🙂
Oh my! This is just too too funny! Don’t think I will ever be able to listen to the original without thinking of this! Thank you ladies for the laugh!
I feel the same way…I will never hear the song the same way again, but I don’t even care because I love this so much! 🙂
That was hilarious! Where on earth do you guys find this stuff?!!!
People who love us share it with us Michelle, so we can then share it with you! 🙂
Oh. My. Goodness. That is AWESOME! That seriously is laugh out loud funny. I was sitting on the couch watching this, and my husband was looking at me like, “Who the heck literally laughs out loud about stuff on the Internet anymore?” I just told him he didn’t understand.
Did you make him watch it? My hubby, who prides himself on laughing at nothing I think is funny, did honestly laugh out loud at this! 🙂
You have set the bar really high for yourselves, ladies. This was absolutely awesome. Love, love, love!
So glad you liked it Dana!! 🙂 We aim to please!
What the effing crap! You girls crack me up!
Thanks Adrienn! We definitely like to know that! 🙂
What an awesome laugh! Arthur Fonzarelli has been cloned!!! lol lol lol
So glad you loved it Leah! That line is one of our favorites, too! 🙂
OMG, I was laughing so hard that the husband just shushed me. I can’t decide which part was best…but the flying choir boy may just have to be it.
The flying choir boy did me in, too! Love that your hubby shushed you! 😉 That is a sign of a good laugh!
Man, I had a crappy day today. I owe you ladies HUGE for ending my day with a big laugh. That was the BEST! xo
You are so welcome Stephanie! After a crappy day, you deserve some happiness, right?! 🙂
Beyond funny! The level of creativity is great. Too many hilarious parts to single out one. I will definitely be looking at this again and sharing it.
So glad you enjoyed it Alison! We recommend sending it to everyone you know! 😉
Thank you! I so needed that laugh this week! I used to love that song way back when, LOL. I think I love this version even more.
We love it even more, too! Didn’t think that was actually possible, but it is! 🙂 So glad you enjoyed it!
You girls are THE BEST THE BEST BEST BEST for posting this hilarity!! One of the funniest few minutes I’ve had in a long time!!
So so glad you liked it Karen!! We love it, too! 🙂
I’m dying!!! I so needed that laugh!! I used to LOVE that song and admittedly danced a solo lyrical to it in high school. I assure you. It was not good. LOL!!!
We feel like we need a video of the lyrical solo Adrienne…you know, for the blog! 😉 So glad you enjoyed this! 🙂
‘What the effing crap
that angel guy just felt me up!’
Best line in a song…EVER!!
I can’t thank you enough for sharing this. I’ve been suffering from depression today and this actually helped a lot.
