Hey guys, I just need a little help with an article I'm writing.
Can any of you suggest funny Canadian music videos you may have seen?
It can be anything from sophisticated political / philosophical humor right up to toilet comedy. Heck, it could also included those videos that you're "laughing at, not with."
I always thought Gob's "I hear you calling" was great a video. Zombies! Soccer!

Let's go to the mall and the under appreciated Sandcastles in the Sand come to mind.

Any list of funny Canadian music videos that does not have Chuggo on it is not a legitimate list.

NWS, Chuggo is awesome!

Bryan Adams -- Heaven.
Bryan, accompanied by a band that is on TV, sings to an auditorium of TVs. In the end we find out it was all just a dream.

Platinum Blonde
In this video a guy in the band is openly laughing at the corny dancing and just stands there watching the other guys in the band.

For some reason, it wouldn't let me embed any youtube. However, Nova Heart by the Spoons was far beyond its time! :)

I met Scott MacDonald in university (he became their keyboardist after their hit period).
Being the keyboardist of a Canadian band on the down slope of their popularity apparently wasn't very lucrative. Either that or he just really like working for my buddy's Student Painter business.

I always thought this song was hilariously awesome, yet i had no idea it had an equally funny, not to mention ridiculous, video.
you can take my thanks on your original post and multiply it by a thousand

Glass Tiger's "Don't Forget Me When I'm Gone" video is certainly one you'll laugh at...and not with. It's the Canadian Rick Roll if ever there was one.
