Music Video of the Day: Hungry by Lita Ford (1990, directed by Jesse Dylan)


Here are the lyrics to Lita Ford’s Hungry:

My nylons are melting down my legs 
Your heart is pounding at my throat 
I can’t catch my breath 
I lost it when your fingertips 
Ran down my back and up my neck 
Your kiss makes me feel like this 
I’m so hungry for your sex 
I’m so hungry for your sex 
I got an appetite for love tonight 
I wanna taste your sweet thing 
I wanna feel the sting of your sex, of your sex 
My body all painted lipstick red 
We ripped the sheets right off the bed 
My fingernails left fiery trails 
Across your back, oh, tell me baby 
How’d you like that little pussycat scratch 
I’m so hungry for your sex 
I’m so hungry for your sex 
I got an appetite for love tonight 
I wanna taste your sweet thing 
I wanna feel the sting of your sex, of your sex 
I’m so hungry for your sex 
I’m so hungry for your sex 
I’m so hungry for your sex 
I got an appetite for love tonight 
I wanna taste your sweet thing 
I wanna feel the sting of your sex, of your sex 
I’m so hungry for your… 

I’m not sure how you go from those lyrics to Alice in Wonderland, though Wonderland in this video is portrayed as being a very dark place.  While Alice explores, Lita Ford writhes in a shallow pool of water.  How it all links up is anyone’s guess.

This video was directed by Jesse Dylan, who also did videos for Lenny Kravitz and 3rd Bass.

Enjoy!

Music Video of the Day: Hungry by Winger (1988, directed by ????)


What do we have here?

00:12 — Newlyweds speeding on a curvy mountain road?  What could go wrong?

00:23 — There go the brakes!

00:31 — That sharp turn will look familiar to anyone who has ever seen the Duke boys outrun old Roscoe.

00:36 — It’s true what they say.  Right before you die, you hear the opening of a bad 80s song.

00:50 — I’ve gotten worst cuts from bumping my head on a low doorway.

00:57 — Dude, did you just leave your wife behind in the car?

00:59– This is Winger.  Kip Winger got his start as a backup musician and was a member of Alice Cooper for two years.  Until Nirvana changed the face of music, Winger was responsible for some of the most generic hits of the 1980s.

01:21 — How long until we get a shot of the man sitting alone on that same swing?

01:32 — “Look, I’m spinning around with my guitar!  Just like we did in practice!”

01:50 — “I remember how much we loved this wall.”

01:59 — It took 37 seconds to go from swinging together to swinging alone.

02:08 — Nobody came to the wedding but she’s going to go ahead and throw the bouquet anyway.

02:20 — It might be easier for the first responders to do their job if Winger would get out of the way.

02:46 — GUITAR!

03:07 — “My wife’s dead.  Time to learn how to play an instrument!”

03:15 — Watch out, he’s driving again.

03:22 — Did he ever figure out why his brakes out went out in the first place?  This might be a case for Jim Rockford.

03:36 — They still haven’t put out the fire?  Is this what my tax dollars are paying for?

03:38 — I would be pissed off too.  Put out the damn fire!

03:58 — That dude cannot drive.

04:12 — How does he keep doing this shit without getting a scratch on him?

04:27 — “How am I going to get home?”

To call Winger a “hair metal” band is probably an insult to hair metal bands but they did have a few hits.  They also got on the nerves of Metallica’s Lars Ulrich and Mike Judge, the creator of Beavis and Butthead.

Enjoy!
