Extremely Cringeworthy University Music Video

‘There’s loads for you to do at LSU!,’ so proclaim these energetic, poor impressionable students. I wont lie; this is one of the best shit things I’ve seen, and I didn’t think it would but it got progressively better [sic] after the catchy chorus-line. I know this video is being viewed out of context, but it really can’t have been much better in it. Prepare to have your time wasted:

Apparently the Loughborough University students’ union made this in the hopes it would boost its event and meetings attendance, but that plan backfired as the viral video became branded as one of the worst videos ever posted on YouTube, which is a pretty soul-destroying criticism considering there is nothing that remotely compares to the amount of uploads the site handles on an hourly basis. Not only was the feedback so bad that the Loughborough Union disabled the comments section, but the record label, Virgin EMI have disabled the audio track, permanently muting the video indefinitely. Ouch.

Thank goodness for those actor release forms, eh LSU? These scared execs should come out of ‘Ellellelless eleleleleless-u’ stronger and less stupidly enthusiastic about their singing abilities at least — it’s a good thing. Possibly… I wonder if the editor is out of rehab yet?
