Televandals, ‘Good For Nothing’
If there's one thing we've all learned from Pink and Eminem, it's that you can never go wrong lampooning absurd pop-culture trends in your video. In their now-award-winning mini-flick, Boston's Televandals clown on everything from Snuggies and Sham-Wows to penis pills and weathermen — things that are, as the song suggests, good for nothing. But in addition to a catchy tune, great coloring, a Massachusetts State House cameo, and thoughtful (if not quasi-didactic) concepts, the one thing that pushes this vid over the top is the sexy tattoo'd chick who beds the lucky guitar player in the end.
