Music Videos That Remind Me of Eddie Munson
Quick disclaimer: these are NOT songs that make me think of Eddie or songs that I think Eddie would listen to. These are music videos where the performer themselves remind me of Eddie. I doubt he would even deign to listen to some of these, much less like them, but the energy is all very Eddie. Feel free to add your own in the reblogs :)
Hard to Handle—The Black Crowes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRcs_OzQb14)
Seriously, everything about lead singer Chris Robinson gives off Eddie vibes. The way he struts around the stage, his hand movements, that little smirk and head nod he does, the obvious annoyance from his bandmates when he screams in their faces for a laugh, the way he throws a fake rockstar hissy fit in his hotel room for the camera—so Eddie.
To Be With You—Mr. Big (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6-uJLteKek)
First off, this music video never fails to crack me up, because I think most people have heard this song and, unless they already knew what the band looked like, they'd be convinced that they looked like 90s hipsters. Instead, you get some metal hairband looking dudes. But anyway, if Chris Robinson encapsulates Eddie's attitude, Eric Martin grabs his look. He and Eddie could be related. Maybe not brothers, but weirdly close cousins with the same hairdo. He DOES have a couple Eddie moments, though. Specifically, the way he gestures at himself during the first chorus and the way he smacks his own hand down in the bridge before the video goes from black-and-white to color. (Also, if you like Hellcheer, tell me it doesn't make you think of how he feels about Chrissy.)
Movement—Hozier (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSye8OO5TkM)
The main focus of this video is the dancing (as well it should be), but that doesn't have anything to do with Eddie. It's more the story it's telling about a man simultaneously chasing, running from, and haunting himself that hits really close to Eddie's character arc for me. Especially since one of the men is clearly beaten and bloody.
The Warrior—Scandal ft. Patty Smyth (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47y5bo8wtqM)
This one is a little harder to place. I think it's just the theatricality and weirdness of the video that does it. And the costumes. They give off a low-budget 80s fantasy movie vibe, and I mean that as a compliment. Plus, you can't tell me Eddie wouldn't have the hots for Patty Smyth (he's very bisexual in my headcanon, and I stand by that).
Mad World—Tears for Fears (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1ZvPSpLxCg)
Eddie would objectively hate this, which absolutely cracks me up. While we all like to put in fics that Steve likes Tears for Fears, reality is that this is much more of a Jonathan song. But something about the dichotomy of Curt Smith crooning out a window in depression while Roland Orzabal gets his vogue on in the background seems like a very Eddie thing to me. I think he would want to use darker, more fantastical imagery, but I think that's the sort of tone he'd go for—something serious upfront, something totally bizarre in the background.
Every Teardrop is a Waterfall—2Cellos (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XleaVcy4he8)
There isn't even any singing in this one, and, obviously, the instrument they're playing isn't a guitar, but something about Stjepan Hauser's goofy facial expressions feels so on-point to Eddie for me. Also, the sheer amount of skill it takes for him and Luka Sulic to achieve this is very reminiscent of Eddie's indescribably badass guitar playing on a song he'd have only had 2 weeks to learn.
