It was the video that made me a fan!!

Even when it came out though, I thought it was quite funny!

In this unofficial BJ biography I have, Jon says it was the biggest piece of #$#@ he'd ever seen. He said it made the band look like a#$holes (I'd agree it doesn't give you any indication of what the band are really like unlike the Prayer and Bad Name vids)...

As for the Only Lonely video, he said the exact same thing and said the director put his cousin in the video 7 times while Richie only appears onscreen twice for about 2 seconds in the whole thing (which is true actually).

just a poll do u think its the worst video ever or not?
well you have to take in the factor that MTV was only on for a few years..... The quality of videos back then are laughable...
How about the video/song called... Video killed the radio star???
Talk about cheesy, and it was the first video ever to be played on MTV...
But It's come along way...
Now all you see is Boobs and Butts and mOney
But the best BJ Video ever for me is:
Wanted .. I can watch that a million times and say, Hey I don't remember that being in the video :P
But going back to Runaway.... it made them a bigger hit because people got to look at the band , and I must say seeing jon in those tights back then, did something...lololol

Definitely not. There are much worse music videos. Hell, it is not even BJ's worst video... have you seen the Everyday video with that blinding white teeth of Jon *shudder*...
