Is this a contender for most unintentionally hilarious “what were they thinking?!” pop video for massive major-label star? To her credit, Tina doesn’t look convinced by the whole thing!

It's watchable.

The Gelding and the Gilf...

It was the same era that gave us Cher on a battleship - the first time lady rock that had previously been whining hippies or cute fashion models caught up with the stadium-power of the guys like Prince & Bryan Adams. It was bound to be weird as these women didn't have guitars to hide behind, this being an era still a few years away from the DJ revolution.

Worth noting too, that film clip was basically acted out live before millions with one of the greatest stage performances of any decade https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JspmgPtAFMg&t=12s

And at her best  youtube.com/watch?v=2rJGX8uqoL8&

thanks for those, especially the reminder that Tommy is a wonderfully crazy film! 

I don't think it's as bad as the fact two colossuses brought us this:

(the silent video version being a possible contender in the internet's best video thread  youtube.com/watch?v=BHkhIjG0DKc&)(

Before checking your link, I had a hunch that it was going to be that one 😃

Fun trivia - the Michael Caine / Steve Martin film “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” was initially conceived as a vehicle for Jagger and Bowie based on the popularity of their double act in the Dancin’ in the Street video. The mind truly boggles 

that silent video version is indeed a work of absolute genius, thanks 

It is in't it. Everything about it is so true to the operatic drama scale, KR did a fantastic job of it I think and I think TT's scene is among the best bits - the face off with Oliver Reed is amazing, imagine filming that scene.

I think Ann-Margret remains the only leading  actor Oscar nominee in an entirely singing role, for Tommy. 

we digressed very quickly

I think “The Best” warrants some discussion. Is she a horse-spirit, or reincarnation of a horse? Is she in Hangar 18 ?

Why does the white haired sax player have no face?

It is very confusing, all of it 

I'm pretty sure the saxophonist and the horse are the same guy.

'The Best'? As far as beautiful women dancing with horses goes - not even close  youtube.com/watch?v=UZ_JArt_DuI&
