When I saw that a person had posted something called "Worst Music Video Ever" on YouTube, nothing could hold back my curiosity. I was rewarded with a very strong contender for that title.

The song is "Losing You." The singer, Jan Terri. Bless her heart. In 1993, she was dreaming of rock stardom. I give Jan credit for chasing her dreams. Unfortunately, they got away.

The video for "Losing You" actually begins with some promise. The camera gives us a sweeping panoramic shot of Lake Michigan and the beautiful Chicago skyline. Things go downhill from there. I should point out that, not long after the release of "Losing You," MTV decreased its airing of music videos by 36.5% between 1995 and 2000. Coincidence?

But wait, there's more from Jan Terri!
