10 Good Songs That Were Made AMAZING By Their Music Video

10. We're Not Gonna Take It - Twisted Sister

From the time they were playing the rowdy clubs of New York, Twisted Sister were always known for their glamtastic look. Whenever you walked into one of their gigs, the band would rip you to shreds all while dressed to the 9's in the best neon and glittered threads they could find. While the music always kicked ass, the marriage between the look and the sound needed to come together in order for the band to truly explode.

When MTV was still in its infancy, Twisted Sister became darlings of the network thanks to their video for "We're Not Gonna Take It." On record, the song is a typical cry against authority, but the zany nature of the video really made the track. With the scenario of a rocker's father being thrown around like a cartoon character, the song became the unofficial theme song for any young kid who ever felt stepped on by their parents.

Since then, the video has become a great nostalgia trip for metalheads as well as a great gateway song for kids who are just getting acclimatized to the hard rock genre. Twisted Sister always had a great following, but their takeover was the perfect combination of looks and hooks.
