Ace Of Base's "The Sign" Music Video Is SO WEIRD

I loved Ace of Base when I was growing up. Who didn't? The four-member Swedish pop group sure knew their way around a catchy tune. I decided to revisit Ace of Base’s “The Sign” music video recently after the song popped up on my iPod while I was out running errands; I hadn’t seen it in years! Let me tell you what, I had no idea what I was in for. “The Sign” music video has to be one of the weirdest music videos from the ‘90s. I’m serious: there's something truly bizarre happening in just about every frame… and I had completely forgotten about it somehow.

The clip’s awkward dancing, bad ‘90s fashion, and cheap special effects will probably be enough to get you howling… but if they’re not, the random couples passionately making out in the background of several scenes for no discernible reason will almost certainly do the trick. In other words, it’s perfect. I'll never forget about it again, not for as long as I live!

Below are just a handful of the weirdest moments from Ace of Base's "The Sign" visual. If you haven't seen it in a while (or *gasp* if you've never seen it), you need to check it out as soon as humanly possible. Trust me on this one.
