I remember seeing the video for "Rock Me Tonite" and thinking nothing odd about it. Just a star doing what stars did in the mid-1980's. A bit over-the-top, maybe, but big deal... Billy Squire was a rock-and-roll star.
Dancing was kind of a thing (and a fashion) back then, with Flashdance and Footloose to name a couple. We were being shown that it's ok for men to dance.
Even at the age of 14, I knew rock videos weren't to be taken literally... that there were lot of peoples' input, and sometimes the artist was the one that got the least say in their videos.
