I need the segment with guessing band names from the new words as a series. That was so good. Joe you really killed this video, this was amazing

[@idalaursen8935]

Giant props to Alex for being able to maintain camera and eye contact🫣

[@nostalgiaprincess]

jaxon needed to be in this episode. he’d put you all to shame

[@timalice-2833]

Fun fact, the lead singer of Toto is the son of composer John Williams. He was the singing voice for Simba in the Lion King and did the opening theme for the Gummi Bears cartoon.

[@tf1266]

Bobby Kimball or Steve Lukather?

[@timalice-2833]

@@tf1266 I’m not sure. With a lot of their work he’s listed as “lead and backing vocals”.

[@sarahpettipher1759]

My favourite part of this video was the alternative names for the bands, I was in tears lmao

[@aynber]

Love the AI art this time, and the alternate band names were hilarious. I was screaming Weird Al once I recognized the buckles. Ding dong, man, ding dong!

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

Martine yelling out random numbers to get to the B52's.... Typical Martine, right? 😂

[@MartineBeerman]

😂😂🫣🫣🙋🏻‍♀️

[@N0EL-7007]

The prince AI one is so cool. When Doves cry, purple rain, raspberry beret, and little red corvette all put together where you can easily tell but it’s still not too overwhelming.

[@tracipaul1576]

You can definitely tell I'm over 50, I guessed every one immediately! Because I was addicted to MTV in the 80's! Hilarious.😅😅😅

[@jinakaye]

10:40 MJ: Man in the Mirror, Thriller, Billie Jean (lit floors in the video), and possibly The Way You Make Me Feel (alley way)

[@N0EL-7007]

I was surprised no one pointed out the floor, it’s so iconic too.

[@egrosenesq]

Finally- a Duran Duran reference!!

[@rickyzee3154]

the biggest props need to go to the clasp at the front of Hayley's top

[@mosando]

The eternal MVP of all the videos

[@michaelmythology]

I don't know who gets more amped up, Martine or Izzyman. Them in a room together would be fun but dangerous!

20:53 Martine's eye roll here is glorious!

[@eveblackblood1739]

[@Reani71]

Asking someone who grew up in the 80s for his favorite 80s song is like telling me to estimate how many water drops there are in the Atlantic Oxean. my whole Spotify library is made of 80s songs.

[@amandaninemire1332]

I almost died when Alexander said "Aaahh !! Real Monsters" , he is hilarious!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@lavedadavis818]

"EVERYBODY WANTS TO RULE THE WORLD"...........On a long loop!! Never tired of hearing THAT song!!

[@RevanLockheart-]

They didn't have Jaxon cause he'd autowin.

[@futurepriestess2010]

Lady Fast Plane and the Dark Bloodbeaters should be some type of book or movie, I am just saying, that title is amazing!

[@lateramae]

Trevor must've been very happy when he guessed Devo correctly!!!

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

I am dying at the name Pew Pew Ouchie Flowers! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Jonathanstroud2011]

from Michael Jackson, to U2, Cyndi Lauper, and Madonna this is the best era of music

[@mozart2jazz]

Our House - Madness Rosanna - Toto Be Near Me - ABC Hold Me Now - Thompson Twins Is There Something I Should Know? - Duran Duran for starters - my 80s playlist has 350+ songs

[@andyweinberg8100]

AK-80s was one of the best segments you've ever had on this channel. Try to bring it or something similar back for future videos.

[@jsbhmm8232]

True. Very true.

[@christianboehlefeld5168]

Crack, Joe. The line from the song is Crack. A crick is either something you get when your back/neck is stiff (from 10,000 years in a lamp) or it is a creek while you're really far from urban sprawl.

[@eriuanamarie8189]

The fact that I knew the first one by the first picture is scary 😂 I love that song

[@Ironlantern723]

They should've switched the first and second clue, I wouldn't have got it from that one.

[@GaidinBDJ]

Oh, the Weird Al fakeout was one of the best I've seen on this show.

[@claireahedgespeth1254]

We need to do more music video screenshot trivia videos.... Do all decades. This was a great way to stump people

[@arokh72]

From here on in, I shall be calling roses "ouchie flowers".

[@rand0mn0sity14]

The “disco floor” for MJ was from Billie Jean.

[@TheDannyLolly]

Can we take a moment to acknowledge the legend that is Shane? My man’s knows his games, his movies AND his 80’s music. What a champ.

[@TheeGirlKB]

I love the section with the AI art! You guys should do 90’s & 2000’s

[@barcelona12ist]

6:24 Come on now, how can you not recognize George Michael here??? 🤯

[@davidpalahinjak8954]

More 80's music reaction videos please! 😃♥️🔥

[@mil2k11]

I was really impressed that they did so well. I grew up during the MTV era and didn't know a few. How was Alexander expected to concentrate? You know what I'm talking about

[@aliyaheubanks4477]

Rhythm nation is one of janets most popular album and successful 🙌 but as soon as he read it i know it was control because she released that first it sold instantly and ppl in the music industry was shock because its Michael little sister so 😅😂i knew yall was wrong

[@k-town873]

We need an Alexander vs Jayse duel

[@brentfelsinger4521]

😂😂😂 Alex rocking the Neverending Story theme at the end. Yes!

[@Deedric_Kee]

Just kept getting better and better. Very good 👍 . . . (Ouchie Flowers😂)

[@adder70-1]

For the jacket, I instantly said, "Bad", then when it was wrong was, I was like, that's the jacket. They can't be using parodies, can they? (Thinking immediately of Fat, because I'm a huge Weird Al fan.)

[@nikonlOl]

Man I just love Martine ^^

[@jahnabanana]

Trevor really the king of guessing something a million times then freezing up when it actually shows up. Here with Devo, the Taylor Swift one with Getaway Car...

[@jenniferhanson3671]

I LOVE the 80's!! I got from the 1st clue: Rick Astley "Never Gonna Give You Up"; Billy Joel "We Didn't Start The Fire"; Cyndi Lauper "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"; Wham! "Wake Me Up Before You Go Go"; Weird Al "Fat" (I was thinking MJ "Bad" at first, but they never showed a closeup of his jacket.. they did in Weird Al's video because the air blows up and breaks the buckles on the jacket! 😂) I got the name of Janet Jackson's album without the choices; I got the Whitney Houston's songs in order; the pictures of the songs by artist; and the last part with the wrong band names. This was fun! 😁

[@kealiimaxilom2465]

3:31 I got this immediately because of Capt Lou and his connection to the artist because there wrestlemania thing lol I love that I had an advantage due to Wwe trivia LOL

[@RevanLockheart-]

Yeah soon as it popped I knew. Do the Mario.

[@melanieannplans2666]

MAJOR Kudos to Alex for belting out The Neverending Story theme song at the end 😂

Love this episode! Great concept!

[@niles8102]

Every one in this video is HOT AF! (Yes, Joe. Even you!) Also, it's funny that Trevor got that one song right and he is dressed like the guy dancing in the music video 😂😂😂

Oh, that's sweet chin music!

[@Aadrian66]

“Edge of Seventeen” being my all time second favorite song, I was screaming the answer to the question about it’s meaning lol

[@billyjohn7846]

That was actually FUN to watch compared to most of those videos lately. I was joining in the game 🙌💯

[@Carmela-bixoxo]

Love Hayley and Martine. They always make me laugh.

[@jerryjanik480]

I have seen Weird Al twice in concert and once on my birthday

[@SilentBob731]

Did he play "Happy Birthday"?

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

It's crazy how many points of history are mentioned in We Didn't Start The Fire.

[@reneeg9406]

I was in 5th grade and my teacher played it for our history lesson. She split us into groups to try to pick out as many sports references, people, events, as possible. Then we discussed them in a little more detail. 😉

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

@@reneeg9406 That is so cool! That is an awesome history teacher! I wish I would've had history teachers using something like that to teach certain points of history like that!

[@hubertcasabuena7719]

Perhaps have them react to Wham! as a whole. I mean, it’s going to be 40 years since Make It Big’s release so why not take advantage of this opportunity and show them more of their library of songs

[@indade]

Trevor with the comeback

[@GeminiWolfstarGaming]

Nice going Martine for getting the completely correct order of Whitney Houston's songs! ✋

[@ArtByDesign80]

11:43 he in fact does not need to give you time…don’t buzz unless you have an answer! 🙄

[@silverlobo2135]

it is scary. I knew the answer to each question by the first clue. the AI drawing, or by the altered name. The only one that gave me a harder time was the Whitney Houston on Spotify question.

[@codekaizerin30]

4:12 Martine, you ok girl? 😂

😂😂😂 I’m sooo glad you marked this bc i had to rewatch it. My reaction of being stunned is SO genuine hahahahah

Amazing episode, Joe. The last bit with the new band names was so creative!

[@stijepko3205]

Eurovision 2024 react plese

[@BenjiSun]

That's Captain Lou Albano in the Cyndi Lauper video. If you watch retro WWF wrestling videos, then you might know who he was. He also starred in the Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling cartoon. I'm not surprised Shane Haste was the first and only one to recognize him.

[@tosweet68]

Martine always guesses a correct answer and then acts so surprised she got it right......

The story of him almost breaking his neck when a practice for his backflip failed is crazy. Dude's doctor told him to stop or risk paralysis and he just went back and nailed it anyways.
