Head Over Heels: Literal Video Version

[@rogerwilco1777]

Whenever I hear this on the radio I cant help singing, "Now I'll walk away and head over here"..

[@MegDent]

Now I’m floating back down to the ground floor, I never realized I could fly so easily…

[@ankiking]

I laughed so hard at that part in the song! 😂

[@minacapella8319]

I didn't know i... could fly so easily 😱

[@AnAdorableWombat1]

Lmaooo! I always hear, “Business in front, party in back!” 😂😂😂😂😂

[@kmonster8565]

I know these lyrics more than the actual song's lyrics.

[@Dremag_Gaming]

It's been about 12 years since I was here. Nice to see this is still doing good.

[@darkl3ad3r]

Same Dan. Was scrolling through my KZbin liked playlist and went deep. 14.5 years later remembering this old video with my wife. We were just young 21 year olds when this came out. Great times.

[@RemmikRotus]

I’ve been with my wife almost 12 years. We were just cranking the big home stereo to the actual version of this song and made me think of the literal video. She found it funny but in a hardy har har kind of sarcastic way.

[@lilithjade4363]

oh my god same

[@gutshotgreaser]

Been looking for old KZbin heads like you guys to ask, does anyone remember the Jingle Bell Rock one? It was so good! They even made two versions of it back to back just like the Darryl and John versions. Both were the most hilarious things I had ever heard! Wish someone would bring it back

[@redwingtigergirl]

“Is that Dave Coulier?” gets me every time!

[@nancyomalley6286]

Now I know I wasn't the only one who thought he was Dave Coulier when the video came out in the 80's.

[@nyssakeith]

I hear it in my head every time this song plays 😂

[@deenamccarthy6177]

Short Boring Dave Coulier wishes he was as Hot as Ian Stanley!

[@omgiheartpie]

"is that Dave Coulier" "Throw this away" LOL I love how his voice changes in each, from low to high and then low to high. This song reeks of win

[@GrizzyLatrizzy]

I haven't seen this in years! It was removed for so long, glad to see it back.

[@samdiponio1007]

I love the cool new sweater for only 40 dollars. And it's funny because when I watched the real video, I thought the guy was Dave Coulier too, as he looked on Full House.

[@zoeisabelle2160]

Okay but why did the 'I think it's dumb' part match Curt's lips perfectly 😂

[@precisecalibre6986]

cause the lyrics are "nothing gets done" which would sync the mouth movements pretty well.

[@raggedyanarchist]

"Now I'm walking and I'll head over here" was absolutely perfect.

[@sapphire7424]

Been singing this version for donkeys years. Glad to see it back on yt. Best literal ever made ❤

[@TyroneSlothrop71]

This video is so hilarious! In fact in the original there's quite a bunch of absurdities, and your lyrics just highlight the funniest moments. Thank you, mate, very much appreciated!

[@acrhivalvids390]

This is my favorite video ever!!!! Whenever I need a good laugh I watch HoH Literal😂 BTW I’m a HUGE Tears For Fears fan. I have front row center for one of their summer 2023 shows and I plan to sing your lyrics during HoH. 😅

[@kmcamike]

Update May 2023, 532 people don't have a stack of books to return.

[@JunKazamaFan]

I really love these "Literal Version" videos! They're all terrific and hilarious, including this one! My favorite parts of this one are, "When I open this, the cards all fly out.", "I'm gunna pull a gun on you, but don't be afraid. I'm silly, so...", and, "Do you like my mullet. Business in front, party in back!"! I love every part of this, though! Also, I like how the guy in the video looks confused when he "floats up to the next level in a magic chair"! Keep up the great work, DustoMcNeato!

[@AnAdorableWombat1]

“Is that Dave Coulier?” “A specific book about a Rabbi and black guy” “Do you like my, MULLLLEETTTT” “Business in front, party in back!” 😂😂😂😂

[@LuigiPlaysBass]

Hands down best literal version of any song. You SHOULD win an award for this. 5 stars.

[@jcastanza]

Haha “is that Dave Coullier” best part!

[@monkadelic2]

When 'head over heels' and 'Take on me' pop into my head these days I hear the literal lyrics. Both brilliant.

[@Norritt7167]

I literally always go back to listen this once a year or so.

[@BugJoJo75]

you did justice to them without mocking the eff out of the song LOVE IT

[@PM-lz4cj]

I have replaced these lyrics for the real ones, anytime I hear this song. Best you guys ever did.

[@ToPoucoMeLixando]

I love these videos. In this I laughed out loud at the "business in front, party in back".

[@AnAdorableWombat1]

😂😂😂😂 my favorite part!

[@downhomesunset]

We all wore these in the 1980s

[@carabean78]

One of my favorite songs/videos from the 80s. BRILLIANT literal interpretation! I love love LOVE it...and your voice is great too!

[@snivylink2119]

oh my god the guy even sounds like roland

[@vanessapurdy4143]

for almost 15 years this has been the only version of this song i know the lyrics to. a truly iconic work of genius imo thanks for making this

[@Fiddlemaster56]

How in the WORLD do you get your voice to sound so close to him? In all your videos you're right on. Not to mention you can sing and hit the same tough notes. Incredibly talented!

[@macreviews94]

This may be the best literal video I have ever seen... I've watched it like 50 times and it still makes me smile, good job

[@bcorbin]

This is by far my favorite literal video!!!

[@RaccoonGaming2112]

I just found this and it's tormenting me, stuck in my head 😂

[@carabean78]

One of my favorite 80s songs/videos of all time. The literal one is AMAZING! Watch it all the time. Thank you! :)

[@Roberto4ever]

There are certain 80’s songs that give me an overwhelmingly painful and bittersweet sense of nostalgia. This is definitely one of them.

[@joshgellis3292]

It probably is in fact, Dave Coulier. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@McDiddy9999]

I know these lyrics better then the actual lyrics. Thank you, DustoMcNeato!

[@reneh5]

What makes this video different from other literal versions is that is not only a very good adaptation of the singer to the original one but also add some creative phrases and they are told in a funny way like "you have really big glasses" or "I wish that they were better" when refering to the books, that has nothing to do with the video but it adds funny value. I just love it.

[@KameSennin4209]

I've been looking for this since about 2009

[@mlinn1980]

I am a HUGE fan of Tears For Fears, and this is my favorite of theirs, but you are amazing :P

[@eduardo_corrochio]

How am I just finding this today? This is hilarious, and so well done. I see there are a handful on this YT channel but it seems other people do literal videos as well. Amazing that I never stumbled upon this before. This is like when I first found the Star Wars 1977 "Bad Lip Reading" video and was laughing like a mental patient.

[@AbsoluteDemonling]

Oh man, this never gets old! I must have watched it five times already! It's so funny when his mouth actually mathes what you're singing ("I never realized") "I'm returning a book" always gets me, though.

[@CiscoDuck]

You sound just like Roland! :) Love it!

[@hurlyburly5395]

You have really big glasses my be my favourite moment of all time.

[@JessicaClariceElsener]

I usually go a year or so, then remember this exists. Watch it 10-20× in a row. Rinse, repeat.

[@mariflame1821]

😅 first time I watch this... 😅 Love TFF and this song

[@justpaul899]

So glad to see these videos back on-line, on Dustin's page where they belong. One of my all time favorites :)

[@Dremag_Gaming]

They've been back for some time. The only one that didn't have issues with the actual group was A-ha! (Which they enjoyed it)

[@ken1w]

Your "original" literal videos are the best. You know how to write good (and funny) lyrics. And most important of all, you can actually sing as well as the original artists (and even sound like them). This one is my favorite; hope you get to do some more...

[@troy65]

Absolutely BRILLIANT! :))))))

[@callmeanarchitect]

Haha, I love the original song, but this literal version tickled me :) Fantastic job of matching the vocal style to the original btw! (In your other vids too)

[@bijou201]

"is that dave coulier" LOL This is one of the best literal video versions, good Job!

[@freedomthroughspirit]

Dave Coulier! 😆😆😆

[@abundantlyjoyful77]

AWESOME! God bless you DustoMcNeato. 2.18 the gun part was the best and singing all the way back down of course. It made me feel that once-in-a-while nice sensation that life is always worth living! Being SILLY is what life is actually all about!

[@garymichael1950]

As someone who has written a ton of parody songs I know how hard it is to do..it's even harder to make it really funny..it's even harder to make it funny for almost 4 minutes..You nailed it. Brilliant stuff. Do a few hundred more.

[@reneewhetzel]

dude, i actually added this to my regular playlist and i've shared it on facebook. everyone needs to see this. you're a comic genius! :)

[@aReallySwellGuy]

I’m probably 1000 of these views over the course of my life

[@prettystevie]

This was absolutely hysterical. A great version of a good song(even though it was always so hard to understand). This makes it better!

[@roninhood1027]

The best version of this song, hands down!

[@aimhigh2k2]

This is one of the funniest things on KZbin ever! Since you started this whole thing, no one else has come close because at least you sound like the singers. lol. That's respect :)

[@paddymcevoy1566]

This is brilliant. Actually find myself singing these lyrics when listening to the original. Well done!!

[@bratattack5]

I'll never be able to go to the library again without thins song in my head. Ruddy brilliant.

[@BruceAlarie]

ive never heard of a literal video and im older than the solar system! what have i been missing!! awesome

[@nnylasoR]

This made me LOL over and over again. I especially liked "...mullet...business in front, party in back..." !! And hahaha@ "now I'll walk away and head over here..." and "Is that Dave Coulier? " Thanks for the big laughs! Gonna go share this on my FB and check out your other "works" now.... *high-five!* Blessings...

[@kebas239]

The "check out my brand new sweater" part always gets me. I JUST BOUGHT IT - ITS FROM THE GAP!

[@rmhartman]

The voice is spot on

[@JoseDelgado-il2nj]

Love this song since i was a kid but man this version will stay with you forever once you hear it good job man

[@yourliver1]

I cant believe this only has 2 and a half million views. The world is missing out.

[@unclejohnthezef]

Welcome back, Dustin!!!😊

[@coria6231]

The best masterpiece I've heard so far

[@yoyodynepropulsionsystems]

This is the gold standard of literal videos, absolutely brilliant.

[@EdnaFrom85]

You are a genius, whoever created this!!!! "Now I'll walk away and I'll head over here" "When I open this all the cards will fly out I saw Ghostbusters, this copied that Now, now, now play the keyboard!"

[@SourGir1986]

Anytime I try to sing along with this song if I hear it playing, I automatically start with "I got a stack of books to return." It has completely replaced the original first line.

[@FastJimmyC]

My sister and I always did this to 80's songs when we were kids. Great video, thanks for the laughs :)

[@gunarmagni6276]

i wanted to be mad , because this is 1 of my very favorite from that era , but that was just brilliant . great job for sure .

[@sixfoot0]

dude that was fuggin neat!! .I had to watch it again cause I was laughing so hard! do some more please!

[@xapaga1]

Though I knew (or half knew) the original lyrics back in the 1980s, this "literal video" version was so very convincing that I nearly believed it was the real thing. I'll look for other songs too, starting with "China Girl". Thank you.

[@doubanjiang]

Beautifully done. This makes me laugh aloud every time I watch it.

[@TonySafina]

I was looking for the MTV version but found this first. Really cool stuff!!

[@jrlaven48]

I have seen alot of Literal Videos. This is the Best. Thanks for Sharing.

[@XarraXonna]

I think this is my favorite literal video ever, Great job making it :)

[@karlwho1]

Ialmost stopped it, then you hooked me! I LOVE it! Thanks! Gonna check your other stuff too. Thanks for a much needed laugh!

[@killersammy1]

2012 - Hey, cool library. 2022 - What kind of place is this, and what are those things on the shelves??

[@LunaCosmia]

Omg. Whoever is singing is actually really good! I think that makes it even better!

[@Laughinopoulous]

Of all the "literal version" videos on KZbin, this one is the best!

[@sixedheart]

Man, I've watched it I don't know how many times and I still love it.

[@arae8419]

please do some more of these! yours are so much better than anyone elses and i cant stop watching. i like your versions better than the originals

[@TheeFinchLynch]

"Now I'll walk away and head over here. I'll check the files out, when I get over here.' Awesome work. All of it.

[@kgesq4]

Business in the front party in the back! Definitely in my top 2!

[@K_bell_]

FAVOURITE VIDEO OF ALL TIME RIGHT HERE.

[@GuitarristA1quimista]

HAHAHAHAH!!! THIS IS AWESOME! KUDOS 2 WHOEVER PUT THIS TOGETHER!

[@alternatereality85]

178 people didn't fall Head Over Heels with this video - I wasn't one of them - great stuff!

[@-DeScruff]

I clicked on this not paying attention then realized quickly something wasn't right... but I still enjoyed the song! - nice job!

[@rajivbhardwaj]

Ultimate song !!! this reminds me my school & college days.

[@VitronEspada]

Even though the person who made Total Eclipse of the Heart, or remade it, so to speak, has more hits (and that one is damned funny!), I really think that your the best literal video maker. That fact that they are really funny AND, maybe more importantly, you redid the music slightly and imitated the singers (All well, but your Bowie is great!) means you got the total package. Please do Sowing the Seeds of Love, by Tears for Fears, or any other video with Bowie in it!

[@suzeeq41]

Very very cute and imaginative. Great work, great singing!

[@hevymetal30]

I thought I would have quit watching after a few seconds, but it grabbed me and kept me watching...how the hell!

[@Amanda80shorrorlover]

These are so funny. I love the 80s it is my favorite era, but these videos really show how crazy there ideas are for music videos.

[@letigreferoce]

The vocals in this are spot on

[@stevieboy5588]

I'm "head over heels" with laughter! Very funny! Weird Al would be jealous of this production!

[@JacobyRondo946]

i lovvvvee this !!!! best literal video ive seen !! :)

[@760Gerard]

That made my day! I laughed till tears fell. Great video!

[@BANE2025]

this is the best i have ever seen... it cannot be done better.

[@lyrise1642]

fun fact i was here when separate ways came out. my dad showed me it. it was by far the best one but this and take on me are amazing too

[@mateusmatzensan]

"Check out my new sweater I just bought, it's from the Gap It was just forty dollars" - Hilarious! Very creative! :D

[@SequinedGBears]

BEAUTIFUL SONG!!!! I LOVE THIS ONE!!!
