Harry Hill's Take On Me (A-ha) - BBC Children in Need: 2013 - BBC

[@hamyshanky8794]

The original song was about love. This one is about a guy who steals a sausage. Truly amazing.

It is a parody for children in need

[@SirCraigius]

I love that Warwick Davis is playing the keyboard :)

Hewer on drums, Davis on keyboard, Hairy Bikers chasing Hill and Sinitta, Ellis, Mellor and Ferguson among them in the restaurant- this has way more star power than it needed, and I love it

I can't believe that I have only just found out about this! It's fantastic, great spoof

[@ODogMcGee]

BBC Producers: So how crazy do you want this video? Harry Hill: Yes

[@MrsSquidgeroo]

Just pure genius! British comedy rocks as well as helps unite everyone, even when covering something as sad as some of the stories covered in CiN...there will always be hope, and I for one will be a continual supporter of that! Harry, you're bonkers and for that I thank you!

[@MargarutaPotemcina-th2vp]

Просто лисий гном как и ты вообще мозгов у тебя нету

[@DidrickNamtvedt]

I'm Norwegian and I loved this spoof of A-Ha's classic music video. The original is timeless and really put Norway on the pop map and to see someone make a parody years later goes to show how iconic it is.

[@jakenevin25]

Where the fucks Norway

[@DidrickNamtvedt]

Jake Nevin It's the country to the left of Sweden, up to the far right from the UK and a part of the Scandinacian countries? Have you never heard of Norway? Without us, the very video displayed here would never exist.

[@jakenevin25]

***** I was joking maybe I came across a bit stron

[@hildeknarvik2440]

Me too. Norway forever🇳🇴.

[@conniediaz6456]

One of Norway's greatest exports!

[@theundeniablegem]

This is brilliant but I miss TV Burp a lot more now...

[@forgedtofight]

Haha TV Burp absolutely legendary, loved the one when the smurfs come on and fight each other

[@LowerRank5]

Same man They can bring back millionaire but not tv burp (Maybe on its 20th anniversary in 2021 they’ll bring it back like millionaire. Didn’t it start in 2001?)

[@andrewmorrice9139]

I miss Stouffer.

[@fluffybun6940]

So strange that this was how I was introduced to A-ha. Honestly just the best song of all time. Cheesy, but just brilliant. Will never fail to make me smile.

[@TheJayson8899]

Wow they caught that 80’s aesthetic insanely well for something in HD

[@elliottprice6084]

This is pure brilliance..To parody such a brilliant video so well is exceptional. Harry Hill is a master of silly humour. A comic genius. I miss TV Burp so much

[@kevshek]

Nice one BBC, welldone for not messing with the actual song and just putting a funny spin on the classic video. Great job!

[@MargarutaPotemcina-th2vp]

Ты чё вообще

[@terratec1001]

2:17 - "Fiiiight" It just wouldn't be proper Harry Hill without a fight ;)

[@tyntotales2880]

This is absolute genius, loved it when it was first aired and still brilliant today, comedy at its best. 😁

[@jamesrice21]

This is literally the best thing ever to happen on planet earth, ever.

[@boogiemeister9581]

I used to watch Harry Hill every week. Never missed it, sat down with the family and we were rolling.

[@sallylane8497]

I had forgotten how funny this was. Love Harry Hill

[@JoLiKMC]

This is _too good._ How does this not have more views and more comments? You got the original people from the music video to cameo _and_ Warwick Davis! It's _too good!_

[@ellisharvey9588]

Words can’t describe how much I love Harry

[@beckystone1637]

Watched this last night and even now I am laughing like mad. It's brilliant. Harry Hill is a class act!

[@TheyMakeYouSmile]

I'm SO proud of her and everyone involved! It's for a fantastic cause and I know she had fun! :)

[@h8GW]

Those must be some bangin' bangers!

[@lbsiuk]

This has got to be one of the most underrated videos ever made. So much effort and only 570 thousand views.

[@JacquelinePetingi]

A-ha foreverrr!!! To be honest, I love A-ha too much to laugh on a funny video about 'Take On Me', but this one made me laugh very sincerely LoL Congrats to 'Children in Need' and Harry Hill for this laudable project, and please, proceed! :)

[@JohnConway-k2n]

❤ Amazing video definitely love Harry Hill and Warwick Davis ❤❤❤ 100% hairy bikers rip dave myers xxxx

[@djsherz]

"Where have you been?" "I DON'T KNOW"

[@FireFoxOmicron]

I don't really watch Harry Hill but I am a massive fan of a-ha [Seriously, Check out songs like "The Sun Always Shines On Tv" and "Manhattan Skyline"! Absolutely beautiful!] and the fact that this was done for Charity too Is Something a Guy like Me can really appreciate. :)

[@catrionamacgregor7193]

For those of us who loved this the first time around, a fantastic parody!

[@moplet72]

Brilliant! Love the posters in Sinitta's bedroom LOL

[@DJSMEG2314]

And the best entertainment of Children In Need 2013 goes to.......HARRY HILL AND CO!!!! BLOODY BRILLIANT!!!!!!

[@williamg209two]

i love this, the tv burp references, the comedy and warwick davis and that girl of emerdale

I've always enjoyed A-Ha and I enjoyed the spoof on Take on Me, it gave me a good laugh.

[@mrfitty7488]

i remember little 6 yearold me watching this on children in need and i’ve never forgotten it oh my

[@KiyokaMakibi]

What a great spoof! They really paid attention to details :)

this whole day song is stuck in my head

On youtube you can look and listen a-ha last concert 25-06-2022 : rock in rio lisboa

[@Carismystic]

This has to be my favourite video of today and all in aid of a great charity.

[@BigBuedro]

Fantastic video and I love the daft things they've included like the random posters of famous "bald people" incl. The Mitchell Bros, Heston Blumenthal, Jessie J to name but a few. Brilliant vid for a worthy cause.

[@lucyluck8796]

Gosh , I wish I was an eighties kid ! Music was soooooo good then !!

This had me in stitches last night!

National treasure that Harry.

Why am I bawling my eyes out on this. CIN was hard for me in 2014 for personal reasons.

This was just great never get tired of people creating such Awesome works from this Classic and great 80's Hit Thank you really enjoyed this.

[@kirsty001]

Hahaha, so funny! You are the man Harry Hill :)

[@mattroberts6817]

it was nice to see harry back on tv again

[@MaisieSqueak]

I'm so wary of most British comedy these days. This seems generally pretty wholesome. ❤ My favourite band, the song and video... You payed it the greatest respect in references while still managing to be super funny. A rare treat in this time of unpleasantness.... But then I guess this is pretty old.

[@Zanzibar46]

Keyboard player is a legend!

[@gustavo64421]

Excelente vídeo!!! Todo vale con tal de seguir escuchando este temazo de los 80'!!!!!

[@FinnersBinners]

I remember this being on BBC children in need I laughed my head of lol

[@tacosanchez28]

Bruh, Harry Hill stealing a sausage is my life

[@latinohunk1]

Must have been the highlight of Sinitta's career...hahahahaha

[@thehorrorcounselors4747]

Warwick Davis is a natural treasure

[@CeciliaSierraArrieta]

A-ha forever!

[@WinstonDreadmore]

Haha the posters of semi famous bald people at the end made me chuckle.

[@csb7376]

Nick Hewer and Richard Madeley with mullets, sausage reference to Heather in Eastenders, and Warwick Davis actually looks like Pal or Mags (not sure who played keyboards). To think he used to be a doctor in a hospital, quite scary really!

[@munkeypants1]

csb73 Was it Roland Rivron on the "drums"

[@csb7376]

munkeypants1 no, it's Nick Hewer. He used to be Alan Sugar's right hand man on The Apprentice but now presents Countdown.

[@t614]

"In 2025, are there still people watching this? I watch this music video every day after watching A-HA's official music video. This is my taste."

[@SuperDanTheMan222]

i cant stop watching this its so good

[@JesperHellvik]

Aaah I don't know about this. It wasn't really as funny as I had hoped for, except for Warwick Davis on the sausageboard. But nice work, must have taken forever, since there's no other way to rotoscope than doing it frame by frame...just like in the golden days of '85. I wish I could go back and re-experience the thrill and hype over a-ha and Take on Me...and the power of their debut album Hunting High and Low!

[@MaskedMan66]

CGI can be used to create the rotoscoping effect.

[@Maerahn]

Realising that Nick Hewer of Countdown fame is the drummer in this made me far happier than is probably legal!

[@Tunaboy45]

This is just fantastic.

[@Omegajunior2658]

Wow I did not know even know there was a Harry Hill version of the 1985 song Take On Me by a Norwegian synth-pop band A-ha (as we know). It's kinda hilarious. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪

[@BryanMerricks]

First Time I've Seen This Was It A Comic Relief Set~up loads of bbc heads on this Harry "S Doings But Really Funny & Clever Done Even When A~Ha Did It In The 80s. It Was So Good With A Whole New Genre For A Video Only MAZING TO SEE ....WOW 1st time too 😂😂😂

[@owenfautley]

RIP Dave.

[@NewPemmie]

Truly epic.

[@hihowareyou3547]

How have I never seen this?! It's hella good.

[@terratec1001]

Anything regarding thick meaty sausage is good in my eyes ;) An amazing idea for this take on A-Ha's original video.

[@garrynorth6269]

Brilliant Harry, to all the dislikes, try to grow up children.

[@satan4140]

this is better than see people hate each other this is just calm and nice :)

[@satan4140]

-Satan's leaving youtube for some days weeks months years maybe forever "too horrible"

[@crazyskittlefan44]

I do love this country sometimes.

[@sarikaFauzi]

I like to quote word per word by a fellow youtuber steve segal on A-ha's original video. "The lack of respect for animators is just staggering. Michael Patterson & Candace Reckinger did those thousands of drawings by hand. ...."

[@davidwillcocks808]

*Insert disappointed Patrick Stewart here*

[@sandrafaith]

TBH, this just makes me appreciate the 1984 version, done by hand, even more.

[@wispamilkshake666]

that was the best thing i have ever seen, totally made my week, thank you harry!

[@actionman9451]

A pure masterpiece ☺️

[@agssxghbb9460]

I don't usually like Harry Hill but this is really creative!

[@OleeHem]

Warwick Davis you glorious individual!

[@rednovember3639]

Simon King looks truly villainous at 2:48. Genuinely happy that he is about to catch his prey.

[@koppimasho]

So sacrilegious but an awesome "take on" a classic

[@Nettsinthewoods]

Oh that made me laugh! I love Harry Hill❤️

Is it just me or did anyone else spot Tom Ellis in this clip wearing a red and black flannel shirt too?

[@JBDino8473]

I thought it would be terrible, as Children in Need sketches usually are. But no, Nick Hewer in a mullet and more, it made me laugh. Well done.

[@drunkwrestlingf7583]

The sausage just kills me. Love it.

[@davejohnston2936]

Lol i love this i always watch it and its a good old song from the 80s-90s

[@IndieGamerRetro]

I'm just here for Warwick Davis on the sausage keyboard...

[@lisaq8118]

I'll never be able to listen to this song or watch the original video without thinking about Tom Ellis and...sausages.
