Love how happy and sincere the video seems, really gorgeous and emotional, diverse and fashionable

[@barclaydenholm9399]

Probably the best music video i have ever seen and with your music, just amazing! So glad you did that!

[@venificusmalatia4524]

This song was on my moms playlist when I was a child and always played on road trips to my grandparents. Lots of nostalgia.

[@blackwarb]

Everyone looks so young and happy. Love this!

[@MsBhappy]

I used to listen to this song all the time in high school. So glad I went back into my old 8tracks account :)

[@caseysparks5580]

Represented a current of hope coming out of the great recession that we rode thru the 2010s

[@CrowMium]

This song is so underrated!

[@missingmochigumanofficial]

Ooh, "directed and edited by David Dean Burkhart." THAT guy. Nice.

[@tito619ramirez]

Heard them play this two days ago in Washington DC. It was pretty feeling awesome

[@j.mad414]

[@noblerthanyou]

I think the video is a stroke of genius.

[@zackaryvincent]

i frickin love this video, i wish i could have been in something like this although im sure i dont like i belong in the 70's

[@Jieun23able]

쉰나!

[@otterguyty]

So amazing

[@sophineyazzie7381]

Y’all have no idea how long I’ve been trying to search for this song. I heard back in 2014, I remember watching the music video. But never got a chance to know the song title or artist. I’m so happy, it only took me 10 years 😭

[@diznanl]

hand claps at 1:25 do it for me everytime.

[@dtw1622]

diznanl This comment and the subsequent watching of the guy at 1:25 gets me every time.

[@echild19]

He’s so happy to be there 😂

[@nndo6953]

Same

[@celestielsigh]

He's so cute I love him

[@jerryprince5337]

This video is so rad! ahaha I can almost dance this good

[@kattelyn92]

Beauteous!

[@riva2003]

this song is awesome!

[@Glexs30]

NO WAY THAT THIS WAS SHOT THIS YEAR :O SO AUTHENTIC 80s!

[@pysouza]

Those were the days. Hahah, awesome video.

[@tmroie]

Amazing video 😍

[@katontheloose]

I was expecting more at the vid because of how good the song is.

[@ltgort]

There's no way this was filmed recently. Effects can be applied to make it look like VHS, but the clothing, hairstyles AND dance styles are distinctly 80s. Not faked 80s, or reproduced 80s or movie 80s. The real deal. And the call sign for the radio station in the background: KFRC. It was a radio station in San Francisco from 1924 to 2005. Too late for this video.

[@woah11ify]

So was this archived footage or actually people from now? lol I'm confused what it means by "directed by DDB".

[@xTheArtOfDrew]

This actually looks like a lot of fun... :)

[@maybedog2455]

I 100% agree.

[@ChrisTamayo]

I used to not like this album, but definitely grew on me. Bands progress man, #dealwithit.

[@geniusss4]

Keşfedilmeyi bekleyen sonsuz şarkı var ve kısa bir ömrümüz..

[@JackZullo]

YOU GUYS NEED MORE HITS.

[@Dannysubliminal]

Quality video geeeez

[@lovecat099]

This song is so epic, I thought the video would relate to the song a bit more. This song completely reminds me of Data from Star Trek Next Generation.

[@woah11ify]

Thanks!

[@localroboplaguedoc]

Lyrics! Golden light, turned all white If I run to you, would you stay? I might be a prototype, but we're both real inside Would you take me up this time? Come take me up this time Cause I'm gonna find that place the way that I want I will find my beta love When I find my beta love You will be my beta love My beta love Now we're getting closer In this hole, I believe You can't tell me no, it's no dream In this city of robot hearts, ours were made to be You take me up this time You take me uṗ this time I was made in that place, no way to deny I will find my beta love When I find my beta love You will be my beta love My beta love Now we're getting closer Oh, aye, oh, aye, oh My beta love When I find my beta love You will be my beta move My beta love Now we're getting closer Be my beta love When I find my beta love You will be my beta move My beta love Now we're getting closer Close to you

[@Stelth124]

1:24 You're welcome

[@Mattes50A05]

I literally cannot watch this video without smiling.

[@HanCritchfield]

Agreed

[@serenerhapsody]

Seriously, they were way ahead going into this trend!

[@stevstrums23]

💕🎶

[@Msbba231]

@rarariotchannel - i think y'all should create a multi-gif feature from different sections of the music video. and then just create a website where when you mouse of the image, the gif loops and the section of the song plays.

[@mmsahl]

Filmed in Williamsburg, Brooklyn 2013

[@ShallzProduction]

I AM IN LOVE TOO

[@annv.8460]

Is this footage from the 80’s or 70’s? Can’t find the making of this video.

[@alinerz93]

damn i wanna go to a dance like that

[@GroverJ83]

No that is stock footage from tv show Dance Party which has not been on the air in decades.

[@StopThatSquirrel]

omg how am I just now seeing this. I always picked up on mad michael jackson vibes listening to this song and now it's all confirmed through the video hahah

[@Trasha18]

I think that in this case he's referring to the slang term for beta. Beta means something new or experimental (it typically refers to software stuff that is still under tests). So maybe he is talking about finding a relationship that may work or may not...I don't really know, that's just what I gathered.

[@nigerianskills1919]

They play this at were I work (Aeropostale)

[@Bambulbi]

Guy with shades and dark striped shirt is way too cool to clap to the beat

[@31179si]

Doctors should prescribe this video as a cure for depression 😀

[@krissie2454]

why isn't this song on spotify :-(

[@OlieTalusan]

TV20!

[@bluerabbitvine]

I know what you mean here - not sure why you got so many negative votes. The "beta version" of something is usually the first version made - It's like a "test version" used to find the errors. If you watch Big Bang Theory, Leonard and Penny use the term "beta" in this manner for their relationship, meaning that their relationship is at the test phase where you work out all the "bugs" so to speak. The second version is called the alpha. It comes after the beta, but is first in terms of quality :)

[@ashthemash9]

SOUL TRAIN

[@ILLILLERY]

Taylor Swift I'm happy for you and I'ma let you finish but RA RA RIOT HAD ONE OF THE BEST VIDEO'S OF ALL TIME ....... OF ALL TIME !!

[@1lemonberry1]

I was born 30 years too late :(

[@marclarines]

is this an actual footage from the 70's or 80's??? im really curious lol

[@rollypollyjoe]

why did kids get such a thrill at being on tv then? I don't see this so much this day.

[@Alicesqueaks]

1:08 there is a dude in a pink jacket just standing there XD

[@coffe3111]

This music video is the exact opposite of the Soul Train music video for Daft Punk's 'Lose Yourself to Dance'

[@NeonLuiss]

Hey why don't you search up for the word "progress"?

[@aperkins07]

Not a fan of the song, but this video is gold. Especially at 1:25

[@lightsoutisay]

This song, doh.

[@Jatt2613]

Um ... nope. Alpha comes first. It's the Greek alphabet. An alpha program is the first version, the one usually worked on exclusively in-house by the developers. The beta version is still an early, pre-release version, but it's often tested by a wider circle, whether people connected with the company or the public. You have closed betas, in which a limited number of people are invited to test, and open betas, in which anyone can try out the program. The term's used all the time in gaming.

[@kerikino]

would have been better if a performance were included, similar to that weezer happy days video

[@MuttonChopYaz]

Whatever you do, do NOT broaden your horizons.

[@laurentb4835]

is that Ben Stiller at 0:48?

[@ibrews]

So was this from a BETA player, or VHS?

[@epiphonecasino5903]

its just the kofy 80's dance thing

[@calebbraun7238]

Its also a type of fish.

[@lightfictionmgmt]

archived footage edited by DDB

[@QuisnamOfGallifrey]

Alpha is one, Beta is two.

[@ChrisTamayo]

Best part @ 1:24 hehehe

[@_clrknt]

I’m leaving this comment here so that every time someone comments i can listen to this again (2)

[@Guidonator181]

Wait...actually?

[@chazmatazz4728]

Beta usually means first. So your first love.

[@HoreanAir]

no, that's betta

[@quinho12]

rihanna at 1:34

[@henrys3629]

1984?

[@HamIam1278]

1:25 - 1:28

[@2Ursos1]

But "Beta" is the second letter of the greek alphabet, i thought it means "second" =X.

[@CarthagoDelendaGuy]

what about 1:50?
