1985 Perfect song and video. Eye Candy.

[@BrianSFischer]

Fun bit of trivia, the two dated for years after the video and are still close friends to this day.

[@swmace1]

"Oh, damn, it's a real guy" Best thing ever

[@kentjensen4504]

Those are three guys on the magazine cove.No, she was not in the band.

[@DP-hy4vh]

Imagine how people reacted to this video in 1985. People's jaws were on the floor.

[@theresanault4755]

What an artistic music video!! I love this video!!!!

[@psilvers100]

This is truly classic. The video was a breakthrough. I love your accent, by the way.

[@sportslife5129]

The girl is actually a model (Bunty Bailey) who actually met the lead singer on the set of this music video. They ended up dating for a few years afterward.

[@Jontor11]

This is the best music video ever made imo.

[@drigerdranzer7514]

It's not from a movie. The technique is called Rotoscoping, that you draw/trace by hand frame by frame over the filmed material. It took months just to draw the parts from inside the comic.

[@bensweiss]

The original is on Warner I believe. It's a smidge different. When I saw the motorcycle scene it reminded me of the 1930's and 40's so there was a nostalgic element for me back in 1985.

[@annrabie7988]

I loved your reaction to this song. This was always my favourite A-Ha song. Ignore the haters out there. Love your reactions. Was great seeing your full reaction, but you must post what you feel comfortable with. It's your channel after all. The band is Norwegian and the members are Morten Harket on vocals, Paul Waaktaar-Savoy on guitars, and Magne Furuholmen on keyboards, guitars and vocals.

[@TytheSynthesyst]

Thanks Ann 😁

[@markwebster7435]

I’ve been an a-ha fan since I was 12 I’m nearly 50 now. They have a new single out at the moment, following soon by their 11th studio album.

[@markwebster7435]

Fun fact. The keyboard player magne , wrote the famous synth rift when he was only 14

[@TytheSynthesyst]

That's dope

[@80ssynthfan48]

So that riff is even older than Miss Eerie/The Juicy Fruit Song? Wow.

[@marcossteyer7985]

I just saw them live in Curitiba, Brazil, exactly one week ago!! It was awesome!! Cheers!!

[@leslapins7617]

Yes, this video is one of the best ever… the cartoons were it handmade 🥰. There’s a short documentary with the behind scenes that was released when the original video reached 1 billion views on youtbe, it worths watching . In addition, don’t let this popular song maje you think that A-ha is one song or one style band. They have lots of great and unique songs, 8n addition, Morten Harket, the vocalist, h9ld a guiness record for holding the longest high note in a song, this boy can sing!

[@davidcwitkin6729]

It was a good idea to go with very few cuts

[@jacksaintjack2844]

1 billion views and counting.....................

[@ShinyElfriend]

As an artist whose formative years were the 80's this is one of my favorite songs and my number one favorite music video of all time. Pentatonix covered it amazingly well, but, probably wisely, didn't do a video for it. The arrangement kicks ass, though.

[@michaeltipton5500]

She's getting some Comic Man tonight.

[@TytheSynthesyst]

😂

[@nancymowat5821]

a-ha is a Norwegian band and they're still together. In fact, they're latest cd, True North, just dropped last month. However, they do NOT get along with each other but keep coming back and releasing new material. Little known fact. The lead singer, Morten Harket, holds the world record for longest single note held during a live performance, Summer Moved On. a-ha is known for their artistic videos. I recommend watching Hunting High and Low, Celice, Manhattan Skyline, and the Sun Always Shines on TV, which briefly continues the Take On Me video storyline. Not only are the videos enjoyable but the music is awesome.

[@alisonscott1469]

thank you for reacting to aha and take on me. the video was out in 1985 and still looks good. aha are from norway and are hugely underrated with a massive back catalogue. each song is different you should check out more aha. ive been an aha fan since i was 16 years old i’m 53 now. love them❤❤❤❤ take care😘🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@markwebster7435]

Checkout the follow up single to this, the sun always shines on tv. Much rockier song.

[@deebuku]

Another banger! this has been covered so many times by others

[@TytheSynthesyst]

My guy 🔥

[@markwebster7435]

Take on me has featured in so many movies, recently in deadpool 2 when they used their mtv unplugged version

[@razrhiannaspiers8506]

If you wish to react to something you might not have heard of, I would say the artist Aesthetic Perfection with the song Bark at the Moon

[@drigerdranzer7514]

That's the rivals that lost the race in the beginning that want to "settle the score". Bad losers.

[@thomask6681]

Ty the 80's were so much fun it was about music being enjoyable and great to dance to, it was a happy time , Can you check out one of my favourite 80's dance tracks based on Madonna's Holiday music, it's called Holiday Rap by Miker G and Mc Sven it was huge on the dancefloors in Australia in the mid 80's and you probably haven't heard this one.

[@ScottPothan]

This is authentic you and: no you don’t overly “um & ahh” at all. Leave it raw. It sets you apart because you’re engagingly articulate anyway. What you DO need to edit is your visuals ! Aesthetics rule over edits! We don’t need to see your microwave-we all have one ! Go to Habitat or somewhere get a cool screen to put up or just tight crop. You’re great bud.

[@TytheSynthesyst]

😂 What do you mean... Remove my iconic microwave 😭 But thanks man. I'm glad you enjoyed the unedited version. I think I like the edited though, it's more work but feels more exciting for me lol

[@ScottPothan]

@@TytheSynthesyst haha I know the V&A has one identical (in the staff canteen probably) but there’s no need to boast!

[@richardhojczyk2296]

All your content is good content. Edit or dont, its your channel...what works for you should work for your viewers. Thanks for all you do!!!

[@TytheSynthesyst]

Thank you bro. Yeah you're definitely right

[@unkeymoo]

What the hell does the hater want? A 20 minute video for a 3 minute song? LMAO

[@TytheSynthesyst]

😂 I shouldn't have said hater. I think just someone that saw the vid and gave some criticism lol

[@markwebster7435]

@@TytheSynthesyst just tell them to jog on and blog the dope.
