I love the rotoscoping technique used in the video so much, and yes; this song is fantastic. One of my favorites.

[Twisted Cyclone 🚓 6,221]

I love the song too. Ohhh the memories of spending hours playing Saints Row 2.

[Mesme Rize 15,681]

Wonderful song and truly one of those pop songs, i connect with the 80s.

 

It was actually the most expensive music video at the time, before Michael Jackson came with Black or White in 1993.

 

I actually saw a MLP version of it, back in 2012.

 

 

If you love RainbowxTwilight, you love this vid.

Great song , I discovered it thanks to South Park...

[Deae Rising Shine~ 52,422]

I'm usually one of those music guys, who listens to music but don't care about likes or dislikes, but this song is definitly more in the very likes song. I remember watching with my family TV in music channels when it came, or when I hear i in radio(Funny fact, this song just came today in radio XD). I also saw  the version already, posted here^^

[CC_Maud_Pie 6,431]

Yes!! I like this song! However, I like "The Sun Always Shines On TV" by the same band better.

I remember I was watching family guy and they played part of the song in a bit, and I was like I must listen to this song.

I REMEMBER THIS!!! It was one of my favorite pony vids back in the day!!!

[Dewdlz 938]

I remember watching a parody on Family Guy about that particular music video.

[Gernia 690]

I really enjoy the song and the video, too. I like the part where his hand starts coming out of the book and gestures for her to come along.

[Wingnut 6,731]

Great song with a lot of great memories!    The female in the video has a passing resemblance to a girl I liked in school at the time it came out so it really stuck with me.  To paraphrase Cheerilee, they really did wear their hair like that then.  xD 

 

I'm glad that Hypnosparkle posted the TwiDash PMV.  No discussion of Take On Me would be complete without it.  I also got to thinking about another popular reference to this hit on TV in recent years. 

 

I remember watching a parody on Family Guy about that particular music video.

 

I was thinking of that as well.  Fox does a thorough job of keeping that segment off of Youtube so this blurry camera shot of it is the only thing available.  Still a good reference though. 

 

 

Finally, there is one more Take On Me item worth posting here.  Hit it Mr. Butters!

I was going to post that one too, but you were quicker ;-J

Yeah, it is really well-made, the animations and references.

The original was also great, I like this song too.

 

Ahh, those '80s... How much I miss them...

 

Here is one more song from these times I loved and still love:

 

(Madonna - "Dear Jessie")

Also great music and animation.

 

OK, it's time for me to close my eyes and see the world where the colorful ponies sing (that is, go to sleep). See ya...

So are we going to create topics discussing our favorite songs now?

[whitetiger187 197]

The one with the Geico commercial always killed me XD

[Scrubbed user 3,415]

 

The airhorn version is funnier.

[Phill 1,285]

a-ha is my favourite band of all time. They're really underrated 

[TheFunk 2,172]

I consider this song to be the national anthem for the 80s

 

 

and like most 80s hits, I love it

[Lisa 5,552]

I like it to, in fact, I can play it on the piano.

[LordSwinton 759]

Ah that old video, haven't seen it in years!

[Envy 5,999]

It's one of those songs that sounds really cool the first few times you hear it, and then after that the appeal is, for the most part, lost.

[ReverseFaller 2,483]

It's a decent song. One of my favorite youtubers did a cover of it. 

 

[BrilliantVenture 334]

ah, easily one of my favourite ol' songs!

So recognizable, so much fun to listen to...

 

 

HOWEVER...whenever I hear it, I end up cracking up due to this particular version going through my head.

 

[~Chaos~ 3,966]

Definitely a classic, catchy tune as well.

 

I enjoy it.
