Couldn’t see difference between 4k and HD.

I think the animation was clearer, but that would be about it.
I can hit those high notes.

Just heard this one at the grocery store today. And now I check in here, and it’s at the top of FR. I miss the 80’s.

This is our song at Nats Park at the seventh inning stretch (after Take Me Out to the Ball Game, of course!). Love when we sing to it and they cut the audio at the last high note and all you hear is the fans singing!

All I can see after reading this title is Curly impersonating a sultan and the, “AHA” routine.

I saw them live on YouTube not too long ago. They’re in their 60s, still gigging, and Morten can still hit that note.

After the video played there was a follow on, three part film on, “The making of Take On Me” (which has now made me late for work).
Fun to watch. Part one is here,

This “literal version” of the song is very well done:

MTV unplugged version is by far the best...

This is my wife’s all-time favorite ‘80s song. The video is pretty cool. We watched it on MTV when they used to play music…
