Enjoy, Literalist "Take On Me."


Listen for my favorite lines,
"What the Hell kind of hallway is this?  Is this your house? Why is there a dead end? This guy is about to get an ass full of pipe wrench."

Someone else linked to this video earlier without any explanation, and I started the video without realizing there was any difference between this one and the original. I was like "Fuck this. I already know this video."

Now that I've watched it. It's genius.

Very cute. I wonder how many other '80s songs would benefit from lyrics that simply narrate the silly events taking place in their videos. Bonnie Tyler's ridiculous "Total Eclipse of the Heart" video springs to mind.

i watched this with Samara the other day! I had the same reaction as Trick, but Samara just said, "Wait for it...". Since then, i can't stop saying the phrase 'ass full of pipe wrench'.

Total Eclipse would be a good one, but i think i'd like to toss in a vote for 'Love is a Battlefield'. Marvelous narrative there... and if they don't do it, i'm gonna give 'em an ass full of pipe wrench!

Serendipitous!

I'm not sure how I missed this when you posted it, but I'm just now reading it, 35 seconds after watching the Literalist Head over heals.
