I watched many musicians reacting to 70’s - 80’s music and everybody is struggling to digest the videos music or the lyrics. Those years were simply magic 🪄. It wasn’t about complexity on trying to make a song because everyone was on the same state of mind. The creativity, dreams, passion and imagination was in the air. The problem started (late 80’s) when someone decided to put real human problems into the songs (inflation, racism,crime,drugs, politics) You usually used the song as a medicine because of the sounds or images, not the lyrics. You were running behind a dream world and their dreaming girls, like in a fantasy book. The real world always is gonna hit you on your face, wherever you go. This human real world is fading every day and…………dying. “ people without hopes are easy to control “
One of my top 5 80s music videos. The work that went into this is amazing. My daughter was only 3 when this came out, and we didn't watch MTV or VH1 at the time. I found this video about 5 years ago, and showed it to her...she was very impressed. I like to come back to it every few weeks.
To me, the song is about taking risks. Racing motorcycles is a risk. Sticking yourself out there for an opportunity for love.. is a risk. "Take on me" = a challenge.. "Take me on" = an opportunity. Diving into an alternate world of a comic.. is a risk. Opportunities come along, you have to act on them without hesitation or they will pass you by.. "I'll be gone in a day or two" Best line: "Say after me, it's no better to be safe than sorry" Great experiences require stepping out of your safe place. Love this song and this video.
You are 100% correct. The video was made before computers so it had to be drawn by hand and placed over live action footage, frame by frame. (rotoscoping) The story is pretty straight forward with the girl day-dreaming about the cute boy in the motorcycle racing comic who pulls her into his world. When the waitress crumples the comic, it causes the panes/walls to break which allows the mechanics who supported his competitor who lost to see their revenge. Her hero, leads her to safety by tearing a hole back to reality which she crawls through and eventually he follows her to safety. The closing scene (with the hero banging off the walls) was choreographed with a tip of the hat to the movie "Altered States"
As you could see there is a whole documentary about the song and the making of the video. It´s worthy to see it. It was perfect marketing move those times.
My Favorite band for 40+ years- and that's a tough thing since I live in NewEngland (USA)! The emergence of MTV, VH1, and then in 2005- TH-cam- has made their music the "soundtrack of my life". They are all 3 great musicians, family men, no drugs, booze, or scandals- and even over 60- still pleasing to the eye. Morten Harket has the most beautiful voice I've heard in my 66 yrs of listening to music- it actually HEALS me and soothes my soul. They're last album "True North" was released 2 yrs ago and I love every song on the album- especially "I'm in". Long live Aha- and can't wait for another sudio Album!!!
A-HA they are from Norway , they were so popular in the 80’s! Take on me came out in 1985. Morten Harket was very popular with the girls I was the 15 yrs old at the time 😜 and of course his singing is amazing and he can still sing like this his amazing! Excellent reaction Steve
@@setonhillstudios yeah, they were much more than yet another synth pop band. Morten had the voice & looks, and Pål matured into an absolutely brilliant songwriter. I thoroughly recommend a deep-dive into their stuff, they even did the theme tune to a James Bond movie !
Hi, thanks for reacting to take on me by A-HA. I have been an A-HA fan for 40 years now since this song came out in 1985. A-HA hail from Oslo, Norway they have released 11 albums choc full of quality music each one being different to the last. The band have two guinness world records. One was for the longest note held during a live performance for a song called Summer Moved On during their ending on a high note tour in 2010 you should check it out. Watched live it’s amazing seeing Morten hold the note for so long then sing really high the next second. He has the voice of an angel and it can be found on youtube. Summer Moved On, Oslo Spektrum , Ending on a high note 2010 tour. You won’t be disappointed . A-HA have and continue to produce the soundtrack to my life. I had just turned 16 when they appeared in 1985 and i’m 55 now. Never stopped loving A-HA. The video was done by two professional artists who did over 10,000 drawings placed with live action using rotescoping. Most A-HA fans consider take on me to be their weakest song of their back catalogue but that’s the song everyone knows. Take care 😘🏴 ❤️🇳🇴❤️ A-HA FOREVER ❤️🇳🇴❤️
This has been voted the #1 best music video of the 80s by multiple publications and many polls. They created over 3000 animation frames by hand over 16 weeks for this video. Frankly, not very many of us obsessed about what the songs of the time were about. I'm still finding out what some songs from the 70s and 80s were about, let alone what the lyrics were. If the song sounded great and we could at least sing the chorus, that was good enough for most of us. Pre-Internet, if the lyrics weren't on the album sleeve, it just wasn't worth it to try to track them down by going to the library (I don't even know if they could be found there) or buying the sheet music (wherever that was sold). In 2023 Billboard ranked this song at #26 among the best pop songs on the Hot 100 since 1958.
Here in Europe where i grew up as a teen in the '80s,A-ha was in the top 3 '80s bands of mainstream pop music together with Duran Duran that got preceded.Morten Harket is a phenomenal vocalist a very special charismatic frontman and person.
A-ha is a legendary band that has put out 11 studio albums of some of the best music of the last 40 years. At the end of the eighties, and into the ninties and thereafter, the band became more blusey and moody, haunting and spiritual. Vocalist Morten Harket is one of the best rock singers in history, with a five octave range, and guitarist Paul Waaktaar Savoy, and keyboardist Magne Furuholmen are some of the best multi-instrumentalist musicians in the world. Their last album "True North" was released in 2022. Recomendations would be "I've Been Losing You" live (official video) version, "Cold as Stone", and the lush ballad "Lifelines." Thanks for the reaction to this legendary song and video, and all the other reactions you have done.
@@hussamalnawab Definitely one of the more creative videos I have ever seen! Thanks so much and so glad you are digging the content! Have a great one! ❤️
It was released in 1985. My favorite music video ever! MTV played the video in a heavy rotation back in 1985, as also did plenty of music TV shows like "Friday Night Videos". Also, the video has been on plenty of MTV's best videos of all times countdowns during the 80s and the 90s especially.
There is a sequel to this video, The Sun always Shines On TV. Also Hunting High And Low is really good too. This video was on heavy rotation on MTV back in the day, and showed how videos began to progress to an art form.
If I recall it was third time lucky releasing this song as the previous releases went unnoticed. A combination of a slight reworking and this video sent it into orbit. Now you have to watch their video to The Sun Always Shines On TV as it finishes the story in this video.
You need to react to this other A-Ha hits; The Sun Always Shines On TV, Train Of Thought & The Living Daylights (The James Bond Theme Song from the James Bond movie of the same name). A-Ha isn’t a one hit wonder they have been making hits for over 25 years
Dirigido por Steve Barron, el video musical fue creado en 4 meses dada la complejidad del proceso de rotoscopía, una técnica que su animador, Michael Patterson, había usado anteriormente en su cortometraje Commuter
It was less than slightly okay for a 12 year old British boy to acknowledge this as one of their favourite pop songs in 1985, but my brother did buy me the album for my birthday - only for me to find, disappointed but spurred to competition, that Morten Harket could reach notes that I couldn't before full adolescence had ended.
I was 11 when this video dropped and it absolutely blew my little mind. I'd seen other things that combined live-action with animation before (Disney's "The Incredible Mr. Limpet", for example) but this was on a whole other level. Hands down the best music video I'd ever seen, and probably still have to this day.
Now this is one of those songs that was played to death on the radio and on TV. Even to this day I have never quite got over that with this song. It is a song that I automatically hit the “next track” button.
Love this. Big fan of 80s pop 😊 The band were sort of dimissed as a boy band, but it turned out they were and are great. I have also heard it said they were great live. Lifelong heroes in Norway ❤
love A-HA. Morten Harkett has a beautiful voice. ai remember this video coming out on MTV. i was glued to MTV for hours😂i also really like hunting high and low from a-ha. check it out!
When it reached a billion views on you tube, the artist who done the animation redone some of the animation of 3 scenes, and they were released to buy in celebration of the billion views. I managed the get 1 of only a 100 copies that the band members signed. My pride and joy lol
When this video was first released it was also shown in movie theatres before movies started. There was actually a full screen 35mm version of this but I have never seen it on TH-cam. Maybe the film version is lost?
This Norwegian duo took the inspiration from ABBA, in their name. "A-ha" . Because it is included in several ABBA songs, including: "Hole In Your Soul, "Knowing Me, Knowing You", "Angeleyes", "Money, Money, Money", "Voulez-Vous", "The Name Of The Game".............among others.
Oh my gawd I love watching reactions to these 60's 70's 80's ( you get my meaning😊) videos, but wow it makes me feel really old! 😥 I love your reactions though. It made me think of many, many years ago I was very young, (honestly)😉 and my dad was babysitting me and my sister and when I asked where my mum was he casually said she had gone into town to see these music groups. Next morning she said she had been to see The Beatles and Rolling Stones. I apparently just shrugged and asked why she wanted to see some creepy crawlies under some rocks. A few years later I completely got it. But as mentioned I feel so old.✌ New sub👍
So glad you are enjoying the channel and I agree with not appreciating some tunes as much as I should have! Loved this one and the video is just awesome! Have a great one!
Actually the video´s story is open ended and the very end of the video´s story then happens in the video of the following song titeled "The sun always shines on TV" during the intro of that song..so those 2 videos "Take on me" + "The sun always shines on TV" are connected and should be viewed together in order to see the whole story from start till very end.
A-ha from Norway.morton harkett,pal and mags. Please do the sun always shines on tv next.it's kind of a sequel.also hunting high and low offical video uses more special effects.
I don’t know about the tech, but what it looks like is each still frame had tracing paper or the such placed over it and the still was then traced then ran in order as a cartoon like Disney did except Disney would not have had a still or like photo which these traced stills look like. Maybe someone here has already mentioned the tech, but filmed stuff stopped at a frame…that frame could have been traced or photographed in some way. Thanx for reacting, it never gets old.
Pretty impressive work, considering that it was in the mid-1980's. I remember watching it on MTV when it came out. Hand drawn, so it was well done for the time. video was made by Steve Barron, but not sure if he was a producer or the actual artist--someone else will surely chime in with more details. The band was from Norway--unusual at the time, we didn't know any band from there. About you-tube blocking videos, I recall that it was the original creator decision (Y-Tube only enforce it), some bands are more open than others, so it's trial and error for you. Watch the Dire Straits Money for nothing for another example of this art form (looks like early video games with big pixels)--funny for the nostalgia of my teen years. Have a nice day.
If you think that was a great combination of live action and hand animation, you definitely need to watch the movie WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT. Fantastic!
why dont you do 2 in 1 reactions. see a live performance from when the song came out and then do one from recent years. you can find some artists still at top of game decades later. example simply red, holding back the years as song he wrote when he was 17(Mick Hucknall still sounds like on the album recordings!) or Procul Harum(whiter shade of pale)

The message is probably like: Go with the flow and let yourself be 100% you no matter what. It doesn't pay always but at least you know you tried.
One of my top 5 80s music videos. The work that went into this is amazing. My daughter was only 3 when this came out, and we didn't watch MTV or VH1 at the time. I found this video about 5 years ago, and showed it to her...she was very impressed. I like to come back to it every few weeks.

To me, the song is about taking risks. Racing motorcycles is a risk. Sticking yourself out there for an opportunity for love.. is a risk. "Take on me" = a challenge.. "Take me on" = an opportunity. Diving into an alternate world of a comic.. is a risk. Opportunities come along, you have to act on them without hesitation or they will pass you by.. "I'll be gone in a day or two" Best line: "Say after me, it's no better to be safe than sorry" Great experiences require stepping out of your safe place. Love this song and this video.
Great insight! I think you hit the nail on the head and thanks for swinging by! 😁
I can't even begin to express how much I miss the 80's.

And the bad guy is played by Philip Jackson, who many people know as Inspector Japp in the series "Poirot"

Had a huge crush on him too 😅
They evolved over the years and became a VERY successful rock band. They're still going strong, and released a great album a couple of years ago.
Oh cool! Glad to see that they are still doing it after all these years!

Superb, attentive reaction. It took 2 Artists 5 months to DRAW 3,000 images.
OVER ONE BILLION Views!!!
Thanks so much and glad you enjoyed it! That’s is wild but it is definitely an amazing piece of art!
Now go watch their recent unplugged version of this song. You will crap your pants!

Every Artist was tripping over each other to get out the next great video. Lot of experimenting!
Definitely top 5 music videos of all time. Part of the golden age of Mtv.
Take on me means in britush English
'I'm here; I'm ready; take me as I am

Check out Summer Moved On, Forever Not Yours, Stay on These Roads, The Sun Always Shines on Tv, Cry Wolf, Analogue, Crying in the Rain. All from A-HA
This is my FAVORITE 80's song & video!!!
great band, their songs will be listened to for a long time. as for the music video, today it can be easy to make one, but you still need talent. 😊
Great tune in the day, still a great tune today!
I keep the 45 in my Jukebox
Brings me back to junior high.

You’ll have to look at The Sun Always Shines on TV
The animation was roto-scope. It took 3,000 drawings, and two artists several months to do.
What?! That’s wild and so cool! 😳
When it reached a billion views on you tube, the artist who done the animation redone some of the animation of 3 scenes, and they were released to buy in celebration of the billion views. I managed the get 1 of only a 100 copies that the band members signed. My pride and joy lol

If you are a Star Wars fan , the actor who plays the alien who threatens Luke sky Walker in the canteen is one of the bad guys in the take on me video
Rotoscoping is an art all its own.

This Norwegian duo took the inspiration from ABBA, in their name. "A-ha" . Because it is included in several ABBA songs, including: "Hole In Your Soul, "Knowing Me, Knowing You", "Angeleyes", "Money, Money, Money", "Voulez-Vous", "The Name Of The Game".............among others.

There is a 4 video official series here on You Tube on the making of this video.
A-ha from Norway.morton harkett,pal and mags.
Please do the sun always shines on tv next.it's kind of a sequel.also hunting high and low offical video uses more special effects.
I dont like the way they have it end..
The greatest rock video of all time. Drop the mic.
Crazy cool! 🔥
Morten did a version of this on the Masked Singer
I recognised his voice immediately (I was very pleased with myself as I usually don't have a clue)
The girl reading the comic in this video was actually the singer, Morten Harket's real life girlfriend at that time.
They met at the set and kept holding hands when the camera turned off.
I don’t know about the tech, but what it looks like is each still frame had tracing paper or the such placed over it and the still was then traced then ran in order as a cartoon like Disney did except Disney would not have had a still or like photo which these traced stills look like. Maybe someone here has already mentioned the tech, but filmed stuff stopped at a frame…that frame could have been traced or photographed in some way. Thanx for reacting, it never gets old.

this is how cartoons were made in 1930s -70s..

If you think that was a great combination of live action and hand animation, you definitely need to watch the movie WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT. Fantastic!

She's getting some comic man tonight!

Cool! You should react to Lick it Up by Kiss from the Animalize concert.
Please reaction Queen - Liar Live at the rainbow 🥺🥺😅🥰🙏
By what I am hearing. It seems the lady is having a tough time finding her soulmate.
why dont you do 2 in 1 reactions. see a live performance from when the song came out and then do one from recent years. you can find some artists still at top of game decades later. example simply red, holding back the years as song he wrote when he was 17(Mick Hucknall still sounds like on the album recordings!) or Procul Harum(whiter shade of pale)
uh … and Led Zeppelin , Pink Floyd… list goes on. but dont forget who started it all The King Elvis Presley😂
Please react to the german marching band Meute
She never paid her bill.
🤣😂 So true! And just because she got sucked into a comic book that’s no excuse!
Too bad this was their only hit that was mostly played on the radio.
..... in the US.
Not in Europe though. Many hits in The UK.
Bro sais billion wrong
@@ruca_MZ 😂🤣
Listen to the whole song & then react. So distracting & off putting stopping it so many times.
Plenty of people do that but that will never be this channel. It ain’t for everyone and I’m 💯 fine with that. Have a great one! ✌🏻
Again EUROPEAN 🇪🇺,,,,,, IN FACT NORWEGIAN 🇳🇴,
you mean over a billion
I remember this on MTV at a babysitter's house when I was in elementary school. It has always been one of my favorite songs and videos.
