We all heart the eighties so let’s start off the week with one of the MTV era’s best music videos. Not only the winner of 6 MTV Music Video awards – including Best Concept Video and Viewer’s Choice – the Norwegian band Aha’s 1986 video for Take Me On also showed just how dastardly sidecar racers can be. This video was helmed by noted Irish director Steve Barron who is also known for Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean video, and the Coneheads movie!
Perhaps having a director well versed in film is the reason Take Me On has an actual story line, however fantastical and inscrutable it may be. It also has a cute girl and lots of big ’80s hair, and you can check it out all over again right after the jump.
