“Take On Me” by Norwegian popstars a-ha may just be the most perfect thing to come out of the 1980s. That impossibly catchy melody, the chorus that’s far too high for mere mortals to sing along to, the first use of rotoscoping in a music video: what’s not to love?

Changing the lyrics of a song to describe what happens in the film clip is such a simple concept. I never imagined the result could be so hilarious.
Things on the internet are often described as “laugh out loud” funny when they’re just mildly amusing. But this is one of those rare gems that made me actually laugh out loud!
