"What are they doing with my magic frame?"

Posted Thu 9 Oct 2008 3:52PM BST by Mitch Carter in The Guestlist
We've almost been left speechless by Dustin McLean's literal take on A-ha's seminal music video ‘Take On Me'.

Dispensing with the song's original lyrics but keeping the original melody, Dustin proceeds to describe the video in minute detail.

It makes for astounding viewing. Don't miss the chase scene about 2 minutes in - "What are they doing with my magic frame?". Brilliant!

A very small idea stretched way beyond any interest by somebody with too much time on their hands. One can only envy those who are so easily amused. "Genius"? "Hilarious"? Hardly. Well ok in comparison to cutting grass with a pair of blunt scissors I guess its fun.

Greatest video ever - I don't think so.

Someone clearly has far too much time on their hands.

Rubbish! A-ha are the original and the best.
If you like the original Take On Me video, you can see an art installation based on the comic book imagery here: http://www.helendblackbird.co.uk/Exhibitions.html

A-ha rock ;-)
