that ruled seriously.
Oh hell Ya! Where to start with the Rad-ness that is this video. The pink spandex, the mime dancing, the "television is for losers"... loved it. Nice shot up through the drum.
Oh Man!!! :D Authentic '80s right thurrrr. I was waiting for Martha Quinn to pop up at the end! :D
Nice work! :D
you guys rock!!
It was OK I guess, I mean whatevar (trying to be ironic). :D
this fucking rules! brilliant!
Awesome team production! Choreographed very nicely.
Awesome! I love it!
oh, man. first of all, i freaking love theburg.tv. having lived in williamsburg from 98-05, that show will always have a special place in my heart. and now to see all of you do a deathmatch video... well... it makes an old brooklyn boy just too happy. drinks are on me when we finally get a chance to meet.
<3 <3 <3 <3 it!! I feel like crying I'm getting so nostalgic. I miss the 80's -- and Brooklyn. You brought it back home. :)
This is the best video I have ever seen :o
That was so good. You guys really worked hard on this one. I loved it.
That was seriously awesome, gotta love Chris O'Conner in the leotard.
That looked like a fairly serious production, and well done. It was great to watch yours and the original back to back to fully realize the care taken in the shooting/editing. Great song.
The 80's Rule!
man... i wish i had a band... even a fake band to do something like this.... i thought you guys were going to step up with "the humps" video.. .but you guys took it one step further.. one HUGE step further.
and it's an 80's song! my god man.... you took the 80's and made it web 2.0! that's brilliant.
Actually made a statement, albeit a worn one, which is very rare for vloggers I think. Incredible production value, minus aesthetic issues with cinematography and set design. All hail the psychoelectric auteurs.
Finally, a re-make to appreciate.
I watched it, then the original and then watched again. Outstanding work.
its pretty!
wow. i miss mtv.
the first quarter was especially kickass!
This takes me back, way back to that special day when I went to a friend's house to witness the birth of music video because my Mom was too cheap to get cable.
Nice leotard, dude!
You guys have the New Wave 'tude down so well! This is the media I consumed out of College...flash back, back, back, forward....
You guys are UNBELIEVABLE. I watch it over and over and still can't wait to see it again.
Great Work!!!!!!!
I've got a version of RKTRS on vinyl with Bruce Wolley and the Camera Club, one of the original writers. Note to self...hook up turntable.
that was, well, umm, I guess it just was.... nice work
I time warped, back to the future
Go Burg!
