A-Ha - Take On Me literal song remake video

Somebody forwarded me on this YouTube video last week [update: video now removed from YouTube but available on funnyordie, embedded at end of post]. YouTuber DustoMcNeato has taken the original A-Ha video, changed all the lyrics to reflect what's happening in the song and resung it. Similar idea to the whole Sweding thing in Be Kind Rewind but with 80s cheese. Genius!

Here's the first couple of verses below, unfortunately they don't use the rhyming line 'Take On Me, Literally' that i've just made up, they've missed a trick there, so i'll use it myself. ;)

Take On Me, Literally

Reading a book
Lady brings a new cup of coffee
Peek in the window
She would rather keep on reading
Look at the frame
There's a handsome guy inside this comic

Close up eyes
Hand comes out
Sketchy arm
Grab the hand

So now your inside
Everything's drawn and super 80s
Lots of squiggly lines
When i stand her it makes me human
I'm handsome either way
You you like it that i'm flirting with you

Come to me
Magic frame
Sing to you
Band montage!
Take On Me, Original

We're talking away
I don't know what, I'm to say
I'll say it anyway
Today's another day to find you
Shying away
I'll be coming for your love, OK?

Take on me
Take me on
I'll be gone
In a day or two

So needless to say
I'm odds and ends, but that's me
Stumbling away
Slowly learning that life is OK
Say after me
It's no better to be safe than sorry

Take on me
Take me on
I'll be gone
In a day or two

Anyway enough of this, watch the video if you haven't already.
