    We’ve reached the end of a very fun week. Walking down memory lane with you has been a blast!

    For this final One Hit Wonder song, I would have to agree with VH-1 when they named it the best One Hit Wonder…..

    What was up with the overalls, no shirts beneath? Must have been a fad back then in the UK?

    Any idea what the words are? I can’t make out many at all? **LOL**

    Happy Friday, everyone!!

    Catchy music, but what a weird video. Sitting on a couch, singing. Oh, and then the water floor. That was cool…

    Gotta love the 80s, right? **smile**

    Welcome to Day One of One Hit Wonder Week!

    Today’s video is Take On Me by Aha.

    Back in the 80s, this was considered pretty innovative for a music video.

    I used to do a bit of drawing when I was in high school, so I was always intrigued with this video because of the drawing aspect. Oh, yeah, the song was good, too . . . **smile**
