This is my 4th one created, hopefully 3rd one on Newgrounds. Hope you enjoy it. I had mixed feelings making it, and I made only 1/2 of it, but my brother used it and reversed it (1/2 the Credit goes to Josue Negron). Not perfect, but enjoyable. Based on that music video "Take on Me", by A-ha. Enjoy, and please don't blam it. Thank you. ^_^

Well i love the old video by ah-ha and i mean it looks like you put some time into this. I like some of the effects you encorporated, and you put your own unique touches to the music and stuff. Really good job, but maybe put a lil more effort in next time? better drawing? Anyways, my 2 cents. Good job

"Not bad but needs some work on graphics and such"

Not bad, I love the song that you chose to do with the video and even though I have to say that it is one of the worst songs ever created, it is also one of the funiest and therefore I like it. So I can't in all good concience blam anyting that has that song in it. But next time maybe there could be some better graphics and more violence. i love violence!!! Good job.

I dunno. Maybe you're not old enough to remember, but the music video to this song was groundbreaking in animation. It defined what a music video could be, and introduced some techniques that were later regurgitated in crap like Waking Life.

My point is that your animation made no sense, and that doesn't bode well when you're trying to improve on history.

Who sings that song? I really need it for my movie. anyway, nice animating, it didn't make much sense at first, and I thought it might be one of those noobs trying a prank again when it said the end. But it was really cool, and yet, strange. You did a great job, and it could have been better with color, butI think the idea was to have it colorless. Oh well, good job.

"t'was ok"

date: May 29, 2006

tho, the animation was far too jerky, i know if the Fps were higher itd be out of sync with the music, but it just got abit annoying with the Low Fps, so in the future try to fix that, other than that, good flash

"Hilarious, but maybe not on purpose."

date: May 29, 2006

I had no idea what was going on, but for that very reason it was funny.

Also, "Take on Me" is an awesome song.

"Fail"

This bears no relation to Take On Me at all. This is a badly-implemented attempt at recreating the rotoscoping technique used in a-ha's original video.

You've desecrated the finest pop record ever released, as well as the most inspirational band of all time.

I hate you.

A real classic when music was new and MTV showed nothing but music videos 24/7. Very decent animation and excellent music track. I'm surprised you had good sound quality with such low file size, all things considered. Overall, a very decent job. Congrts!

Hope to see another work from you in the foreseeable future. Good luck in all your projects and godspeed. Keep 'em coming!!!
