  • omg! so good, I described jumping man into google and finally found this

  • THE WOLF WAS A CRAZY SON OF A BITCH!!!

  • When we first got cable, this was one of the first videos I ever saw!

  • Too much cocaine

  • He had to be in good shape to do this, and have good leg muscles. Jumping like that can make you very sore. It's also the first video I EVER seen of an artist jumping through a video like a rabbit!

  • Well I'll say one thing. He sure has a lot of energy. If I was to try hopping all over town like this, i wouldn't be able to walk for a week!

  • indeed you made my day too. 

  • I get tired just watching him,LOL

  • EXCELLENT  SONG - HORRIBLE VIDEO !!

  • Haha he cheated twice

  • I remember this back in the day when mtv still played music video's,butt some how i thought he was on a pogo stick while shooting this?? To bad he has no best of cd out there not much to choose from anymore outside of j.geils band..

  • Ha, I like it !! Go Peter!!

  • Peter hit #15 in Billboard, 4-25-87. God bless ya, for postin' it . Have a great week!

  • dedicating this to our son's recently suddenly deceased father - he was a bundle of energy at one time.....

  • Great song from the 80s. Somebody needs to get the ants out of Peter's pants though. 

  • well, today I found that Goldfrapp's video from happiness is not so original

  • He must have been exhausted by the time he was done filming that.

  • Amen to liking the upbeat songs! Where are they now???

  • Hahha I felt tired just looking at him jump! XD Great song and beat. I'm a sucker for these upbeat tunes...

  • Who else thought "Highway to Hell" when they heard the riff?

  • I remember seeing this when i was a kid/

  • Some CENTREFOLD chicks would say "what a jerk"

    Other better sexually performing ones would say"what a stud-he cheers me up!"

    75 million depressed americans with the gun in mouth blues would find relief in that guy,

    as for the girls saying what a jerk,I'd say"yeah & what about those slash marks verticle down your arm, just cause you wont let anyone love or respect you???"

  • Can't say the boy isn't energetic!

  • This video was inspired by a number in a MGM musical of the 1950's with actor/singer Bobby Van

  • @Filmwolf1 Take me to Broadway in Small Town Girl. Gotta admit it trounces this energy wise.

  • who thought this was nirvana

  • I remember this song and video when I was in middle school, I have not heard since 1987 thanks for posting LMAO!

  • WTF?

  • This is the lesser known Top 40 hit under the title "Come As You Are" - anyone know who owns the better known of the 2 songs? That distinction belongs to the late Kurt Cobain & Nirvana.

  • funny! I think he must have worked out so hard for this video shooting.

    Peaceful, happy PV. Thanks for posting!

  • @narunoa You realize, don't you, that every time something (or someone) passes between him and the camera, that's a spot where they cut the film? I'm not dissing on the guy, I'm just saying, it's not like he had to jump for 3 solid minutes. Or even 1 solid minute.

  • @spokospokospoko Well the guy was 41 years old at the time and the longest shot was every bit of 40 seconds. The shots are all like that, set up to be 30 to 40 seconds. Then you figure they had to do several takes. I'm impressed.

  • Comment removed

  • @TheZeroturner A feat at any age.

  • love that saxyphone

  • randygaiero I love this guy so much I don't care what he does he does well haven't seen him for a while with this video  thanks

  • I've really been looking for this one. Thanks!

  • I finally,after all these years, found out the title of the movie that this video parodies;Take Me To Broadway

  • This video makes me short of breath... all that jumping. :D

  • This is for the WDHS class of 1990 reunion. Come as you are don't be a fake or anything you normally are not. "COME AS YOU ARE OR DON'T COME AT ALL!"

  • Is this Peter Wolf as in 'Wolfman', Pete Doherty's mate?

  • Start Hopping!

  • This is supose to be a fun song, as well as a fun video. then you have the people on here with no sense of humor at all that are like. "It's a stupid video, or I dought Peter Wolf would be jumping around like that now". These must be real fun people at a party. I dought how ever they ever get invited, LOL.

  • @boggadee07 It's spelt 'doubt'

  • pyon pyon!!

  • This video still puts me in a good mood after all these years! Thanks Peter. Forgot about him until his appearance on Letterman last week.

  • Excuse me, but could I have some Jolt Cola?

  • Reminds me of one of the That's Entertainment films {I think} where there's a man jump-jump-jumping throughout the whole song.

  • Damn... dude got some strong legs... my legs are tired just by looking @ his! lol! Great song btw! I was looking for this! Thanks for the upload!

  • Odd video but the song was great.  I still have the 45 actually.

  • This takes me back!

  • Why would Peter wanna jump around for the whole video? What a mo-ron! Anyway, it hit #15 in Billboard.

  • @DaveWollenberg I agree....I always did like this song,but the video was insanely stupid....if Peter Wolf remade this song I doubt very seriously he could do all that jumping around(what is he now....60 something? lol)

  • @DaveWollenberg

    Peter Wolf is a moron?

    I think you are the MORON!

  • One of the STUPIDEST vids I've ever seen!

    Just jumping everywhere! lol!!

    Love the J Geils Band but Peter's solo stuff and his HORRIBLE dancing on the "Lights Out" video leave much to be desired.

  • @455Transam well it's obvious that the gimmick of the video is to shoot the whole thing ina single shot, the choreography is also an homage to an old Gene Kelly film .

  • @Speegs23 The difference is GENE KELLY could DANCE!! he didn't just jump up and down....please don't compare this to anything the great GENE KELLY did!! LOL!!

  • @455Transam it's a music video, don't take yourself so seriously.

  • @Speegs23 I'm not taking it seriously....don't you know what "LOL" means?? Here it is again...LOL!!

  • One of my favorite videos and songs from the 80's!

  • Incredible to see this again... Just had to have the single/sp-record instantly back then!

  • why?

  • I'm exhausted watching him jump around.

  • loved this song for over 20 yrs when the video first aired i thought it was very original and still do

  • Thank you, thank you too much for getting this full cut back on, at least for now.

  • Check out the original movie clip which this video is based on : Bobby Van - Take me to broadway...

  • This video is so funny because I can picture Peter Wolf doing it in one take. I saw him in concert a few times in the last year and he really does have that much energy.

  • I've been looking for this for 20 years! You made my day!!!

  • Yeah, I'm the same. This has been a 20 year hunt for me too.

  • they dont have this songg on anything!! i couldnt find it on itunes!! thanx for posting thiss though!

  • I've been looking for this song forever! Thank you!

  • A prime example of a video that didn't ruin a good song.

  • Is this Peter Wolf, or Peter Rabbit?

  • Lulz -- now I know why I've never seen this vid.

  • @aarfeld  Peter Cottontail** Lol

  • oh i will...ta love
