this is an old one....forgot about this song.

[MrAbbott66]

I loved this video and song back in the early 80's. Probably one of the definitve MTV videos for me much like Talking Heads "Once in a Lifetime" and Buggles "Vidoe Killed the Radio Star".

[galaxybeing101]

almost all of my friends hated this song, I think it,s a hell of a jam. back in the old days with the fuzzy tv screens I thought the girl looked like she might have been Stella Stevens after her acting career had slowed down. hot girl in any case and a great song.

[steveissosteve]

Awesome song! The video is a little corny but what video isn't. The blode is pretty cute!

[rockerrod100]

oh man the real MTV days...before the went and got all nigga....rock still rules...

[metalman111]

I used to pull off to the blonde all the time, waiting in front of tv for the video to come on.

[tagjohnson]

Who is the blonde?

[MrsLilySnape41]

This song (video. I used to live for going to my aunt's house, where she had CABLE (we didn't), and she'd let me watch MTV in her bedroom the entire visit, much to my parents' distress!) totally fronts my 80s soundtrack. The video, like most early 80s vids, wrapped an entire thrilling movie in a neat three minute package. What a great medium MTV used to be :{

BTW, I always thought the blond looked like Terry Nunn of Berlin

[timepoet77]

Wow! I remember this from 1983. Great song, and it really fueled my love of science fiction. Oh, and this was a scary video in my opinion.

[DazzaZulu]

This is one of the hottest blondes from the 80's...........not referring to Tony Carey

[wilsonclan]

So did that other astronaut come back around in 2010 (like the song says)?

[Elconquistador69too]

@wilsonclan ... That's a damn good question!

[deewkay1]

@Elconquistador69too he came back in a flash of light and burned out somewhere in the Gobi Desert..

[JasonScottOwens]

@wilsonclan

I believe he is referring to Dave Bowman from 2001: A Space Odyssey, the only crewmember of the ill-fated Discovery mission to Jupiter. He returned in 2010: Odyssey II.

her nips defy gravity too !!!!

[425363129]

ANYONE know who the BLONDE IS????? STUNNING Great NIPS

[no1elofaniknow]

Excellent song, excellent album, however depressing. But it's my second-favorite concept album behind ELO's "TIME" from 1981.

[BeachBumRAP]

Nice pokies. She reminds me of actress Stella Stevens in her younger days.

[hyrdrogenalpha]

I like her headlights!

[PlaceSoFarAway]

What's funny is - this video was probably made on a budget of like 10 cents, but the minimalism of it only increases the overall creepiness factor. Kinda like what happend with Star Trek's "Spectre of the Gun" episode (the one at the OK Corral). They couldn't afford real sets, so they used skeletal frames of sets, which only added to the "nightmarish" aspect of the episode.

In short - cool song, cool video.

[timepoet77]

@PlaceSoFarAway I couldn't agree more. This scared the daylights out of me as a kid...and maybe still does today. The SFX, by the by, were and are really good.

[siobhansdaughter]
