[Mizzarrk]

Ey take that shit to the next level holmes

[misterrailroadman]

I like this song. I like the motorcycles. It's neat how they located the throttle at the handle bars.

[MrMecabih]

[rgamerican]

[glamlove35]

[azshaw123]

[thatzombieplace]

thumbs up if you're listening to this in 1965

[autobowl]

Thumbs down if your a cat

[OldSchoolRadioHour]

225 people went down the wrong avenue.

[kcrofoo]

@OldSchoolRadioHour Thats because they didn't go down the Electric Avenue!!!

[IREEMEDRI]

@OldSchoolRadioHour : Word up OldSchool. The WRONG avenue. Love the brother Eddy - we are forever grateful for your tuned vibes and that you shared.

[OldSchoolRadioHour]

I remember years back when this song was hitting,I always thought of CHiPs when I heard it.

[JustCallMeAndreW]

Thumbs up if you're listening to this in 1885 because the train couldn't push the DeLorean to 88 miles per hour.

[thethewestexit]

That polo he's wearing is pretty sweet... considering this is a music video from 1982, that's really saying something.

[jsmrite24]

Wow, @KillCapjohns I could not disagree more. Pop radio is disgusting and has been for over two decades. Eddie Grant defined sound with this bomb ass hit. There hasn't been an artist make a timeless hit in ages. Fuck worrying about getting old, just play good music forever. Very little of my playlist will include garbage from this decade.

[PhoenixBrothersLLC]

I still got the vinyl lol....yep and im only 31...

[PrinceOfCicero]

You can't fuck with Eddy Grant.

[chalisea]

This is one of the best songs ever!! It was in my most favorite teen movie "Valley Girl" with Nicolas Cage. That is the best sound track if anyone likes music from that era....There is actually like 2 or 3 CD"s from that movie...It's one of my Fav's

[Jmontaquiza]

great song...spent 5 weeks at #2 on the Billboard charts back in 1983. Eddy Grant's biggest single here in the US.

[SuperMonsterdodge]

one of my favorites of 80,s

[PV1230]

loved this song years ago. still great now.

[ironmancwb]

One of the first videos I saw on Mtv , early 80s , you know back when it was cool .

[salt450555]

Thumbs up if you like this song when stoned :D

[MrVeljkosrb]

PARTIZAN SERBIA!

[KillCapjohns]

man Im 12 and I wish so badly i was born in the 80s Ive heard such great stories of back then shit

[hammr25]

@KillCapjohns The 80s weren't any better than now. When you get old like those of us who lived through the 80s you'll have the same nostalgia for your childhood.

[KillCapjohns]

@hammr25 No it was much different electronis wasnt the big thing back then, they had great music, lots of fun, laws werent as bad, You could get away with stuff just grreat years

[animeloverjunostar]

wait did Daft Punk just come out behind the counter?

[3LTNT]

Thumbs up if Let Me In brought you to Greg Kihn's breakup song in turn bringing you here!!! Is that too much?

[Blizzardo1]

[MattPhelps29]

@IronXXXMaiden1 lol they tried their best but they just didn't have the technology

[jrod8496]

Pineapple Express!

[Thedjemyzz]

Why the hell does youtube think that anyone cool enough to watch this video wants to play world of faggotcraft?

[thyjesse]

@Thedjemyzz Because you've previously watched WoW videos. FYI playing a certain game doesn't make you a homosexual.

this here is what you call music. not some crappy junk you hear on the radio today. I'm 22 from the philippines. i only listen on the radio every sundays coz it's old school sundays, best day of the week.

[Midnightryder7]

I was 18 when this came out..use to blast this through my car speakers when it came on the radio..I had a 68 impala.(Yellow) called her Betsy..These were the days if u hit a deer it would kill it..not your car

[101ByDesign]

Me:We gonna rock down to electric avenue...

Mom:STFU

[kuhlbrez25]

YOU BEEN SERVED!!!

[karal222]

80s foreverrrrr



[Eljanny]

Pineapple express and The Cleveland Show!! :D

[blackmayonnaise888]

This has got to be in my top 5 all time favorite 80's songs. It's really helping me calm down after this drunk son of a bitch took a leak on my living room floor after we let him crash here so he didn't have to drive drunk. I'm both proud of myself and maybe also a little ashamed that I did not kick the ever living tar out of his disrespectful drunken ass.

[superugly75]

Long live the 80's........the last real decade.

[dadof566]

@superugly75 AMEN

[oogle78]

@superugly75 late 60's-70's-80's-90's. those 4 were real good decades.

[MrMopar4ever]

@oogle78 not even close , 80s the best

[oogle78]

@MrMopar4ever yeah that was the best decade outta the 4, but those decades were also good.

[Darkblossomxx]

@MrMopar4ever i think 70s and 90s were the best decades.

[TurboFuss1]

@oogle78 I deff agree. especially 1980's and 1990's. The 2000's sucked in every aspect of society.

[clashrogers]

@TurboFuss1 I'm sure that this playlist might prove you wrong

playlist?list=PL33C123F241B357­AE&feature=mh_lolz

[max200]

@oogle78 For music anyways, can't really say about anything else that was going on around those times.

[TTGRyan65781]

@oogle78 not for black people you ignorant bastard

[OldSchool710]

@superugly75 AMEN!

[ThatDinosaurMan]

ATTENTION EVERYONE: this imbred retard dumb fuck(ThatDinosaurMan) doesn't get enough attention in real life,so please thumbs up his comments so he'll feel some source of satisfaction before he kills himself....... and watch this dumb ass reply bac.........

[ThatDinosaurMan]
