  • Holy shit. I used to watch this sooo many times as a kid. My Grandma still has the VHS tape at her house I think. Thanks for sharing. So much nostalgia!

  • I used to have this on VHS!!! Thanks for bringing it back!!!

  • There are few things in my earlier childhood (I'd say 10 and younger) that will always stand out in my memory: My baby sister saying that a joker's card depicting a dancing medieval era court jester was,"...acting like his mommy!";getting a NES for Christmas '92 (Yup! In retrospect, I was way behind the curve on that one!);and this video I only saw once in second grade and once more about five years later. Over 20 yrs later I still remember every bit of the hook. Daily nostalgia quota: Fulfilled

  • Holy fucking shit.

    I found you.

    Year = Made.

  • hahaha wooooow totally forgot about this

  • this song raises my spirits more than most other songs made in the last 20 years. It may be because I watched it a thousand times when I was young, but it also may be because this song is frickin awesome.

  • @KWAKrocks I haven't seen this video in almost 20 years myself, and I'm only 24, lol. I thought it would be one of those memories forever trapped in my head. I'm glad to find it again.

  • You are my hero! my older brothers and I used to watch this all the time and we just recently remembered it. It brings back good memories. Thanks for posting it.

  • I wonder if this band ever made it big, must've been difficult considering they were dinosaurs. I mean, they might've went extinct while they were just blowing up, but who knows, these rock bands man, they're unpredictable.

  • I had this tape, I miss it so.

  • I watched this video three times a day, every day, for about 5 years. I wore the video tape completely out.

  • best song ever written!!!! i had this vhs growing up and i found the mp3 i listen to it all the time in geology class when i do labs lol hell yeah internet

  • where can I get the mp3?!

    can you send me it?

  • Click the link in the description for this video.. you can find the mp3 like on that site somewhere.

  • Maybe Charmer went back in time to Mesozoic Times, which is why no one can find them.

  • CENAZZZZOIIIIC :X:X:

  • I searched HeavyHarmonies for info on the band Charmer and couldn't find it in the database.

  • A Florida-based band called Charmer existed around 1976-78. I'm not sure if it's the same group that did this song.

  • wow, i can't believe i found this!

    all i remembered was "you can keep your cenezoic, but i'll take that mezesoic!"

    god i LOVE the internet, lol

  • That was the only part I rememberd too lol.

  • (1:23) Ha-ha, little Flintstones reference.

  • you can keep your cenazoic, give me a mesozoic, miiiind :D

  • This brings back so many memories. I even brought this tape in to school for the whole class to watch.

  • No way I did too!

  • i watched this movie over and over again! it was one of my favorites as a kid!

  • epic. I could theoretically load it onto youtube. I got it.

  • My son used to watch this tape over and over till he wore it out!!!

  • It was Dinosaurs! A fun-filled-trip back in time that Fred savage listens to a song playing on his boom box in his room doing a report on dinosaurs.

  • Fred Savage as Philip listens to the song on his boom box about dinosaurs in a rock band in his room doing his report on dinosaurs.

  • I have loved studying dinosaurs ever since I was two years old. This song really speaks to me. :)

    This show was one of my favorites as a child and now I work at a Dinosaur museum in Tucson where we show it from time to time. :)

  • I watch this Dinosaurs movie is A Fun-Filled-Trip Back In Time that Fred Savage listens to a song playing on his boom box of Mesozoic Mind that dinosaurs sing in a rock band.

  • Holy crap! I used to love this as a kid! I want the full movie!!!

  • WOAH!!! I can't believe I found it! I'm taking a dinosaurs class in college now, but whenever I described this video to my classmates, they had no clue what the hell I was talking about! Thanks for the upload!

  • I wish someone could upload the whole movie! tis a classic!!

  • oh...my...god...

    I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M WATCHING THIS AFTER ALL THESE YEARS LOL

  • i love this song...i still have the movie. and mine is still in real good condition despite how many times i watched this when i was a kid. i loved the part where they are in the classroom and all the chalk writings. cracks me up

  • I have this on VHS still, I had probably seen this over 100 times. Too bad the whole show isnt here. Brings back so many memories :)

  • I used to love this video. My tape is long since rooted though. :(

  • best video ever

  • The Animation is so awful!

  • Maybe they only had a $20 budget in making the animation. I bet Disney and Pixar are making fun of the studio that did that animation to this day :P

  • What cartoon studio did the animation for that music video? It almost resembles Hanna-Barbera or Ruby-Spears or DiC, but is a far-cry from Disney or Warner Bros. :P

  • I have thus on an old tape, dubbed off when we rented it.

    The tape is in poor condition, but this music was what I lived by when I was younger and I cherish it in my heart to this day.

  • oooohmggee! I looved this when I was little. can you upload the rest plllleeeaase??

  • Oh, HELL no; I thought I was the only one that remembered this. But does anyone notice that none of the dinosaurs' guitars have any strings whatsoever?
