  • After BOTTSRGEDDON, we will be partying in a bomb shelter

  • The best album of the eighties for me...

  • The video is a masterpiece, artistic satire, social commentary and also fun, funny and just plain pretty to watch...and the music? It will be hip as long as people understand the term. What a generation, what a time it was.

  • I always liked this song and video.

  • Fagen is a monster!  Untouchable. Love the guy and his music.

  • Two people are either deaf or stupid.

  • Fagen's the best arranger for well...just about everything..man what beat!!

  • ... a summer smoker underground...

  • That's the video in what Rick Moranis saw a geek guy like his persona. After this. he invite himself to the Dan's next clip with a geek. Totally fine.

  • introduce me to the big blonde.. haha..

  • Can anyone identify the "YES" artwork at 3:30? Thanks!

  • I remember we were expecting real war when this came over the air. I thought to myself, how can they bomb us when we have wonderful people making great music like this. So far so good! keep your fingers crossed for luck. ::)

  • One of my favorite 80's videos.

  • Funny video, excellent music!

    ¡Divertido video, excelente música!

  • NOW THIS IS REAL MUSIC

  • I love it! I watched this video on Night Flight. like when I was 12

  • @alnieves

    HAH! I remember that, but I was OLD then, as now. :)

  • I love the Brubeck reference. Donald knows his music.

  • 28 years... 28 freaking years and this song stands the test of time. The music of today is REALLY bad. Lady dohickey and Justin Fever beiber whatever?? Really?? will ANYBODY remember them in 28 years?? Wanna bet??? GREAT song..EVEN better ALBUM..thanks for posting!!!!!!

  • what a waiste of good pussy,,no need for it in the future. Just as it is today $

    fools

  • I heard this song while shopping at Publix

  • I watched this video there's 27 years ago. It was a relief for the french teenager that I was, asking himself about the consequences of a real war.

    Always a relief 27 years after...

    It has aged well...

  • sandralawson steely dan is still alive hello i just saw them 6 years ago at the copncord pavillionand they sound exactlly the same

  • Every thing seemed to be so simple the year this song was released,family,friends,and life.I love this song, Iwas seven the first time I heard it and every time I hear it,it makes me smile thank you whoever uploaded this video

  • whats with the one dislike???? must be on drugs!!!

  • 80s videos were totally literal dill hole

  • Luv this song & video!!!!...totally 80's!!!

  • sorry lads this is pure 50's ... not a thing like the grease song ... its pure & innocent .. not a lot of songs can claim that ..even with ambush and a french pleat ?

  • I love this song, but its subject matter has always reminded me of the similar subject matter in a song from "Grease II", namely the track, "Let's Do it For Our Country", which also takes place in a bomb shelter.

  • I miss the Cold War.

  • I miss the 80s, just for stuff like this.

  • @SuperGamer87 What I would give to travel back in time.......

  • An MTV classic. Reminds me of grade school and jr. high.

  • One of the regular videos that were played when MTV was born. A grade school "classic"!

  • I've found it. That's my favorite song. It has been in my dreams for a long time.

    Steely Dan! If you are still live, would you like be to my friend, my on Facebook?

  • @sandralawson18 Ironic you say that.

    .

    I posted this because I could never find the video on YT, until TODAY !

    .

    .

    It is the official WARNERBROTHER`SRECORDS youtube site and the link to Fagen`s New Frontier is:

    . watch?v=qBruAooXPNU

  • @classic7890 I know I'm not the only one, but I was looking for

    particlier song, for a long time. No! I'm not just saying that

    by that statement. 

  • @sandralawson18 Over 20 years passed since when I was last saw this video to when I found it on YouTube.

  • @larryclone Well, if you ever get a chance to find it on either Steely Dan's or Donald Fagen's CD, will you down

    loaded if you can? I'm almost thought that this was Sting's voice. Like Wang Chong or something like that. Steely

    does has a pretty voice.

  • great video!!!!!!!!!! great song!!!!!!

  • thanks....

    

  • I just adore Donald Fagen .........

  • @cati64

    me too!!!

  • Fagan's genius--lyrics are satirical, funny, true to the time. Music itself is classic Steely Dan--clean, jazzy and crafted. The whole album is tremendous and this is the original video from the early 80s

  • DONALD FAGEN IS THE BEST. Nightfly was my gateway to Steely Dan...

  • Finally on YouTube too, thanks to the uploader!

  • " Yes we`re gonna have a wing-ding ! " YES ! FINALLY , THE REAL ORIGINAL VIDEO .

  • woah, heard this song thousands of times and grew up with it but never seen this video. Cool! Thanks for uploading it :-)

  • It's 23 years since I last heard this song / saw this video and it's as delightful now as it was back then. Lovely song and a sumptuous video.

  • This is such a cute and creative video. MTV played it a lot in the early days.
