[TheHeyyapeople]

[dogboy4551]

This song always reminds me of the local skating rink when I was growing up. They used to cain this song...

[beverlybradley210]

I want this video on my D750 unit.

[goldsmith1210]

[hellp990]

very early 80s

[hellp990]

[hellp990]

centrefold is another good one....if you weren't in grade eight when this song came out.

[laysampson1231c]

Your video is popular on Ecuador

[ILOVEPUREPOLARIS]

my dad said that he would rollerskate to this song!

[Amirakall]

[SwagR77]

1:03 LMAO look at the guy in the bottom right corner.

[nataliexbreakdown]

i wish there were creative groups like this nowadays

[geetus77]

First video I ever saw on MTV. Yes, kids - they used to show music videos.

[rrhfactor]

Cheese cake...lol!

[grimcity]

Back when pop/rock music was just fun. You'd hear a girl band right before this and probably the Scorpions doing something better than a ballad right after. Aye, the good ole' days.

GET OFF ME LAWN

[alexrogan1]

Wow! A music video!! Wonder if MTV has seen one before?  ;)

Love this song! Thanks for the upload :)

[octobersky92]

awesome music brought me here.

[freethinker008]

I love playing this song on Guitar Hero, both drums and guitar!

[Silvergordikuki]

Energizer Bunny brought me.

[SheRicoSuave]

Thumbs up if you play this for pep band!

[ianhcardinalsfan]

reminds me of the energizer bunny wonder why

[albear972]

Damn! I haven't seen this one in it's entirety since 83'! Goodtimes!

[BrettMiller33]

It must have been great when music videos used to be be FUN

[Redeye1524]

I'm pretty sure that when you get to heaven they have a room that plays freeze frame on loop for all of eternity

[FoxDesertAZ]

marching band is for pussies... we used to put their heads in the toilet and flush it

[tommysmallss]

I remember seeing this on MTV as a kid.

[karinosai]

Don't thumbs up this comment if you didn't play this in marching band, and took a better class in high school than band. Instead, keep listening to the awesome music you love, and tab out to do something productive with your time instead of reading comments and giving them thumbs up. Seriously.

[BlackDeath17123]

Like this if that stupid rabbit did not bring you here.

[iAlwx]

Energizer commercial xD

[shanehenning26]

awsome song

[InertiaEffect]

i hear this at work many times, now i love it!

[candycane454]

Chesse Cakeee .<3

# I'm stupid (:

[Game2Gaming]

[JackieHakalaJackson]

@Game2Gaming

You've got to admit it has a certain entertaining value :P

[shanehenning26]

great song

[1troygood]

This goes out to World Series Game 6 hero David Freese of The St. Louis Cardinals. Tonight, it's game 7-The final and decisive game, and baseball season is finally over.

[MortimerTheClueless]

This song should be our national anthem.

[nebulakuntz]

dang energizer commercial

[piemonster11]

I have a VCR

[TheChptrk]

I just saw an Onion news wire that said "'Freeze Frame’ Comes On Bar Jukebox Just As Man Is Being Dumped." Naturally this meant I had to turn down my radio and listen to the song on youtube.

[hyagorocha2]

thank you everybody hates chris to do i listening this good music

[pickydeer]

The band members always reminded me of different celebrities...Lead singer Peter Wolf reminds me of Henry Winkler who played Fonzi, the bearded guy with glasses reminded me of Jeff Lynne from ELO, the drummer Cruz from the soap opera General Hospital,....

[Seyahhsod]

ENERGIZER COMMERCIAL !!!

[JOSECHETATRIBUTE]

Oh what a classic!

[nastySJpunk]

I thought they said "cheese cake" for the longest time.. Cheese cake!

[Seyahhsod]

@nastySJpunk  I thought they were saying FREEZE PLAY !

[Supersweetguy]

@Seyahhsod Hahhaha!!! That made me laugh. Thanks :-)

[Supersweetguy]

@nastySJpunk Cheese cake?!!! Hahahaha Thats funny...

[bzylizzy]

@nastySJpunk oh funny, that made me giggle....

[loyallooner]

[rbbrrmqn]

@nastySJpunk THAT is just precious--nearly peed my pants, but precious!!!!

[awesomeologyism]

Announcer: Year 3000, he has finally unfrozen.

[psu68born]

in honor of Amy freeze totally cool nyc weather lady

[SweetPipsqueak]

I've heard this SO many times while growing up. I'm a nineties girl. It's a really good thing someone finally decided to use this in an Energizer commercial 'cause I looked it up and someone left a comment saying it was by this band. Thanks Youtube, you've done it again! :D

[Slapchop21]

what ever happened to those bands that had the keyboard players on a strap like a guitar i miss that?

[RetroxBunny]

@Slapchop21 Ooh me too! It just suddenly...dissappeared :(

[doughesson]

@Slapchop21 I'm sorry,friend but there's no easy way to say this:The 80s are over,dude and we have to accept it.No matter how much we miss them,we can't go back.

[TheMinnesotaGamers]

Why can't people understand that this good music? ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)

[MR0806]

I found this album in a pile of vinyl of my parents. I immediately bought a turntable ;D

[davidleegoth]

man 30 years ago rollerskatin with my cutie, but never got lucky. still love the song.

[thebeastcharmander01]

cant stop hitting replay

[SmashLegacy]

This is where the real music is at! Im only 16 and I love these old songs!!!

[TrackStarAA1]

Energizer Bunny anyone?

[1962jbk]

@Pragmatist23 I was thinking the exact same thing. I was thinking that maybe he is an actor though? Anyone know?

[cutegirl3140]

thumbs up if you heard this song when you were little

[iloverent101]

i heard this on everybody hates chris- snowday

[UndesiredDeath]

So many memories from my childhood, sitting in a hockey rink.

[steventylerrocks4730]

i love the lead singer

[Pragmatist23]

The drummer looks incredibly familiar but I can't place him. Has he been in any other bands since the JGB? Great memories of this album, btw.

[GODrules555]

Today is Thursday, and it is September 22, and it is a Birthday to a Queen of Rock and Roll named, Joan Jett. Now a Barbie Doll Picture fits the “Cover” of the Rolling Stone Magazine, and it also sells the “accurate” pose of every picture tells a story for a Barbie doll. Accuracy is the goal of perfection when the index finger goes click for the picture in order to get a FREEZE FRAME. "EYE" 5

[GODrules555]

PICTURE, PICTURE, PICTURE. NOTICE THE INDEX FINGER ON THE CLICK; GOTCHA ON THE FREEZE FRAME! “EYE” 5

[alex14northgate]

Thumbs UP if you heard song on the Energizer Commercial

[sportsmediaguy]

Ah yes, the memories! I remember listening to this song on their album by tape so much that I thought the cassette would wear out. It never did!

[ertvhd1]

"Freeze Flame"! :-)

[iammontecristo]

I was all "Freeze Frame" the last time I went to the dentist.

[americanfellow]

love this song but it seems kinda overplayed when high school marching bands start playing it

[VandorKosciuszko]

Thumbs up if you played this in marching band!

[loutboy]

@VandorKosciuszko thumbs up cause i stuck a flute in your anal cavity at marching band.

[doughesson]

@VandorKosciuszko I'm 6'5 and weigh 250 pounds.Would I opt for the fuzzy hat at halftime when I can be an offensive tackle for the school? :D

[candycane454]

@VandorKosciuszko did it in winterguard :)

[theyearofourlordig88]

FUCK FACE

FUCK FACE

FUCK FACE

[25bloodfang]

[Musicholic29]

@00ColdFusion00

[TheQuickdraw94]

@wassup986 Didn't you post that on Centerfold?

[wassup986]

@TheQuickdraw94 LOL Yeh xD I want to see how many people would think it's funny. It's actually a bet I have with my friend. Sounds weird, but true.

[abbylambertmusic]

My sisters Jam xD

[atomiccriminal]

[N8trone]

[yerpaljesus]

I hear this song at Safeway alot.

[MsLaura721]

Getting primed for the show tonight at DTE ...it'll always be Pine Knob to me!

[killhannahmontana]

YOUTUBE, HATE the commercials!

[plusplusplusplusp]

@killhannahmontana

I'll say. Blame Google, it's the octopus which owns, funds, and pollutes YouTube.

[DylanRed]

[ricksears98]

[MWgame1993]

I saw the guys last weekend and i gotta say BEST BAND EVER!!!!

[gabrielsteffe1996]

thumbs up if you don't give a shit where other people heard this song

[CAnTbESlashed]

Thumbs up if u heard it on simpsons

[ChloeHollyWood2]

thumbs up if you heard this on "Sleepover"!

[Teraforce88]

Which is weirder: The fact that I first saw this video last year on an old BETAMAX tape that contained 3-4 hours of MTV footage from 1985, or the fact that I still have a working Betamax VCR?

[114spencer]

@Teraforce88 o.O

[ineedAmberLamps]

@Teraforce88 Easily the working betamax  :)

[kixxxter]

@Teraforce88 Wow! My dad still has our family collection of what must be around 100 BETAMAX tapes! From what I remember as a kid, about 10 or 15 of those tapes were of music videos recorded from music video TV shows like MV3, Top 40 Videos, Goodnight L.A., and a few more that I've forgotten. I remember the day we got the Betamax and the first music video I recorded was "Hungy Like The Wolf". Funny how Beta was actually superior to VHS!

[Teraforce88]

@kixxxter My betamax was given to me by some friends, along with over 100 tapes to go with it. Most of the tapes are VHS copies on Beta III mode though; only 2 of them are MTV tapes.

[Gecko7291971]

Is it just me, or does the dude @1:30 look a lot like Lindsey Buckingham??

[Gecko7291971]

@0:24, damn, what a tiny Saxophone

[Anthy12]

Eitis :D

[furrypartners]

The employees of Furrypartners love this song!!! For a reason...

[iammontecristo]

Last dentist visit-- I Freeze Framed the entire time. It was an interesting scenario.

[scir91]

HOLY SHIT! the lead singer looks like BRUNO!! really, compare and see!

[dcfanchris]

@scir91 You mean Peter Wolf.

[cherokee40000]

I heard it on the Radio!

[swimmerB0B]

[Scampbell32]

Thumbs up if this the Duck Tales theme song.

[Redbirdgirl88]

love this song :)

[blisteringsnot]

This song still holds a special place in my heart. It was the very first video I saw on MTV, when the channel did what they were designed to do... show music videos.

[chevroletbuick1]

@blisteringsnot and not jersey shore

[Rock0Punk0Ska]

@miguelcruz698 dude, he said it was the first video HE saw on mtv. Not mtv in general.

[arjackson1000]

@blisteringsnot you mean. show amazing music videos. :)

[WallabyWallaby]

Damn, this song is CONSTANTLY playing on the radio at work. (Apparently we're tuned to an 80's station) It's been stuck in my head for weeks...

[broodyart]

The kids need to hear this music!!!!! J geils band, PLEASE post bloodshot & the rest! Expose it so they get to appreciate it like we did. Can't sit still to j geils band. & fact is...kids love to dance! & it's fun stuff!

[tedcantu1]

This is ten times better than rap..... I wholeheartedly agree !

[iammontecristo]

The last time I was at the dentist, this song was playing on the radio and I very nearly got up and dance like an idiot.

[HelloMrHaque]

18 years old and i'd rather listen to this then rap anyday

[DaveWollenberg]

The Geils band hit #4 in Billboard, 4-10-82. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx!

[00ColdFusion00]

Thumbs up if you did NOT hear this on an energizer commercial but heard it on the radio in 81

[Moogaar1]

@00ColdFusion00 I remember buying the album when It first came out (I was 11...lol)

[ERINVB]

@00ColdFusion00 I STILL have the original album!!! :)

[fishhed01]

@00ColdFusion00 im here because i was watching a tom petty thing on t.v and he mentioned how they were going to let j geils band release "dont do me like that",and i didnt even know who they were,even though i know this song

[619russman]

@00ColdFusion00 haha i heard it on the radio in 2011!! bout 4 days ago!!!

[xEdddie]

@619russman i heard like 2 or 3 weeks ago in arizona.

[WrEkGaMiNg]

@00ColdFusion00 Or on the radio in 2011!

[kenwald007]

@00ColdFusion00 I had the album, J. Geils Band had some of the best videos in the early days of MTV, you know when they played music videos.

[kenlow91]

@00ColdFusion00 I actually didn't hear it until bout 83.

[emtfireman813]

@00ColdFusion00...That's why I looked it up.....1981, sitting in my 2nd grade class. The teacher was also the cheerleader coach so the varsity cheerleaders would gather in front of our classroom to practice in tiny little shorts, tank tops or even their uniforms to this song as well as a few others off this album....God bless the late 70's - early 80's LOL

[AvocadoTomato]

@00ColdFusion00 I heard it before the commercial, but waaaaaaay after 81.

[drelle504]

@00ColdFusion00 Of course I've heard this song before the Energizer commercial but thanks to the commercial, I can enjoy a forgotten classic again.

[sithlord1998]

@00ColdFusion00 I heard it at the beginning of Everbody Hates Chris, but I had heard it before. That alright?

[mustwinder]

@00ColdFusion00 What about at the roller rink, does that count?

[Ollie7707]

@00ColdFusion00

neither is true for me....

[lookibatmanitesfatma]

@00ColdFusion00 the energizer commercial reminded me to listen to this song again

[Zachtheemo]

@00ColdFusion00 not in 81... from 97 to now

[sayoian99]

@00ColdFusion00 i heard it from Bill Hicks and again on tv XD

[Aliveandying]

@00ColdFusion00 What if it's neither and I heard it on one of my father's CDs?

[datimsta0]

[bergerac0327]

En pleno verano se puede quedar uno "congelado".

[AleesaDellaRobbia]
