Kickass song and video from the 1980s, for anyone who's unfamiliar. This YTMND is copying the art style used throughout the video. Google image search for "take on me video." First 2 images are a nice example.

What's with the lines going thruogh it?
July 1st, 2005
(0)
In the video, lines go through the work, and there's a contrast in shading on either side of the line. At least, that's how I remember the video. If you stop the YTMND (hit ESC), you should be able to see it, I dunno.
July 1st, 2005

WHOA. Someone actualy drew art for a YTMND and made it work with a different song than a fad. Great. Take on me...take me on...

This song warmed my heart, because I remember seeing the music video. And it looks like another fad is created.

Quite possibly the best YTMND ever to come from a fad. Hats off.

ImpactMcSlam, why would you give "What is NES" a 1/5? :| It's based on the same fad and even tho your YTMND is good, the person who made the NES one clearly put a lot more time and effort into it than yours.
