Thomas Dolby was awesome

I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to run upon these two Thomas Dolby videos. My dad had the Thomas Dolby cassette tape (in Stereo!) when I was a kid and it was my favorite cassette after The Beach Boys’ Surfin’ Safari. I barely remember these videos from the early daze of MTV, but could they be any more innovative or cooler? Seriously, I wish I could go back to grad school to write a paper on the video for “Hyperactive.”

Here’s a breakdown of the estimated amount of times I’ve listened to “Hyperactive” in my life.

Age Birth to 4-years old: N/A
Age 5-6: probably 400 times
Age 7-29 years: maybe 1-2 times, if it was on the radio or playing as background
