Side by side, you can tell how hard they worked to make every detail look as close to accurate as possible. Paul Rudd really was dedicated to making his performance perfect. LOVE THIS.
What a terrific tribute! Paul Rudd rules. My heart still hurts for Pete Burns. Such a great looking guy and performer at first. And then the descent into body dysmorphia. Miss you Pete...
I love how both Paul and Jimmy went full force on this. Not only recreating shot for shot, but even singing the song themselves as well. Even Paul got the eye roll in there at 02:30.
@@filipesimoes3450 No. Read the video information and description above. Both tracks were played simultaneously and the layering was spot on. You can actually hear Paul singing too.
Haha, twice... When I first watched it I was at the skatepark, looking for inspiration or tutorial videos, this showed on my feed, and next thing I knew the lights went off and I just skated home... 😅 I had been watching this on loop for more than an hour.
The eye roll at 2:30 is everything 😂😂 this is honestly one of my very favourite songs and I’m so happy Paul did this! 😂 no competition which one of them aged better 😬 poor silly Pete 🤦🏻♀️
In every spoof video he makes, Paul Rudd is a master of copying the original performer (movements, facial expressions, everything) with JUST ENOUGH exaggeration to ramp up the silly factor but not so much as to lose the feel that he is doing a really spot-on impression.
He looked fine the way he was...should've kept it that way. So many people mess up their looks due to botched plastic surgery (Kenny Rogers comes to mind).
man the funny part is all they had to do was re-create it....they didn't have to even add anything hahahahaha. But seriously why the fck was the original from the 80's clearer than the one made today ahahahah wtf!
This is AMAZING!!! Jimmy & Paul hit it out of the park! I think Pete Burns would have LOVED this! Now they should do A Flock of Seagulls "I Ran". I can picture it already!
Watching this side by side was so freakin awesome ! I watched the old one and then rewatched their version and so glad I found this video ! Paul Rudd ROCKS !!!!
Shot by shot remake. Amazing dedication and research of production and of course Paul and Jimmy. The 80s is a never ending buffet of material to goof on.
I don’t think a lot of people realize just how difficult it is to recreate something to an absolute T. Rudd literally copies all of his movements perfectly down to an eye roll. Fantastic
@@CaraMandel thanks for sharing this with us all,best wishes from the wirral peninsula,bounded by the mersey and the Dee and the Irish sea...geography and rhyme...ps Pete grew up here...
The gold-painted arms flexing the fingernail extensions, as well as the shower of glitter, both made me laugh a great deal remembering the original very well from having watched it repeatedly back in the middle 1980s.
I graduated from high school the year this song was popular (yea, I'm old get over it). I also went to a small private school that was primarily International students who thought our American customs were weird. When it came time to pick a Senior class song this is what my Senior class of 19 students came up with. It was meant to be satirical and to this day every time, I hear this song it always makes me laugh.
I remember seeing this music video on TV back in the 80s. Paul and Jimmy you boys have way too much time on your hands, but very well done...this was such a good club song...you boys made me smile today, thank you.

Two things. The 80's were insane, and Paul Rudd is a National Treasure.
YUP
Some of us have been lucky enough to live through both. 😀
ABSOLUTELY. I WAS THERE AND NOW AM HERE. RUDD ISGENIUS. AND THE 80’s were CRAY
I was thinking the exact same thing😂
100% agree !
THANOS: i have an army
TONY STARK : we have Paul Rudd
luis Capdevila this is an underrated comment 😂
This say Loki)))
Lol, this Made my day 😂

Rick Grimes : We have a Daryl XD
I geuss we know now what Antman did while he was stuck in the quantum realm
Ha!
This is the best comment.
This is totally canon for me now
But he had only 5 hours tho
Pretty much basically
Legend says you have watched this more than once.
You came back for this didn't you.
YUP, IM STILL THE MOST RECENT COMMENT🤣
Yep, I sure did.😁 in fact I just got done watching it again.😆
Yes, I did.
They nailed it. Paul looks like he’s having so much fun with it 😂
Just watched it I think I’ll watch it again thou
I love him so much more now
You know Paul Rudd actually sang the whole thing? He was entirely committed to this
I need to hear that XD
😮😮 nice!
I totally believe that, it looks like he's having a blast throughout the whole thing
Even he said that the song was hard to sing.
Just imagine how many times they had to listen to that song to make the parody.
This should have been Endgame's post credit scene.
Yeahhhh. Ant man & Thanos performing this song.😂😂😂😂😂😂
I agree
With Ant Man War Machine and Thor lmao
Or all the avengers coming at the end
It was
And he gets to be Ant-man in Endgame?! This really is Paul Rudd’s world...
It appears the timeline has diverged again...we are no longer in the worst timeline :-)
This is Paul Rudd's world, we're just living in it
Kylo Ren I understood that reference ☝🏼
We just rent Paul Rudd's oxygen.

Without the side by side, it's amazing.
With the side by side, it's a masterpiece.
I love Paul and Jimmy's commitment......and HUGE props to the set designers, hair and makeup, and editor.
Literally remade shot for shot. Best thing that Tonight Show has done by far
original had 2 extra's. rudd had himself and fallon. It's not shot ofr shot. It's great though.
The jack black and jimmy was better but this was good too.
I want Jimmy to do this with as many guests as he can from iconic music videos from the 80s and early 90s :)
i hate it
they did another one a couple years ago that was hilarious too
There needs to be an award created just for this. Seriously.
There is already one , but It is organized in spanish speaking countries, type on youtube: TU CARA ME SUENA
No disagreement here. This is pure genious and done with affection.

As a huge Pete Burns fan.....I approve this. 🤣🤣🤣
This is not only hilarious.....it's spot on.
Pete would have been honored.
This isn’t just funny. It’s also incredibly well done.
I think Paul Rudd really enjoyed this 😂
Who wouldn't
@@ven2983 THAT'S IT.
We all did
Rocky Wang 🤣
The eyeroll was golden 😂😂😂
Pete Burns was golden :.).
The part I was waiting for.
Paul Rudd is one of those completely natural performers.
Rolf Hartmann Naturally funny guy!
Ya Paul rudd did it better
What a terrific tribute! Paul Rudd rules. My heart still hurts for Pete Burns. Such a great looking guy and performer at first. And then the descent into body dysmorphia. Miss you Pete...
Geez the celebrity worship
This is great, but Pete Burns was a nasty piece of work towards the end.
@@vikingsong2068 i dont know your end btch! but i know how amazing Pete was at his prime and unforgetable artist he is!
I wouldn't say it's funny in anyway, but it is very interesting and they put a lot of work into it.
That was a good tribute
I didn’t think Paul Rudd could be so…fabulous! Loved this
I love how both Paul and Jimmy went full force on this. Not only recreating shot for shot, but even singing the song themselves as well. Even Paul got the eye roll in there at 02:30.
Well spotted. Now that's attention to detail.
I noticed that too haha
I just saw that 😅😅😅
I think the Rudd eye roll was just a bit saucier......amazing!
I cracked up when I noticed it with Paul first then rewound and cracked up all over again. 😂 that’s some serious commitment 🙄 🥰
As if this wasn't epic enough, he's NOT lip syncing! He was talking to Jimmy Fallon about how hard some of the vocals were.
I think he was just lip syncing his own vocals
@@filipesimoes3450
No shit here tho
@@filipesimoes3450 No. Read the video information and description above. Both tracks were played simultaneously and the layering was spot on. You can actually hear Paul singing too.
teeth6556 No, dude. Paul Rudd sang the song in a recording booth and then sang along to it in the studio while filming the music video,
I chose my words poorly: I mean he isn't lip synching from the original, HE actually sung the song himslf..then he lip synched his own vocals.
What I love about the recreation is that it managed to be hilarious and yet a respectful tribute at the same time.
Absolutely right, so good!
It’s funny because of how faithful it is to the first one.
Wait....they were trying to be funny?
@@Watthead80 They weren't funny, but at least they weren't clearly disrespectful. We gotta respect the dignity of that freak from Dead or Alive.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Paul Rudd is a national treasure.
Years later and I’m still cracking up at this.
THE 80S WERE AWESOME
Always grateful I got to experience them!
Thanks for the post. FYI this is my interview with Pete Burns stevepafford.com/dead-alive-g-y-pete-burns-interview-youve-never-heard/
The music. The music was AWESOME. I also got to experience it.
YEAH EXCEPT FOR THE AIDS EPIDEMIC AND REAGAN!!!!! WOOO
I was born in 1997, but I love the 80s music, thanks to my parents. In fact, today "hits" are garbage compared to those 80s songs.
If Dead or Alive ever get a biopic. They'll know who to cast.
someone more feminine
A2Z83 thats right!
it will be called "You Spin Me Right Round: Boheman Rhapsody but Dead or Alive
Note, their ages are comparable. Paul Rudd is basically double the age of Pete burns back then and yet his appearance has barely changed.
R.I.P Pete Burns
I'm obsessed with this.
Ikr I can't quit watching it. It's awesome!!!!
@@katieflesher1869 every time I think I'll get over it. It appears again on my feed and I have to watch it at least twice 😂
Rossy Sánchez same lmao
Haha, twice... When I first watched it I was at the skatepark, looking for inspiration or tutorial videos, this showed on my feed, and next thing I knew the lights went off and I just skated home... 😅 I had been watching this on loop for more than an hour.
Very much
The eye roll at 2:30 is everything 😂😂 this is honestly one of my very favourite songs and I’m so happy Paul did this! 😂 no competition which one of them aged better 😬 poor silly Pete 🤦🏻♀️
OMG I hadn't seen the eye roll. It IS everything!
Paul Rudd is a legend, totally takes the piss out of himself with no ego. His Mac and me prank is gold. 😂
Paul had got some moves. The hips action,the head action and the arms action. PERFECT!!!
LOL - one of the best remakes of anything I have ever seen!
And Now you meet Tom Holland and his umbrella how could you call Tom's performance?
And the eye roll!
I love Paul Rudd so much. He seems like such a genuinely kind and funny human being. Can’t get enough of him😩
His eyes...omg he's into it.
stop with those eye rolls ... i die everytime
In every spoof video he makes, Paul Rudd is a master of copying the original performer (movements, facial expressions, everything) with JUST ENOUGH exaggeration to ramp up the silly factor but not so much as to lose the feel that he is doing a really spot-on impression.
Who the hell thought it was a good idea to do something like this? Give them a raise 😅
So uncanny I'm watching it on repeat.
Pete was so damn Beautiful back then. RIP. Paul did a cute job.
He looked fine the way he was...should've kept it that way. So many people mess up their looks due to botched plastic surgery (Kenny Rogers comes to mind).
Perfect Endgame post credits scene.
Love that they played a Heineken commercial with Paul Rudd just before this. The representation 🤣
Paul Rudd is truly the gift that keeps on giving!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I'm so glad he hit the eye roll.
1:47 Paul's head motion cracks me up every time.
Spine round
man the funny part is all they had to do was re-create it....they didn't have to even add anything hahahahaha. But seriously why the fck was the original from the 80's clearer than the one made today ahahahah wtf!
The fact he actually sang this as well to an almost identical sound is amazing haha
Wow, Paul rocked it! He nailed every move! Impressed. 👏🏻
This is perfect. I wish Peter Burns were still alive to see it. It's an awesome love letter to this classic!
C'mon, when did you EVER hear him referred to as PETER Burns? It's PETE. At least know the man's name!
@@teeth6556 r/gatekeeping
@@hiljoy487 what does that mean?
OMG! is he dead?
Abe J. Simpson yeah he died years ago sadly 😔
Paul looks like he's fulfilling a childhood dream there, he's loving the moment 😜
This is why we love Paul Rudd!! You never disappoint! Perfection!!
Nailed it. But seriously….Why did this bring me so much joy?!? great start to the day, I’ll be singing this all day and thinking of Paul.
2:30 He absoloutely nailed the rolling of the eyes
90% comments This is what antman did in Quantum realm
10% comments Paul Rudd really did great
This is AMAZING!!! Jimmy & Paul hit it out of the park! I think Pete Burns would have LOVED this! Now they should do A Flock of Seagulls "I Ran". I can picture it already!
YES YES AND YESSSS😁
That would be hilarious. 😀
OMG YES YES YES YOU ARE OFFICIALLY NOW MY BEST FRIEND!!!!! I love the 80s!
2:30 He even did the eye roll 😂
This made me laugh out loud and long for MTV of the '80s!!!! GREAT JOB!!!!!!!
Before rap destroyed pop music.
I watched this at 1:30am and was laughing thru the whole thing, trying not to wake my husband. I love their videos that these two guys make - genius.
2:30-That eye roll is EVERYTHING 💜💜!!! Paul nailed it! I was dying the whole time watching this on Jimmy Fallon. Love u 💋 Pete 💜
Watching this side by side was so freakin awesome ! I watched the old one and then rewatched their version and so glad I found this video !
Paul Rudd ROCKS !!!!
@2:29 the dedication to the eye roll is priceless. Great attention to detail.
Fabulous! No matter how many times I hear this song I never tire of it. Paul did a great job recreating it.
When I was younger I loved this song so much I called it my song I spun around dead fast one time I fell over and banged me head lol
Thanks for doing this side by side comparison
toblie83 My pleasure!!
I've got 4 tattoos of Pete Burns, so obviously my heart is with him..but this video is crazy good, all the details are amazing
My face hurts from smiling and laughing so hard. God l love Paul Rudd so bad. JF is hilarious. 😅❤
Rudd is a gift to humanity
This is THE BEST THING IVE EVER SEEN😂😂
2:32 el volteaito de ojos fue lo que me mato, jajajajajajaja! 😂😂😂
2:30
Oscar Soto 2:32
jajajajajajaja 😂
Y las mirada super afeminada, le salió tal cual!! APLAUSOS DE PIE!!
As if I needed another reason to love Paul Rudd. His commitment to this…wow. Talk about loving what you do!
Shot by shot remake. Amazing dedication and research of production and of course Paul and Jimmy. The 80s is a never ending buffet of material to goof on.
I remember DOA's version when it first came out - we were stunned
I don’t think a lot of people realize just how difficult it is to recreate something to an absolute T.
Rudd literally copies all of his movements perfectly down to an eye roll.
Fantastic
I mean paul rudd is hilarious but..cmon that seems easy. Lol props to the crew or editing team .
It's not that accurate.
He was a little bit more bouncy. Haha But I loved it 😂
Exactly, this is just amazing, this is gold, is even better than most of the cover and tribute videos I have seen, that’s dedication 😂
It was not to a T. There were many differences.
Thanks for the side by side. These these two are gems. I played this video every night as a DJ in the 80-90 goodGod era of dance clubs.

That long hair really works for jimmy, doesn’t it :D Paul is killing it though ! 10/10 would watch again
this video shows up on my recommended list every 2 months or so. I watch it EVERY SINGLE TIME!!!!!
Its absolutely over the top hilarious, sheer genius of paul rudd and jimmy is mind boggling.
The gold-painted arms flexing the fingernail extensions, as well as the shower of glitter, both made me laugh a great deal remembering the original very well from having watched it repeatedly back in the middle 1980s.
This should've been then endgame post credit scene
Right round, baby, right round round round right down to the glitter throw....AWESOME!!! Well done guys!
2:07 I'm crying laughing because we actually danced like this. And it was so much fun.
Madness of the 80s can only be understood by undertaking as this!
I could study this song for days, nights, weeks, and months, and I will not ever be as good. This is perfection at its best.
Oh God, I thought Paul Rudd was the original 80's video. The natural way to dance, the face, the video quality. Damn!
This is what I needed at five in the morning.
I don't need sleep, I need this.
Jacqueline Jones No regrets.
One of the best Paul Rudd performs. He needs a lot of good movies
Everyone talking about the recreation of the video, wich I agree is quite impresive
But damn those hair styles where down right MAGESTIC!
Paul really enjoys this! He is amazing. I also liked the recreation of King of Wishful Thinking. They should do more 80s!
I saw this for the first time today! And i was actually amazed at how accurate this was! The mannerisms and everything! Just a classic!
I graduated from high school the year this song was popular (yea, I'm old get over it). I also went to a small private school that was primarily International students who thought our American customs were weird. When it came time to pick a Senior class song this is what my Senior class of 19 students came up with.

Paul Rudd and Jimmy Fallon should receive a special GRAMMY award for the best 80s video remake ever, ever, ever!
The eyeroll. Perfection.
That was excellent!!! Wow, Paul Rudd 100% accurate. I couldn't stop laughing thou, but that eye roll damn!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
I can't stop watching this! Paul Rudd is amazing in everything! He's a national treasure
Is it weird to say Jimmy Fallon looks really good in this lmaoo like really good 😭
TOTALLY
I didn't know I needed this random video in my feed. Thank you.
When I hear this song on Sirius XM all I can think about is this video and it makes me smile.
someone having too much fun..makes me proud to be from england!
I didn't know I needed this in my life, but now I do know and I have it, thank the good Lord.
Pete Burns was much hotter. RIP Pete, you were so gorgeous and didn't even know it.
I remember seeing this music video on TV back in the 80s. Paul and Jimmy you boys have way too much time on your hands, but very well done...this was such a good club song...you boys made me smile today, thank you.
I've watched both singly. The obsession to detail satisfies my soul. Thank you for putting them together! Amazing!
