76/100 Video - "Living on Video" - Trans-X (1983)


In the early 80s, "Living on Video" by Montreal's Trans-X had all the fixings for a teenage boy.

Video games. Check.
Synth laser beams. Check.
Robots. Check.
Thrashing Keytar. Check.
Cute girl dancing. Check.
A French girl. Bonus Check.


"Living on Video" not only sounded like the future; the lyrics about surveillance predicted the future. 

The clip sounds and looks like some sort of backstreet video game arcade. Bring your quarters.
