That’s the queerest thing I’ve seen in a while. I love it.

Wow - total nostalgia hit from the Toni Basil vid. That was 1981, so I can only assume it must have been on Top of the Pops (UK) - pre MTV for sure but still remember the fox (wolf?) and 2 rabbits doing Irish step dancing 
ETA: The Seth Bogart tune issa bop as well, great homage to the original vid

Toni Basil’s “You Gotta Problem” video
Credit to DEVO (it’s the song Pity You), along with covers of Be Stiff and Space Girls (DEVO joined in on the latter two) from that Toni Basil album Word of Mouth.

MTV started in 81, so not necessarily pre-MTV. The uploader says it was from her TV show. IMDb doesn’t seem to list it, but Spanish Wikipedia lists a one-off production of The Toni Basil Show in 82.
