Weezer's video for "Take On Me" cover stars Stranger Things' Finn Wolfhard and his band Calpurnia

I would highly recommend everyone goes and listens to the “response” cover from Toto, that got barely any attention - Weezers Hashpipe.

The two bands were on tour together when Weezer’s Africa dropped, so its pretty clear how this came about. Toto did a much better job of not just sounding like they were Weezer imo, and it’s a darn shame their side of this coin didn’t get more exposure.

Edit - actually it looks like they weren’t on tour together, even though I am absolutely adamant I remember that happening. Cant find any evidence on the goog’s :confused:
