Well, what else are you going to do for a cover of Take On Me?&nbsp;Featuring Stranger Things actor Finn Wolfhard and his band Calpurnia,&nbsp;Carrick Moore Gerety recreates&nbsp;Rivers Cuomo&#39;s teenage years and the birth of the band that became Weezer. And then, their live action performance turns into animation, which is very much in the style of the iconic Steve Barron-directed video&nbsp;of the A-ha song.Gerety and fellow animators Jocelyn &amp; Jocelyn have done a fine job with that. And Wolfhard gets to try out a big hair look that he&#39;ll probably be sporting in the next season of ST.

"I think we could have been the last to shoot there," says Atlantic's Claire Stubbs, who commissioned the video. "It was supposed to be brought back to life as a lido but the recession has knocked that on the head."
The video's probably summed up what things will be like after a few more years of Crunch. And according to Jordan, only the jellyfish will survive. "The small jellyfish at the beginning of the video is a Turritopsis Nutricula, a species of jellyfish that can live forever!"
