This weeks Viral Friday #1 position goes to Take On Me (The Literal Version). 29-year-old Dustin McLean of Dustfilms created a new version of the video for 1985 song “Take On Me” by the band a-ha. The runner up spot is for Trident Insurance with The Trident Girls. UK insurance company Trident was looking for a ‘sexier’ way of promoting the sometimes boring world of insurance. 4 Softies And A Pizza Guy completes this week’s top 3. “PDC 2008″ is the debut single of the new boyband “4 Softies and a Pizza Guy”, a mix of 98 Degrees, Backstreet Boys, ‘N Sync and New Kids on the Block.
