These four minutes we have here are the music video for the song "Ghostbusters" for the very famous film with the same title. The artist is African American singer Ray Parker Jr. around the age of 30 and more than another 30 years later this is still his career-defining song. He may not have the greatest voice, but it fit the film and song nicely in terms of tone and delivery. Everybody over the age of 25 has probably heard it and most have seen the film as well. It is extremely catchy no denying. but the music video is not on par unfortunately. It isn't bad either though and the inclusions of Danny DeVito, Peter Falk and Others joining in (as well as the actors from the film) are a nice addition. This one here was nominated for a Golden Globe and Oscar, but lost to Steview Wonder on both occasions. But it managed to take home the BAFTA at least. All in all, it's probably enough if you listen to the record instead of seeing this little music video, but it isn't bad either by any means. I give it a thumbs-up overall. The audio elevates the visual I guess.

I love the movie and this video is lots of fun with cameos and Ernie Hudson and the rest of the Ghostbusters cast. This video was at the peak of videos with MTV pretty much defining the music tastes for a generation and then some.

This is a classic music video from the film, however there is someone that pops up at :43 into the video that we don't know and he isn't IMDb listed. Believe he was a part of the production team named 'Woody - somebody' but we're not certain. Wonder if anyone out there knows/Thank you.
