This makes me nostalgic too. Not the music (I didn’t listen to X at the time), but the video. Circa 1980, I had a long bus ride home from high school in the Valley to the middle of LA, and a lot of what I saw looked like this. The guy who appears briefly at 0:50 (encrusted with plastic doodads, tipping his peaked cap at the camera) was a regular on Hollywood Boulevard, where I changed buses.
