"Video, Video" was the Danish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1982, performed in Danish by Brixx.
The song was performed 13th on the night, following Spain's Lucía with "Él" and preceding Yugoslavia's Aska with "Halo, Halo". At the close of voting, it had received 5 points, placing 17th in a field of 18.
The song is in praise of the then-new technology of video recorders, with the singer describing the wealth of viewing he has on tape — everything from Humphrey Bogart to Wimbledon. Indeed, he remarks that "Susanne" (possibly a lover) has left him for fear that his viewing habits have made him "not all normal". She herself is "raving mad".
It was succeeded as Danish representative at the 1983 Contest by Gry Johansen with "Kloden drejer".

Famous quotes containing the word video:
“I recently learned something quite interesting about video games. Many young people have developed incredible hand, eye, and brain coordination in playing these games. The air force believes these kids will be our outstanding pilots should they fly our jets.”
—Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)
