New Video: Allison Iraheta – Friday I’ll Be Over U

Allison Iraheta may be a ’90s baby but her video for “Friday I’ll Be Over U,” the first single from her debut album, Just Like You, is totally ’80s.

The 17-year-old singer, who came in fourth place on American Idol season 8, pays serious homage to the music videos of arguably the most stylish decade with wicked splashes of color and sketching reminiscent of the A-Ha classic “Take On Me.”

The only thing bad about the video is that it makes you wonder why the same awesomeness wasn’t put into the album’s packaging. Allison’s fire and spunk are uncontainable in the video, yet the album cover paints her in a more timid, even dull light.

Matter not! It’s what’s on the CD that counts, right? (You can get a sample of the album here.)

Check out the brutal hotness of Allison’s video above and get her album when it hits stores on December 1.
