We used to get off work at the restaurant and go watch MTV at someone's place. Video killed the radio star. Now BS crap killed the video star.

Saw MTV once. Was inside a house back in the 80's after cable started up and MTV was playing on their TV... Didn't look like anything I'd spend money on

Our son was 3 or 4 when this came out; he freaked out when it came on MTV.

Yeah MTV was great when it started, the racists bastards refused to play Micheal Jackson songs as they were not Rock 'N Roll - then it all turned to shit.
(I happen to agree, & I was kidding about them being racists) |
