Funny, I remember the songs but not the videos. I was here when dirt was new so I have seen everything from Little Orphan Annie on the radio to whatever is happening now. But even back when MTV was new, I didnt watch the videos. I think George Carlin (or maybe Lewis Black) once said "if you watch a music video on the MTV and your mental picture of what the song is about matchs whats onscreen: you should go kill yourself".
Politically incorrect, of course. Maybe not good life advice. But it tells you how some of us feel about MTV
