Ah, the halcyon days of my youth when I did, indeed, turn it on and leave it on. Whole Saturday afternoons would go by with my BFF and me waiting until they finally showed and Adam Ant video.

Heck, I remember when they didn't have enough videos and had to play weird filler cartoons.

Kids these days with your You Tube and your ipods. You don't know how easy you have it. Now get off my lawn.

*is old*

A thousand times yes. Bon Jovi videos on MTV got my mom through the day when she was stuck at home taking care of me and my brother.

oh hell, YES!

My parents would not get cable! Good thing I had friends to hang out with. Got to watch it at my Grandma's house, too.

In the still frame, Culture Club is sending a message to the future in a language it will understand--texting: "m WANT im." Well, it's clear that "m" really wants instant messaging, but will have to wait on that. But who the hell is "m"?

I kinda miss those days!!

[lebongirl.livejournal.com]

Oh most definitely YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

I so miss the heyday of MTV. We didn't have cable, but I'd go to my friend's almost every day so we could watch.

I remember Friday night video fights. I was quite happy when Duran Duran's the Reflex was kicking @$$!

YES

I didn't actually have cable until years after MTV started... but I remember these commercials.

Boy George! I'd ask what he's up to these days but apparently he's revitalizing his career...
