This is a bit after my time, but for many teenage years, life revolved MuchMusic, which is comparable to MTV. It was weird when I discovered that I didn't really fit the demographic anymore, but in pre-Internet times, this was how young people found out the latest trends :-)

I was at the drugstore a few months ago and I was totally surprised to see that Herbal Essences was still being made! I bought some of the Tea-lightfully Clean shampoo but was disappointed that it didn't have the scalp tingling zing of other tea tree oil shampoos. To be honest, it smells like candy for some reason.

The ads totally sold me on the product - as a young adult they were pretty edgy for the time and I liked the shampoo a lot for a while. I looked up some of the newer ads and they are positively boring!

one of my most disgusting and disturbing films ever made, yet at the strange time oddly compelling and at times even beautiful.



"life is beautiful, it really is. without it, we'd all be dead.



it certainly gave me a new appreciation for Madonna and Roy Orbison...

actualy more of a documentary about Soviet Musicals than a musical movie in of itself, but it did show that Commies loved to dance and sing

Finally, it's 2017, so I can post one of the greatest car commercials of all time.

I love South Park. That's putting it mildly. Yes, there's a few episodes that are 'uh dafuq?' but the past few seasons have been great!

of course back in those days, I was (and still am) a Nintendo loyalist, so I didnt even play this game until 10 years later

Are 1997 ads gonna start making you feel old? It's okay, we don't get 'old', we become vintage! :D

I made myself a ringtone with a refrain from a RATM song. If you are familiar with RATM you'll immediately know what it is.
