    Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Jeff B. is *BOX OFFICE POISON*

    I can't play either. MTV didn't go on the air until just before my tenth birthday (and we didn't get cable until 7-8 years later). But the earliest videos I remember are from that 1981-82 era. Steve Miller Band, Abracadabra. Johnny Cougar, Hurts So Good. The Kinks, Come Dancing.https://twitter.com/EsotericCD/status/1318619079025004546 …

    What are the music videos that defined your YOUNG childhood? (Sorry Zoomers, can't play this game.) I'll go first: "Head Over Heels," Tears For Fears "Land Of Confusion," Genesis "When Doves Cry," Prince "Freedom '90," George Michael Zero apologies for liking George Michael.

        We had a startup UHF channel, 69, that is now the CW-affiliate that started as a music video channel in the early 80s in Atlanta. And of course there was Friday Night Videos and Turner started something in the early 80s as well that we could watch over-the-air in Atlanta.

        There was U68 in the mid'80s, good for A-ha at least once a day. And in NE Queens, we could cross the border to roller rink Laces in New Hyde Park where they played videos on a giant screen on one wall. The Police's "Every Breath You Take" was a mainstay.

        Same here, I was almost 11. But the first two videos I ever saw were "Hurts so Good" and The Motels' "Only the Lonely."
