I want my 80s Mtv, select and watch.

[BB1]

All those pointless hours of watching videos that made no sense at all, but as a teen in the 1980s they were still fun to watch.

I found a site that has some, so enjoy.  Some work some don't.

http://www.thebestlegaladvice.com

Weird name, but it works. Also use Firefox, I don't know what's up with Explorer.

Start with this one, it was the very first music video that was ever seen on Mtv.
The Buggles - Video Killed the Radio Star

What's your fav   

[dodge freak]

It has to be "my guitar wants to kill your mama"   for those who never seen it Dweezil Zappa -Frank Zappa son- played a long hair pizza delivery man back in the 50's, he was driving a cool 50's Chevy and ran over a dorky look guy , this got him thrown in jail where he played his guitar-kind of like jail house rocks-he also had a crush on some rich folks daughter that he met on his delivery's. Of course the parents hated him and laugh as the police drag him away. While in jail some guard was going to hit him over the head with his night stick , Dweezil Zappa punch him out and threw the guard over the railing. The video ended with some dude sitting behind a DEA desk saying " warning, this could happen to you".

I have on vhs tape and like to get it on dvd but don't trust anybody with it. Think it was show back in the late 80's

What a great site. . .As a teen in the late 80's, early 90's there is alot of stuff on there I haven't seen in years. I love the hair bands. Nothing like a good rock ballad. . . Thanks for posting it.

[Todd Wilson]

HAHAHA!   Thats a great sight! I havent seen some of those videos for 15-20 years.    Now I have Falco - Rock me Amadeus   playing non stop in my head! HAHAHAHA!

IMO that's when MTV was cool...and I don't think it's just because I was a teen then.
I can NOT watch it now. It's nothing but one scene flashing to the next, every .04 seconds...sorta like watching a strobe light for a half hour.


Well, that & it's nuttin' but rap crap too.

What do you mean?  MTV doesnt play videos anymore......   its real world 1 thru 9 repeats.  and i think a half hour show consists of 20 minutes of commercials and 10 minutes of actual show.

[andy74]

that is one killer site! i love 80s music,the rock anyway-gets me made fun of by the wife and kids all the time,but thats  because they have poor taste!

That's for sure.

Sorry Todd, I should have put a *Warning* for that song. Man it's awful.

Cool site. I've always liked April Wine but 90% of you have probably never heard of them. That "Every Night I Rock Myself to Sleep" video is...  And that Tarzan Boy dude is about as flamer as they get.

Talking about flamer. Watch the Dead or Alive You Spin Me Round video. I was probably 10 or 11 when that video came out. I never made the conection. Hell, it was just last year I realized Uncle Arther from Bewitched was gay. Who knew.

[Ponch ®]

MTV Jumped the Shark when they cancelled Beavis and Butthead and when Road Rules started. Not that Road Rules was a bad show, but from that point on MTV became a teen-reality show network.

[BB1]

Paul is also dead.

He sounds like Roger to me on American Dad.

[dodge freak]

[dodge freak]

Yes the lawyer site has only one of each but click on the link by the top, it takes you to www.999videos.com they have more, still some good ones are missing but some really good ones are there also.

I remember Rock me Amadeus back when MTV played it every hour back in 1986 I believe, my roommates all loved it, I thought it was ok, but now after seeing all the crap on TV for the past 20 years , I think its great now.

[BB1]

Wow I didn't know about the 999 site, cool. 

Yo Yo Yo word to ya mutha.
