Wow! Talk about memories. I'm 10 years old again. Sitting on the floor in front of our 19 inch Hitachi color tv. My grandmother always got to sit on the one chair in our living room. Good times. Do you think I could get this as a ring tone?

[openhandslap]

@bknyspirit i did make it my ringtone!! i just camera phone video taped it from here, and....ringtone! BUT, it makes me not wanna answer calls, just so i can hear it loop over and over. WARNING: youll get lots of odd stares from people on the train - or anywhere!! gotta throw this in...ahhh, the GOOD OL DAYS!

@taylorjohson It says in the description: 1982

[retroguy1976]

wpix should use 11alive again instead of pix11

[jonthom11702]

Wow, that bass line took me right back to my childhood!  Thanks for digging this up!

[SFPDUSMC1]

I was eighteen in 1982. Grew up in New Brunswick NJ. This threw me back in time.I really miss those days. Thank you for that.

[Kingcire72x]

@henryvrgl Never thought I would be reminiscing like this though OOOweee! Old Na Na  True Scghool NYC heads know this stuff

[howardtheman]

for those who live in New York City like me,they need to bring this station indentification back

[MattTheSaiyan]

Next best thing to a time machine.

[OllieAverage]

Best station ID ever

[bloodymeerkat78]

I wish I was born in the late 70's-early 80's. my parents missed those days. when tv was the best!!!! after 1995 tv began to SUCK!!!!! especially when wb11 aired. Now tv is mindless cacophony!!!!!!

[Stablemable2]

Yeah back then Tv programs werent laced or overlaped with station ID or some promo during a program.....I hate that stuff....its overkill with ads.

[edwthompson313]

@bloodymeerkat78 The independent channels were always the best one. Classic WPIX, WWOR, those were the days.

[JimR541]

And then The Honeymooners would come on.

[fronio89]

And Space 1999

11! 11 aliiiive!

Its amazing how that little jingle brings back such fond nostalgic memories of me as a kid (I was 13 in 1982) in Brooklyn, NY sitting in front of the living room 25 inch tv (the only tv we had in the house, unlike today where people practically have a tv in each and every room) watching my favorite movies, classic tv shows, and cartoons. No cable tv back then either. Just the good old rabbit eared antenna. And in those days you really had a variety of good stuff to watch.

[Nicholas197813]

@classicphile I THOUGHT 11 ALIVE WAS ON WXIA  IN ATLANTA GEORGIA

[classicphile]

@Nicholas197813 It could have been. I dont know. But I do know that 11 Alive was on in New York city.

[tyrese3745]

@Nicholas197813 It still is. WPIX (PIX 11) decided to use that moniker simply because WXIA HD was among the popular station down in Atlanta. Both WXIA and WPIX started using the slogan around September 1976.

[TokyoAnimeJunkie]

@classicphile Amen Brother Amen. The Kids of Today will NEVER know the quality of TV we had and also the fact they'd end their BROADCASTING day something unheard of today. Man I miss those days.

[Tenor5274]

@classicphile wow I was living in Brooklyn at that time too from 1979-1984...I was 8 years old in 1982. But I remember that same kind of nostalgia...we had REAL programs in those GREAT old days :)
