I seen all of mtv's promo's/ awards shows from the 80's to when trl stopped being live.Mtv seemed so much better back then than todays mtv.I wish mtv was still like that.You only see jersey shore, rap, stupid teen shows, on mtv now.It sucks.
thank you vh1 classic! THEYVE BEEN SHOWING OLD MTV STUFF FOR ITS 30TH ANNIVERSERY. i finally got to see what it was like before it went to hell! best fucking 3 days of my life! i dont want it to end :(
Flashback from the Good Old 80's. I remember when I used to watch MTV from 11:00 PM Friday night to 6:00 AM on Saturday morning. Now it's sucks so much that I've actually erased it from my favorites list. R.I.P. MTV and thanks for the memories.
Ah,sweet memories of the 80s. Now of course it's probably "I DON'T want my MTV now these days with the state it's in. At least there's always VH1 Classic.
The concept was great. However, it had many haters. MTV was a rock video station and many people stated they were racist. It was a lot of fun to watch but the political pressures was too much for the originators so they sold it(they made a huge profit) and it has been trash ever since.
I'm 14 years old and I'm the only kid in my school that absolutely hates MTV now!!! I always watch MTV stuff from the 80s on here since that's only place I can find good "Music Television"
@WaldoSkates That "I want my MTV, alright" / "Too much is never enough" guy is Billy Idol. The guy with the bee is David Bowie. And the glam rocker guy? I think you might be talking about Boy George, who was the lead singer of Culture Club.
You got it. Girls in the 80s looked way better than girls today which look so horrible by looking like there from the streets and wearing body piercings and artificial hair dyes.
I wish I could have seen tha MTV of the 80's, but at least I had the chance to watch MTV at the end of the 90's, when the shows they aired were still about videos, like top 10 and stuff. By the way, who's the blonde guy who appears before Boy George? Is he really David Bowie?
Maybeh the reason MTV doesn't play music videos like they use to because music has turned to shit so there just putting in shows so they don't have to play the shitty music lmao
While that is a good point then why don't they go out and look for good music, it still exist it's just that it does not receive the attention that it deserves.
No I the problem lays with the fact that they have to pay the music that is popular nowadays so instead they dish out ow budget reality shows that are fucking stupid.
*Shrugs* Maybeh there to lazy to go looking for the good music? XD
But yeah those reality shows are so retarted like for example Paris Hilton My New BFF *rolls eyes* i'm 15 though most of my friends watch mtv all the time. I never do since those shows are so retarted. Usually I have on VH1 Classic or TVLAND, my parents have got me to watching so many old shows and there so much better then now in day. I was born in the wrong generation....
yeah i think they was buyed of a company who made it like it is to day, i miss the top lists of the songs, the 80s is my favorite time of music, then the 70s, and my favorite time of movies is the 80s and the 90s, journey is my favorite band, and steve perry is my favorite singer;)
Ah! The Golden Age!
