jelbe5 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 We did not have cable so watching MTV was a few and far between treat for me. What were some of your favorite music videos? Some of mine were: Subdivisions by Rush Take A Look At Me Now (Against All Odds) by Phil Collins Jump by Van Halen November Rain by Guns n Roses Sledgehammer by Peter Gabriel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeslieAnneLevine Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) I used to love to watch Yo! MTV Raps, hosted by Fab 5 Freddy I remember liking: Bust a Move, Young MC Hey Ladies, Beastie Boys The Humpty Dance, Digital Underground Brooklyn Queens, 3rd Bass eta: and how could I forget I'm Not Havin It by MC Lyte and Postive K...also Kid N Play, did anyone else love House Party 2: The Pajama Jam with Queen Latifah? Remember Rico Suave by Gerardo? That video is hilarious. I listened to a lot of classic rock at the time too, and didn't really have videos to watch for those. Had to watch movies like A Hard Day's Night and Quadrophenia instead, lol. Edited July 23, 2012 by LeslieAnneLevine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also loved: "Sabotage" - Beastie Boys (it was nominated for a VMA, and the next day "sabotage" was our random bonus word on our spelling test - thanks for the 105% MTV!) "The Perfect Drug" - NIN "Runnin' Down a Dream" - Tom Petty "Everlong" - Foo Fighters "Virtual Insanity" - Jamiroquai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
