What Ever Happened To...

As I sat there this morning pumping away (ouch, ouch, ouch) I could not help but wonder what ever happened to music videos.

At around 8am this morning I made my way to the couch and started flipping around looking for a pumping-mood kinda show and I stumbled on VH1 Classic. They were playing 80's music videos. I must say that watching the videos again was kinda nostalgic, they took me back and memories came rushing in. I saw Erasure, The Cure, John Waite, Prince, the only thing that would of made it complete would of been to see a Men At Work video.

The only time I hear of music videos now days is when Madonna or Britney Spears has a new one coming out and MTV milks it for all it is worth.

Yes, 80's music videos were cheesy, most of them consisted of the singer and well, that was it, but I, as many of us did, grew up with them and can even remember a show called Friday Night Videos. I was a pre-teen then and my TV was all I had on a Friday night. Videos are not what they used to be, whether that is good or bad, I don't know, but I am glad that there is still a channel out there that can make me remember what it was like to be young and stupid.
