By “back in the day” do you mean the 80’s when MTV started? Being a teenager from late 70’s to mid 80’s ALL the music videos were great. It was a revolution.

I remember the first night well. It was a separate cable box that needed to be hooked up to the tv and I had it hooked up well ahead of time. A few friends came over with anticipation and then magic happened...

“Video Killed The Radio Star”

At 12:01am on August 1, 1981, history was made when MTV, the first 24-hour video music channel, launched onto our television sets and literally changed our lives with the birth of the music video. The first video ever played on the network was quite ironic — “Video Killed The Radio Star” by The Buggles.

The 80’s had powerhouses like Michael Jackson, Madonna, Cindy Lauper, not to mention all the other bands.


So hard to even say what my favorite was....

I guess if I had to pick only one it would be this https://youtu.be/nTizYn3-QN0

Very cool Serge. When we were sheltering from Katrina in 2005 at my brothers house in Houston I encountered my first high definition broadcast and it was a Duran Duran concert. Still remember it...WoW!

Michael Jackson’s video for “Thriller” was released nearly 40 years ago, on December 2nd, 1983. Director John Landis (The Blues Brothers, An American Werewolf in London) extended the track — the seventh and final single released from the Thriller album — into a nearly 14-minute-long musical horror film, letting Michael indulge his monster-movie fantasies. It got saturation play on MTV and has been seen more than 149 million times on YouTube.

Every decade and every generation has their own winners... MTV music videos are history but youtube is alive and well.

#1 IN 3 MONTHS IT REACHED NO 1 IN OVER 30 COUNTRIES

#2 GANGNAM STYLE IS THE MOST WATCHED VIDEO EVER ON YOUTUBE

3 ITS HORSE RIDING DANCE BECAME HUGELY POPULAR

#4 GANGNAM IS AN AFFLUENT AREA IN SOUTH KOREA

#5 INITIALLY MANY PEOPLE MISHEARD THE SONG AS “OPEN CONDOM STYLE”

#6 IT HAS BEEN HAILED AS A FORCE FOR WORLD PEACE



I can not think of music on youtube and not remember PSY from nearly 10 years ago now.

PSY - GANGNAM STYLE(강남스타일) M/V
