The birth of MTV (they actually only played videos back then!) started the music video revolution! In times like these it's good to look back.
Here's a couple of mine to get things started.
The first video ever played on MTV: The Buggles- Video Killed The Radio Star
Frida- I Know There's Something Going On
Adam Ant- Strip
Duran Duran- The Reflex
Frankie Goes To Hollywood- Relax
I could keep going, but time to let someone else have some fun!
