This is the initialization of MTV... Music television. We had video jockeys, aka VJs... Nina Blackwood, Mark Goodman, Alan Hunter, JJ Jackson, and Martha Quinn.
1st video played was Video Killed the Radio Star.
There were commercials urging viewers to keep it on their cable list.
And we saw many talents come and go.
And now? We have Hannah "I put the ho in Hollywood" Montana twerking with the son of Growing Pains' dad.
There are more reality tv shows and soap operas than music videos. More talk, less song. And of course the generations were influenced by the changes.
So yeah...like... It's 2013.
I want my old MTV.
I don't care what sells. I just want music. I want art. What is on now just does not qualify.
