Remember when MTV played music videos?

thismyusername had a video to watch said Tue, Oct 2nd 2018 at 12:28am ET

New beck video really reminded me of the old days when music videos were music videos…

the dance moves and layout really remind me of a daft punk video.

Not really. We lived in the country, so no cable TV. Saw some at friends and Grandma’s. Lots of smashing pumpkins videos…

  Yep. Before MTV, cell phones, the internet, and flying cars.

Do you remember The Box? Jukebox video channel. Call the 900# and pay to watch the videos you want. I never paid, just occasionally put it on because people would request some different stuff than MTV had.
