Lauren....that a-ha video was back from when MTV used to play all music all the time......oh the days. I can't even begin to tell you how many hours of MTV I used to watch with the original VJs Martha Quinn, J.J. Jackson(who sadly passed away), Alan Hunter, Nina Blackwood and Mark Goodman. Does anyone remember how at the top of every hour MTV would preview upcoming videos and the rocket would launch. Those were definitely the good ole' days of MTV. I HATE MTV now and absolutely refuse to watch it!!!! What happened to the videos?

| I'm glad I could bring back some good memories...It's sad what that has turned into. Much Music, the Canadian equivalent to MTV does the same thing. There is like what an hour of music videos, then shows afters shows after shows...I loved when they had all day music segments!!

| Only if you turn on MTV at the butt crack of dawn on weekdays can you see videos. But sometimes, I know this is crazy...I have the urge to watch the Today show and catch up on current events instead of music videos.

| I remember! I used to be so hooked on MTV, I used to leave it on all day. I still have some video compilations I made from back then. Now, like iris said, the only time I watch MTV is really early in the morning, when they show music videos. What a concept...music videos on a music video network. It wasn't so bad when they only had their one "game show" in addition to the video programming, but now the balance has been thrown way off kilter with all the lame "reality" programs & stuff. I don't watch any of that.
