What is the first music video

You remember seeing?

Mine was the one for Sledge-hammer by Peter Gabriel. I was at my grandma's house. Even when I hear the song today, I see the video playing in my head! I don't know why it made such an impression on me.

Re: What is the first music video

'Panama' by Van Halen!

Oh, and I didn't see it on MTV - I saw it one of those UHF channels!

My parents didn't want to get cable. I used to watch Friday Night Videos just so I could see music videos and not feel like a total dork 'cause I was like the only kid in school who didn't have cable!

Re: What is the first music video

It was definitely Video Killed the Radio Star but I remember it being summer ?? maybe it was late august or early Sept. I remember all my friends in the neighborhood were so psyched - some of them didnt have cable so we all watched in my house. We always had cable, I remember back then we had that old brown remote control box with the big buttons on it and it had a wire that led to the TV. I LOVED MTV!!! I was about 9 or 10 when it debuted.

Another video that reminds me of that time was Golden Earring - Shoot that Poison Arrow or was it Twilight Zone??

Re: What is the first music video

MTV debuted on August 1st, 1981. There's a little bit of trivia for you.

Hmmm, first video I remember?

That's a TOUGH question, because I was about a year old when MTV debuted - it was always a part of my life.

I'm going to GUESS Billie Jean by Michael Jackson.

Does anyone remember Nick Rocks on Nickelodeon?! That was all I was allowed to watch for the longest time - NO MTV, unless while channel surfing I saw a video that I had seen on Nick Rocks.

That Nick Rocks excuse got me a LOT of extra video time that I shouldn't have gotten.

Re: What is the first music video

See I thought it was summer.....I totally remember it being hot out and not in school.

What about Dance Party USA - anyone watch that in the 80s - it was on USA network I think. Kelly Ripa was a dancer on it!

That was DEFINITELY the first video I saw also .. I thought it was sooooo diiiirty

then I think Cyndi Lauper and some Madonna videos were the next ones I clearly recall. Madonna's 'borderline' to be exact, where I thought it was soo risque that she was showing her BELLY ! (O M G !! ) LOLOLOL
