[@JINFAMOUS_]

[@pinballdan]

Back when MTV played music. The best music in history.

[@msnewsenior]

More like "I Want My MTV back!!!" LOL

[@davidtaylor328]

A True Classic - indeed !!! 👍🏻🪙👍🏻

[@Ibusers1]

I wish I had lived through the 80's so I could see MTV at the time when it was still awesome.

[@RetroJenny]

@Rixera Society did not suck back then. I grew up in the 80s, and I loved it. We had some great music, movies. We didn't have the technology you youngsters have but we still enjoyed ourselves.

[@davidtaylor9219]

God - I Love this commercial. 👍

[@123axr]

I saw a bumper sticker the other day, it said "It's not that I'm old, your music really does suck". That says it all.

[@Freefalldreams]

Eh, who needs it when we have KZbin?

[@TheSquishey]

Back then, this WAS the youtube.

[@brettcrashman]

the current MTV network should divide into 2 different channels: RTV (reality tv) for all the horrible crap the play now, and MTV for just music videos like the old days! I WANT MY MTV!!!!

[@hijko123]

i want my OLD mtv

[@lilliangriffin9013]

Now in today's era I say in the bottom of my heart,I WANT MY OLD MTV!

[@soko4710]

why couldn't I have been there

[@unrooolie]

I heard a rumor on the internet that MTV used to play music videos. They should put that on myth busters

[@robopecha]

too much is never enough!

[@perpetual61]

I Want My 1980's MTV BACK !

[@sandytinky]

I miss those days SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!! 😢

[@volvo1354]

the show Real World was the beginning of the end for MTV as it slowly devolved into an all reality format with NO music

[@boofdfast]

Yep, 1992 was the slow slide downhill for MTV... The 1st season of the Real World.

[@abagar2000]

[@BigDaddyCooI]

I WANT MY MTV BACK ON THE WAY IS WAS!!

[@Ibusers1]

You may be right! I may be crazy! One of the titles of a classic song that Billy Joel wrote.

[@madonnabediary]

If I bought cable again I would only get it for the old MTV

[@maryjaneskull]

@eggsammichz I was born in 1978 an d I would've love too to be 16 in that year.... but I love also being born in 78... grew up with the 80's & my teenage years with the 90's alternative & grunge..... the 90's MTV commcerial were awsome.... and liquid television..... surreal.... love them!!!!

[@sober4682]

[@C_l19]

thanks for the vid i flipped out MY THREE FAVORITE ARTISTS OF ALL TIME ARE IN THIS VIDEO!!! CYNDI LAUPER BOY GEORGE AND DAVID BOWIE HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!

[@TheREALforeverone]

I WANT MY MTV BACK!!!

[@DeafTuber]

Wow, I remember actually BEGGING my parents to pay for the new MTV channel! Was soooooo fab back then... I rarely if ever tune in nowadays... Where is the MUSIC.

[@MelissaGoodwinShepherd]

I want my MTV too. :(

[@OggyBleacher]

I think this promotion went on from 1982 through 1983 on local channels. These artists are all from 1983. It's possible MTV would occasionally be broadcast on local channels too to tempt you into buying cable. My family got cable tv in 1984 or 1985 and Money For Nothing by Dire Straits came out in 1985 and Sting referenced this promotion "I want my MTV" so I'll bet the promotion was still going on at least in 1984. It's hard to grasp but if you didn't have cable installed to your house then you did not have MTV or more than 11 channels from rabbit ears antennae. Cable was a big deal at that point and MTV was a big factor.

[@GemCan78]

Cyndi Lauper, Boy George, Billy Idol, David Bowie...absolutely EPIC...

[@vroegrijk2]

I want music on my MTV

[@daleclover]

It Was So Great Growing Up In The 80's Back In The Days When Banks Had Money In Them And Cars Had Gas

[@daleclover]

RIP MTV

[@3cheaptrick]

I do agree with you all this photo was taken off my old VHS video tapes in 1984 when we all wanted our MTV before Dire Straits made that one annoying song and look what happen to MTV a year later the five original VJ's left and they were no longer running Music Videos 24 / 7 like they once did before .

[@yeshmayn]

born in 87 got cable in 92, started swearing in 93, i thank you mtv

[@juanuio88]

yo creci con tvcable en los 90's xdios ver tvcable en esa epoca era una bestia tanto buenos show en CARTOON network y nickeloden que la paso a esos canales y MTV una besta en esos tiempos y tambien mi MTV de la adolecncia 2000-2006 genial tantas buenos show para mi la mejor epoca en tv y musca 2004 pero desde el 06 todo ha cambiado no hay nada que ver en tvcable

[@C_l19]

Modern Love - its a great song, my sister's favorite!

[@crimsonwhite1]

when music was good.

[@mikeflbiker]

Oh, the memories.

[@starbond6]

It's MY MTV, and I want it NOOOWW! (jg wentworth)

[@mimzy4690]

thats what MTV should be!! and your right, we need to get back to the basics,

[@panther0567]

Reality TV killed the MTV star. :( Sigh... if only I was born a decade earlier...

[@BrendanMcClelland]

You were LUCKY indeed I wish I was born before the 80s so bad and I realize that I am growing up in the wrong generation with being broke and having a horrible job.

[@funkymonkeysofdoom]

video killed the radio star,video killed the radio star, in my mind and in my car we can't rewind we've gone too far

[@nickyoung630]

If Mtv ever goes back to music (which I pray someone in charge wises up and changes it back) they gotta use this commercial

[@brettsmommy]

I was a teenager in the 80's and the only channel I watched was MTV. I don't know why MTV decided to trash their pure music format from the 80's. Now, it should be called RTV: "Reality TV".

[@danno1974ify]

Looks wholesome compared to today.

[@BoyGeorgeFan83]

lucky...I was born in '98 so all I've got is youtube, and occasionally VH1Classic ("Totally '80s")

[@Nagflar]

That was the time when MTV wasn't shit, and when the music of Rock was good and loved...

[@danthemango]

I miss my mtv

[@X7393]

Hell yeah "I want My MTV!" Now?..Yeah right its a joke! lmao!

[@Ibusers1]

I do agree with you that some of television is going downhill these days. Just sort of like that MTV doesn't play music videos but reality shows these days, other channels like nickelodeon and disney channel are mostly doing the same thing instead of playing cartoons. I totally agree.

[@boofdfast]

Early 1983-84... Back when MTV was "Music Television" and only showed videos. Now, it's just whiny drama, teenybopper "shit TV". So much for getting better with age... Yeah right.

[@dantej.belcher2710]

they are playing them

[@michaeljackson610]

childhood 😢

[@Jotinko]

Cyndi Lauper was smoking hot back in the day!.

[@TheModernGlitch]

[@NorthEast81]

Wow....back in the day when MTV was still cool! Totally sucks now though! :(

[@MichaelAndBeatles]

[@DudaCastro3]

This song is Dancing With Myself

[@epcotman32]

I want my MTV AS it was, no reality bullshit.

[@GabrielSilva-nb2df]

I WANT MY MTV BACK

[@rlessg1000]

VH1 Classic ftw!

[@hilarioph]

Someday NASA will invented this time machine. So we can go back when mtv was born

[@turntablethomas2584]

Cindy Lauper sounds higher pitched talking in this than singing lol

[@Tinmanchromed77]

So we had MTV which totally rocked in the 80s and most of the 90s...Then it got consumed by phucktard shows, so they made MTV 2 "Where the Videos Are" so they said circa 2000. Now you cant even find a video on M2. What the phuck are the executives thinking? I want my MTV back

[@bloodtiefangirl]

used to watch it all the freaking time, and now it's consumed by hidie and spincer, and the hills, and paris hilltions' my new bff! good greif!! it's music television!! not RTV!!!!! ack!!

[@123axr]

It seemed like everyone went all out to make a video back then. VH1 Classic still plays them , but fucken Comcast only offers it with it's premium package.

[@ohnostoltzman2496]

This is back when the "M" in "MTV" meant something. #IWantMyMTV

[@Nagflar]

Can't agree more with it! But I love South Park xD.

[@BrendanMcClelland]

I feel ya. MTV these days is horrid. Nothing but a horrid reality jungle.

[@highlander2973]

Back in the day, MTV wanted to stick it to the establishment. Today, MTV IS the establishment. Sad.

[@tgood4839]

Billy Idol wearing a stars and bars shirt…that wouldn’t fly (pun intended) in today’s culture.

[@lafilledeytb4228]

BOY GEORGE 😍😍😍
