Neat title eh?? http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif
I'm wanting to know,for the fun of it,what (if you can recall) was the very 1st music video you ever saw? Now,it doesn't really have to be "that" exact but at least as far as you know.
The first one I ever saw was Cheap Trick's,"The Dream Police",in early 1980.
It was (quite unfortunatley) presented on the incredibly bad variety show,"Pink Lady and Jeff"!!!! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/eek.gif http://www.corfid.com/ubb/eek.gif
Those who may recall,Pink Lady were a female Japanese music duo that spoke little english (and sang just as well). They had one hit here called,"Kiss In The Dark". Jeff was simply a lame comedian.
Anyhow,on one outing they said their special music guest was Cheap Trick and instead of playing "live" the video for Dream Police was played instead! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/rolleyes.gif
Having never seen a music video (and that term wasn't even born yet)I couldn't figure out what in the world I was seeing! All I recall of it was some stop action motion of Robin Zander in a police line-up. I'd say what a gyp but then again,who besides maybe other kids,would have been watching anyway?
It's been me,Aurevoir! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/cool.gif
