Frank I had no idea until today that you directed this...bravo Maestro!

3:15 you know news about something serious is about to break.

Tbis is cool😊😊😊😊

Univision, uninovelas, unimas, unideportes and uninoticias!? Ugh.

When fellow NBCUniversal property Access Hollywood covered this, they said it was like New York’s version of the Oscars (nowadays, it’s the annual Met Gala). But I’m sure SNL’s 50th will be even bigger!

Ha. This aged very poorly. Uni isn’t number one anymore.

14:43: WSB reporter: "But maybe it's a topic that they need to be upset about." Koppel: "That's why we, uh, that's why we try to interest them in the subject, but the decision has to be theirs, not mine." That's what made Ted Koppel great on Nightline-- he realized that not everyone would be interested in every single thing under the sun the show did (unlike today's political channels, where they'll try to force you to be interested, come heck or high water, by hook or by crook).

Don't tell Morricone.

Nice band. We all recognize that John is the master of movie and video music. You do wonder what he might have produced if he went the classical route instead.

6:12 Before When BET & MTV Are Part of the Viacom Family Since the Early 2000s

I wish I have had musicvideos 24h /day in GDR ;-)

Excellent

Wow has Nina Blackwood's voice changed.... She was incredible VJ for MTV...

MTV network appealed to the Gen-X audiences worldwide. The youth of the 80's have two-sided options whether playing music in their stereo consoles, Walkmans, analog radios and Television screens. Michael Jackson, Duran Duran, and Van Halen were playing in heavy rotation in '84 and please I was 4 years old when I got introduced to cable tv watching MTV with my mother.

MTV was in our house from at least 1983. At least that's the earliest I can remember. I was a little one. I remember going to an uncle's wedding and we met up and the bride's parent's house out of town. I distinctly remember MTV and Panama by Van Halen on a video countdown on the console. This was 1984 OF COURSE. But damn if MTV didn't make an impression on me almost from the birth...and for the next 20 years. I love it and miss it and think about it and watch pieces of it all the time on RUclips, but as a network on television or online, it's definitely dead now. Not even close to what it was. MTV is gone. RIP It was fun. It was important. Watch the fragments of its previous greatness from the beginning until right around 2000 before it was apparently murdered and replaced with a turd.

I am 44 now. I wish i was 44 in 1983

"MTV killed the music scene"..joey ramone

June 27, 1984

In the late 60’s and early 70’s we had Midnight Special… it was great!!!!

Nina Blackwood is still going strong, yet she sounds like she has been smoking for 50 years. Definitely will make the bass work overtime in your speakers...

When MTV actually played music!

Lol mtv... I lived in jupiter Florida we didnt have cable there. Id drive to friends in miami just to sit abd watch the buggles i over and over again. Silly things we did.

Do you happen to know, sir, if the recording of the studio session was done in any better resolution than NTSC, and if that material still exists anywhere? Did they only rerecord the first movement? Or the entire 9 minute suite?

I want my MTV

The Making of ABC News Nightline 1981, not 1983

One of my favorite aspects of my High School era. Class of 83

I don't know how but mybast friend swears to God that he was watching TV the day and out of the blue it first aired about noon one day.. and the first video, video killed the Radio Star... The future from the past now, I'm 61 and I can't believe that time is gone.

40 years ago...WOW!!! The birth of the 'music video'...

Thanks so much for the upload! Does anyone know the name of the song at 4:44?

They should have stuck with the music that brought them

Nina Blackwood = Eye Candy

Sheryl Lee Ralph before she was famous lol

That Martin Riley vid was one of my favs. Nina Blackwood was FAF

I was so young and dumb, I remember thinking I could just go out and buy the official VHS tapes of whatever videos were being played on MTV. I was so disappointed to find out that that wasn't how it actually worked. 😏

"They decided that the audience they want to reach was a young, White audience that didn't have any interest in R&B or soul or urban contemporary, whatever you want to call it. I think they may have made a mistake" <--- brought to you by the president of Black Entertainment Television. Nice to see the chosenite media was trolling us even back then. And as for Rick James, he was a trashy junkie whose music videos should have been quarantined.

This documentary gives a behind-the-scenes look at the making of ABC's "Nightline" in 1983. "Nightline" is a late night news program hosted by Ted Koppel from 1980 to 2005. The documentary includes interviews with Koppel and other staff members who worked on the show. It also features a look at the production process, from the initial story meetings to the final editing of the program. This fascinating look back at one of television's most iconic news programs is a must-see for any fan of journalism or history.👍

I Could have been a Vj on MTV in 1987 and decided not to do it.

7:10 "Billy Jean"

That was Alex's theme from our QVC Adventure because on Class of 96 was the same music from every show and movies for Megan Ward and we deliver it.

Ashame that they ruined MTV.

If not mistaking💗80s _MTV_ was the🎵 Most watched Tv Channel in _USA_🇺🇲

I think its funny that all 3 titles for the videos that they showed the were incorrect in someway. Martin "Bailey" instead of Briley. They called "Give it to Me "Funky Stuff" and "Billy" Jean instead of Billie Jean. My music OCD was going haywire.

There's nothing that compares the MTV 👍👍👍

I was in college when this aired, MTV went down the crapper when they started playing Billie Jean 50 times a day, Prince, Madonna and Cyndi Lauper were all crap too. MTV was quite lame when it first came on because they were playing garbage like Pat Benetar, Journey, Tom Petty and Joan Jett. MTV peaked out in popularity and relevance when they moved towards a more “modern rock” format. Heaven 17, ABC, New Order, Depeche Mode, Level 42, Echo and the Bunnymen, Duran Duran, Berlin, the Thompson Twins and Culture Club. They were playing the right music at the right time.

4:50

RIP MTV.

...and then MTV turned to sh**.

I wish I can go back 40 years and live it all over again. This time as a middle aged wise old man.
