Drowning, Not New Waving

My freshly 13-year-old daughter posted the following bulletin on MySpace recently about the Buggles' "Video Killed the Radio Star." Oh, these children of the new millennium!

so last night
i stumbled upon this video
and i was amazed.
i showed it to my mother,
and of course she'd seen it a million times
(it was the first video on mtv, after all)
and told me
"you think thats amazing, but theres a whole DECADE of that."

i found that kinda funny,
considering how true it was.
so for the next month or two
i'm going to be constantly posting 80s music videos.
i wish i had been alive during th 80s..
