    It was a great time. It was probably around 1983 until we finally got cable.
    We still had the wired remote haha!
    The first video I ever saw was Duran Duran "hungry like the wolf" 😁
    I eventually saw them at a free concert in 2000 and was very impressed. They gave an amazing show.
    Coming back en 2026-Viva Venezuela!

        I’m probably thinking that the videos I just posted were some of the first played on Canada’s version of MTV called MuchMusic.

          MTV gave the Canadian acts much airplay…but in 1981, it was probably Loverboy that was getting airtime.
          The vids you posted came a year or two later.
          Except for 'Gloria', which most likely never got shown on MTV…that was probably a bit too Pop-ish for their Rock and alternative Rock format.
          They
          did
          show 'Self-Control' though.
          U2's 'Gloria' was more MTV's style.
          Eurhythmics in 1981 would be seen this way -
          And as the original band members of The Tourists
          Are you okay?

                    I don't know why, but I was initially thinking that MTV first came in the early 90s.
                    I stopped watching around the early to mid 00s.
