pippy Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 This came out when I was a photography student and it grabbed my attention because of the technical nature of the shoot...................... No kidding! The vid was shot by one of our legendary fashion photographers, Terence Donovan! Great Song too. Philip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabs Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 The first ever video played on MTV Europe :) And theres just so so many videos I love.....

milod Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Well... Here I go showing my age. There actually were lotza pre-television "videos" that went up on movie screens almost concurrently with other "talkies." This is the type of "movie short" I easily recall from going to Saturday afternoon kids' matinee movies from around 1950-57 when I considered myself too "grown up" for the kiddie shows that cost a dime - and your two-bit piece got you enough candy to gag yourself. This type of short would come after the cartoons and sometimes before the short "funnies" before the real movies like Johnny Weismuller's "Tarzan" series. This is a movie cut, but it's pretty much what a lotta those would be like. And it's what made me want to play music some 60 and more years ago. I started going to 'em before television was available where I lived. And when it was sort of available in a snowy black and white... yuck, indoors in summertime? m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 ...to me the girls made that video... IMO it was the make-up; specifically the very hi-gloss lippy and that heavy eye-stuff-mascara-shady-eye-hole-thing-that-girls-do. And I still say it's a great song regardless. I'd really like to play that some day. Rabs, Farns and Flight take note. Performances dependent I'll allocate guitars and/or skirts accordingly. P.

saturn Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 There were so many videos I used to like, it's hard to chose. Many of the videos I liked weren't even songs that I would normally chose to listen to. This one comes to mind as a great song and video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pkVLqSaahk After watching this band in the local bars for years, it was cool to suddenly see them all over MTV with this video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimi Mac Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 The first ever video played on MTV Europe :) Dire Straits "Money For Nuthin'" And theres just so so many videos I love..... This song has a great video that I think still looks good today, very clever (for its day) Aha "Take On Me" Wow Rabs, not much different across the pond, those two immediately came to mind for me! They were literally 2 of my 3 choices... Along with this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQwqSrPdwjQ Purely for music/guitar virtuosity reasons... And probably anything with Nancy Wilson of Heart in it with her 80's hair... Dayum!!! Live shows had much more effect on me than anything on TV in video forms. I saw this guy live; Li'l Ed Williams and The Blues Imperials. He (and his "little" brother; the bassist) are nephews of Blues legend JB Hutto... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ipWtY-LSmQ Changed my life!!!
