Yep, I remember it and Sledgehammer so vividly as a child. Think Thriller has to be up there too along with them.[/rquote]
I remember sitting up until after 12 to watch thriller on MTVUS, the presenter was Vincent Hanley, who died years later of AIDS. Brilliant show and without it I would never had heard any american music! [/rquote]
That A-ha video was so effective and it still holds up today. I found it quite sad and moving as a kid lol. Trying to think of other old classic ones.[/rquote]
At the time I thought what utter rubbish. Why all the cr*p drawings with pencils?
I still think that to be honest.[/rquote]
It was great. So creative and one that I always remember from childhood.[/rquote]
