Thriller. The debut was a pretty big event. Friend's mom let him have a bunch of us over for pizza and spending the night. Guess that was 82 or 83.

In the 80s I thought the music sucked but in hindsight looking back on it the music was actually pretty damn good.

Money for Nothing is the first one I vividly remember. Not sure the year.

Money for nothing was one of the first really big “technological“ videos that I remember seeing

My first MTV memory was visiting my cousins with better cable in summer ‘83 and watching the Burning Down the House vid.

Quiet Riot's MTV debut of "Cum On Feel The Noize," so that would be 1983.

I went to a Quiet Riot concert in 1983 at the Pete Maravich assembly center and it was a shite show Kevin Dubrow just about fell completely off stage

I want Candy - Bow Wow Wow is one that sticks in my mind.

I’m sure there are others, but the one I remember the most was my babysitter and her friend had MTV on playing Color Me Badd’s “I wanna sex you up”

Sunday Bloody Sunday, probably 83
Posted on 4/9/18 at 10:08 pm to papasmurf1269
I don't know which one I saw first but the first ones I remember really liking were Van Halen-Jump and Panama

Burning Up by Madonna. I remember thinking, no one is gonna buy that shite.
