120 Minutes

I watch this (dvr it more like) on VH1 Classic and every single time i find myself feeling quite nostalgic about some of the great music of the 80s and 90s. Back when videos were super low budget and corny (or actually, when i actually knew what videos looked like...).

Like right now for example, I just saw a Beastie Boys video and I was like 'oh yeah, i remember why i thought they were pretty great growing up.'

adding to this nostalgia was a recent screening in my living room of the real world season 1 new york. wow, the premise has changed a lot. and in the pilot episode this like hair metal guy was arguing with this rapper because the rapper was calling out the hair metal guy on his stuff being mainstream, too commercial, about nothing...while rap was the freshest more real musical art form. i dont know. i was a kid in 1991, but did it feel like that?

im feeling a little old and crusty since im weary about new bands or too indifferent to search. blah.

oh man, as soon as hit quick reply Love Song by the cure came on. omg robert smith in some sort of cave...

well this 120 minutes is more like just two hours of old videos that would be played on the program. no hosts or guests i think sybsyb told me he had some of the original ones taped. im very jealous. i want to see them.

i wish the 120 minutes they showed on VH1 classic was the actual MTV show. but i can't complain. it's the best two hours of music videos on any of the channels. they always throw in something really obscure that i haven't heard in years.

omg you've brought back memories. my dad and i would watch night flight every friday night when i was a kid. and 120 min's the show was awesome. i might be in the minority here but i also adored alternative nation with kennedy. and early real world is 30498958 times better than the new ones. i can't even bring myself to watch them because it feels so fucking frat house.

Ours is different Europa, its all the good left of field stuff thats up and coming and few classics thrown for good measure. Sometimes they have themed shows like 120 metal minutes or Electronica pioneers (on which they showed a Can track) or maybe its the same but the U.S. discontinued the series long ago....

Night Flight was the best. It had a bit of everything--music, movies, corny old PSAs--you name it.
