The world is burning & black but I discovered MTV Classic on my tv and just watched Bush, Weezer, & Pixies music videos back to back and it’s so right.

OMG NOW THEY’RE PLAYING TORI AMOS

NINE INCH NAILS!!!!!!

How did they not break their necks head banging? Seriously.

Now “Shadow of the Day”. Not my thing but sad. Surprisingly soft-political music video. Strong ACAB vibes. Would believe if this was footage from the summer.

Bowie!!! What IS this channel???

I guess I’m just going to live tweet MTV Classic tonight? I’ve spent my time doing far more pointless things.

I forgot this song existed. “This is How You Remind Me” with a Rachel Lee Cook lookalike in the crowd as the love interest? Quite a volatile relationship tho. Choice lyric: “It’s not like you to say sorry.” Sorry Nickelback, that’s a red flag. (Also you suck.)

Husker Du? Okay. I don’t know if I’ve ever heard this song in my life. Very noisey, so much fuzzing. Definite 80’s home movie vibes. Shout out to Minneapolis and someone’s grandma?

It’s times like these when I wish I could knit or something, so this could be productive. Look, cats, I’m watching old music videos and making a **SCARF**.

Oh wow FLAGPOLE SITTA. That’s a fucking throwback. I may know all of the words to this, which I only learned to impress dudes. Anything you can do I can do better was my much my MO. Was also briefly very good at chugging a beer.

It’s not even that great of a song? It’s ok? The suburbs are weird man. Why was knowing these lyrics impressive? Very confuzzled over here, 20+ years later.

Biggest drawback: there’s like a LOT of commercials, like every couple videos. Harrumph.

Changing my mind about scarf-making; my worth is not determined by my productivity. I’m already producing tweets so.

Fall Out Boy? Ugh. Wasn’t he married to Ashley Simpson. Maybe the only smart thing about him. I am firmly pro-Jessica and Ashley. Come at me.

Ok this song is catchy. I’ll admit it, I’m not too proud. What are the lyrics? “#1 in a bullet, a loaded gun complex, cock it and pull it”? Very Chekhov of you, Pete Wentz.

This next one better be great.

Eh. It’s fine. I missed the little thing that says who the band/song is and I think I vaguely recognize it? Sad grunge-y. White dude with very long curly hair. Something about being hungry? I did not have this album.

One of the guys looks/sounds vaguely like Eddie Vedder? The one from that super intense band with the music video with the school shooting? Eddie Vedder right? Lots of dried out field / woods shots.

Obviously one of my rules here is no googling. Just digging up what’s left from my 36-year-old mind.
