In honor of the 43rd anniversary of MTV, these are the 51 best videos from MTV's early days. This blog has extended from my original intent. From only 51 songs to who knows how many songs? From videos from the late 70s to 1989 now from any notable video since music videos were made.
The first video played on MTV. 1) The Buggles "Video Killed The Radio Star":
2) Queen "Bohemian Rhapsody":
3) Madness "One Step Beyond":
4) Paul Hardcastle "19":
5) Abba "Dancing Queen":
6) Bonnie Tyler "Total Eclipse of the Heart":
7) Madonna "Like A Prayer":
In my mind this is the most creative and imaginative video of all-time. It also helps that the song is great. 8) a-ha "Take On Me":
9) Procol Harum "A Whiter Shade of Pale":
10) The Monkees "Daydream Believer":
11) Michael Jackson "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough":
12) J. Geils Band "Love Stinks":
13) Abba "Mamma Mia":
14) Nancy Sinatra "These Boots Are Made For Walkin'":
15) Phil Collins "In The Air Tonight":
16) Blotto "I Wanna Be A Lifeguard":
17) Ram Jam "Black Betty":
