chron.com — Music videos — remember them? Those tiny movies set to music that once dominated the programming at MTV and VH1? A quarter-century after their birth, it's hard to remember that videos once seemed to herald the end of audio-only music consumption.

Never liked music videos. While everyone else was glued to a tv set with linear programming, I was busy with my atari 2600 playing games with somewhat less linear gameplay, definitely more interactive.

from Rule Number 4: ""They [backup dancers] are all unionized now. Even the crews are unionized."Those girls that shake their butts around in every rap video have a union? Why hasn't anybody told me about this before? What are their chapter meetings like? There is so much I don't know about the world.

When I was young I loved watching music videos. But during the years mtv germany and viva and how they are called here in europe, the channels and the videos became worse. Today you'll wait the whole day to see a bad video. They only show stupid games, talk shows and soaps...urrrg.So first of all you need intelligent people before you can make a good video or a good music tv show

Was there ever doubt that this was true? I mean look at the OK GO video clip - that went massively massive. Would it have done so without the video clip? Maybe in those circumstances the video clip is more of the attraction than the music itself starting off.~Ants.<a class="user" href="http://www.richardbeeston.com/music.php">http://www.richardbeeston.com/music.php</a>
