so yesterday was the 40th anniversary of MTV and popheads shared a link of the[first 4 hours of footage](https://archive.org/details/1981.08.01_MTV_First_Four_Hours_Remastered_12am_Saturday_August_1st_1981/1981.08.01+-+MTV+First+Four+Hours+Remastered+-+01+-+Original+Broadcast+-+12am+Saturday+August+1st%2C+1981.mpg). I flipped through the first hour or so. Man, so interesting [MTV first day](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6muLzOihmV0nrOjBlQ8wx8?si=14e4d9e1edbb4ca8) could be a wild rate and also a difficult one, at least for me since some of this MOR rock songs aren't my bag. Ready to lose my (non-existent) indie cred, apologies to Bowie, Kate Bush and The Who; I would very likely give my 11 to In the Air Tonight
