Morbid Fascination

As if living through the eighties once wasn’t bad enough. I found a channel on the digital cable channel line up that I swear wasn’t there before, VH1 Classics. And like our natural reaction to a car wreck on the highway, I slowed my channel surfing to watch. What was with the little aerobic instructor headbands on guys. Rod Stewart was very feminine back then. Yikes, who dresses Stevie Wonder, a pink v-necked cashmere sweater!?! The last video I watched on the channel before I sped away was by a group called Scandal with Patty Smyth singing, appropriately entitled “Goodbye To You.”

Started down, still down.

    The 80’s look pretty damn good and mild compared to the “rap crap”, body piercing. tatoo’s not too mention lack of talent. I actually told my husband about a month ago…”Wonder why on one has thought of a channel devoted to “oldie music videos?” I’m such a visionary!

  2. The post was half tongue in check, I was (still am) a big fan of the 80’s New Wave music. But when look back at the clothing, I can’t help but say, “What were we thinking.”

    I’d say you should contact a lawyer about VH1 stealing your idea, but according to their web site VH1 Classics was launched in May of 2000.
