MTV videos that made the song a hit ('80's style)
After reading Jefslat's thread on the Buggles I started to think about tunes that would never had made it on radio if it wasn't for MTV. The first song to come to mind (other than "Video killed the radio star") was Wall of Voodoo's "Mexican radio" and then I thought of Devo and "Whip it". Any thoughts on this deep subject?
