Video Killed the Radio Star

So I found this link on apple and the Rhino Records website that plays old videos.
Classic Videos

I was a fanatic as a kid for music videos. I remember being really little and on Sat. mornings(I think), Richard Blade from KROQ had a show on channel 5 and I think it was called Video Beat. They would play Duran Duran, The Cure, Depeche Mode videos, etc, plus interviews too. Then I found out that he was doing a show on KDOC (A Orange County Channel, owned by Pat Boone) called Video One. It was the best and then it turned into Request Video in the late eighties/early ninties. They had Social Distortion play live and the Vandals, too. In the mid to late 90's Request Video signed off and I always wondered what happend to all those videos. Of course, I loved MTV when they played videos. I would come home everyday a 3 and watch total request live and then at like 5 PM Request Video came on. I was in heaven. . . Just Like Heaven!
