Wow, I had completely forgotten about Martha Quinn! I don't remember the very first video I saw but the earliest ones I do remember were...
Bow Wow Wow - "I Want Candy"
Cyndi Lauper - "Girls Just Want To Have Fun"
Devo - "Whip It"
I don't know what year "Relax" by Frankie Goes to Hollywood came out but I recall being very disappointed in the video. It took a while before really good ones came out. Peter Gabriel "Sledge Hammer" and A-Ha "Take On Me".

They've recently announced that "120 Minutes," the Sunday night indie rock show, will be back--this time on MTV2.

It went downhill when he was on, but I still miss getting to see new music videos. I think this will be a mix of throwbacks and new stuff. It's a moot point for me, anyway, since I don't have cable.

I think this was 1985 (was out of college by then) There was more than one Relax video. I recall seeing the R-rated video at one point and it was much different than the PG-rated video that MTV showed. Today, it would be shown on TV. How times have changed. It might be on You Tube by now.

The first video I remember seeing on MTV was All She Wants to do is Dance.
Martha, Nina, and JJ are all deejays on XM's 80s on 8. Love listening to them!

I didn't know about the R-rated version. Thanks for telling me! Just watched it on You Tube. It was, um...interesting. And you're right; they'd have no problem showing that version on tv today.

I dont recall watching MTV prior to '86 or '87 (aka 3rd grade).

Shoot, I still can't watch it after dark. I pwn at the MJE though. I've been dancing this routine since I was born. 
Happy 30th, MTV!
