happy text length cut ^___^ 

@JulieSqveakaroo Haha, I have HUGE nostalgia for that video, and seeing it namechecked by a friend did really make me smile just now. Thanks, roo. <3

Iiiincidentally, have you ever seen the old MTV Weird Al specials, and if not and you're interested... got a way for me to share some really big files? (I can set up Dropbox again, there was a reason I stopped using it but it's been so long I can't recall what it was...)

That's where I saw this originally. Unsurprisingly, Weird Al is a REALLY REALLY GOOD VJ. Most of his picks aren't even "comedy music," just pop songs with engagingly weird videos...

@zebratron2084 I didn't get to see them in the first incarnation, because we didn't have cable (and I got a window to the outside world) until the very late 80s/early 90s.

I have seen them, and I agree, AlTv was amazing!

I did not see the video for this Ramones song until like 20 years after the fact, and until then, I had no idea the song had the sarcasm/cynicism aspect.
