Back when I was young in the 80s (the 1980s – geesh) I quickly became fed up with the mindless pabulum on MTV that was supposed to pass for entertainment.  Sure, there were a few innovative pieces.

For example, who can forget Dire Straits’ “Money for Nothing” debut with the first use of computer graphics!  Well, if you are under 30 you still can’t forget it because you weren’t frickin’ born yet – can’t forget what you never see, see?

No matter, this song is a broad accusation of the entire music video machine with just a dash of conspiracy theory thrown in for good measure.
