I Ran.

June 8, 2009

Today, I have to give thanks to Kate Gosselin.  I have to say thanks  for taking me back.   And I have to say thanks for putting this song in my head .  And I have to say thanks for reminding me of one of the greatest songs of its era.  I actually saw the Flock Of Seagulls in 1995 as the final act of a three day music festival in the Southeast. There they were, in a tiny club on the corner packed to the gills with people at one in the morning amidst some of the biggest music stages I’ve seen in my life.  I’m not hating on Kate.  Just feeling nostalgic and awfully grateful.

    I remember when MTV came out — before that it was Friday Night Videos, and my stepbrother and I would stay up til midnight to see if anything we wanted to hear would come on. Good times…. sigh.

    I remember when Riki Rachtman hosted headbanger’s ball… not Daisy of Love. I remember planning my day around a world premiere video. I remember having my mind blown by the “Money for Nothing” video. I remember doing a paper on MTV in 10th grade.

    Nowadays, I get a little giddy when I turn it on in the morning and they are actually playing music videos.
