Was watching Tv tonight, and was shocked to see two videos i hadn't seen since the 80s. Cyndi Lauper's Good enough Goonies theme, and Lovia newton John's twist of Fate. I don't recall seeing them since they came out.

Other video that would be nice to see again

The Fall-Rowche Rumble
Lords of the New Church-Open your eyes
OMD-Electricity
Martika-I love you more than you know
Martika-Love thy will be done

I think that last one came from the 1991 album "Martika's Kitchen", so it doesn't count as an 80s video.

Anyway, there are plenty of videos I would love to see again and I would've done so if that (bleep) from the Freestyle Music Videos website hadn't stiffed me.

I spent 600 dollars on a 250 music video compilation last November and now here we are and I still haven't gotten the videos.

I don't think I ever will, though. I found an auction website (not eBay) where the website's owner was selling a huge batch of tapes and DVDs with rare videos for 3000 dollars.

That owner's a (bleep)ing (bleep).

Sincerely,

John Kilduff

Woah, you spent $600 for videos? That's really a shame, not even getting them. I hope e-bay kicks that loser off for good. I bought a video compilation on e-bay once, but I received it. It's nice to get a batch of video's with not well known artists, because they offer a bunch of surprises. As for Martika, I reckoned it might have been a 90's song. Ooops. There are a few mixed DVD 80's compilations, but they they are few and far between, and most of them are really popular, frequently seen videos.

Some others I would like to see are:

MC Shan-The Bridge
Strawberry Switchblade-Since Yesterday.

One that I would like to see:

"Give It Up" (1983) by KC (of Sunshine Band fame)

According to KC's website, the video is not available anywhere, probably for licensing rights reasons. He said that he would love to have it released to the public, but it's really out of hands, for legal reasons.

That's interesting, didn't think KC made 80's videos. I seriously wonder how many more lost videos are out there. There's some obscure alternative groups from the 80's who I wonder if they made videos like Medium Medium, Wild Swans, the Telescopes and Danse Society.

"Boys Boys Boys" by Sabrina.

Sabrina was an Italian "singer", and the only reason I want to see the clip again is because she spends 3 and a half minutes jumping up and down in a swimming pool while fruitlessly attempting to stop her bikini top from falling down.

I want to see Herb Alpert's Diamonds are a Girls best friend featuring Janet Jackson. Some Pebbles videos would be nice too.

Riptide,

Cyndi Lauper's Goonies R Good Enough video is on The Goonies DVD under the special features. Didn't know that when I bought the DVD. A pleasant suprise!
