Video Killed the Radio Star, But Who Killed Videos?

every afternoon. Why? To watch Total Request Live of course!

It was the highlight of my day. The show allowed me to catch up on all my favorite music videos and even get to see my favorite celebrities live on television. Then the next day my friends and I would get together to gossip about who should have been number one on the countdown, along with continuing our epic discussion on who was better: The Backstreet Boys or Nsync. We even would leave school early (don't tell my mother!) to stand outside MTV studios just to have our faces on television. But those days are gone.

After the end of TRL in 2008, there seems to be a lack of a source for an update on what videos are in or not.

MTV barely plays any videos anymore so if you want to catch any music videos on television you have to be up super early or extremely late. Times have truly changed.

Now if someone really wants to see a music video they just type the name of the artist in YouTube and there it is. Even though watching videos on the internet can be a bit more convenient, there isn't the same thrill as running home to watch the premiere of a new video on MTV. It is not the same and sadly I doubt if things will go back to the way it use to be.

I want MTV to go back to what its name stood for: Music Television. Now who is going to resurrect videos?
