Yeah she rocks and sadly I was there at the beginning.  Hers was one of the first cassette tapes I bought way back in the day!

Not my style personally but they were huge hits. Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly wrote True Colors and then submitted it to Cyndi Lauper to perform it so she didn't actually "make" that one. She also had some help writing Time after time.

Wasn't the Real Life the first reality show on MTV? I remember the downfall if only barely.

Then there were shows like the yo mama contest or whatever and NEXT and all that garbage.

I dunno but the first show on MTV that wasn't showing music videos was Remote Control.

Having Real World on once in a while didn't bother anyone, since Reality TV wasn't the norm back then. Beavis and Butthead belonged to MTV, so not all non-music programming on MTV was "that of the devil". But now it's all Brooke knows best, Runs house, Super sweet jailbait, The Hills (wtf is this shit), Made, Room Raiders, a Shot of love with asian bisexual slut, From G's to Gents.

Who misses having MTV on in the background with music videos playing? Music videos which weren't a rotation of ten of which two were Lady Gaga, three featuring Jay-Z and/or Beyoncé and the rest Lil' Wayne? I mean a variety of music.

I remember making a thread about this.. http://forums.bf2s.com/viewtopic.php?id=86127

On topic: Yeah, Cyndi Lauper was the shit back then.

My state was founded by Batman. Your opinion is invalid.
we're doomed.. mtv's constant run of tv reality shows and clear channel owning the majority of radio stations.
