Video Killed the Radio Star
Available on Prime Video
The Buggles' music video for the song "Video Killed the Radio Star" ushered in the medium's existence as it was the first music video to be played on MTV upon the cable network's launch on Aug. 1, 1981. So it's an appropriate song to lend its title to a program that explores some of the most memorable of its kind. The featured artists discuss the creation of the memorable productions, including the inspiration for them and anecdotes from the filming process. Episodes include Sting discussing "Every Breath You Take" and guitarist Richie Sambora talking about Bon Jovi's videos.
