I think everyone knows that the first video shown on MTV on August 1, 1981 was Video Killed the Radio Star. In Canada, no one could get MTV, so we didn't see this momentous event in the great white north. As it turns out, video did not kill the radio star; corporate radio killed the radio star, and then the internet killed the video star, turning MTV and Muchmusic into generic piles of garbage. Someone should write a song about that.
