I was flipping through the channels the other day, and lo'
and behold, they were playing a modified version of cliffs
while they were telling you about the 10 pieces of shit
spot.

MTV US is stuck playing utter shit 24/7. Although for only
about 1 hour in the day they're actually playing MUSIC
instead of the 'Real World'.

I watch MTV2 more, MTV in the night time can be quite funky,
but in the day it's bombarded with Britney!!!

hehe

Bombarded With Britney ! That sounds cool !

If you stay up past midnight, you can watch 2 ecletic, which
is ok, but there is a lot of coffee table shit as well.

The eyen vid is crap! I song sounds flat, and the video is
as boring as hell. At least they play some cornelius.

What i hate is why we have to stay up to the wee hours to
see anything half decent? Its shit really.

They play some Cornelius? At least they have some
intelligence. I've still only seen Come to Daddy played ONCE
on MTV. No Windowlicker or Donkey Rhubarb =[

I've seen ageopolis (or however you spell it).

They played the new one, point of view point, which is a
classy vid. Very much so.

Viva Zwei(german) is by far the best music channel I know of
- Ive seen all the RDJ videos there, every sonday and
thursday they had a show with good videos and one time it
was a portrait of RDJ, sadly the channel dosn't exit no more

MTV playing Aphex? well, it was like that a few years ago.
now it's censored up the ass and overrun by mainstream.

oh yeah..ive noticed that...the music they play on their
little advertisements does sound a lot like the voice from
cliffs...

are you talking about mtv2 or regular mtv?
sometimes if you can stay up late enough..mtv2 plays aphex
on that "dance" show they have on friday nights..er saturday
mornings
a couple weeks ago they even played the video for 'on'...but
you have to sit through 4 hours of crappy dance videos...90%
of which are played on a weekly basis...a few gems here and
there however...which is more than i can say about regular
mtv..or mtv2 during the rest of the week for that matter

..actually, mtv2 used to be quite cool...up until a little
over a year ago..when they "relaunched" for cable...since
then its only gone downhill...very fast...just a few months
ago..they had amp on at a reasonable hour...now they changed
the name and moved it to the wee hours of the morning..much
like regular mtv did a few years ago..
i bet within a year or two mtv2 will only be used to show
repeats of mtv shows..

ah well...just one more reason not to watch tv..

Cribs on MTV is good. Especially all those hip hop ones
which the owners can barely afford (thanks for the info
arch, wherever you are).

I gave up on the US MTV a long time ago, but when i visited
Germany a couple of years ago I watched Viva and MTV Germany
(Europe?) and I couldn't believe there was actually good
music being played on mtv somewhere in the world. Saw lots
of techno videos.

I never saw any of the aphex videos on MTV, and I used to
watch alot of those programs. One of the first times I
heard Aphex was actually on CKY2K, when they use Come to
Daddy as background music while they do some crazy shit.

They used to have this show on US MTV called "12 angry
viewers" where a panel of judges would watch videos, and the
ones that they liked would be put into heavy rotation.
They all liked come to daddy, too bad that show isn't around
still. They picked some good videos.

yeah, xlr..12 angry viewers played some cool stuff..i think
thats where i first saw aphex actually...remember the '12
angry parents' special? heheh..they played come to daddy on
that one too..didnt get as positive of a response
however...shocked and horrified was more like it...
