as im randomly flipping through the channels, and come across the joke that MTV now is, and "TRL"
I think to myself "god damn i would love to see come to daddy or windowlicker on there"
and laugh at all the kiddies who are like " what the hell is this shit"
that got me thinking.
what if we picked a date, like, in a month, told everyone, i mean EVERYONE,, in the US etc,,, to call in on that date, and vote for an aphex video?
Would that not fOOGIN OWN,
just for the hell of it just to see what all those lil kiddies think.

haha. i'd do it. I doubt it'd work though. I think you have to vote on one of a list of videos that are current...it'd be filled w/ boyband crap.

he wouldn't
and its not like i WANT him to be all over MTV
i think it would just be funny
99% of the ppl watching MTV would be like "WHTA.....THE......HELL"
why a very select few would be laughin inside.

yeah it is, ubik, about two years ago, an email went around telling everybody to vote for new kids on the block "hangin tough", and people did it, and the next day, out of fucking nowhere, it was at number 2, i remember, david holmes (no not the dj) was hosting, and he said "where the hell did this come from?" so, in conclusion, yes, its not just popularity, its actually based on the number of votes
dont do it for aphex though, windowlicker and come to daddy are both banned on mtv
you should do it for come on my selector, its not banned anyway, it would suck, because it would get a few borderline wiggers or wiggettes into windowlicker, and come to daddy, and they'd walk around saying "i love apex twins!"
itd suck trust me

There is an edited version of the CTD video. During the screaming part, instead of the scary demon man, it just shows more of the bluish TV guy screaming, then it cuts back to the original version w/ that shot of the Thamesmead apartment towers.

I've been thinking recently about calling in to a local radiostation sometime and just requesting some BoC... I honestly believe that if they were played on the radio, and people heard them, they'd be super popular... but hey, I guess I am a bit biased in my view... :)

I don't think they'd be super popular, but I DO think people would like them... it's inoffensive music... you play Omjiyaga Switch on the radio, people will scream and run away. BOC isn't as nutty, but they're not commercial enough to be SUPER popular... but I think people would hear them, think ''this is cool'', and forget about them.
Because people are fucking morons!

after the new kids on the block thing, some one tried to do it with vanilla ice. but it didn't show up on the top 10... they called and some representative from mtv told them that it is pretty much rigged as far as the outcome is.

i have seen these videos on MTV: Come to Daddy Window licker Ventolin On
but it was ages ago, probably 1996/1997 on that show called AMP.
Ventolin was the real trip though.. i can't imagine who thought it would be a good idea to put that on amongst the likes of sun ra and daft punk. but i guarantee most of the people who were watching changed the channel.

Oh and yeah about the video, I really doubt On would be banned unless MTV find sand offensive. If it isn't rigged On would be a nice choice for "TRL". Though we dont get that out here. Our request show on MTV is Most Wanted. Hmmm... I think I'll email them to play On!

Has anyone seen the vid for ageispolis? I saw it on mtv2 once, and it was amazing. I just randomly turned it on and it started right in front of me. Put a huge smile on my face :)
I think that record companies have more influence over what is played on TRL than the viewers. Sad really, but thats the state of music at the moment.

trl is a terrible show but i think it'd be hilarious to get an aphex twin video on it. i know one time some NKOTB fans got some old video of theirs to #2 on trl, so write-ins are definitely valid.

theirs no way that'd work with aphex twin. Their is like 300,000 people or something that vote on that show. We'd have to get every aphex fan in the world to vote on it.

There's this cool thing called macros. Like, you can totally get a computer to refresh a page, fill in information, and send it via a formover and over and over and over and over and over and over again. Very quickly.
It's great for internet voting where there is no restriction on the amount of times you can vote (like *gasp* TRL).
Pick a day, I'll send out tutorials. Anything to fuck the system.

Actually I think the reason Aphex didn't release anything for a while is that he thought he was getting too popular. Notice there has been no flashy Cunningham pop videos in a long time? And for a few years he was only releasing white labels with stickers on em.

Material from Drukqs and all manner of "IDM" is played all the time on MTV. They use it to accompany those endlessly fascinating bits of "cutting edge" film inbetween the pop videos that soundtrack teen pregnancy and paedophile fantasies.

not in the U.S...you won't find that
you people seem to forget that a lot of people just listen to what's in front of them .
so all those wanker people you refer to (mtv-types) could be changed with a little decent music (my opinion of decent music)
...but that's too much work i suppose
