Gazi69 -- Well, it depends on where you were. Sky is in Europe, so it was likely Dire Straits "Money for Nothing," which includes Sting starting and ending the sond with "I want my MTV". In the U.S., MTV's first video was "Video Killed the Radio Star" by The Buggles and that was followed by Pat Benatar's "You Better Run". On MTV Latina, the first video was "We Are South American Rockers" by the Chilean band Los Prisioneros. On MTV Brasil it was "Garota de Ipanema" by Marina Lima. Wikipedia "MTV," (Nov. 16, 2006) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MTV MTV highlights each of the songs on its site and also streams the relevant videos: MTV "The Buggles: biography" http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/buggles/artist.jhtml#/music/artist/buggles/bio.jhtml MTV "Money for Nothing" http://www.mtv.com/overdrive/?name=music&id=1535994 MTV "1981 Yearbook" http://www.mtv.com/overdrive/?name=music&id=1535994 Google search strategy: MTV "first video" Hoping that we brought a little music to your life, Omnivorous-GA |

I am pretty sure it was Buggles. They released Video Killed the Radio Star. |
