Better Hurry Up & Find Your Last Chance Texaco for Music Videos Online

If you're a fan of '80s music, you're probably already painfully aware of the dearth of opportunity you have to see your favorite vintage music videos from 15, 20 and 25 years ago. And if you're a regular visitor to this site, you're probably rolling your eyes at the prospect of another rant about VH1 and MTV from yours truly. Don't worry; I'll spare you that this time, at least after this paragraph.

What I wish to do instead is implore thee to make your way to any number of websites currently active (which will remain nameless here) that feature impressive catalogues of '80s music videos culled from television screens. Of course, it was only a matter of time before someone in power decided that this was a grave threat to copyrights everywhere. Not that there's anything wrong with such outrage directed at a medium that, unlike CDs or DVDs, has practically no money-making potential being denied by ready and free availability. Nonetheless, enjoy it while you can and where you can. You don't get to see the video for "When the Heart Rules the Mind" every day, you know.
