Doncha hate that?
When MTV first started, I used to be a continual watcher. It was
something new, they (mostly) played really cool music, whatever. The
beginning of the end (for me) was when they first thought "heavy
rotation" would be a good idea. I still can't listen to J. Geils'
"Freeze Frame" without shuddering.
