What are words for? / When no one listens any more?

 

"Video Killed the Radio Star" was originally released as a single in 1979, and then a slightly different edit was released on their first full-length LP in 1980. So it's sort of a "border" 80s song. And, of course, its biggest claim to fame was being the first song released on MTV when the network first launched (although they used the single edit I think).

Thanks for letting me know, I honestly discovered the crossposting option like, a few days ago lol. It probably didn't help that I accidentally crossposted this to the wrong community at first.

Follow up to this post: In the video, Glover makes reference to a man named Mr. Far, followed by a shot of himself wearing the outfit he wore on a (sort of) famous episode of David Letterman. Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jm2CbuTdTtE The episode aired on July 28, 1987, and the "Clowny Clown Clown" music video is from 1989, according to the video in the OP. Also, Mr. Farr's full name is Rubin Farr, and Glover played him in the movie Rubin & Ed (1991), which I have not seen but I think I probably will now.

Dream Scenario (2023)

I kind of like that Bandcamp allows proper embedding with the track.

I got banned from Reddit once lol. I just deleted the cookies in my browser and then made a new account and it worked.

I don't actually use the app, tho

Hey, thanks for the assist. I got it working just fine, I'm really impressed with the function. Been using qB for years and had no idea this thing was even there. This is a real game changer, thanks again.

Excuse my ignorance but I can't find the search function in qB that you're talking about. Assuming I have downloaded the most recent version of qB, where would I find it?

Soulseek is typically for music but I've found D&D pdfs there too.

Yeah, I recently used Soulseek for the first time and it's been great but those chat rooms are shit. Honestly though I'm not using it for chat so after I checked it out and made the same discovery you did, I decided there was nothing to gain there anyway.

Piracy in general is a pretty mixed bag but I don't think those chatrooms represent the community at large. Usually the worst thing people in this community do is just refuse to be helpful. And there are a lot of very generous people who keep this whole thing going.

Thank you, this seemed to have worked. I appreciate that you took the time to make that.
