Although this disk contains fifteen videos for several popular songs, the videos are NOT necessarily the popular versions seen on early MTV. Most notably: I Ran (Flock of Seagulls) doesn't contain a single frame showing Mike Score's famous hairdo. In a Big Country (Big Country) & Barbie Girl (Aqua) appear to be original, but Cars (Gary Numan) isn't. Other titles include All Night Long (Lionel Ritchie), Shout (Tears for Fears), Tubthumping (Chumbawumba), All Around the World (Lisa Stnasfield), Walking on the Sun (Smash Mouth), Promises Promises (Naked Eyes), One Thing Leads to Another (The Fixx), Everyday I Write the Book (Elvis Costello), Hold Me Now (The Thompson Twins), All My Life (K-ci & JoJo), and Closing Time (Semisonic). A montage of trademark early-MTV clips introduces the videos, and each is preceded by a brief excerpt from an interview, usually with the original band members.
