If you grew up watching MTV when it was introduced and was worth watching, you remember this song. It was the first video played when the station started and is a classic 80s song. My 13yr old daughter actually downloaded it and likes the catchy lyrics and tune. We even used it as a vocabulary lesson when she asked what is a "wireless".

Good god, I feel old... I remember seeing the video to this on MTV - for all you youngsters that don't know the history, this was the first video that every played on MTV. Of course, this was back when MTV stood for "Music Television" and not "Missing, really bad reality TV that wouldn't make it off of the cable channels."
I miss these days.

Downloaded this title acter hearing Pentatonix perform it on youtube and fell back in love with this classic! Great zound quality and glad this is the full version of the song, including the intrumental opening and closings.

An Mtv theme song, maybe not! Anyway this is one of those "gotta have" songs. This recording sounds great. Get this one it's worth it.
