Vh1>MTV

If you passed 2nd grade math you'd understand. Vh1 is good even though they show pictures of freddie and no videos(ok so they played borhap once). NEVER SCANDAL!!!!!
That time will come, one day you'll see, when we can all be friends.

Excuse me...going off the topic folks... I am NOT a fan of Green Day... In fact I hate their music too.

I was using them in a comparison/analogy about how some artists (example, Queen, Dixie Chicks)get blacklisted or railroaded due to their artistic ideas, politics, concepts, what the hell..and other artists (example Greenday) do NOT but instead get praised and get even more airplay, record sales, etc...don't you guys think before you type...oh the agony!

Back to topic....hellooooooo.

Yeah real big of MTV, play Queen's videos, after and because Freddie died. Too little, too late, and only to reap ratings off of the timing of his death. Real nice of MTV, whose politics and blacklisting took a backseat to those all important timed RATINGS and MONEY, reaped off of Freddie's grave.

You know, there are more MTVs on this planet than just American MTV.
There is UK MTV, Holland MTV, German MTV...
During the period when I watched some of those (1989.-1995.) they normally played Queen videos...

(But, all that is nothing compared to VH1 - people who watch it tell me that VH1 plays Queen every day!)
