That also was the FIRST video shown on Music Television2!!
I recorded the first 6 hours of their airing.It was same Date/Time  as MTV
started(96).It wasn't on ANY Cable company lines.If you had a C-band Dish you got
it! My Oldest Son and I stayed up to watch the premiere of it Just so we could say
We seen it.Of ocurse it hasn't been as good as it was when it first came out; the
first year had not 1 commerical.Now they have started to change Just as MTV
has/did.
