  3. RIP Dave Kendall, former host of MTV’s 120 minutes. For those of us who grew up before we could pick up our phone, listen to a song, and have an algorithm recommend 10 songs that kinda sound like it, he was our algorithm- our taste maker. He was a champion for alternative music, and on Sunday nights, MTV belonged to the weirdos and the cool kids for a couple hours. Thank you for sharing the music with us. #music #120minutes

  4. RIP Dave Kendall. I watched 120 Minutes every Sunday night in high school (and then in college, but you weren't hosting anymore). Your show solidified my taste in music to this day!

  5. I first heard this song in 1991 after I bought Never Mind the Mainstream...120 Minutes Volume 2. I believe it was the only song not from the mid to late 80s, and I initially found it off putting, but now it's one of my all time favorites.

  6. I watch a lot of old #MTV / #120Minutes videos on YT & most videos I’ve seen plenty but this Cher collab w Beavis & Butthead came out of left field and is exactly why I keep watching random videos (bonus points for them wearing a VR headset) There was so much weird stuff in the 80s and 90s and I miss a lot of it #IWantMyMTV

    *in den 90ern fand ich die gut. #120Minutes lässt grüßen 😉

  8. We really lost something, collectively, as a society when we lost 120 Minutes on MTV. The fucking amazing shit they'd play. From Beasties to Elastica to Ministry, to Butthole Surfers to Sonic Youth to Ween to Matthew Sweet. It was all there, man. Magical shit.

  9. Boost or fave if you watched #120MINUTES on #MTV. I programmed my VCR to record it at 1am on Sundays and I watched it when I came home from school on Mondays. #genx #rock #punk #alternative #music

  10. Was Frank Black in a band called Frank Black but he wasn't the lead singer? #120Minutes

    The word is Love

    So easy, soooo many choices, I decided I’d go against type with this one, and so I give you:

    Whale, “Hobo Humpin' Slobo Babe” from album “We Care” 1995

    Lyric:
    “Baby, we don't love ya
    Baby, we don't love ya, baby, yeah!
    Baby, we don't love ya
    Baby, we don't love ya, baby, yeah
    Baby, we don't love ya
    Baby, we don't love ya, baby, yeah!!”

    This one is a RIDE: Here we go SO MUCH ENERGY SO ANGRY…ah, a verse, we can breathe…but it’s still wonky, off balance in here and OMG IT’S GOING AGAIN HANG ONNNNNNNN…and around we go again - but when it’s over all I want to do is play it again.

    This track makes me want to throw up that hand sign that means god-knows-what and whip my hair around the way we did in the club and hurt our necks when we thought we were too young for it to hurt our necks.

    Volume all the way up - this one’s what we used to call a lease-breaker.

  12. Whoa. Whoa.

    “A user named created a playlist that appears to contain every song ever aired on 120 Minutes … Among the playlist’s more than 2,500 videos are songs — Violent Femmes’ “Kiss Off,” The Psychedelic Furs’ “Love My Way,” Pearl Jam’s “Alive,” Fishbone’s “Everyday Sunshine,” R.E.M.’s “Stand” — that will take you back to the pop-cultural eras 120 Minutes spanned. But there are even more

  13. For those that remember the days of #MTV actually being their namesake (MUSIC Television) there was the "alternative" (College/Indie Rock at the time) show #120Minutes. Someone has built one hell of a comprehensive playlist on Youtube of those days: youtube.com/playlist?app=deskt

  14. I don't know how many folks were fans of #FrankBlack before they were fans of the #Pixies but count me as one of them!

    First exposed to him via #MTV's #120Minutes. THIS might be my favorite cover, which totally reimagines a Beach Boy's B-side into something very 90s and very heavy on the fuzzy guitars and Black Francis-ness.
