I love how music videos went from cheaply made but fun afterthoughts to over the top high concepts to super cinematic stuff in a few years. Much like the music itself, retro videogames or golden age Pixar, the history is as exciting as the product itself because the directors were often a bunch of young ambitious kids who went on to became legends.
Fully agree, the burp being cut was more than likely just a hasty fade to commercial, or whatever else was coming on next.
This video creeped me out SO much as a young child! It gave me ridiculous nightmares, so glad I can laugh about it now, lol
This is the opposite for me. This video is what introduced me to Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers through Pop Up Video on Vh1 when I was a kid. I loved this video, especially since I was already a fan of Alice in Wonderland to begin with.
@@breannaperkins88 Actually I ended up a fan as well! In 86 I bought the vinyl of Southern Accents and loved the song ever since. The video to me is harmless now but I was only 8 when I saw it and it screwed with my head a little, lol
I loved it but it's all subjective. The only TP music vid I found a bit creepy was Mary Jane's Last Dance where he's a doctor dancing with a good looking corpse so I just listen to the music.
Excellent vid! Love your 80s MTV coverage.
This channel is very underrated
A lot of work to make this 👌
Ya know, I was a 5 year old girl at the time this was airing on tv, and I didn't see what was so wrong with it. She's cake! Thriller, which came out earlier, was much more frightening to me as a 5-year-old, but I still had a blast watching (and dancing to) that music video.
Another fantastic video retrospective! My parents were of the MTV generation, so they would often show me music videos on youtube when I was a kid. I remember this video and the cake scene TERRIFIED ME! I was mortified I thought they had really eaten poor Alice! Though now I see it’s really very silly, part of me is still really uncomfy watching that scene! Really glad to know the history though!
It's ironic because the original Alice in Wonderland drawings and early film productions were so much more frightening and weird especially during the 60s drug culture period, ah well. Frankenstein totally gave me nightmares so I get it.
I can understand a lil kid getting disturbed by the cake scene, I was disturbed by innocuous stuff in cartoons as a kid too. But that's just part of growing up.
You have to do Van Halen's right now
When I seen The Jacksons “Torture” referenced in this episode I thought to myself immediately that would make an incredible episode of this series. Wax figure MJ, the animated skeletons, the choreographer getting fired for Paula Abdul, the company behind the video production going bankrupt and tons and tons of cocaine!
Oh yes...the choreographer that got fired for Paula Abdul was Perri Lister, who was Billy Idol's girlfriend around that period.
Not to be "that guy", but...the past tense of "catch" is "caught". "Catched" is not a word.
How did MTV not know that it’s “inaugural” and not “1st Annual?” Something can’t be annual if it’s the first time it’s happening.
If ya know about Spirit Cooking that cake scene takes on a new meaning...
Like how grape juice and crackers represent drinking the blood and eating the flesh of the Jesus.
Funny how the Christians engage in such cannibalistic rituals without a thought, and yet protest this?
Now I do not condone cannibalism, in either context, I just find it manically hypocritical...
Maybe someone needs to add a warning to the Bible...?
The final clip of the MV is vore 😯
