To those in the crowd under 30: Once upon a time, there was a magical television channel called MTV, short for “Music Television.” Well, it‘s like a YouTube channel, but on your TV instead of your tablet. Yes, it’s the same T-shirt from Target. The television channel aired “music videos,” which were like short films used for promotion and to enhance the song’s artistic message. Yes, like TikTok, but… no, yes, like TikTok.
For those over 30: Remember the music video? It was fun.
