Same a different just better time.. it was way more creative, so many great art and artists came out of that time and now we live in a world where it’s lacking creativity
Wish i could go back and live my era all over again 😪 1990 - 1992 was the beginning of my teen years. I'll cherish those memories 4ever. Much Love ❤️ to everyone from the MTV Generation. Peace ✌️
I was there! 20 years, in 1992! Nirvana's Spear Head Underground alternative music, that is still going to day. MTV's genre that they HAD to cater too, like it or not. Then in 1996, Full year of New Rock alternative, the successor of Grunge era. By 1999 MTV got tired of us. Thus, TRL. Now you know.
What's interesting about watching this in 2024 is how all the music and cultural stuff seems so very different 30 years later but when they start talking politics, it's as if nothing has changed at all with politicians still making empty promises around the economy and unemployment and whipping people up over nothing. Thanks for the time capsule!
19:05 Mike Concepcion responds to Koreans complaining about Black rioters destroying their own community. He says it's okay to burn it all down if someone else owns it.
Time's been a lot kinder to Paul's Boutique, thankfully. (I wonder how it would've fared if SoundScan were around.) The Rodney King thing gives me chills. So many people not feeling seen.
The whole Rodney King beating was staged. His bruises - Hollywood make-up job. When first interviewed, he was asked if the police yelled racial epithets toward him in which he replied "no." During the VH1 20th Anniversary special of the L.A. Riots, Rodney King said that the police repeatedly called him the N Word. He lied. People died. The L.A.P.D. and rap artists were just pawns in the Vatican's never-ending chess game.
I’m not even Gen X, my older sister is, I’m an old millennial (41) so I was still really young when this was going on, but by the mid nineties, my big sis started getting me into music and gave me my first cassette tapes. Among them were RHCP, Metallica, PJ, Soundgarden, Soul Asylum, etc. Ever since I maintain my position that the early 90s was the last real renaissance for rock and roll music. I despise everything my generation listened to (all of the nü metal and pop and stupid boy bands). Absolutely despise it all. To this day, the Seattle/grunge scene remains my favorite time for music and I still listen to it all religiously
@@TheGraduate702yep very much so. I have a coworker that is 27 and we have almost nothing in common from childhood. It’s very odd to me that I am considered the same generation as him. Evidently the cutoff year for Gen X is 1980, so I missed it by 2 years and 2 months. I have always felt far more connected to Gen X than millennials
I went to Lollapalooza 2 at riverbend ampitheatere in Cincinnati ohio. Ministry was the LOUDEST band i ever heard. Ice cube had mentioned they were playing at 152 decibels in the paper.
This is just about the time that our country began a more accelerated downward spiral which had originally commenced after the assassination of John F. Kennedy and was helped a long thanks to MTV. we’ll keep the music you can keep your politics. Ps - should have elected Ross Perot.
This was one hell of a year. Turned 21, we had a consequential presidential election, Lollapalooza 2, Metallica & Guns N Roses doing a stadium tour, had a professor in the Spring semester who was a tremendous teacher, esp on the subjects of civil rights and racism, did more happy hours and barhopping than I've ever done since.
1992 was a whole lot shittier than I remember. Its amazing just how many of the issues of today really started, or at least came to light, back then. Watch the Year in Rock for 85 and compare it to this...wow the world had changed drastically.
I don’t think it’s rose colored glasses.most ppl know heavy stuff happened,it’s just such a stark comparison from then til now.nothing is affordable anymore..
I choose to see the year with rose color glasses. but make no mistake, I remember other sht too. '92 was also the year I stopped trusting cops if you know what I mean.
The following summer I saw Arrested Development at Lollapalooza and they were GREAT. It was pretty damn hot that day but they still had us hopping in the pit. Fishbone were up right after them and they were great too - they continued to have us hopping the entire time. I must’ve drank two huge bottles after that.
I went to see a bunch of 90’s artists a few years ago. Sometime during the show I got bored and wandered around . I ended up onstage with Sir Mix a lot singing Baby Got Back with him. (Yep. I got pics.) 🤘🏼
Pearl Jam and Red Hot Chili Peppers. Enough said… two bands that are still around today and touring and making music. I love Anthony and Eddie Vedder 🖤
@@deepsea83 I’ll be damned it is…that’s a big faux pas right there considering they didn’t like each other hahaha…had me fooled the way he was sitting and talking and the way his hair looked and considering it was the year of Nirvana I didn’t give that a hard look…just assumed Kurt would be everywhere. And considering the dark humor that came from the lyrics of “Come As You Are” my brain must’ve put all that together and went “must be Kurt!” Nahhh…definitely wasn’t…definitely was guy who left James Hetfield hanging in Montreal not wanna to get upstaged by a pyrotechnics accident!
I heard Viacom were eradicating all of mtv news articles, but I really hope that doesn’t translate into deleting videos and specials too… that would be diabolical.
Love the lack of tracking because it seems more authentic and we don’t have authentic anymore. In today’s world we perfect imperfections and today we are desperately imperfect in so many ways. In 92 we elected a pervert and sent a war criminal packing. It’s a shame that we couldn’t see into the future at the time and send both him and his wife Hillary into obscurity. We didn’t realize that Kurt was not long for this world. All these songs are still bumping today and relevant. The only one that’s kind of obscure would be Ugly Kid Joe. Interesting fun fact!: I actually saw them in concert when they opened up for Def Leppard. Also, around this time maybe it was 93. I saw Metallica supporting the black album and the band suicidal tendencies opened for them.
LMAO "Nirvana, dragged kicking and whining into the pop music mainstream" NIGGUH PUHLEASE. Was that before they sgined with major record labels? And made 5 videos from one record (or however many)
lol. Dude, you would have never of made it through the 90’s. WAAAAAAHHHHHH! The quality is so bad!!!! They taped it off of tv onto a vcr tape. It’s actually in pretty good shape.
If you weren't around at that time, you'll never fully understand why it was so fucking awesome
Facts.
racism is a joke
The best summer of my childhood/teens
Yeah it’s actually like a different dimension at this point. It seemed like everyone had some kinda vibrant personality too.
Man so much happened in 92 glad I was there to see it all.
Same a different just better time.. it was way more creative, so many great art and artists came out of that time and now we live in a world where it’s lacking creativity
92 ,93, and 94 . Good years for music.
Absolutely.
I was 12. It was such an amazing year. ❤
Everything except adjusting the tracking button. Lol
Wish i could go back and live my era all over again 😪 1990 - 1992 was the beginning of my teen years. I'll cherish those memories 4ever. Much Love ❤️ to everyone from the MTV Generation. Peace ✌️
Thanks for this!
I was 15 and what a AMAZING TIME TO BE A TEENAGER❤❤🎉
Same!!!!!!
I was 9 🙂
MTV had such an influence on me as a teenager. Headbangers Ball was the best time to watch IMO.
It was awesome
30 years later,this is the year that changed dramatically,and will never see the light of day
again.
racism is a joke
Thank you for uploading!!!
Back when years seemed like decades by comparison.
Feels like every year as a man goes faster and faster…
I almost had a seizure trying to watch that 😅 but it did bring back memories of VHS days.
Gotta hit that tracking button!

I’ve watched the 1990, 1991 and 1992 episodes and every one of these episodes has a “Year in Madonna” segment hahaha
1990
Kurt Loder had a big crush on Madonna. 😊
32 years later, and I'm still not sick of "Smells Like Teen Spirit".
Any of it.i enjoy it all still
couldn't listen to it then , My friend got the cd for his birthday and kept going back to that track.
Thank you for the download!
Time's been a lot kinder to Paul's Boutique, thankfully. (I wonder how it would've fared if SoundScan were around.)

I was 13 (about to be 14 in Jan) I can tell you all this music changed my life
I was 20 in 1992. Good times, good times.
I’m not even Gen X, my older sister is, I’m an old millennial (41) so I was still really young when this was going on, but by the mid nineties, my big sis started getting me into music and gave me my first cassette tapes.

I’m starting to realize that we 40 year olds are millennials in name only . 😬

Ozzy in 1992 says he quitting touring, he just finished up no more tours #2 in 2023
Ozzy quit after 23 yrs of touring… I love that one. Saw him for the first time in 2018 at Jones Beach and he was great!
“Who isn’t wearing the ribbon?!”
Wheres the tracking knob on this thing?

Gotta track that thing up.
how??? 🤣🤣 it probably was recorded that way

Yeah, people tends to have on rose tinted glasses when it comes to the 90's.
Exactly. Humans are scum.

Is there a way do stream all of the mtv news episodes from the late 80 s all the way to the late 90 s
What a great time to be alive
It's kind of interesting the little coverage of pearl jam and sound garden
🤣🤣🤣'92 the year i started getting...curious of YT boys ,💖💖💖 it was MY summer of love and i was round 12,13.
I went to see a bunch of 90’s artists a few years ago. Sometime during the show I got bored and wandered around . I ended up onstage with Sir Mix a lot singing Baby Got Back with him. (Yep. I got pics.) 🤘🏼
Can someone please fix the tracking 😂. Driving my crazy, looking for the adjustment knob.
Body count, metallica, gnr mile high stadium good times.
Metallica/GnR/Faith No More. RFK stadium D.C.
I don't think Clinton ever went back on MTV
18:06 yeah Ice T speaking word...
Not all cops are bad..just like not all black or white people are bad.
@butterbean3166 Who?
You don't get the authentic experience of old MTV without five hundred commercials for over the counter acne medication.
It was nice to see Tabitha Soren's legs again ❤
She’s on an episode of Portlandia. Actually so is Kurt Loder, Martha Quinn, and a few of the other Vj’s. It’s pretty awesome
Glad I was there only to absolutely hate where we are now
Pearl Jam and Red Hot Chili Peppers. Enough said… two bands that are still around today and touring and making music. I love Anthony and Eddie Vedder 🖤
that damn VHS dust!!!
Great year.
What's with the tracking issues? You need to get a head cleaning cassette and clean those VHS heads! lol
God bless Korean Americans!
47:08 Kurt Cobain: They took my shoestrings out so I wouldn’t hang myself.
Yeah but they didn’t take the bullets out of your gun now did they?!
That’s Axl Rose so the joke’s on you

Do your best to save these videos and segments because I believe Viacom deleted decades worth of news and music a few days ago 6/25/2024

Well, they certainly whined a lot.
Negativism took over in everything
by the end of '92 into '93 ...yep
The Little Mermaid (1989) On MTV (1992)

Oh yeah, ZOO TV!
Yo! Fix the tracking
We'll fix it in post.
Great year! I was 12...It was all about "batman returns baby" lol

Nice but the video quality is so bad...
lol. Dude, you would have never of made it through the 90’s.
