And so it begins...

At the end of 1985, MTV counted down the top 100 videos of the year.  And I created this blog in response.

At the end of 1986, once again, MTV counted down the top 100 videos of the year.

And once again, here we are.

1986 was a wild year in music.  Get ready for chaos and controversy. 

For those of you who hate surprises, here is the Top 100 list.  Oh yeah, we're gonna get into it.

There are some surprising placements, as we've come to expect from MTV.  And some startling omissions.  In fact, should you lean back in your chair as you read what follows, you may find yourself literally toppling over from the shock.

Get your popcorn ready.
