Golden Hour of World Music Videos w/ Subtitles a/k/a
Video no Mató a la Estrella del Radio
Today (August 1) is the 39th anniversary of the launch of MTV! Here's Bappi Lahiri's take on the first song ever played on MTV - sung by Usha Uthup for (we believe) Kim Yashpal in the 1982 Bollywood musical Disco Dancer:
With that anniversary in mind, on tonight's show we ask the musical question: Is there any reason for music videos to exist? And the answer is a resounding yes!
You see: We know that one of the challenges of our show is that you may not understand the lyrics of the songs we're playing. But the magic of video solves that problem. Join us for our Golden Hour of World Music Videos With Subtitles - with video links posted for each song (or see the full video playlist at http://tiny.cc/tsp-subtitles) - in Hour 2 of our show tonight!

just caught the last bit of your show -- thank goodness for archives! your shows are always the coolest -- thanks so much!
the cats, of course, were enjoying your show in AC'd comfort -- and the old "and i work for you and i slave for you in this sweltering heat!" etc. (and i was, indeed, schlepping around buying cat food, litter, etc.) never works for them -- their general response is, "And your point is -- ???"
thanks again -- STAY COOL!
