does anyone have any idea why channel v is so anti-any decent music??
all they ever play is hard rock and hip hop/rap stuff and the occasional pop/rock which might be in the charts.
the only reason i ask, is because i just remembered that oneday one of the presenters said something about a request for roxette that they had and they just said something like “i remember them, they sang that song..... the look” and didn’t even play the request. This might have been around the time that RS was released in OZ.

where are you from - coz i was talking about Channel V in australia - in all the time that i’ve watched it they have never, ever played a song (old or new) had a doco about them or even had any news items about new stuff coming out etc.

HELLO , well i’m from Pakistan in Asia and i’m talking about V that comes her but when the centre of the heart time , they used to play it a lot , even MTV banned the whole video for just 1 sec scene but channel v cutted that scene and used to play the whole video.
Further i have approximately seen all rox videos before buying a vcd , so all videos that i saw were on channel v like
it must have been love
the look
run to you
june afternoon
dressed for success
fading like a flower
church of ur heart
do you get excited?
how do you do!
sleeping in my car
you don;t understand me
and she does’nt live here anymore.
these all videos that i have listed , i have seen them on v, but no videos of have a nice day and room service were ever seen by me , however my friends tell me that they have seen tcoth,milk and toast and honey and real sugar only on v and not on mtv , so for me , v is some more preferable than the boring mtv.

Hello! the only thing is this that there was a time when channel V only played Roxette , Madonna and Enigma etc , but ever since they handled channels to India , it lost it’s fame.Further Roxette went off in thw rong time like they stopped making any new thing till 3 years and in that instants , many new bands came and setted up a type of music which when Roxette came back did not match the trends of that time , then Roxette have made stupid videos that no one likes to watch like wish i could fly , anyone , stars was some good but anyone was banned and so was the centre of the heart.
This is all about , they need a good director which can direct videos like Fading like a flower and Milk and toast and honey , well my friends say that centre of the heart is always on air on Channel V ,the time when it was released.
