they're enjoying Jersey Shore all day because of the fact Jersey Shore is approximately to return out with a final season on Oct. 4. So truthfully, they're doing a recap of each and every of the seasons because teach will truthfully be neglected. As for the song video clips, they have continuously carried out that. i upward thrust up at 6 am universal and that i hear to the song on an identical time as i'm getting dressed.

I can think of hundreds that i would play. However, my first 5 would probably be:



"2 Minutes To Midnight" by Iron Maiden

"Let There Be Rock" by AC/DC

"Headless Cross" by Black Sabbath

"Elimination" by Overkill

"Watch The Children Pray" by Metal Church



If Fonzie took over MTV for a day, i'd drop everything to watch that.

It wouldn't really matter to me as long as the song and video were interesting... and from at least 20 years ago.
