Sweet Dreams

1983. I remember the Union Board purchasing the first large screen television I had ever seen. It hung above the tables where we gathered in the Student Union to munch on hamburgers and talk art history. The fledgling MTV station played continuously. A major portion of the early programming was music videos. The surreal Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams" video coupled with their synth-pop beat was mesmerizing. Popular music would never be the same again.
