Oh, Pete, baby -- I've seen "Beat It" and the Tyga video (adorable, btw) -- on MTV Hits. Do they not get that on the Encino cable at the Simpson compound? (;

It's hard for me to say this... but I agree with the Wentz.

As long as they don't play HIS music videos.

@Maura Johnston: I vividly remember catching Madonna's "Like a Prayer" before school one morning. Your comment totally just reminded me of this.

@eugenelangley: surely i'm not the only person who used to wake up *early* in order to catch the blocks of mtv's light-rotation videos. i fondly remember many pre-6 a.m. hours spent reading newsday and watching 'the wagon'... then being late to school anyway.

Today's generation will look back fondly and say "I can't believe I used to give a rat's ass what Ashlee Simpson's ex-husband used to think on those "blog' things we used to read."

The "what, no music videos?" debate seems kind of worn out at this point, but I do miss waking up to R. Kelly's "I Wish" every single morning like clockwork. MTV: Y'all don't see the inside of my unhappiness.

@NickEddy: The cover you probably heard is by My Chemical Romance and The Used, it got a lot of US radio play a couple years ago.

BTW, there's something really unsettling about a 28-year-old married man calling his personal site "a boy's life." You're only as old as your fanbase, I guess?

Yeah, guys. How are we supposed to catch every reference to older Fall Out Boy videos in new FOB videos if we haven't seen each of them a hundred times? Pete's been reduced to pastiches of videos people actually recognize, like Michael Jackson's, because the "Dance, Dance" video simply isn't as iconic as it should be.

@NickEddy: Keane does a cover. Them, maybe?

Oh! This has nothing to do with this - but who does the godawful beyond-unnecessary cover of "Under Pressure" I heard on the radio this past weekend? Reminding me not to turn on the radio ever again?
