If you were around at the dawn of MTV, chances are you saw this next video in heavy rotation, though it was 2 years old.
Nick Lowe's "Cruel to be Kind" gained a whole new audience thanks to the then-fledgling channel, after peaking at #12 on the US & British pop charts.

Always loved this song - it seemed like it was a throwback to the mid 60s.
The video I had never seen until relatively recently, although the song always had a way of turning up on either the radio or even the playlists of a clothing store.
Was it ever mentioned why The Textones' instruments were in the video? I don't think it was them playing in the video.
Not sure about that myself.
