    Arrgggh !
    Now I feel culturally deprived !
    I haven't had cable in 3 years, & the only one of those videos I've
    seen is the Janet Jackson one.
    I can't say that I miss it though; look what they're calling "metal"
    these days.
    Paul

    
    I'd like to see "Belly" take an award or two. However, with Porno for
    Pyros, and 4 Non-blondes, in this years entries it makes for tough
    decisions.
