Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!

This page says it was Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing": http://www.pthompson.addr...underkats/

Whah? You GOTTA be kidding. VH1 has been around since the late 80's, right? maybe even the mid-80's?

I believe BinaryJustin is right.
Dolphin was the first video played
on VH1 UK.

Yes - I can verify that. VH1 in the UK started years after VH1 (U.S.) and I remember watching purposely (or should that be "porpoise-ly" - SORRY!) to watch the first video which was "Dolphin".

Also, I believe Dolphin was the first video shown on the RELAUNCH of the US version of VH-1. They changed their format in the early 90's and this video was shown as the station re-focused their format.
