Can you believe it? Martha Quinn, sweetheart of the 1980s music video viewing generation and former gal pal of Stiv Bators (Dead Boys, Lords of the New Church), turns 50 today! Happy day, Martha. We still love you.
It’s not just me, right? Martha was the best VJ ever. UPDATE: Further evidence that Martha rules: she left a comment! Yay!

my formative years were filled and colored with such great people. even on MTV…at 8 years old I was in great great company. looking back at old clips…the original VJs had a sincerity, hipness,true love for music, and unspoken intelligence all but abscent today. Growing up in a small town in the middle of nowhere…Martha Quinn was one of the most important narrators to my childhood quilt. Happy Birthday Martha. Thank you from afar.

OMFG! Bill Griffith’s posting here pales in comparison to this! Kudos to you Gina! And my apologies to Bill Griffith.

Martha Quinn stops by your blog. How about that. Now if you can get Chan Marshall or Jenny Lewis to stop by.
