Is there anyone who has some sort've ev'dence o' MTV USA Buzz Clips circa Fall 1994 of the 5 Buzz Clips they'd show, the 5 being: Radiohead, Stone Temple Pilots, Stereo MCs, Urge Overkill, and Blind Melon. Maybe Tone Toni Tony in there som'ere's.

Try as I might, I can't decipher what the question here is.

Gee, I can barely decipher it, an' I wrote it. I think I was operating on this theory:

MTV used to show "Buzz Clips", i.e. snippets of music videos from up-and-coming bands. They showed snippets of 5 bands at a time. In late 1994 they ran a commercial showing snippets of Radiohead's "Creep," Stone Temple Pilots' "Plush," Stereo MCs "Something or Other," Blind Melon's "No Rain," and Urge Overkill's "Something or Else-Other."

Question is: Does anyone have a recording of this thirty-second Buzz Clip commercial? It has significant sentimental value to me.

Actually, I think it was Fall of 1993, a year earlier than I stated above.

He's asking if anyone has a list of every song that was in MTV's Buzz Bin rotation, and when the dates they were in that rotation. The "Buzz Bin" was a special heavy rotation for featured videos by new artists. Most of the songs that were earmarked as Buzz Clips ended up being the biggest alt-rock hits of the 90s.
