NUMMYTYME Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 I'm having a hard time finding the name of an old song for which I remember the video vividly from MTV (in its very earliest days). I believe the song was called "Cut to the Edit" and the video displayed a young girl walking around what appeared to be a dump site or after a nuclear disaster (maybe train tracks in the background?) and she kept "chopping" with her hand/arm (to the beat of the music) and shouting "HEY!" It was a very choppy video (not filmed in real time) which just added to it's dark, mysterious, and artsy effect. I thought at one time I found the answer to this SOMEWHERE on the internet, but now I can't seem to get anywhere on it. Maybe I have the title a bit wrong. Can anybody help me out? It would have been from the EARLY 80s. Thanks much. P.S. Just found this site and it looks to be quite interesting!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_jr_ Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 Wow! I remember that video. That girl looked like some sort of ghoul or something. It was shot in some sort of stop action editing or something. Very herky jerky. I wish I could help you out. Maybe someone will be along shortly.

bazooka Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 I think it has to be Close (To The Edit) by Art Of Noise That won the 1985 MTV Video Music Award For Best Editing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
