List Of MTV Slogans

In the early days of MTV, the first and most popular music television network in the U.S., many of the more successful musicians featured on the channel could be seen doing station identification spots for the network, exclaiming the signature line, ''I want my MTV!'', and other phrases. Over the years, MTV would gather a large list of slogans that would become embedded in popular culture.
