During the ’80s and ’90s, MTV held the crown as the ultimate cultural influencer. Before it transformed into a platform for endless reality shows, it exclusively broadcast music videos around the clock. Keeping track of the latest rock, rap, and pop tunes was a necessity if you wanted to stay current. The impact it had on Gen X and older Millennials can hardly be overstated. Recently, we’ve come across VTV, an affectionate spoof or tribute to MTV at its peak. This digital channel loops through the quirkiest (and sometimes irritating) novelty songs ever made.
Prepare yourself for an exciting new venture! Introducing VTV, a television station dedicated to music videos showcasing hundreds of quirky and amusing novelty songs. Catch it at vole.wtf/vtv/ for some unexpected musical entertainment!

As a seasoned movie critic reminiscing about the wild and unpredictable online landscape of yore, I must admit that VTV, created by the ingenious minds at Vole.wtf since 2002, is an uncanny tribute to the untamed Wild West era of the internet. This site harkens back to a time before monetization took over, transporting you straight into those golden years.
But what makes this website truly unique is its VTV player, which miraculously gathers an eclectic assortment of songs from YouTube, offering each viewer a one-of-a-kind musical journey. And with the wealth of rare novelty tunes available on YouTube these days, even the most obscure and forgotten ditties from yesteryear can be rediscovered here.
Contemporary music charts predominantly feature songs that lean towards conventional styles rather than the novelty hits popular in times past. In earlier eras, humor or a catchy gimmick could propel a song to chart success without being a direct parody of an existing hit like Weird Al Yankovic’s work. Songs such as “The Purple People Eater” from the ’60s and “Pac-Man Fever” from the ’80s serve as examples of novelty songs breaking into the mainstream. While some of these tracks are well-made and enjoyable, many can be quite grating. If you’re ready for a dose of old-school novelties, tune in to VTV and test your tolerance level!
