====MTV Version (first 4 seasons)==== The contestant was strapped to a "[[Craftmatic]] adjustable bed", facing a wall of nine TV sets (including two turned sideways and one placed upside down) that were each playing a different [[music video]] simultaneously.<ref name=stpt /> The contestant had to identify the artists in the videos; each correct response awarded a prize and shut off that TV. Correctly identifying all nine artists within 30 seconds won the grand prize, usually a car or a trip ($5,000 in celebrity episodes).<ref name=stpt /> Before the clock started ticking, the contestant was given a split-second glimpse of every video at once. He/she could pass on a video and return to it after playing through all nine if time remained on the clock. The record for the fastest win, 8 seconds, was set by a contestant named Andrea on a November 1989 episode.
