The last ever Video Hits will air at 10am this Saturday on TEN.
The long-running music video show was a victim of cost-cutting under interim CEO Lachlan Murdoch last month.
The show, which has had an impressive 24 year run on television, will wrap with a retrospective of the two decades it has been on air, hosted by Faustina ‘Fuzzy’ Agolley and Dylan Lewis.
Any suggestions for the final song, please?

It is a great pity that there are no music shows like this left (don’t like Rage at all) … but the content for a long time has been mostly rubbish music and rediculous interviews with “nobodies” … Bring back Countdown!!!!!!!
Video hits has been a fouth option for some time now. with its inability to use the diverse rang of Music available to it it has killed itself.
Between MTV, VH1, Max, V and Rage all having better coverage of music from the past 60 years and also covering non mainstream music who would waste their time with a show devoted to current one hit wonders and the same crap you hear on the radio 4-5 times a day.
“So Long, Farewell” from the Sound of Music (I don’t know if that’s the actual title of the song though) 🙂
“Another Bites the Dust” by Queen
How about the Angels, Am I Ever Going to See Your Face Again
What am i gonna watch hungover every weekend now?!?!?!
Skyhooks..Why Don’t You All Get F****d!
These Are The Best Years Of Our Lives by Queen.
How about “Digital Downloads killed the Video Star?”
Weekends won’t be the same without Video Hits. ): I don’t understand why Ten are replacing the show with cooking programs (Good Chef Bad Chef, Boys Weekend), documentaries (Totally Australia) and whatever Tabatha’s Takeover and The Doctors is.
“Time of your Life” – Greenday
I still don’t understand this descision. Surely Video Hits is a low cost filler for weekend and late night TV. Why not just remove the hosts and have back to back songs like rage?
How good was Video Hits last week! More videos and less of the hosts. That’s how it should have been. Should have just axed the hosts and got the show back to showing music videos.
They should countdown the top 50 music videos of all time which #1 would have to be Thriller.
‘Fuzzy’ – Grant Lee Buffalo.
So will SC10 be showing this or don’t they associate with VH anymore?
The final song should be the first song ever played on Video Hits… whatever that was.
Thank goodness for Saturday morning rage (which is better anyway)
Another option is:-
Video Killed the Radio Star By The Buggles. It’d be ironic as it was the first thing shown on the original MTV in America. And both it and Video Hits have ended or didn’t continue forever as music video only shows. Yet radio still exists.
The Final Countdown by Europe. Wrong show but it follows Countdown.
‘The Final Countdown’ by Europe? Probably was aired in the first episodes anyway, having been a hit in 1986/7.
The Final Countdown?
The Carnival is Over ?
Whatever the first song was that was played on the first episode. Have no idea what it was though – anyone know?
hit me baby one more time , the final countdown or the spice girls – goodbye !!
I’d be interested to know how anything that replaces VH will be cheaper… I mean, it’s a clip show…
As for a song well… maybe ‘The End’ by The Doors… but no-doubt it will be something more akin to Greenday’s ‘Good Riddance’… maybe a revival of Vitamin C’s Graduation! haha
Never Gonna Give You Up might be a good one to end on, on multiple levels… they rickroll their audience, they get a song from the 80s when VH started, and maybe says something about remembering VH…
I’m just full of ideas, aren’t I!
