The Buggles - Video Killed The Radio Star Meaning
Video Killed The Radio Star Lyrics
Lying awake intently tuning in on you.
If I was young it didn't stop you coming through.
Oh-a oh
They took the credit for your second symphony.
Rewritten by machine on new technology,
and now...
-
Music was a little damaged after videos came about because now everyone has a face/identity.
-
Moving on with the times.
-
The song is about how MTV destroyed musicians ideas and song influences. Many bands were forced to dress a certain way and have a certain look or sound or they would no longer get TV airplay.
