Um...how is that funny? It was really the first song on MTV... and it really is perfect, no? Lol - VIDEO killed the radio star? Oh yeah man...fckn hilarious..
I lost my dad yesterday. Growing up, he’d tell me and my siblings that we would start a band and this was the song we “rehearsed” in the car. An all time great memory
Do you know of any other music that has something similar to the female voice? I like her voice but they are doing something with the reverb or something. Is there a name for it?
Remember when MTV was supposed to be the end of radio? I guess that didn't work out too well for them, considering radio is still going and MTV now consists of "Jersey Shore" and "16 and Pregnant".
I love you for this comment lol. I too had some confusion regarding songs when I was little. I used to think “oh how id love to be in that number” was about being on like a number 8 float in a parade, a literal number
@@skflmgjok462 That’s the reason why licensing music for video games became a thing, GTA 3's music was rather obscured or new so Rockstar gambled and introduced this concept for GTA VC which was set in the 80s.

This gives me vibes of the end of a sad movie, the character is lying in a bath/bed/couch trying to forget about the events of the movie, they hold their hand on their head as the camera slowly pans out and fades into black.

you can have your heists, you can have you dual wielding, and you can have your Multiplayer but you know what Vice City has it had the best soundtrack of any GTA.
This song holds meaning to me.. as much as I try to dig, I don’t often think about how much it does mean to me, mainly because I haven’t lost the person who made this song mean so much to me or whatever.. I thank my mom for introducing me to this music. This is a song that makes me laugh, cry, or just space out at times.. no matter how I’m feeling.
My dad used to play this all the time in the car when I was a kid. I remember just laughing and dancing with him every time we were on the road. Good times.
I honestly don't know where I first heard this song, it was so long ago. I'm pretty sure I found it by accident I'm still in love with this song till this day
You are so right. Even if an artist isn't the best singer, they're music can still be good due to their playing and their lyrics. I'd rather have an okay singer with great overall songs than an autotune mess.
so true. I spend a lot of time looking for artists who can sing live. I have found several, of course, who are relatively "successful", but still aren't top 40 auto tuned, over produced pop like music.
It’s funny that this sounds exactly like Shane Dawson’s “crazy pink wig” song and it literally says “Video killed the radio star”....all of those videos resurfacing about Shane killed his career 👀
Aww! I remember me and my cousin dancing to this on Just Dance! We loved it so much- it was the only song we would ever dance too when playing. So many memories!
An absolute classic, gives me nostalgia for a time I didn't even live in. I didn't grow up with it either, but man I wish I did. Has a similar bouncy energy to "The Power of Love" by Huey Lewis and the News, which IS a song I grew up with and still enjoy even though it was before my time. That aside, it's ironically sad. Video indeed killed the radio, and now it's internet which killed the video. Time flies.
Considering how the radio announcer’s voice delivery of the lines like with “AND I REMEMBER…the jingle used to go~” It’s has such a subtle sadness in his delivery, like an 90 year old war vet remembering what life was like right before the 2nd world war broke out and how things used to be peaceful. Or something to that effect anyway.
This song played when I was playing GTA Vice city and I messed up a corner, as my car fell into the sea the song went "In my mind and in my car, we can't rewind we've gone too far."
Man, the memories. My mom had a big 80's music triple CD pack and I remember this was the 1st song on that pack. I used to "borrow" those CD's and play them while I played with my toys. Good times.
Same bro, me Mum (actually me Dad) had an "80's greatest hits CD" (that when and me sister were young little lads we called 'CD's' 'Music Disks', because we didn't know the name of those things, thought they sounded better being called music disks, and that's it, plus though we listened and could remember this song around the time Minecraft came out, since none of us knew about it, we kept calling CDs 'Music Disks' and even after we found out about Minecraft from our cousins, we still probably called them that as a joke if you will. Anyways, personal, childhood back story out of the way, (and the Birtish speech jokes (since I'm not British, I'm American)), also another neat thing, around the same time Minecraft released, a few covers for "Video Killed the Radio Star" got released to, like the modern 2010s addition of the song by "Young London", or the fan made version inspired by Just Dance's version of the song, or the slow more sad-ish sounding version of the song by "Miss Lyus", but anyways, I remember every time at home and in the car, my parents always played the "80s greatest hits" CD, and this CD had some interesting cover art, it was blue, and made itself "try" to look like a very small Record Disk, and I think it had some white font that said what it played on the CD, but anyways, the reason why I'm talking about this is because for about 4 or so years, my parents lost that CD, and they played it for us for years, throughput both me and sisters childhood even, and now it's gone, I keep hoping and praying someday me or my parents or sister can find it within all of our stuff packed in the basement, and who knows where the hell it got stuck in or whatever. And dispeit it being some stupid little CD, it meant a lot to me, at least I can somewhat suffice myself by whating this video, watching it reminds me of the disk, the memories made, and music played, but since we're in the fucking digital era, we can search up and listen, and save whatever song is on our mind in all of the very devices created for all of us, rather than suffering from the fact you lost the only way to listen to songs you loved the most ever on something you lost, but despite that I can search up any song I can fucking remember from that CD, and from other stuff I just want to add to my personal playlists, I still miss that disk, I hope I'll find it soon, but since me and my family couldn't find it, our hopes of being able to actually find it, are low, I hope we find it soon.
Well, it's about the loss of an old and familiar generation, making way for something new and uncertain. Despite its upbeat tempo, it's rather melancholy in its yearning for what was.
My 7th grade art teacher brought me here. She always played the radio in class and one day, this song came on. I jotted down "video killed the radio star" in my notebook, looked the song up on RUclips when I got home and the rest is history. Thanks again to Ms. Stasik for introducing me to this song.
Is just me or is ironic that first music video on MTV was in fact Video Killed the Radio Star? Hmm, I wonder were The Buggles prophets or were they just taking a guess at the future of MTV? Either way maybe we should've listened!
What you fail to recognize is, this song came out in 1979. two years before Mtv ever came into existence. They couldn't have taken a guess at the future of Mtv in '79 because there was no such thing as Mtv.
i love that this song is like. ubiquitous for 2000s kids because our parents were kids when the song came out and they shared it with us when we were kids. its honestly really sweet.
Oh god... oh god! WHAT IS THAT THING!? NO! NO, GET AWAY! GET AWAY FROM WOMBAT, NO! PUT HIM DOWN! NOOOO! WHY, GOD!? OHHHH GOD, I LOVED YOUUUU WOMBAAAAT! I LOVED YOU SO MUCH!
I remember first hearing this song. I wish I could relive that moment when i first heard it. I don't know what kind of feeling it was but it's a moment that sticks out in my mind that I'll never forget.
The red box booth will be hard to kill, the booth is like a soda machine, where I live there are a lot, at my local supermarket there is one and there is always a lot of people lining up to rent movies.
TheEgyptianOne I mean the radio stations wtih titles like Free Bird and Personal Jesus were great, I liked just driving around in GTA Sa just to listen to the radio aswell in GTA Vice City, so for me it's close.
this use to be the only song I played while playing that dancing game with the mats on the floor. I think It was called dance dance revolution ( not sure )
I had this classmate from elementary and we both share the love of 80s music. He introduced me to this song, whenever I hear this song it reminds me of him. We didn't go to the same high school and rarely get in touch. We met again in college and now he doesn't listen to this music. He had changed, I always remember that boy!
So, generations: 1920s: Radio era 1930s: Fall of the radio, rise of the TV 1940s-1980s: TV era 1990s: *Internet entered the chat* 2000s-2010s: Fall of the TV, rise of the internet Hmm, I wonder what 2020 will bring us.
I remember this song. I remember when I was a kid I'd hear it this when my older sister and brother watched MTV and id just dance all goofy... I miss my brother. Huh sorry
It just blows my mind that this was the first song played on MTV. It's honestly so perfect.
You're funny

@@nasseem7899 I forget the number of the episode, but I think it's the one where Cell was introduced, with The Wombat
TJ and the Wombat would like to know your location.
98.5 the cell
"911, what's your emergency?"
"Video killed the radio star!"
I used to love this song in GTA Vice City. I just went into a random car sitted about minutes only to hear this song. Flash fm ❤️
Is just me or is ironic that first music video on MTV was in fact Video Killed the Radio Star? Hmm, I wonder were The Buggles prophets or were they just taking a guess at the future of MTV? Either way maybe we should've listened!
It was also the last video on MTV
What you fail to recognize is, this song came out in 1979. two years before Mtv ever came into existence. They couldn't have taken a guess at the future of Mtv in '79 because there was no such thing as Mtv.
Honestly this womans voice tuches my heart!😭😊😊 2:30
omg i swear best partt
i love that this song is like. ubiquitous for 2000s kids because our parents were kids when the song came out and they shared it with us when we were kids. its honestly really sweet.
Oh god... oh god! WHAT IS THAT THING!? NO! NO, GET AWAY! GET AWAY FROM WOMBAT, NO! PUT HIM DOWN! NOOOO! WHY, GOD!? OHHHH GOD, I LOVED YOUUUU WOMBAAAAT! I LOVED YOU SO MUCH!

Ohh a ohh vidio killed the raid io star we listened to this at school I can't stop watching it
I remember first hearing this song. I wish I could relive that moment when i first heard it. I don't know what kind of feeling it was but it's a moment that sticks out in my mind that I'll never forget.
Thanks, now I can find out what the serial killer is confessing to
"Internet killed the video star..."
Cell's favorite tune.
Yep I rember that part
This has been stuck in my head because of that
Skoll Shorties Good day, fellow tfs-fan

internet killed the video star
one thing i remember despite being born in like 2004 was that this was played so much on mainstream radio for some reason.
I just can't keep still when this plays...good times way back when !!😊😊😉😉
When I was like 3 my mom would blast this in the car #TheGoodOldDays
i keep coming back to this video because the flashing "video killed the radio star" text at the end gives me some sort of emotion
I heard that song from GTA Vice City game while I change the radio station
in the car. #Cool
Wow. Do u have any GTA games
Cool. Do you finish all whole game of GTA Vice City
Cool. I got GTA vice city stories and I already finish whole game of it
In GTA VCS, I can't believe that Vic can't enter airplane if you played as him to lay on airplane with something
unknown Person Same

Redbox killed the video store
Netflix killed the Redbox booth.
+Miles Prower Entertainment (MPE) There's a Redbox at my local Walmart
The World In a few years or decades, there might not be.
The red box booth will be hard to kill, the booth is like a soda machine, where I live there are a lot, at my local supermarket there is one and there is always a lot of people lining up to rent movies.
we still have a video store in my town
Video killed the radio star
Netflix killed the Blockbuster star
RUclips killed the Netflix star
+Marshall H. I'd rather have Blockbuster a block away than Netflix literally everywhere.
+Marshall H. haaaaaaaaaaa
i totally agree with that.
Ugh, I hate Netflix. It's killing off things that people still use, it's really frustrating.
And Viacom killed the video star
Now - Internet killed the videostar
Cell sure has good "taste"

Thanks to my childhood and playing GTA Vice City this song will be with me forever!
Just Dance took me here

Oh wow...they have Just Dance for this?! Thank you! 😂❤️
Same I thought I was the only one
Same same
OoF
Who else here back in the day blasted this song and Flock Of Seagulls I Ran, while playing GTA Vice City on the in game radio?
My favorite song on Flash FM in GTA Vice City
TrentTheHedgie SELF CONTROL
TrentTheHedgie f yes man you blew my mind 🤯
Or Africa ooooh nostalgia cames :)
_AlonEr_ That plane mission
@@skonczonykretyn939 oh yeah man
the vice city memories
had the best radio of the GTA series, even k-chat was hilarious.
*****
Gta san andreas was close though.
***** gta san andreas was good as a game but it didn't have that vibe/atmosphere that vice city had.
TheEgyptianOne I mean the radio stations wtih titles like Free Bird and Personal Jesus were great, I liked just driving around in GTA Sa just to listen to the radio aswell in GTA Vice City, so for me it's close.
this use to be the only song I played while playing that dancing game with the mats on the floor. I think It was called dance dance revolution ( not sure )
Melissa_son15 yess !! same here love my childhood @! Dance dance revolution
it's also on just dance
I had this classmate from elementary and we both share the love of 80s music. He introduced me to this song, whenever I hear this song it reminds me of him. We didn't go to the same high school and rarely get in touch. We met again in college and now he doesn't listen to this music. He had changed, I always remember that boy!
Interesting life story. I like it.
TV killed radio and now the internet is killing TV.
radio's revenge
So, generations:
1920s: Radio era
1930s: Fall of the radio, rise of the TV
1940s-1980s: TV era
1990s: *Internet entered the chat*
2000s-2010s: Fall of the TV, rise of the internet
Hmm, I wonder what 2020 will bring us.
first heard this song on just dance for the Wii
Same here and it's the only Just dance I play now
Benjamin K Seriously?? Thats awesome!!
SAME.
Gta vice city
I first heard it while driving Tommy Vercetti's Admiral.
I've heard this twice before. On the radio on the SirusXm station 80s on 8, and on I Want My MTV.
I remember this song. I remember when I was a kid I'd hear it this when my older sister and brother watched MTV and id just dance all goofy... I miss my brother. Huh sorry
This is literally the only song that makes me happy nowadays..
2018: fortnite killed the Minecraft star

FBI OPEN UP
Is it bad that I haven't heard the entirety of this song till just now? I feel like a disgrace to my generation, lol.
I haven’t even heard of this song til about an hour ago
@fox- yeah it's kinda bad! Also understood. It's a beloved. The words are scary in the ironic way. So true!
I wish I could go back in time to 1981 and relive MTV all over again. The way it USED to be.
