The Buggles - Video Killed the Radio Star



Some lyrics to the song (not mine!)

I heard you on the wireless back in fifty two
Lying awake intent at tuning in on you
If I was young it didn't stop you coming through

They took the credit for your second symphony
Rewritten by machine and new technology
And now I understand the problems you can see

I met your children
What did you tell them?

Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Pictures came and broke your heart.

And now we meet in an abandoned studio
We hear the playback and it seems so long ago
And you remember the jingles used to go... oh, oh

You were the first one
You were the last one

Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
In my mind and in my car
We can't rewind we've gone too far

Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
In my mind and in my car
We can't rewind we've gone to far
Pictures came and broke your heart
Put the blame on VCR

You are a radio star
You are a radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
You are a radio star
You are a radio star

Steve Miller Band - Serenade



Some lyrics to the song (not mine!)

Did you see the lights
As they fell all around you
Did you hear the music
Serenade from the stars

Wake up, wake up
Wake up and look around you
We're lost in space
And the time is our own

Whoa, whoa
Ahhhhhhhhh

Did you feel the wind
As it blew all around you
Did you feel the love
That was in the air

Wake up, wake up
Wake up and look around you
We're lost in space
And the time is our own

Whoa, whoa
Ahhhhhhhhh

The sun comes up
And it shines all around you
You're lost in space
And the earth is your own
