Let me rock your socks off every Tuesday with two songs that relate to each other in whatever way I see fit.

More Music

I owe an apology to all of you who aren't my facebook friends. I kind of got sidetracked by a little project I started over there. Its a sequel to the 30 day music challenge, which you know hooked me in a couple of months ago. I tried blogging THAT music, but then when I started my own 30 days of music, I quit blogging altogether. I'm sorry. I am back. I still love all of you. You can join my facebook group The Next 30. if you want to and see all the songs I posted and post some songs of your own. That would be fab.













Lyrics:

I heard you on the wireless back in 52
lying awake intent a tuning in on you
if I was young it didn't stop you coming through

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

Oh oh -- I met your children
oh oh -- what did you tell them
video killed the radio star
video killed the radio star
pictures came and broke your heart
we can't rewind we've gone too far

And now we meet in an abandoned studio
we hear the playback and it seems so long ago
and you remember the jingle used to go

Oh oh -- you were the first one
oh oh -- 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 too far

(Instrumental)

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
pictures came and broke your heart
look I'll play my VCR

Oh radio star
Oh radio star

Video killed the radio star
video killed the radio star
video killed the radio star
video killed the radio star

Video killed the radio star
video killed the radio star
video killed the radio star
video killed the radio star
video killed the radio star



The kids are disco dancing
They're tired of rock and roll
I try to tell them "hey that drum machine ain't got no soul"
But they don't want to listen no
They think they've herd it all
They trade those guitars in for drum machines and disco balls
We can rewind now we've gone too far
Internet killed the video star
The kids are disco dancing
They're tired of rock and roll
Don't bother telling them that drum machine ain't got no soul
The kids are disco dancing
They're tired of rock and roll
Don't bother telling them that drum machine ain't got no soul
You know we never listen we think we've seen it all
Like everything we're doing no ones ever done before
Did you hear what they said?
That rock and roll is dead?
Yeah it's like a zombie ti will dig it's self back up again
Tune in the signal but it's fading
Some ghost strumming his guitar on the radio
Singing "oh the glory days are gone but everything ok cause we still love our sex and drugs just like the good ol' days"
The kids are disco dancing
They're tired of rock and roll
Don't bother telling them that drum machine ain't got no soul
The kids are disco dancing
They're tired of rock and roll
Don't bother telling them that drum machine ain't got no soul
Well I'm a horrible dancer I ain't gonna lie
But I'll be damned if that means that I ain't gonna try
Yeah I'm a shitty romancer baby I ain't gonna lie
But I'll be damned if that means that I ain't gonna try
Get up get up get up and dance
Get up get up get up and dance
The kids are disco dancing
They're tired of rock and roll
Don't bother telling them that drum machine ain't got no soul
The kids are disco dancing
They're tired of rock and roll
Don't bother telling them that drum machine ain't got no soul
The kids are disco dancing
They're tired of rock and roll
They're tired of rock and roll
They're tired of rock and roll
We can't rewind we've gone too far
The internet killed the video star
The internet killed the video star
The internet killed the video star
