  • i like this song... even though its a classic 1

  • glitch much?

  • many of you are radio stars!

  • The original Buggles pioneered sound production..this 'raw' version adds nothing...American 'Mulch'....again....do American truly understand irony?..I have hopes but need prompting....the signs ain't good.....

  • Very BAD cutting @ the end of the song!! OMG!!! Who did this? Jerry Lewis?!?! HAHAHAAH! ^^

  • dud, this isnt the cover of the offspring?

  • Comment removed

  • oh my god this sounds like shit.

  • internet killed the video star

  • @austin7956 THATS A SONG TOO!! but not like this one haha

  • internet killed television~

  • WOW FIRST THIS VIDEO WAS A LITTLE NERD CUTE NON POPURLAR VIDEO AND NOW LOOK AT IT :D

  • Check it out - Nicki Minaj rs

  • This Video really did kill the radio star

  • video killed the radio star 

  • love this song

  • やっとビートルズから脱却しつつあった時の名曲

  • @MrChopiliszt agreed

  • @TheArizonaicetea except the video was actually made my the Buggles.

  • 'Owah Owah!!!

  • This is so perfectly synced!~

    Awesome job!!

    ~♥~

  • The only great re-make of a classic 80s n MTV ground breaker.

  • First MTV Video...and I was there sitting there in my parents' living room...hypnotized.

  • "They took the credit for your second symphony rewritten by machine on new technology" alas I have found the definition of the bastard instrument known as Auto tune.

  • @robinsl27

    Ahaha!

    It's so true...

  • @robinsl27 yeah thats pretty much what its referring to, even nearly 30 years ago. radio stars could sing but werent good looking for tv and vice versa

  • Too fast and it just doesn't have the feel of the 80s New Wave (even though the original came out in 1979.)

  • @RussBP1981

    Well I consider the other one too slow and far too new wave and over the top pretentious bullshit. Aren't you sick of "hipsters" yet? If not go watch any lame fucking kristen stewart or micheal cera movie and prepare to be conservative.

  • all i hear when i play this song is: chuck norris, chuck norris, chuck norris, chuck norris, Mr.T, godzillia, superman, the rock, bruce willis, gary coleman, chuck norris...

  • I prefer the original version by The Bugles, the fist MTV music video in 1981. However, this was made for 90's audiences who had seen 1998's The Wedding Singer. In the 90's, I absorbed myself in 80's culture and it was fun because it had been my childhood and it was not that long ago. Now, it's sad, because todays punk kids and teens consider both the 80s and 90's as being the old days. F* them! I'm not old. I'm only 30! And got lots more living to do.

  • I like this better than the original...ehhh *shrugs*

  • 62 people killed the radio star.

  • Kinda torn...I like P.o.t.U.S.A, but I prefer the original song.

    Not a bad cover, though.

  • I have a good remake idea. For the next group who wants to make a remake, instead of, "video killed the radio star", it should be "Digital Killed the Video Star" a few other words should be changed, but for the most part, it fits perfect for a modernized form

  • @TheArizonaicetea well the buggles version obviously. lol

  • Poor!

  • I like POTUS, but the original is way better. this should not have been made, imo.

  • @fooloof what? the original is good you just must not like rock because about 80% of people may believe this to be better than the original. guess its all preference. but this is definatly not a bad song. the editor of this video really fucked up the sound near the end though.

  • @hazzardwantcookies: i do like some rock. it's just a personal preference, I guess. I like the musicianship in the original, the bass, the strings, the background vocals and synths. A nice combo of sounds. the arrangement is nice, too.

    what can I say? i prefer this one.

  • pure pwnge

  • The Buggles singer was kinda gay sounding.

  • This song killed the video and radio star.

  • You know what killed this song? The Presidents of the United States of America...

  • great talent explocion only this guys make possible

  • Awesome cover.

  • ...of America.

  • That's no true. The first one is this song but with the The Buggles. 

  • SUCH A HORRIBLE REMAKE OF BUGGLES!

  • yeahh :D

  • it was ok... but the, OH OH was bad...

    i could do better...

  • this version's pretty good..

    not better than the original but alright :)

  • haha stupid non american people. just jealous of the greatest country in the world USA USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • yeah that's usually what ignorant fools say untill you point out how much better our standard of living is then in the US then they usually shut up and go away,

  • america caused everything in this world america is basicly the worst country on this planet u americans ar so full of your selfs fucking inbred fuckers fuck off and no one is jealous of america why would they to be part of the most stupid and fattest nation on the planet !!!

  • oh yea and another thing health insurance i dont think so fuckers UK gets free because we are a more selfless nation and americans just think that all other countrys are poor and america is the strong nation FUCK YOU again!!!!!!! to bad 9/11 didnt destroy new york fully ..

  • @Breyes4224 and ur just ignorant!!!!and we are definitely not the greatest country in the world nor the richest the richest country with the healthiest people is a lil country that got invaded by Iraq called Kuwait people don't have money there they just have gold and more gold and free healthcare and free everything because the country is so small and the national income is billions upon billions i think they deserve the greatest country award

  • This is pretty damn good! Wow, love it :)

  • The cover is vastly superior to the original IMO

    PUSA FTW

  • awesome chorus!

  • harmonization ftw

  • I wasn't serious jeez have you guys ever heard of a tounge n cheek comment holy shit and they say americans r angry?U guys will dislike anything I say no matter what because I'm american If u hate americans so much feel free 2 give back all our inventions cars,electricty,radio,tv,moder­n medicine ect.ect u use everday and to give back all the finacial aid You have recived from us over the years .

  • maybe you should do some research I am not sure that any of those things were invented/discovered by americans

  • @purplengold28 not to bitch but please dont talk about inventions like modern medicine cause to be honest you guys really aint that great in that field of research ...

    but i agree m8 less bitching on youtube.. come on

  • @purplengold28 the car was invented by a Swiss man, electricity wasn't an 'invention' but was seminally researched by an Englishman, Radio was invented by an Englishman, Television was invented by a Scotsman, Modern medicine was chiefly derived from European medical study (which predates the existence of the America you know) and uh, as far as i can tell, the current recession was caused by a collapse in the US sub-prime market. America doesn't give financial aid to europe either. Nice one.

  • @gangsterchronicle

    Besides, chalking up the supposed greatness of a country in modern times shouldn't be reduced to what great inventions were historical produced thereor by inventers' nationalities seem a little ridiculous to me.

    Is the US govt and are US corporations corrupt? In many ways, yes. Does that make the collective American public evil? Of course, not. Find me a country with a supposedly perfectly ethical/rational govt and corporations and I'll show you a fairy tale.

  • @mapscannotcontainme

    Agreed. I was merely pointing out that the claims by an american who posted earlier claiming that America was responsible for the aforementioned inventions as well as purportedly providing millions of (ficticious) dollars of aid to Europe. I am inclined to pin such ignorance on a very particular (and by no means all-encompassing) brand of American patriotism. A number of US citizens seem incapable of seeing the world beyond the United States which is innately problematic.

  • @gangsterchronicle Oh, and the message you are trying to send with the statement, "A number of US citizens seem incapable of seeing the world beyond the United States which is innately problematic." sadly applies to your country as well. =[ Cheers. =]

  • @gangsterchronicle Europeans have the time and money to invent stuff because they do not of large armies that cost a tremendous amount of money because they can count on us to protect them from threats... your welcome.

  • @gangsterchronicle "Modern medicine was chiefly derived from European medical study" That made me lul. That was an ignorant statement.

  • haters.world realtionships r just like high schol u hate on the kid with the finest girlfriend and the dopest ride.LOL!

  • wait what?

    who sang this originally?

    and who did the cover of it? :/

    i like it anywwaays. :D

  • The Buggles- The Age of Plastic is the original

  • i love this song and version so much. idk maybe i'm weird lol. :D

  • I can't thank god enough for americans being stupid, it would be worrying if they had even half a brain!

  • Comment removed

  • thats all you think about, you are a dirty carrot

  • Comment removed

  • patriotism isnt dead yet...but purplengold28 nailed shut the casket of modesty.

  • and john lennon ate at buck rogers with a big mcmuffin

  • lol dude. Did you ever wonder why most of the world detests America? You are so fucking arrogant all the time. And stupid. Take that from a citizen of an allied country.

    You think you are all powerful. Sure, you have lots and lots of resources and people to throw around wars and stuff. But hey, get this, you walking waste of oxygen: just because YOU'D get an orgasm from invading whoever insults you for being stupid, doesn't mean your president would. So stick THAT in YOUR pipe. Bitch.

  • i completely agree with you

  • hell of a good sync job though

  • wtf, isn't this the Radiohead cover?

  • do you really think radiohead can be happy enough for 3 minutes to record this song.

  • it started good but the end sounds a little foggy, but well done.

  • The original version was actually recorded by Bruce Woolley & The Camera Club.

  • nice

  • not bad cant beat the origonal but pertty damn good

  • They used buggles in the video, hmm

  • excellent!!!!!!!!

  • oh yeah!!

  • This is alright but the Buggles' version is better

  • the last part is effed hah

  • Dude this is the Radio head version from "The Wedding Singer" soundtrack... question mark???

  • ehh... trying to edit the old version with the new didn't turn out so well at the end, there....

  • This is an awesome cover (:

  • to TheDarkFrontier: yeah true the oh-a-oh is really actually crap and squeaky

  • great vocals, but the "oh-a-oh" is a bit fucked up haha.

  • @afruas It's actually Radio Head

  • Just because it sounds like the songs' going to end every time they say "video killed the radio star" doesn't make it better. This one may have a faster beat sure, but the original gives me chills every time I hear it.

  • this one is awsome

  • This was the first ever video played on MTV... back then, all they DID was videos!

  • @WaltJake how many people actually believed you?

  • true

  • @WaltJake

    So fuck not.

    The first played was Dire Straits Money for nothing.

    David Bowie was also on the vocals singing "I want my MTV" in the beginning.

  • cool vid, liked how you put this version with the old music vid =)

  • the last bit was fucked lol

  • no this one came out in 1998 the Buggles came out in 1979

  • @Joaquin546 wrong, this is the buggles video

  • super song

  • Dude, quit ranting, it's by the Buggles.. Bruce Woolley was IN the group when the song came out. Bruce wrote most of the music, and Trevor did the lyrics. What's with the hatin'?

  • ur reli sad :L

  • orite calm down :L

  • well the dude from the buggles was a part of that band..

  • Comment removed

  • SHITTT

  • definitely...i cant see why other people dont

  • OH OH!!

  • then MTV whent and killed music. damn them

  • NOT BETTER THAN THE BUGGLES ORIGINAL!!! I am going to guess I am the only person posting here who was watching the first hour MTV went live and watched The Buggles video for the very first time. Trust me, you never forget that crap. But, I do like the P-USA. This is a decent version, and they killed with Lump.

  • wow i love this one WAYY better than the original, but i still love the original 2!!!

  • ah way better then the original.

  • hahaha, its so much better :D

  • i like this one better then the original

  • heard the original first on GTA:VC and loved it ever since xD even keep it on to listen to while playing WoW :D

  • this song was the shit in vice city

  • Very good job!

  • All good until the end, when they repeat the chorus...some kinda glitch every 8 bars.

  • The original is WAYYY better.

    But this isn't bad.

  • honestly i liek this version a bit better than the original

    thier both good,

    but this is the one they used in the credits of the wedding singer, so i heard this version first, but theier both good,
