Queen – Radio Ga Ga lyrics

Words and music by roger taylor

Radio I'd sit alone and watch your light
My only friend through teenage nights
And evrything I had to know
I heard it on my radio

You gave them all those old time stars
Through wars of worlds - invaded by mars
You made em laugh - you made em cry
You made us feel like we could fly
Radio

So don't become some background noise
A backdrop for the girls and boys
Who just don't know or just don't care
And just complain when you're not there
You had your time you had the power
Youve yet to have your finest hour
Radio

All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio goo goo
Radio ga ga
All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio blah blah
Radio what's new?
Radio someone still loves you

We watch the shows - we watch the stars
On videos for hours and hours
We hardly need to use our ears
How music changes through the years

Lets hope you never leave old friend
Like all good things on you we depend
So stick around cos we might miss you
When we grow tired of all this visual
You had your time you had the power
Youve yet to have your finest hour
Radio

All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio goo goo
Radio ga ga
All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio goo goo
Radio ga ga
All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio blah blah
Radio what's new?
Someone still loves you

Radio ga ga
Radio ga ga
Radio ga ga
Radio

You had your time you had the power
Youve yet to have your finest hour
Radio

Queen "Radio Ga Ga" was published in the year 1984, the era where videos were preferred more than radio, the song tells us that after so many years of only listening to the radio now that we have got the convenience of watching the video instead of only song, the writer remembers how he and everyone enjoyed listening to the radio. He portrays his feelings towards the radio with this song and tells it that there is still someone that love radio.
He even prays that the radio would never perish out of the world, the writer then criticizes the video, and you still be there because they will all come to you when everyone is going to get tired off these videos. The writer when saying.
"Radio Gaga.
Radio goo.
Radio blah"
He means that he hears every nonsense that how old is the radio and no one watches it but still he love it.
The irony in this song was that this song was a video song.

He also says to the radio to not become a backdrop for the next generation, you had the time when people used you but still there is still your finest hour to come, you showed them all types of shows like "Wars of Worlds", you made the audience laugh, cry and made them feel that they flew in sky high.
