Roger had an idea of very snood melodic content, and to be honest, it was called “Radio Ca-Ca before”, and initially it was to deal with the Radio been too old or whatever, and I just sad: I think, you should change the lyrical content, and in fact, we went totally the other way, so, I mean, Radio Ga-Ga – I mean, it’s good, and so, Radio Ca-Ca… we were actually trying to say that video is trying to take over, what’s the radio go on to be?

Lyrics

Radio I'd sit alone and watch your light
My only friend through teenage nights
And everything 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
You've 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

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