Video killed the Radio Star ???

"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.
You were the first one.
You were the last one.

 
Video killed the radio star.
Video killed the radio star."

I don't why the Buggles wrote this one , but the Radio Star is definitely coming back on 93.9 FM. Whoever thought there was life after All India Radio. Whoever thought there was listening beyond `Jayamala Karikaram' and Vividh Bharati, with listeners only from Jumri Thalaya

I was never fond of RADIO , but there is NO WAY OUT when they play the disastrous soaps. The TV is really getting on my nerves...Firstly these serials and I HAD TO WATCH A FEW MATCHES OF EURO 2004 with a Hindi commentary where my ' Hindi ' was the culprit more than the commentaries.

(When listening to Radio , there are a few occasions where I just love them , especially when they take on Bappi Lahiri and the nite they play English Classics)

With that I have a few warnings that are necessary to make my life easier,

Ladies of the Radio Generation : My opinions are just my perspectives about radio have nothing against Amin Sayani.

To my cousin from Mumbai: Do NOT send me an analysis report on Mumbai FM Vs. Pune FM

Bappi Lahiri Fans: (Are there any ?) If yes , You suck.
