"The plastic age" - The Buggles
#Buggles
A small thing but... this is such a clean sound. I don't know what part of my liking this is my general musical tastes and how much is flavored by nostalgia, but this makes me happy.

I never particularly warmed to "Video Killed The Radio Star", but at some point my brother convinced me to listen to the whole album, and I was won over. (I recently found out that there were more songs from the album with videos, but this is not one of them, alas.)
Video Mastodon killed the Radio Twitter Star
I found you on the internet back in twenty-oh-nine
Lying awake, intently scrolling the timeline
If I was young, it didn't stop you coming through
Oh-a, oh-a
You took the credit for your micro-blogging format
Rewritten by machine on new technology <-- THIS LINE IS IN THE ORIGINAL LYRICS I DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TO SNEAK GROK IN BY THE BACK DOOR!
And now I understand the problems you could see <-- AND THIS ONE!
[Pre-Chorus: Trevor Horn, Debi Doss & Linda Jardim]
Oh-a, oh-a
I met your children
Oh-a, oh-a
What did you tell them?
[Chorus: Trevor Horn, Debi Doss & Linda Jardim]
Mastodon killed the Twitter poster
Mastodon killed the Twitter poster
Fedi came and broke your heart
Oh-a-a-a-oh
Ab dem 01. Januar 2026 werden beim #Musiksender #MTV keine #Videos mehr ausgestrahlt. Damit geht eine Ära zu Ende - über #Jahrzehnte drehte sich hier fast alles um #Stars und ihre #Songs...
Durch MTV etablierten sich #Musikvideos zur eigenen #Kunstform. Am 1. August 1981 ging der Sender an den Start - passend dazu war der erste #Clip der gespielt wurde "#Video_killed_the_Radio_Star" von der Band #Buggles.

BUGGLES
The Age Of Plastic
1980 Canada pressing
Boundless love for this masterpiece of a #newwave #synthpop album.
Those who are fans of the genre (particularly the #80s era), know that this album is far more than “Video Killed The Radio Star”.
Front to back, brimming with fun bangers.

It’s been a bit of a day, so I have an old familiar and favourite on the record player - ‘The Age of Plastic’ by Buggles. This album really brings me joy. ♥️

🎵 Video killed the radio star
"They took the credit for your second symphony
Rewritten by machine on new technology

- kind of hits different nowadays, doesn't it?
Check below for one of the best pop songs ever AND bonus baby Hans Zimmer trying not to laugh into camera:

La science-fiction est partout. Je réécoute LA chanson pop de mes 16 ans et, curieux, je vais lire son entrée Wikipedia où je découvre qu'elle s'inspire d'une nouvelle de JG Ballard, "Le vide-sons"/"Le débruiteur". 😲

Love this song and still do. Perhaps though it's time for an update, something like "Streaming Killed The Music Completely?"
