Oh, wah-oh!
I have seven, yes SEVEN, distinctly different versions of Video Killed the Radio Star in my iTunes library.
The original, by The Buggles.
Remakes by The Presidents of the United States of America, Erasure and the Ben Folds Five.
And 3 different version by Geoff Downes, the original co-author and keyboard player. One with vocals, and two instrumentals.
Guess I really don’t have a point… just think it’s cool. 🙂
In my mind and in my car,
We can’t rewind we’ve gone too far….
Here’s Geoff playing it when I saw him live last year.

Nice post. Good Memories. I’d love to learn to play that intro piano part for Video Killed The Radio Star.
