A 2004 Live Performance of ‘Video Killed the Radio Star’ Captured in Brilliant High Definition Video

Video Killed the Radio Star

The Buggles, a British band whose 1978 song “Video Killed the Radio Star” kicked off the MTV revolution in the United States at 12:01 AM on August 1, 1981, performed a live version of the song in 2004 to a packed audience attending the Prince’s Trust Concert at the Wembley Arena. The concert was captured on very early HD video, which brilliantly brought the performance to life.
