Hey, need some help here for a new project. I’m looking for songs with the word “radio” sung/spoken in the lyrics. You can probably skip the Costello, Wall of Voodoo, R.E.M. ones… but I’d love a range of styles & eras greater than the stuff my music library contains.
BUGGLES “video killed the radio star”
Queen “Radio Gaga”
Mexican Radio… mmm, Wall of Voodoo, methinks.
You know I’m a music junkie…Radio, Radio – Elvis Costello; Radio Sweeheart – Elivs Costello; Radio Nowhere – Bruce Springsteen; Radio Silence – Thomas Dolby; Radio Song – JET; Do You Remember Rock ‘n’ Roll Radio – Ramones; Ghost Radio – Bryan Setzer; God Is in the Radio – QotSA; On the Radio – Regina Specktor; Video Killed the Radio Star (cover) – Ben Folds; Guerilla Radio – Rage Against the Machine; On the Radi0 – Donna Summer; Turn up the Radio – Autograph; AM Radio – Everclear
The movie Radio with Cuba Gooding Jr. Ok, real ones – Ronnie Milsap – Drivin My Life Away, Does American Pie use the word? I think it does. Lady Gaga: Nothing on but the Radio
Florida Georgia Lines’ “Cruise”
WOLD by Harry Chapin
Midnight Radio – Hedwig and the Angry Inch

Above is a terrible song. Below, however, is one of the best songs ever.

Don’t forget another awful one: Starship’s We Built this City.
