Radio Ga Ga
Taylor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My only friend through teenage nights
cnd everything I had to know
I heard it on my radio
You gave them all those old time stars
Through wars of worlds invaded by Mars
You made 'em laugh, you made 'em cry
You made us feel like we could fly (radio)
c backdrop for the girls and boys
Who just don't know, or just don't care
cnd just complain when you're not there
You had your time, you had the power
You've yet to have your finest hour
Radio (radio)
cll we hear is radio ga ga
Radio goo goo
Radio ga ga
cll we hear is radio ga ga
Radio blah blah
Radio, what's new?
Radio, someone still loves you
We watch the shows, we watch the stars
On videos for hours and hours
We hardly need to use our ears
How music changes through the years
Let's hope you never leave, old friend
Like all good things, on you we depend
So stick around, 'cause we might miss you
When we grow tired of all this visual
You had your time, you had the power
You've yet to have your finest hour
Radio (radio)
cll we hear is radio ga ga
Radio goo goo
Radio ga ga
cll we hear is radio ga ga

In Taylor's song "Radio Ga Ga," the lyrics express a sense of nostalgia and longing for the power and influence of radio. The opening lines, "I'd sit alone and watch your light, My only friend through teenage nights," suggest a deep connection and reliance on the radio during the formative years. The radio served as a source of information, entertainment, and emotional connection, being the means through which the singer "heard it all."
The song pays tribute to the radio's ability to captivate and engage listeners, as evidenced by the lines, "You made 'em laugh, you made 'em cry, You made us feel like we could fly." It highlights how the radio became a companion and a lifeline, transporting individuals to different worlds and emotions. However, as technology evolved and visual mediums emerged, the radio began to lose its prominence. The lyrics caution against relegating the radio to background noise and not appreciating its significance, urging the listeners to recognize its value.
The chorus, "Radio ga ga, Radio goo goo, Radio blah blah, Radio, what's new? Someone still loves you," conveys a plea for the continued relevance and importance of radio in a visually-dominated world. It emphasizes that despite the changes, there are still those who cherish the power and influence of the radio.
Line by Line Meaning
I'd sit alone and watch your light
I would sit by myself and admire your presence
My only friend through teenage nights
The only companionship I had during my teenage years
And everything I had to know, I heard it on my radio
All the knowledge and information I needed, I obtained from listening to the radio
You gave them all those old time stars
You presented the audience with legendary performers of the past
Through wars of worlds invaded by Mars
Even in times of fictional interplanetary conflicts, you provided entertainment
You made 'em laugh, you made 'em cry
You brought joy and emotions to your audience
You made us feel like we could fly (radio)
Through your music, you made us experience unbounded freedom and possibility
So don't become some background noise
Do not become irrelevant or disregarded
A backdrop for the girls and boys
A mere setting for the young individuals
Who just don't know, or just don't care
Those who are ignorant or indifferent
And just complain when you're not there
And only complain when you are absent
You had your time, you had the power
You had your moment of dominance and influence
You've yet to have your finest hour
However, your ultimate peak is still to come
All we hear is radio ga ga
All we perceive is the repetitiveness and insignificance of the radio
Radio goo goo
Radio's nonsensical chatter
Radio ga ga
Radio's senseless babble
All we hear is radio ga ga
All we are exposed to is the mindless noise of the radio
Radio blah blah
Radio's monotonous prattle
Radio, what's new?
Radio, what groundbreaking developments do you offer?
Someone still loves you
There are still individuals who hold affection for you
We watch the shows, we watch the stars
We observe television programs and famous personalities
On videos for hours and hours
For countless hours, we deviate our attention to videos
We hardly need to use our ears
We hardly rely on our auditory senses
How music changes through the years
We witness the evolution of music as time passes
Let's hope you never leave, old friend
We sincerely wish for your enduring presence, dear companion
Like all good things, on you we depend
Just like we rely on all valuable entities, we depend on you
So stick around, 'cause we might miss you
Therefore, remain present, as there is a possibility of us longing for you
When we grow tired of all this visual
When we become weary of the overwhelming visual stimulation
Someone still loves you
There are still individuals who hold affection for you
Radio ga ga (radio ga ga)
The nonsensical and mindless chatter of the radio
Radio ga ga (radio ga ga)
The senseless and meaningless babble of the radio
Radio ga ga (radio ga ga)
The inane and hollow noise of the radio
You had your time, you had the power
You had your moment of dominance and influence
You've yet to have your finest hour
However, your ultimate peak is still to come
All we hear is radio ga ga
All we perceive is the repetitiveness and insignificance of the radio
Radio goo goo
Radio's nonsensical chatter

Radio's senseless babble
All we hear is radio ga ga
All we are exposed to is the mindless noise of the radio

Roger’s voice is criminally underrated
RuunteKnuut
I've heard so many people say that so I don't think it's true
The Respected Lex
He's similar to Rod Stewart, but Queen.
Chris James
Do you actually believe that. Because Roger is one of the most famous vocalists of the 70s/80s 😂😭🥱
CoolManMark
I love what he sings too we are all worthless zombies 😂
David J Meek
Its never been under-rated, its always been the heart of Queen
John Cole
A Drummer with a better singing voice than most lead singers.
Lee Robson
I saw Roger in Bath on Monday. I nearly fell off the circle balcony when I heard him singing. Why the hell is Adam Lambert still poncing about with Queen when this guy is real rock and roll and not musical theatre?
When Warren starting singing Freddie’s intro to Prime Jive I thought Mercury had been reincarnated.
And Rog’s voice is still amazing. 72 years old. Phenomenal.
Joseph Woodbury
@Lee Robson I have been wondering the same thing. I'm like "Dudes! You have a singer right behind you, and you pick Adam Lambert? Really?!
einShawn
@Joseph Woodbury theoretically they have 2 singers, Brian and Roger so no need for Adam
