Cal Vid's video: Queen Radio Ga Ga

"Radio Ga Ga" is performed by Queen. Recorded by the British rock band and written by their drummer Roger Taylor, the song was released as a single. It was included as the opening track on the album The Works and is also featured on the band's compilation albums Greatest Hits II and Classic Queen. The song, which makes a nostalgic refence of the radio format, was a worldwide success for the band, reaching number one in 19 countries, number two on the UK Singles Chart and the Australian Kent Music Report and number 16 on the US Billboard Hot 100, becoming the band's final original single to reach the US top 40 in Freddie Mercury's lifetime on that chart (not counting their live performance with George Michael on Somebody to Love at whereas their follow-up singles would give them frequent top 40 appearances on the Mainstream Rock chart). Queen performed the song at every concert from 1984 to their last concert with lead singer Freddie Mercury in 1986, including their performance at Live Aid in 1985.
