Video Killed the Radio Star Review

     In class watching the first MTV which is, "Video Killed the Radio Star," I like the song, because I first heard it when I was kid and now as a young adult. I all was listen to what my parents music and my music. I listen to 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, 20's, and the 21st. Just different Music Artist I like some of my parents and some of Todays. I don't know what it that I like the music Video Killed the Radio Star.
    I didn't know that it was the first music video on MTV. The song is written by Trevor Horn, Geoff Downes in 1978. The track was released as their debut single on September 7, 1979 by Island Records, and is from their first album The Age of Plastic. All the other tracks from the LP, "Video's" Theme was promotion of technology while worrying about its effect. It is number 2 on The Age of Plastic.
     The music video for the "Video Killed the Radio Star," written, directed and edited by Australian Russell Mulcahy, was produced on a budget of 50,000. That is a lot of money for a music video I spect it to be more than that. Russell Muclahy asked a friend of his, who was an aspiring actress, to play a girl who was dressed "in a silver costume and be lowered via wires in  a test tube." There were about 30 takes required for shots of the actress in the tube. The tube falls over in the video, although Muclahy claims it  was not inteneded to be shown in the final edit.
