The Plastic Age. Clean, Clean. Excerpts From 'The Age of Plastic'.
Esskayess from Dallas, TxSo what killed the video star? Zappy from Geelong, AustraliaI still think their second song which was the title song from the album, "Living in the plastic age" should have been much bigger. The video was very inventive for its time. Russell Mulcahey was a freakin genius who understood long before most the power of the music video. Phil from Perth, AustraliaI was lead to belive that that video killed the radio star was about Kenny Everit. He was a radio star but his video show was the end (death) of his career. SO video killed the radio star. Pete from Nowra, Australiai host a retro night here in Australia, when i play this song, the crowd looooove it
