'Radio gaga' was released in 1984, two years after their last single release. It was unusual for a popular band like Queen to be away from the scene for such a long time back then, and so 'Radio gaga' was some kind of comeback single. The song was a commentary on television overtaking radio's popularity and how one would listen to radio for a favorite comedy, drama, or sci-fi program. It also pertained to the advent of the music video and MTV.The single was a big success worldwide, reaching number 1 all over Europe and becoming a number 3 hit in Australia. In the UK, the single reached number 2 and in the USA, the single peaked at number 16.
