This song should be the anthem for the Space opera era (20s to 40's) of Science Fiction. Apart from Metropolis it mentions Orson Welles' Version of War of the Worlds (Performed by the Mercury Theatre!), it was released in Orwell's dystopian year of 1984, the video has children in Gas masks, echoing the future Doctor Who story The Empty Child, and Queen has done the soundtrack for the recent Flash Gordon movie (and there is a rocketship from the film seen in the video).

Citation needed. None of the books and films you mention are space opera ... except Flash Gordon, which as far as I can tell has nothing to do with this song. JöG ( talk) 20:19, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
Not entirely pop! I'd say pop rock, so that is what I will change it to. Forgot to sign my name. 74.100.0.150 13:48, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
Image:Radiogaga.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot 23:59, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Fact tag added. Someone please add a reference to cover the rumor statement (or the rest of the section for that matter).

I've listened to the song and is trully electronic song, there's only rock mentioned on genres section -- 82.139.5.13 ( talk) 19:42, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
A fragment from article: ""The inspiration for this song came when Roger Taylor heard his son utter the words "radio ca-ca" while listening to a bad song on the radio while they were in Los Angeles. After hearing the phrase, Taylor began writing the song when he locked himself in a room with a Roland Jupiter 8 and a drum machine"". Roland Jupiter 8 is synthesizer, and he used the synthesizer. Synthesizer and drum machine are both common instruments in electronic rock as well as New Wave. -- 82.139.5.13 ( talk) 19:49, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
The external links contain a link to the viral video "Radio Ga Ga performed by Prisoners in the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitational Centre" on YouTube. Unless this use of the song is transformative enough to be fair use (I don't think it is), or the detention centre licensed the song for this purpose (more possible), it falls under WP:ELNEVER since the upload is a copyright violation. Can anyone verify whether Cebu acquired rights to the track that permit their performance and YouTube upload? If not, please remove it. Dcoetzee 12:40, 20 December 2012 (UTC)
Both "Pop rock" and "arena rock" are treated the same way by "Uncensored On the Record". That's why they should be kept together instead of cherrypicking "pop rock" and ignoring "stadium rock" (that I already saw, just like arena rock, in several infoboxes before editing this article).
