"Video Killed the Radio Star" by The Buggles is featured on Just Dance 3.
Prior to the song’s debut on Just Dance 3, it had been planned to be released in Just Dance 2 as a downloadable track, but it was never released and eventually postponed.[2][3]
Appearance of the Dancer[]
The dancer is a man with a cathode-ray tube television screen over his head. He wears a green jacket which covers a pink shirt and a white necktie. He is also wearing a pair of green pants, and a pair of pink shoes. His glove is deep magenta-fuchsia. Whenever he swipes his hands over the screen, the following maps from Just Dance appear on the TV.
In the remake, the dancer’s wardrobe remains unchanged, but its color scheme is more saturated.
Background[]
This section is a stub. You can help by adding to it.
The routine takes place in a greenish valley. On the floor, which is reflective, there are several old-fashioned TVs piled up in stacks, with some of them being green and others being purple. In the background, there are old radios, mountains with a gradient that goes from green to purple, and a signal tower. There is also a rainbow in front of an aqua green sky.
Gold Moves[]
There are 3 Gold Moves in this routine:
Gold Moves 1 and 2: Clap your forearms slightly. It is done the first time walking to the left, and the second time walking to the right.
Gold Move 3: Spread your arms one by one to the right and left.

Trivia[]
- When the coach raises both his hands, the Fame coach appears on the screen and does the same move.
- The antennas on the coach’s TV mask appear to be glitchy, as they tend to disappear and reappear very often.
- The face displayed on the TV screen is glitchy, too, because it tends to be shaky and move away from the middle.
- Moreover, when the coach moves his hands near the screen, it turns partially purple.
- The face displayed on the TV screen is glitchy, too, because it tends to be shaky and move away from the middle.
- In the Just Dance 3 menu icon square, the screen on the TV mask is a teal-ish color instead of blue, and the top of the jacket (where the tie is visible) seems to have a warp-like effect on it. Both of these were fixed in the remade square.
- Although Video Killed the Radio Star was released in 1979, the routine is featured in the "Just 80’s" playlist in Just Dance 3. This was also the case with I Was Made For Lovin’ You.
- However, the song was made near the 80’s. Perhaps this was the deciding factor which put the song in the playlist.
- The pictogram for Gold Move 2 incorrectly tells the player to turn the body to the right and put the left leg in front while the coach turns only his head to the right.
- In the Xbox 360 version, three pictograms slide at different speeds.
- The dancer’s Just Dance 2015 avatar is used by a lot of Just Dance VIPs.
- In the remake, the top of the TV mask sometimes glitches to white.
- A sticker of the song’s TVs, as well as the Spectronizer coaches, can be unlocked in Just Dance 2020 by dancing to The Time (Dirty Bit) (Extreme Version) three times.
- In the PS3 version, when "You were the last one" was sung, it is highlighted in pink (which only happens when sung by female singers), even though it was sung by a male.
