Bella somiglianza fra "Video Killed The Radio Star" dei Bruce Woolley & The Camera Club (quella dei The Buggles era una cover) e
"Johnny Loves Jenny" dei Chilly

Si, gli autori sono (Bruce Woolley/Trevor Horn/Geoff Downes), ma pare che la prima incione sia di "Bruce Woolley & The Camera Club, almeno cosė riportano in rete, QUI su Wikipedia citano:

The first version was recorded by Woolley & the Camera Club (with Thomas Dolby on keyboards) for his album English Garden, which was a hit in Canada. The Buggles later recorded the song and it reached number one in the UK charts the week of 20 October 1979, the first-ever number one for the Island Records label. It also would top the Australian charts, and made the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States, debuting on 10 November 1979, and peaking at number 40.
