Write-Up: Uhhgh! /:( Another annoying ranking placement! Two things 'bugged' me here, first the fact that I can't rank the Buggles version here and second the fact that I CAN'T RANK THE BUGGLES version here!!! Like wtf, I seriously had no idea that they were not the original performers of this song. It's like everything I knew about my childhood is all wrong lol. I made it my entire life believing that these dudes were the fathers of New Wave so imagine my surprise when I completed my research in this ranking to find out that they are total frauds! :( You know... I think I'll continue the rest of my life making pretend this version does not exist. No offense Bruce Woolley. The Buggles at least were know for the very first MTV music video appearance. Here is what I'd have given The Buggles version anyway: [9.2][9.3][8.1][10.3][8.1][8.1][8.1] = [61.2] = [8.742] ...which would have placed it around 300th in the ranking.
Best Version IMO: The Buggles - The Age Of Plastic - 1980
