I’m not sure if all of these really count, but here’s a few more:

Coheed and Cambria “The End Complete II: Radio Bye Bye”

Nice! Off the top of my head…

The Buggles “Video Killed the Radio Star”

I should have more in my music library, so I’ll add some more later.

Border Radio – The Blasters

I would add Screeching Weasel’s loving tribute “Radio Blast”:

It’s time for a structural change
It’s time for a pipe bomb in the basement
I think it’s time to smash you
Don’t worry about inflation

Also, The Ramones’ “We Want the Airwaves” (which cuts a bit too close to the bone for those in Pacificaland right now).
