  • Note: Click "Show More" for lyrics. Golden Earring are a Dutch rock band, founded in 1961 in The Hague as the Golden Earrings (the 's' was dropped in 1969). They had international chart success with the songs "Radar Love" in 1973, "Twilight Zone" in 1982, and "When The Lady Smiles" in 1984. Current members of Golden Earring are Barry Hay (vocals, guitar, flute and saxophone, member since 1968), George Kooymans (vocals and guitar, founder of band), Rinus Gerritsen (bass and keyboard, founding member), and Cesar Zuiderwijk (drums and percussion, member since 1970). Golden Earring have sold millions of albums worldwide, and they are one of the longest existing rock bands in the world that are still performing today in the same line up.
    Radar Love (B. Hay / G. Kooymans)
    I've been drivin' all night, my hand's wet on the wheel
    There's a voice in my head that drives my heel
    It's my baby callin', says I need you here
    And it's half past four and I'm shifting gear
    When she's lonely and the longing gets too much
    She sends a cable comin' in from above
    We don't need no phone at all
    We've got a thing that's called radar love
    We've got a wave in the air, radar love
    The radio's playing some forgotten song
    Brenda Lee's "Coming On Strong"
    The road has got me hypnotized
    And I'm speeding into a new sunrise
    When I get lonely, and I'm sure I've had enough
    She sends her comfort, comin' in from above
    Don't need no radio at all
    We've got a thing that's called radar love
    We've got a line in the sky, radar love
    No more speed, I'm almost there
    Gotta keep cool now, gotta take care
    Last car to pass, here I go
    And the line of cars drove down real slow
    And the radio played that forgotten song
    Brenda Lee's "Coming On Strong"
    And the newsman sang his same song
    Ah, one more radar lover's gone
    When I'm feeling lonely and I'm sure I've had enough
    She sends the comfort coming in from above
    Don't need no radio at all
    We got a thing that's called radar love
    We got a line in the sky
    We got a thing that's called radar love
    We got a thing that's called... radar love

    I'm 58. My favorite Cousin, Diane, back in the 1970's was a little bit older than me so she used to get me alcohol and we hung out a few times and she was always playing Radar Love on her 8 Track Player.in her car. Well, my cousin died shortly thereafter in a Motorcycle accident, and since then, every time I here Radar Love, I think of her. She was so Cool... almost Angelic. Today, Diane's Mother, my Aunt Molly passed away at 88 years old. Aunt Molly was the most religious person that I have ever known, and went to Church most every day for the last 70+ Years to pray for her daughter Diane. Today, I picture their Reunion in Heavern hugging and singing and dancing together to Radar Love. Bless my Cousin Diane and my Aunt Molly in their Reunion in Heaven. I Love You Both!!!

      Same on every video of a legendary song. Until people have heard the song a hundred times, and connect it with a time or incident in their lives, it’s just “the new song”. There’s a performance of AC/DC performing “Highway to Hell” live before it’s release, and people snooze through it. Now that the song is an icon, they go nuts.

    Now, THAT, boys and girls, is how a great rock band plays a terrific song - exceptionally tight instrumentally, singer with great moves and physical gestures, and a song that tells a story with a slow developing beginning, rocking middle, and crescendo of an ending. They were truly firing on all cylinders! I mean, how many times have we heard this only classic rock radio - and yet here we all are still digging it! And it's almost 50 YEARS ago! Man, I was just 15 years old - but still rocking now (OK, God can you take your finger off the FF button on the time machine now, LOL).

The music was great the clubs were great concerts were great Bush parties were great. What happened? It's a super stellar nightmare now feels like a Global toilet. People got too rich there should have been a cap to how wealthy one could be. Now jerkoffs and goofs have reduced it all to pure misery full of neurotic psychotic germaphobes that come unglued if you dont recognize and affirm they are a snail and their pronouns are slime and slther. Tge president runs the country from his basement in his sweats while his stand in goes around eatubgvice cream and fallungvoff bikes. They are lying about over population they are lying about climate engineering one small group controls the whole world its depressing and disgusting.

Give people that drive and desire to succeed but no one needs over 10 million its absurd. And politicians should not be lobbied and bought they should remain for the good of everyone not fanatic psychotic nutjobs I thot the coast was supposed to be under water by now that's what they kept saying!!!!

    No better time than the early 70’s to grow up with music! 16 in ‘73 and we had so many artists performing on the same day and usually same stage at fairgrounds and stadiums. All day events that started early and ended late. No drama, no egos just great performers and musicians laying the groundwork for what has become the greatest generation of music that will never be duplicated. The music from 50-60 years ago is still relevant and impactful today and it will be in another 50 years. There are very few real talented musicians today and the crap that gets put out is not music, it’s a product. It’s as manufactured as much as the interchangeable person delivering it is.

My wife and I went to live in Brugge (Bruges as we English say/write it) for almost 5 years, and I couldn't believe it when the dad of one of the (many!) bars we frequented said he knew the band well and was particular friends with the drummer - you cant believe how loud we used to play this track in his bar!!!!!
