Wow-- weird coincidence-- I almost posted a Golden Earring vid today as well-- it was going to be either this one or "Twilight Zone." I heard them on Sirius Satellite radio on the way to work today-- their very first hit, from 1966, "Daddy Buy Me a Girl."
Aren't they due for a hit soon? Seems they have one every decade or two.
Never heard their music, though know the name. Weird name - euphemism?
Thanks for this, man. "Radar Love" is one of my favorite songs. The perfect driving song.
Hi Erik,
Well, after a whole lot of stuff . . . death, illness, graduations, weddings, MOVING!!!! I am FINALLY back on line as of this VERY moment! Hooray! I have MISSED it sooooo much!I will be doing a lot of catching up - I feel like I have been completely out of touch by not being connected to the World Wide Web! xo Pythia
So, Erik, would you considered these guys a "one-hit" wonder band? I trying to think of other songs they did and coming up blank.
I have been thinking about Golden Earring too! Although like Johnny I was thinking about "Twilight Zone", which is one of my all time favorites.
Nice Post!
