Song of the Day: Radar Love

Radar Love by Golden Earring. Released in 1973 on the band’s ninth studio album, Moontan. I know very little about Golden Earring. I’m about positive Radar Love is the only song I know by them and I also had no clue that the band was from the Netherlands. But that also somewhat makes sense, because I would’ve thought they were a one hit wonder, which is probably the case in the US, but they had put out 9 studio albums by the time this song had come out. And I’m sure they had more after, so it’s sounds like they were a lot bigger in Europe. But Radar Love is a jam and that why it made it to #13 on the US charts and made it in the top ten in the UK, Germany, Australia, and obviously went #1 in the Netherlands.
