We didn't have computers back then. You only had the voice God gave you. The bands back then had to sound good on stage without any voice manipulation.

[@sarge4455]

True

[@gregvergara7596]

Unfortunately, it was common back then for bands to appear on television shows, like the one in this video, lip syncing over the studio track. Not saying Golden Earing couldn't bring it live, they could. I'm just not a fan of the lip sync.

[@gdj6298]

Right no computers, but we did have electronic assistance even in the 60's. Ever listen that echo sound by Petula Clark ?

Right, but many Rock bands didn't sound that good onstage, that's why the video has the studio version playing over the top of it, Einstein

[@CharCanuck14]

Just a few bits of trivia: That is Barry Hay's (lead singer) real hair.....no perm. Golden Earring started in the 60's and they officially disbanded in February 2021. Yes, they've been around that long! The reason for the disbanding was that George Kooymans (lead guitar) has been diagnosed with ALS (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) which gradually wastes away muscles. Really sad news.

@Glenn Smith - Not sure if you like remakes but White Lion did this one in 1987. If you do listen to it I hope you think that they did it justice.

Saw them live in 2019 together with my Dad (then 83 it was his wish to see them again), they where rocking it. The band has been together for 60 years 1961-2021. Sadly George the guitarist was diagnosed with ALS the end of 2020, which made the other members decide to brake up the band. But what an achievement 60 years together.

"Radio playin' that forgotten song," indeed. So many memories wrapped up in this, including driving into a new sunrise trying to get back to base before my leave expired; all while this song was on. In the 70's Frisbee sports was big and I was deep into it going into the army. Once, several of my team (including our squad sergeants and Lt.) were on the parade ground playing Frisbee on a cool but sunny Saturday morning. We had those huge but great sounding portable stereos (Ghetto Blaster) and one of the guys had one on playing rock while we were throwing disks. This song came on and suddenly everyone was throwing, making huge and incredible throws and catches. All of the moves we could muster while still being on target. My favorite was throwing over a guys head to have him turn around as it returned and catching it. It was like this song motivated us and it was always a welcome companion on the backside of a 20 hour drive. Like I said, a lot of memories and your song choices is was brought me to your channel.

[@blodekont5458]

Just stumbled on your reaction watching Golden Earring clips. Your reaction is truyly unbiased, and honest, thanks for that. GLobally underrated band, THEY where the the ones opening shows for Led Zeppelin when these went on their first USA Tour, Golden Earring was doing their 4th. They been around before Rolling Stones, their first no1 hit was not getting 1 beacuse of The Beatles. Had Aerosmith and KISS opening for them. Jimi Hendrix personally asked Rinus Gerritsen, the bassplayer to come play for him. Later The Who asked their drummer, Cesar Zuiderwijk to become The Who's drummer. Everybody thought they where from the USA, singer sounds American, but they are from The Netherlands. Guitarplayer George Kooymans founder of the band, together with bassplayer Rinus founded the band when they where just 12 years old. They oficcially disbanded when I believe end of last year, George was diagnosed with ALS-Disease

[@BlackDoveNYC]

I love the disco era but I agree there was a whole different world that came before. I mostly think of the singer-songwriter era. Very heavy on the California (especially southern) vibe. Also I think of the rock, particularly punk, during the disco era. Hip hop started during the disco era too and all of it was going down in New York. What a time.

Their song, Twilight Zone, came out around 1982 or 1983. My middle son was born in 1998, and it's his favorite song. Of all the songs in the world, Twilight Zone is what does it for him. Radar Love was inescapable when it came out. I was a kid, but I remember it was always on the radio. Always, and no one complained.

[@Flameblade69]

I was born in ‘73 as well and my friend our generation had THE BEST music ever. We had 70s, 80s & 90s. Every every style, every race, every sex we had blues, rock, rap, hip hop, r&b, metal. We had all female bands etc. You name it we had it and rocked it all. Whatever mood you were in there was music for it. There was talent needed back then. Those of us who play instruments were introduced by these bands. When we heard an awesome guitar solo it inspired us to learn it. Even young kids today cover these old songs because they were awesome. Nowadays it’s a music machine w no guitars, no intros , guitar solos, drum solos etc. the beat starts and the singing and it’s over. We had black groups w awesome music and dance music, we had white bands, Hispanic bands etc and we all listened to it. There were black men that sang the blues and we had white men that sang the blues. No one cornered the music market so to speak. There were bands that were blended. Take The Band for instance. They had a song called “The Weight”. They did a show that featured a black band called The Staples Singers and let me tell you if you want a soulful song in a 70s vibe hit it up. We had Hootie and The Blowfish which featured a black front man. We didn’t get bent out of shape over race issues. It was music. We could all be one while listening to music. Nowadays it seems it’s one or the other which is a shame. Love your reactions my friend. Keep em coming. .

This is one of my favorite songs. This video is the single version of around 5:00 minutes. The album versions is 6:26, and that missing minute and a half adds a LOT of dynamics with a low, slow, smooth interlude before it picks back up. That's the part where you realize how bad you were speeding so you can back it off. Then it kicks back in and you speed worse than you were before! Headphones are a must on this one.

Great! This was an old broadcasting from German Television, a show for the teens called "Disco". They had lots of rockbands AND disco-acts from that era doing playback or sometimes live performances. Brings back strange memories.

Yeah, that bass really drives this tune.

Guy, all these people got a real beat going on. 🥁🥁🥁🎸🎸🎸🎸🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶 off the wall good. Thank you 👍🥰

[@bazzer124]

I suggest you follow this up with Golden Earring's "Twilight Zone." Unlike this tune, it is much grittier and down and dirty. I think you'll dig it. Oh, and don't forget "Lazy." Cheers, bruv....

When the lady smiles, this song was even banned because of a scene with a nun.

I was born in 1963 and I've loved these guys since they came out when I was 10, I'm the youngest of 6 kids and I grew up loving the music of this era

[@msjesusfreak62]

I always loved the bass in this song!!

[@susyd2776]

So thrilled you love this they are one tight amazing bunch of Nederlander guys who are also friends to the end.

[@dess8287]

Definitely need to react to *Golden Earrings* song *Twilight Zone.* Then you just might wanna throw in *Flirting With Disaster* by *Molly Hatchet.* But don't listen to it while driving because you might get a speeding ticket lol. Love Peace and Happiness Y'all !!

[@gbaumessr.8435]

I'm 60 and I can say that we grew up with the best bands. It's great to see these guys "discover"what we already know is great music

[@jagdpanther6327]

"Boogie no more " kicks ass .

[@70CadillacMan]

The ultimate driving song.

[@unklebacon44]

Road trip music!! You need songs like this on a long drive.

[@blacklight4460]

This played on pop and rock radio stations. Still fresh!

[@bryanforis1839]

When I first heard this you get goosebumps there very good music great

[@BibleBikerChurch]

Pastor Fred here. I love your reactions!!! I am a musician, and played for a church band a few years ago that would play this song before service to call people in to get ready!! Freedom Biker Church Clayton NC!!! So much fun....

[@speed6725]

Good ‘ol classic rock. Real instruments, real vocals. No auto tune. Straight up talent.

[@oldguydj7281]

I know i requested this after seeing you review on Ram Jam. Ya this song has gotten me 3 speeding tickets. Nice review brother.

[@stormy8207]

Yes. Watch the accelerator:) yes there were psychadelics everywhere. Discotek was the original name for a dance hall. "Disco" music became a separate thing.

[@daleervin816]

I was a Senior in High School when this came out in 1973.. talk about rockin' - out... this was the song of the year.

[@NachoMamaNow]

I'm so glad I was alive then. This is MUSIC not that overproduced autotuned noise now. You had to have a voice and talent.

[@teszik]

Proud of this dutch rockband!
