So fantastic that a band from The Hague keeps another band from The Hague alive…such a Great Song….giving me the “chills “…maybe because I am a “Hagenees” ! 🙏🔥Keep the Golden Earring Alive!
Di-rect is one of the best bands in The Netherlands. They and the Golden Earring are from the same city The Hague. Di-rect's latest single 'Through the looking glass' is fantastic. Sounds a lot as The War on Drugs. Check it out.
Radar Love is only one of the best rock songs ever written!!! Aired in the 70's and still going strong now!!! Freakin' awesome!!! Did I already state that this song is amazing??!!! Love, love, love this song...whether it is played by Golden Earring or now by Di-Rect! A good song will always be a good song!!! You see all the musicians enjoy themselves as they are slaying their instruments!! Chapeau Barry Hay, Cesar Zuiderwijk, George Kooymans and of course legend Rinus Gerritsen!!!
Marcel, the lead singer of Di-rect lived in my street a couple of years ago(ive moved now) he was a really nice dude and He and my mom talked a lot bcs they saw eachother a lot in grocerystores etc. He is an awesome dude, very down to earth.
Di-rect does amazing covers and from what radio stations say they often do them in record time, like when asked to do a cover of something in the top ten, they'll be there in the studio doing a unbelievable version that will be as good or better than the original. They show great respect to the classics like this too and don't just change everything around. And the songs they do are complicated, it's their professional skill that makes it sound so smooth yet also with feeling. There are many many famous bands that could not copy that about them.
radio 10 is my favorite dutch radiostation, specially between 4 pm and 7 pm weekdays. direct is a long time dutch band going for at least 22 years strong now. seems like a great combo.
They also performed it live at VVAL in cooperation with Davina Michelle and Danny Vera, I was there 2 weeks ago. Awesome. th-cam.com/video/QMYZruDOniE/w-d-xo.html
Everybody in the Netherlands was shocked to hear that George Kooymans, one of the founders of Golden Earring and gitarist, has been struck by the terrible disease A.L.S. (Amyotrofische Laterale Sclerose) which breaks down your muscle capability very slowly. We wish George, his family and friends and the band members strength and sympathy during those difficult times.
I love the one from the Golden Earring but this one is insanely (is that a word?) good. Yes you can hate this song. Tickets for driving too fast....(2x).
About the only band who can actually do a good job and being an Earing fan that's saying a lot! It's not a simple copy it is making their own version. They are a great band with good songs of their own. And from the same town as G.E. You should check them out and the hidden gem Anouk too.

Also, Spike van Soest, got the original guitar from his father in law, Barry Hay! A few years ago. That must be very amazing to have!
Spike van Zoest! ;-)
Spike van Zoest, the guitarist is actualy married to Bella Hay, Barry Hay's daughter

Never thought that Di-rect could perform Radar Love that good.😀👍
Heard this live last week....dont forget they are playing this in the morning, like 8 or 8.30 am or something!

Never held my breath for such a long time. Just forgot breathing. Dang that was something different. Out of this world. Thanks
