Radar Love

It was pretty wacked how this euro-trash band captured the American drive-fast-on-bennies crowd back in the day.

Radar Love was a veritable anthem among long distance truckers and other folks who had to get far away soon.

A quarter century later, here's what I can't figure out;

An audio of Golden Earring has had three and a half million views.

An actual live video of the band performing their biggest hit in their prime has barely a quarter million views.

I think the take-away is that long-distance truckers can listen to the audio but they can't watch the videos without jeopardizing their careers.
