Radar Love - Golden Earring - Live - 1973 ( www.youtube.com )

I've been drivin' all night, my hands wet on the wheel. There's a voice in my head that drives my heel
It's my baby callin', sayin', "I need you here"
And it's a half past four and I'm shiftin' gear
When she is lonely and the longing gets too much
She sends a cable, coming in from above
Don't need no phone at all
We've got a thing that's called radar love
We've got a wave in the air
Radar love
The radio's playin' some forgotten song
Brenda Lee's "Coming On Strong"
The road has got me hypnotized
And I'm speedin' into a nude sunrise
When I get lonely and I'm sure I've had enough
She sends her comfort coming in from above
We don't need no letter at all
We've got a thing tthat's called a radar love
We've got a line in the sky
Radar love
No more speed, I'm almost there
Gotta keep cool, now gotta take care
Last car to pass, here I go
And the line of cars go down real slow, woah
And the radio played that forgotten song
Brenda Lee's "Coming On Strong"
And the newsman sang his same song
Oh, one more radar lover gone
When I get lonely and I'm sure I've had enough
She sends her comfort coming in from above
We don't need no letter at all
We've got a thing that's called radar love
We've got a line in the sky
We've got a thing that's called radar love
We've got a thing that's called
Radar love

Legendary track and band, but that's not live at all. :) Georges dubbed guitar licks and his dubbed background vocals, I am even not sure if his guitar is plugged in, invisable horn section, Barry's lip sync.

I see more music posted as 'live' that isn't, like that video recently from Iron Butterfly.

I usually go with the Youtube classification for whether something is live or not, as the videos that old have poor sourcing, and it can be difficult to tell. I chose this particular clip because it had the best version of the drum solo from the original, and a better sound quality than the band's official video.

Here's other ones I found in case you're interested:

Official music video - pretty cruddy video, bad sound quality, but it does have the drum solo

"Live" in 1973 - good energy, cruddy sound quality with unbalanced mixing, sloppy tempo, weak vocals

White Lion version - a pretty decent cover. Probably best video of the song, and the guitar work is great... but the drummer can't pull off the original solo which is the heart of the original, and the vocals are meh.
