Golden Earring have been together since 1961 and the current line-up includes two founding members George Kooymans (vocals and guitar) and Rinus Gerritsen (bass, keyboard) along with Barry Hay (vocals, guitar, flute and saxophone) a member since 1968 and Cesar Zuiderwijk (drums) a member since 1970. They have had over 40 hits and 30 albums, many achieving either gold or platinum status in their home country, The Netherlands. They are best known for their 1973 hit single ‘Radar Love’ and their 1982 single ‘Twilight Zone’.

In 1984 the band released the album N.E.W.S. (North, East, West, South). It features the song ‘When The Lady Smiles’ which became an international hit in 1984, reaching #3 in Canada and becoming the band’s fifth number one hit in their native country. Nevertheless it received a disappointing reaction in the United States. Most important reason for this lack of success was that the music video of the song was banned from MTV, because of nudity. The scene portraying the rape of a nun probably didn’t help as well. An edited version of the video was shown, but failed to convey its original intentions.
