Brenda Lee - Coming On Strong Lyrics
Comin' on strong, comin' on strong.
I can feel the heartaches
Comin' on strong.
I can feel the teardrops, the pain, and the sorrow
Ever since you've been gone, they' been
Pain, come on in, hello sorrow,
I see you're back again.
Teardrops, glad you dropped by,
'Cause you can help drown my pride.
And since you're here, time seems just fine,
To let you know that you're gonna be with me
'Til I lose my mind,
But you've been gone,
Comin' on strong.
Only thing you left me, was misery for company,
And memories of a love gone wrong, that keep
Comin' on strong. Comin' on strong
Comin' on strong. Comin' on strong
Comin' on strong. Comin' on strong

Radar Love - Golden Earring + Brenda - Lee - Coming on Strong
Anyone was NOT brought here by Radar Love? (Not me by the way, I was)
If you like this one check out Dynamite, what a powerful voice for a little girl.
Ahhhh this and radar love beats everything in the world😦🤷🏽♀️
My own free will brought me here.
White Lion s cover bring me here😍😍😍
October 2 .2019 for Mom .Happy Birthday in Heaven.
i think i am not the only one who comes from radar love.....
If you were on a road trip to get to your babe back in the late 60's, late night, this is likely what you heard on the AM radio somewhere in the middle of nowhere
Jessy barden brought me
Valen Arena me too
Coming on strong brot me
Little David Wilkins wrote the song
Love brought me here
Always thought she had a tough style especially for the 60s
BRENDA LEE LO MÁXIMO 28/04/2019 SIEMPRE BRENDA LEE
Radar Love brought me here (or should it be "hear?"). For 46 years, ever since Radar Love came out, I 've misinterpreted the lyrics. The driver in the song is listening to the radio and being on the highway, stations sometimes fade in and out depending on distance to the radio tower, weather conditions, strength of the broadcast, etc. and so I thought that coming on strong was not the name of the song but the reception strength of the radio signal while one of Brenda Lee's songs was playing. Not until I actually looked up the lyrics and saw that "Coming on Strong" was in parentheses that I was enlightened to the fact that it was a song title. (I had never heard "Coming on Strong" before.)
I'm 65 years old, how many other things have I misinterpreted in my life? I've always thought I had a strong grasp of reality but apparently life can be tricky.
Radar Love
RADAR LOVE
Golden Earring brought me here.
That trumpet, what a song , 1967, fast cars, late night eating grilled cheese and drinking chocolate milk among other things!!!
And the news man played his same song.
Oh, one more radar lover gone.
When you have been driving an automobile for several hours into the night to the point that your hands are now perspiring onto the steering wheel in anticipation of meeting with your lover, with whom you appear to have such a strong connection that you both, essentially, have developed a sixth sense making you capable of sensing each other's emotions and sending messages to each other through non-physical, non-electronic means.
They should use a photo of her wearing a Golden Earring.
Radar Love by Golden Earring and this song are like night and day !
Nerdygirl no way
Where have I heard this song before?
While I love Radar Love, it sure didn't bring me here. I grew up hearing Coming On Strong on the radio and always liked it.
...……….……..and that's why Golden Earring sang about her.
Brenda Lee brought me here.
And the radio played that forgotten song.
Yep, Radar Love. Lol
Brenda lee sang Radar love together with Barry Hay (singer from Golden Earring)
Good Girls Revolt brought me here : )
♥️XXXOOOXXX♥️
wow this firery force of nature sould or could have just done rock she would have rock the world, man what a woman the queen of rock rules- I wish ms.Brenda kick ASS
The other day I heard a great song, "Radar Love", in a commercial. Now with a desire to listen to the whole song, I went to You Tube where I looked it up, along with the lyrics. I was a young kid the first time I heard it play on the radio (about 7-8 yrs. old), and reading the lyrics for the first time, I realized the line "...Brenda Lee's "coming on strong" is a reference to a song and its singer, not a girl named Brenda Lee (who was coming on strong). So, naturally, I looked up this Brenda Lee song, ....and here I am.
Anyone else see the above mentioned commercial and in a twisted/convoluted way, ended up here? Just curious. One more thing....did anybody mistake the title of Radar Love and those same words repeated in the chorus as "Red Alert"? LOL, for years I always thought he was singing "Red Alert"-- I can still here it during the chorus when he sings the words radar love a few times- the last radar love in that line sounds like it, to me at least.
Brenda Lee said she was very flattered she was mentioned in the song ' RadaR Love'
How wonderful that Golden Earring placed the title of this masterpiece in their own song "Radar Love" so that we could all experience the wonder that is the mysterious "forgotten song." It simply gives me goosebumps.
It’s not a masterpiece. Hence why it’s referred to as “a forgotten song.” Dumbass.

God bless little Miss Brenda,
American treasure!
This lady can sing, great song, many thanks.
a us1OO hit number 11 cannot be forgotten
Awesome song
Took the words out of my mouth.
There are thousands of us here because we remember it first time round. Brenda 's voice is quite incredibly strong. No wonder she was called 'Little Miss Dynamite'
This song came out in the late 50s
+B.A. Lavallee SONG WAS A HIT IN RADIO IN 1967
Then it was a remake. My parents had the original 45. Her late 60s it was "Johnny One Time" But, thank you for the info.
A good song, love the horns start up.
106,000 views because radar love
I was about to say, 'stop it', but as soon as I hit reply the song started. Nice groove. Keep trying, although I'm not sure today's youth give a sh*t about what 'we' think. I'm properly old, trust me. Ok, I spent a minute looking for the 'more than' maths symbol on this keyboard. Not there. Fool me anytime. I'm here to be fooled by anyone who's kind and nice and, sorry.kids, old. And you seem nice. The internet, in its benign form. Trust me, it won't last. Love you x
justin nigel I know right? What even is this?

Yep. me too.

here because radar love
Yep, me too - very disappointed!
Bull on radar love, can’t hold a candle to this great singer and song!!!
A REAL star….and talented, unlike the half-clad degenerates posing as "singers" today
So true. Thank you friend.
Great intro...
"Radio plays a forgotten song---Brenda Lee Comin' on strong!" Never even heard this song until recently! Immortalized by the ever incredible Golden Earring's "Radar Love"!!! This song came out the year I was born--1966! Since I love "Rockin' around the Christmas tree" and several others, when I heard this song, I was blown completely away! It ROCKS, and the trumpets are awesome! Since I am a drummer and am learning trumpet, at age 48, I was amazed at just how awesome it is! Well--really should I be surprised? Brenda Lee is the best of the best in female rock singers, and the first, too! I hope she lives to be 100! What a voice! What a lady! What a rocker! I always dreamed of her and Pat Benatar doing a hard rockin' duet together---they would bring the house down! 2 of the best female rockers ever! I love you, Brenda Lee! You are forever in my heart and soul! Rick "C-6" Delair "the paraplegic drummer"!!!!
Holy shit I did not realise she sang Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree, but i can hear that now. The more you know 🌈 man, that was even a Christmas song I used to like a lot when I was little. Theres a home video somewhere of 3-4 year old me dancing to it in Hershey Park
Who cares about radar love? No comparison!!!
@Bobby Wall Obviously plenty of people care about it. And nobody in this comment is comparing anyone. Are you really irritated that people have learned about -- and appreciate -- Brenda Lee because of another song?
Seventy years of being a wonderful Lady,
And still coming on strong,
you go Bren!
Bren would be the best super bowl half time show ever "50"
Radar Love brought me here :D
+1 and CNN put "When the Bullet Hits the Bone" as a featured song today. Didn't know Golden Earring formed in '61 (!) and are still playing !!!
She was cute and talented!
Golden Earring inspired me to find this. Pretty good.
Same here!
Maarten van Rossem Lezingen same🥺🥺
does anyone beside me think of the song It's Not Unusual when they hear the opening notes to this song
+jennifur sun Absolutely. First thing I thought of.
Simply perfection,
would not change a thing,
💗Brenda💗
🇺🇸
Keep that beautiful heart beating for many many more years Brenda.❤️
"Coming on strong by The Queen...
Coming on strong (bis)
I can feel the heartaches
Coming on strong
I can feel the teardrops
The pain and sorrow
Ever since you've been gone
They've been coming on strong
Pain come on in
Hello sorrow, I see you're back again
Teardrops glad you dropped by
'Cause you can help drown my pride
And since you're here
The time seems to fly
To let you know you're gonna be with me
Till I lose my mind
But you've been gone
Much too long
And I can feel the heartaches
Coming on strong
Only thing you left me
Was misery for company
And memories of a love gone wrong
That keep coming on strong
Coming on strong !

Bren,
you've got what it takes,
and then some.
Coming on strong!
The Lady, the Legend, Miss Brenda herself!
Everything Brenda done in her performances was coming on strong (Little Miss Dynamite) is just the way she did her shows back then.
I love Brenda Lee.
This is just one of her many great ones...Over 500 tracks over what is now 60 years of recording....check out "That's All You Gotta Do" live performance with Clarence Clemons..this best version she is wearing white with gold stripe, from HBO special.
takes me back to the good old day come on strong
Love little Miss Dynamite!
This gem from 1966 you can listen to over and over and never get tired of hearing it!!! The only thing that might have surpassed Brenda's voice was hear hypnotic beauty...God gave out a double dose of blessings when He created this lovely lady!!Thank you for posting this song as well as video. A++++ job!!
Boy that's for sure, I couldn't' that've said it better my self.
That's Bren!
Ya, Radar Love also brought me here too.
Me too "Brenda Lee: 'Comin' on Strong"
+Sec Techie Me too. I alway thought that 'coming on strong' was referring to the way she came through on the radio ;-)
Takes me back, love it.
Is there a better song of the 1960s, in that weird country-rock range, so at home with all the other wildness? Within its shortness Brenda just builds and builds, and sends you into her very own universe. Trust me, I've played the record for friends, who started bored and just got more and more involved, then had to hear it again and again. This song is hypnotic.
" and the radio played some forgotten song
Brenda Lee's Coming On Strong .... " ......... FORGOTTEN ... NEVER
This is an outstanding track by an outstanding singer ! :)
Thank you, yes were millions strong, love little Brenda!!!
Ha Ha Ha! Me too! Brought here by Radar Love... never heard it otherwise
Yep " Radar Love " brought me here too ...
What a fab voice and song !!
Gooooo Girrrrrll !!
brung me here also.
Radar Love -> Coming on Strong
Well they had to rhyme something with 'forgotten song'
GTA V brought me to Radar Love which brought me here.
Met too! lol catchy classic country by the way.
I always get Brenda confused with Teresa Brewer.
Radar Love is pretty lame as well so they go together nicely.
This song was used by American Motors (Gremlin, Hornet, Matador, etc.) for their 1973 radio commercials.
It's funny that most of us were brought here by "Radar Love". I always wondered for years what this forgotten song was, & now I will forget it...This song is lame !
Really great sound. I adore Brenda Lee.
Many thanks.
*cough* *cough*
radarlove
*cough*
No se como termine aquí D:
Radar Love
Me too! Didn't know who Brenda Lee was. :) Love to Google!
Radar Love brought me here
Say her in Armada Michigan She opened with this song she was great!!!!!!!
I heard Radar Love earlier today and I'd meant to look this one up earlier, so yeah.
Anybody else find this fairly awesome song thanks to Radar love?
Radar love <3
Never knew this song existed until I listened to Radar Love by Golden Earring.
I honestly wouldn't know who Brenda Lee is if it wasn't for "Radar Love". But I love this song c:
YES! BIG reference!
Really good song.
Many thanks for posting.
I adore Brenda's voice!!!!
Brenda Lee has always been one of my favorite singers, right alongside Dusty Springfield and Dionne Warwick.
I've introduced this song to people over the years, and watched them become entranced.
It has, perhaps, the most perfect pacing, and wild throw-offs into something else, as it just keeps building... and you don't even realize it, until Brenda has you back and into the finale.
This is a very interesting piece of music.
My mommy's name is Brenda Lee. :D
If you get here by radar love join...join to if you watching this in 2011
A big summertime hit...1966....thanks for the memories!
@lilmrulezz Me three :-)
@lilmrulezz- Me too...
Oh this is a great song.
Thanks.
LJD
Brenda Lee...heartbreaker for sure. In the best possible way.
