Golden Earring - Are You Receiving Me Lyrics






If your circles could be spirals
And your idols weren't machines
If you could pick up all the signals
And flash on where you've been

Maybe you don't feel it at all
It's your own fault crawl boy, crawl!
If you could quit the miming
And try some different timing
You could get a chance to be free

Are you receiving me
It's the pilot's plea
Are you receiving me
Close to insanity
Are you receiving me
Recharge your battery
Are you receiving me
(or are you out to lunch)

If your prayers could all be answered
And you were given time to pay
The chances would be so heavy
But you'd find a better way

Golden Earring Are You Receiving Me Comments
  1. D.... G....

    Big GE fan from India here. I must admit, I'd heard only one song before. It wasn't Radar Love, it was Ce Soir (because Iron Maiden covered it!).
    I heard they were coming to Pinkpop '19, which I was doing as part of a Europe tour, and decided to check them out fully and was blown away by the quality and variety of songs. The sublime guitar playing of George Kooymans was a particular delight. This song and the instrumental section is one of my favourite musical sections of all time now. I wish more people knew about them, I'd call them the most underrated band of all time given all that they've done.

    Thank you, Holland, for the rock music world's best-kept secret, I just wish you buggers weren't so humble about it.

    PS: India connect for trivia wonks - Barry Hay was born in India.

    If your circles could be spirals
    And your idols weren't machines
    If you could pick up all the signals
    And flash on where you've been

    Maybe you don't feel it at all
    It's your own fault, crawl boy crawl
    You could quit the miming
    Try some different timing
    You could get a chance to be free--

    Are you receiving me?
    It's the pilot's plea
    Are you receiving me?
    Close to insanity
    Are you receiving me?
    Recharge your battery
    Oooh, Are you receiving me?

    If your prayers could all be answered
    You were given time to pay
    The chances would be so heavy
    But you'd find a better way

    Maybe you don't feel it at all
    It's your own fault, crawl boy crawl
    You can quit the miming
    Try some different timing
    You could get a chance to be free--

    Are you receiving me?
    It's the pilot's plea
    Are you receiving me?
    Close to insanity
    Are you receiving me?
    Recharge your battery
    Oooh, Are you receiving me?

    As a massive Earring fan and having seen them live over 100 times, if I was forced to choose one studio album track, this would be it.

  26. �.... ....

    Excellent album - the best song for me is ^ Are You reciving Me ^ Often hear this song on the
    while working on the computer even though I have this LP that I bought long ago in London .
