Benz on the highway

Europe teamed up with fellow Swede Erik Grönwall to play a song we all know on Swedish TV:

The performance is from a long running Swedish quiz show where Europe acts as the house band for the first three episodes of the season. The question for this musical segment was of course which artists made the orginal song. One team thought Kiss and the other thought Motörhead. Both teams knew Janis Joplin though.

    Joey Tempest has a bit of a David Coverdale tone in him when he sings HS. Erik sounds more like Gillan. Close your eyes and you can imagine DC and IG doing a call & response. Nice!

    I asked it before.

    Why are these YT topics uploaded here like this, headache and more invoking instead of just this.

    In Sweden or maybe Germany this broadvast is probably normal.

    The Netherlands, the media, have been awful and relentlessly suppressing heavy rock as long as I can remember.

    Sometimes there was a surprising moment but in general it has been making me angry a lot.

    Cant we arrange an action against Dutch VPRO broadcasting because they kept sitting on the 1969/Paradiso show ?
    @Uwe, get off your lawyers bum and do something, please!?

    Mick Wall in 87 mentioned the DC and Joey similarity.
    Never thought of it that way
