OE-OE-OEREND HARD


Listen to....

...Oerend Hard, from Normaal, Holland, 1977

Dutch band Normaal started in 1974, singing slang of the east part of Holland. Proud of being called 'farmers' they adore this image. The first big hit they produced was this song, a story about two guys speeding on a BSA and a Norton, going to watch the motocross races, and have a lot of fun. 'But driving too fast and drinking too much beer, unfortunately they will come to their end...' Oerend Hard (Speeding F#cking Fast) is thé number one classic motorcycle song of Holland.
