Candy's Going Bad

While Georg Kajanas romanticized prostitutes with songs like "A Glass Of Champagne," and Linda Lewis produced the laughable "Red Light Ladies," these guys tell it as it is: Candy's going bad Got a room to let... Got a pimp named Ted

"Candy's Going Bad" from the 1973 Moontan album may not have been as big a hit as "Radar Love," but if anything it is more powerful. Through neon doors Across killing floors She got sucked into a champagne desert Not bad imagery when one considers English is not their first language - they're Dutch.

Co-written by lead vocalist Barry Hay and lead guitarist George Kooymans, the album version runs to 6 minutes 13 seconds, while the single, which runs 3:40, was released on Track Records in 1974, backed by "She Flies On Strange Wings."
