The Radios was a Belgian pop band that was founded at the end of the 1980s by singer/songwriter Bart Peeters.[1]

The group was initially named Bart Peeters & the Radios, with members Paul Michiels and Jan Leyers. Their first hit was "I'm into Folk", released in 1988.[2] However, when Michiels and Leyers scored an international hit (The Way to Your Heart) with their other project Soulsister, they were forced to say goodbye to Bart Peeters & the Radios.[3]

Brothers Ronny and Robert Mosuse, who made a splash during the 1988 Humo's Rock Rally, became members of The Radios, as did guitarist Dany Lademacher (a member of Herman Brood & His Wild Romance for many years).[4]

The group scored their greatest hit with "She Goes Nana" in 1992, a song that topped the Belgian hit parade (Ultratop) for 6 weeks.[5] The band toured around the world in that era.[6] Other hits were "Teardrops", "Walking the Thin Line", "She's My Lover" and "Dreaming Wild". Meanwhile, the group is carrying a heavy secret: Robert Mosuse has an untreatable brain tumor, but he wants to spend his remaining time on stage, while the fans have no idea.[7]

In 1994, at the height of their success, internal struggles eventually led to the split of The Radios, and they each went their own way.[8]

Robert Mosuse died in 2000, at the age of 30.[9]
