Clouseau – Daar Gaat Ze
My musical taste is very atypical. Yeah I know, many people say that but I think I do fit that category with Korean indie artists, Japanese reggae, Russian rock, Bolivian folk and a good amount of mainstream pop. Despite my love for music from all sides of the world, I tend to dislike Dutch music. However, there’s an exception on this and that’s Clouseau. Well, they’re actually from Belgium so that makes it Flemish, not Dutch. So I guess I still don’t like Dutch music 8D
The video is a live version of the song, vocalist Koen Wauters actually sings much better and less strained in the original, but I chose this video because secretly, I find him awfully cute in this, he he. I believe he is presenting some Dutch tv show for some sort of Michael Jackson impersonator act, I should watch it some time.
This song, “Daar Gaat Ze” was actually my brother’s favorite song when we were little. Mine was Lambada by Kaoma, about twenty years later I fell in love with the group that composed the original song, lol.

Songs like “Dat ze de mooiste is” (on the “Adrenaline” album), “De nacht duurt nog lang” and “Bondgenoot” (the version Koen did with Guus Meeuwis, not the solo performance) are definitely amongst my favorites. It’s an in-the-moment love for the music for me, you’ll probably find me shouting along with Acda en de Munnik’s “Het regent zonnestralen” at the same time.
On an off-topic note: 3 hours of sleep, back on a train in an hour for another night… Thanks for the relax last night, woke up smiling :)

lol I’ll skip Acda en de Munnik, that’s definitely pushing it too much when it comes to Dutch music :P I do like their lyrics though but musically I don’t like them at all.
So did you send me that message? haha!
