Andre hazes is simply the best in dutch maybe all music, the different genarations and culture within the netherlands. When you go to a bar where there is hiphop music for people 20s you will hear hazes, when you go to older people bars you hear hazes. I listen to this with my dad and my grandpa while drinking heineken. Simply timeless music facts on facts and pure amsterdam mentalitety. From the heart… Ons hazes🧡
There is not - I repeat- NOT a single Dutch adult who doesn't know who André Hazes (sr.) is! It would be a absolute miracle if you could find one. (But you won't find one, trust me on this😉) He is a true legend wether you like his kind of music or not. His son, André Hazes jr is also a folk singer but he no longer calls himself 'jr' because 'sr' has passed away and he himself now has a son named André. So this child is now 'jr'.
Hazes was a big fan of BB King and when the opportunity came around for the two to meet, King surprised Hazes by telling him "Oh but I know who you are!" Turns out that during previous tours through the Netherlands, King heard Hazes' music and was deeply impressed by his singing. As far as BB King was concerned, Hazes was a blues singer and a damn good one at that. VERY high praise indeed.
When i was young i pretended to not like his songs but Mr Hazes grows on you and gets in your heart. There is no one in Holland who never sang his lyrics out loud in the bar. You just have to sing a long with him.
First time I see someone re@cling to Andre Hazes, the king of music in every bar/pub in the Netherlands,. His songs are all heartfelt and awesome. He sings “life” at his purest. You are one of my favorite reactors, keep it real and many more will subscribe, you are loved !
I follow you already and really like your comments. but man, an American comments on Andre Hazes is very very special. Love it and keep it up man. Big greetz from Holland.
He had great songs. Nothing but cold truth with a warm voice. This one breaks me at the very first tones. Now I am older, I appreciate it so much more. How many cafe's this man made cry, laugh and drink. For decades.
In 2021 i was 34 learned that i had a depression for more then 20 years now chronic never going away. I'd been to many mental helpers and it never got discovered so too speak. Now for the past 3 years im lgetting to know myself again and getting back in touch with my repressed emotions. I know this song by heart and sang along multiple times evn in the past 3 years. When i saw you react, halfway around the globe not speaking a word Dutch (with help of the subtitles)instantly understand the meaning and powerful message of this song, it made me cry to this song for the first time. So thank you for that, it shows music truly is the one language every soul speaks. 💞💞
Ooooh, the memories. Came to Amsterdam in 1980. You automatically learned Hazes songs in the pubs you visited. The genre is called ´levenslied´ in Dutch.
For most Dutch fathers like me, this is a very emotional song as you see how fast your "little boy" grows so fast and the Singer Andre Hazes senior allready past away. R.I.P.
4:55 that is a trashcan from an amusementpark called Holle Bolle Gijs, he legit says "Papier, Hier" (rough translation "papers, here,) and when you feed him your papers he says thank you (If you are gonna do Puppe by Rammstein live, there is a chance that you will see him again in a stroler) Greetings from The Netherlands
I was scrolling through the new video's and I was like wow Andre hazes is here to. I grow up with his music my stepfather always listened to it when he was alive
This song was played during the funeral of my grandpa, it was the first time i heard the song. Hope one day I’ll be grandpa and play the song for my grandchild.
When you come to the Netherlands, please go to á café in the Jordaan ( in Amsterdam) And wait until the most guests there are drunk. Than ask for some Andre Hases. Preferably: ,,De vlieger ,, een beetje verliefd or this song ,, kleine jongen. Than jou will know why he is our hero
i like all your comments on the dutch singers and songs and nice it is translated in english for you ! your reactions are looking natural and passionated wich i like , Thank you so much!! keep on going on like this ;-)
Wow I am amazed that you also responded to our great folk singer. Andre Hazes plays a very big role in our family at birthdays, weddings, holidays and even funerals. Next week I'm going to a holiday house with sisters and brothers for a week and yes, Hazes will come with me. my brother and I are celebrating our birthday there right away so that will be roaring with Hazes among others hahahaha .Thanks love you to the moon and back ❤️
I absolutely love this song!! It is so beautiful and has amazing truthful message! It so beautiful and has that nostalgic feeling of the 50s & 60s vibes with this song! So powerful!!
I'm an Amsterdammer, like Andre Hazes was. Lived in The Netherlands for almost 50 years and now living in the USA since 5 years. It makes me feel proud to see you commenting this song and appreciate it's meaning, which is grasped out of people's lives. Andre Hazes in this time is still legendary, just because of the reason I mentioned above. His songs are grasped out of people's lives.
Funny to see a reaction of this video from 1963 with music of Andre Hazes. This video from youtube I published on my facebook a long time ago. Seeing my country in 60 years of rapid change is disturbing but try to make the best out of it.
I am so happy that you did this, thank you to the person who did this! Andre Hazes is for me, the most important person to me! He is no longer among us, but he gave me many live lessons true his songs! Thank you, thank you for this reaction!
The said thing is that André junior Losing his father on a really Young Age the concert whit the kist in the middle of the Amsterdam arena that you see van André Hazes whit Xander de Buisonjé. This song was for him and when he writes this song he was a baby . Now was andre the age of 75 and he died really toooo early 😢 💔
Dude, this Amsterdam song is still sung by whole streets the year round, when people have birthdays and the beer has spilled richly. Hazes will always aways end the night well for everyone
André could stumble on stage drunk out of his mind, forget all the lyrics to his songs and blurt out a word here and there. The crowd wouldn't care and belt out the songs themselves. A true Dutch legend.
This men andre hazes is our Elvis Presley, Micheal Jackson, bob marley he is greatest singer of the nederland that ever lifed his funeral was in a soccer stadium in amsterdam there where 50thousand people there he is greater then life for us thank you that you react on him I hope in the future you do more about him also some life concerts gr wesley from amsterdam ❤️
He is a real Amsterdam singer. Love all his music. Unfortunatly he has past a few years ago. In every cafe here in amsterdam you will still hear his music.
My brother, you just stepped into the best of traditional Dutch "Song of Life", from the greatest our nation has ever seen, Andre Hazes. And while you might never see this comment, you might and ignore this recommendation, but if you ever, **ever**, find yourself with a few minutes to spare, please listen to Andre Hazes' "De Vlieger". Which translates to "The Kite". If not for our viewing pleasure, for yourself. It is by far the most beautiful song in our language. Though I might be biased, as it has hit harder than ever, ever since my mom passed.
The one greatest folk singer in the Netherlands- Amsterdam who passed away too young. My mother was born in Amsterdam, so it has double meaning to me. His lyrics were heartfelt. Back from the days music had some poetry and meaning in it. It's nice you are reacting to this.
If you love watching people, you're going to love Dutch terrace culture. Sit down outside a bar at a square or busy shopping street and you'll be entertained for hours
Okay I need to hold my horses to not to cry, I'm from the Netherlands living here 20 years and I love Andre's music. Gonna wait for Zij gelooft in mij ❤️
Now you are doing the real Dutch music . wauw Andre Hazes wauw. He is whitout douth the biggest artist holland ever haved. Nobody sold more albums in the Netherlands than Hazes ❤❤❤
Haha, no need for apologies. Everybody likes to see people just doing their thing. That's why we even invented a word for it "mensenkijken" (people-watching). I realize I'm two years late on this one but your wholesome reactions are timeless. Thanks and much love from the Netherlands!
All of Andre Hazes songs are like national anthems for us the Dutch people, doesn't matter where you play Hazes in the Netherlands people start singing spontaneously
LOVE YOUR WORK! It has not escaped my / our notice that you always seek out, highlight and promote the GOOD in Humanity. The wise - the kind - the caring. And that your humour is always rooted in genuine enjoyment which is also Respectful. It doesn't come from a place of cynicism or sarcasm. People who have come up through 'the school of hard knocks' can choose whether to be defined by the negativity of their past or look forward through a more Positive 'Lens'. We can choose to be a product of our past or a generator of our future. This is so very necessary when our News Cycle's and many other programs are all about the opposite; the worst of humanity. Keep on being Inspirational! Well done. Ps. maybe you should set up a "The Good News Only" Network ??? :)
This song stays amazingly beautiful, it doesn't matter how much I hear it. And as a soon to be teacher it warms my heart to hear you say that parents should be more involved again. Parents expect us to do so much but seem to forget that they have a huge responsibility in their childrens life because they think that the teachers will do it all...
Omg.. so much respect that you are doing this hahaha. As a dutchman I will make you some compliments! You are making really cool video's, and you have interest in Dutch culture and music. These are the things that make the world cool! Again thankyou. :)

Fully agree on the parents getting more involved in the educational system. I don't know how old this song is but when I moved to Amsterdam in 1981 they were already playing his music in bars. Both in your friendly neighborhood cafe or in the friendly Hells Angels bar everybody did sing along. All over the country actually. I see you reacting to a lot of Dutch stuff. Come visit. No hotel needed, you can crash at my place.
I'am from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 My mother is Dutch but my Father is a from the Moluccan island near Indonesia. I am more a hip hop guy .. but Andre Hazes was/ is the biggest singer from The Netherlands ! You can call him a legend. And yes I also listen to him .. his songs are quit simple but his lyrics wil always touch you and his voice is unbelievable its unique. I'am now a father of a boy he is 10 months old now ! So this number gives me a real meaning ! I wanted to get a tattoo from a lyric of this song 👌 I swear you cannot find one adult person in Holland that don't now the name Andre Hazes senior ..
He wrote this for his son. and the sad thing is like he said in this song “when i'm not here anymore” he past away in 2004. and left his son (10) and his daughter 11 years old.
I like this reaction. The singer is very famous in the Netherlands but is considered singing corny songs. It is a guilty pleasure for a lot people and most of the Dutch know his songs by heart. It is nice to have somebody listening that does not know him and his backstory so having an open mind.
There is a Dutch rapsong "het land van - Lange Frans & Baas B" (also a very very good representation of Dutch culture) where André Hazes is praised in every bar and café in Holland for the next 100 years..! And I think there right about that! Although he is no longer among us, his legend lives on ;) much love! Keep it up!
RUclips is feeding me some of your older videos again Paul, but I loved to watch this one. This song is so much loved by the Dutch. Play this song in a bar and the whole bar is singing 🎵 Kleinuh jonguhhhh !!! 🎶 🍺😂👍
Andre Hazes is passed away also. His son Andre Hazes Junior has almost the same sound of voice. He makes other songs now, but als sings the old repotoire of his old man. "" andre hazes doodgewone man "" is a song from him. maybe worth to lissen?

Not necessarily limited to our "hero" Andre Hazes, but I see you react to various Dutch artists and regularly notice "surprise". It may be summarized by respect that is embedded in our society although we ourselves tend to forget that! The way i.e. our singers in "Beste zangers" act is not an act, but just the way we are. We have a very "open" society, attend actively to differences and in doing so often over empfasize differences more than what binds us. I see many reactors reacting to "Beste zangers" and trying to "get" what this "competition" is about; it is just fun, having a nice time together, enjoying each others crafts, it is NOT a competition. Competition is normally hardly present in our society, we do "it" together like grades in school are not that impirtant but the exchange of knowledge is! Remember, that the only thing in life that multiplies when you share (divide) it, is knowledge! The fact that many, many years in a row Dutch children score nr 1 in the "happiest children in the world" listing is the sound basis for a "happy" society as a whole. We have 2 sayings to illustrate that. 1) Live and let live 2) Act normal. Mind you, it's not all sunshine!
This sub genre of folk music is called Levenslied (Life Song). I am not a big fan of the genre in general, but almost every Dutch person likes Andre Hazes. He had a strong Amsterdam dialect, and I have a soft spot for it, because I was born and raised in Amsterdam.
This was Andre Hazes Senior. He sung this for his son Andre Hazes Junior. Andre Hazes Senior unfortunately passed away almost 17 years ago. His music is still very popular (especially in Amsterdam). This is one of my favorites from him. His son (Andre Hazes Junior) is also a famous singer. My favorites from him are Leef! And Ik leef mijn eigen leven. I love your reactions, much love 💕 Edit: He sung it for his oldest son not for Andre jr. 🙈

I don’t think that any one off us here from the netherlands can explain to you what André Hazes means to our culture.
Yes. And sad thing is he only is so respected widely after his death.
Andre hazes is simply the best in dutch maybe all music, the different genarations and culture within the netherlands. When you go to a bar where there is hiphop music for people 20s you will hear hazes, when you go to older people bars you hear hazes.

The holy grail of Dutch folk music.

I still miss Andre every day ♥
There is not - I repeat- NOT a single Dutch adult who doesn't know who André Hazes (sr.) is! It would be a absolute miracle if you could find one. (But you won't find one, trust me on this😉) He is a true legend wether you like his kind of music or not.

Im 15 and I know all of his songs 💪
Yes jr is having profit from his fathers fame….

Wow, this is a real old school song, Amsterdam style. It’s unreal to hear you react to it from the US!
Ik dacht exact hetzelfde!
Hé is the king in the netherlands
i think he says somewhere that he is living in thailand ?
@@witvliet6286 I must have missed that…
He is not in the USA, why you think that? He lives almost 8 years in Thailand.
When i was young i pretended to not like his songs but Mr Hazes grows on you and gets in your heart. There is no one in Holland who never sang his lyrics out loud in the bar. You just have to sing a long with him.

André was a Blues singer, died much to young, had a hard life. Everyone knows Andre Hazes and his fantastic songs❤️
In the Netherlands every generation listens to André hazes. All people, the gangsters, the nanny's the kids. Its just so dutch.
I follow you already and really like your comments. but man, an American comments on Andre Hazes is very very special. Love it and keep it up man. Big greetz from Holland.

Sorry maar hazes is een genre opzich
@@jeroendebruijn704 True, True, That's why two of the four events of Holland sing Hazes to be held in March 2023 in the Ziggo Dome is sold out.

I know i have been there countless times
Just to pay respect to the legend andre hazes sr

He is no longer among us, but he gave me many live lessons true his songs!
Thank you, thank you for this reaction!

This song was for him and when he writes this song he was a baby .
Now was andre the age of 75 and he died really toooo early 😢 💔
Dude, this Amsterdam song is still sung by whole streets the year round, when people have birthdays and the beer has spilled richly. Hazes will always aways end the night well for everyone

Goosbumps on my skin when i hier a song off André Hazes sr.
I love your positive comments :) Thank you.
Haha, no need for apologies. Everybody likes to see people just doing their thing. That's why we even invented a word for it "mensenkijken" (people-watching). I realize I'm two years late on this one but your wholesome reactions are timeless. Thanks and much love from the Netherlands!
Respect that you react to Hazes, thanks for that.
He was an heavy alcoholic, (like me) but the feelings he puts out are so true/real. And that is just it, respect/love/understanding....
André Hazes has so much beautiful songs, he wrote the most himself, and his voice an lyrics goes right in to your heart ❤️
Listen more Andre Hazes he was real and great we missis him very mutch!

Niceeeee man ❤️

He wrote this for his son. and the sad thing is like he said in this song “when i'm not here anymore” he past away in 2004. and left his son (10) and his daughter 11 years old.
The song played at the Johan Cruyff tribute, sung by everyone in the Arena, is a song from André Hazes aswell
I like this reaction. The singer is very famous in the Netherlands but is considered singing corny songs. It is a guilty pleasure for a lot people and most of the Dutch know his songs by heart.

i buried a really good friend hearing this song. even tough this mans funeral nearly cost me my life this song has a special place

@@HighlyCombustibleReacts i agree , the best
RUclips is feeding me some of your older videos again Paul, but I loved to watch this one. This song is so much loved by the Dutch. Play this song in a bar and the whole bar is singing 🎵 Kleinuh jonguhhhh !!! 🎶 🍺😂👍
Andre Hazes is passed away also. His son Andre Hazes Junior has almost the same sound of voice. He makes other songs now, but als sings the old repotoire of his old man. "" andre hazes doodgewone man "" is a song from him. maybe worth to lissen?

it's like you're sitting next to me on the couch 🙈
Not necessarily limited to our "hero" Andre Hazes, but I see you react to various Dutch artists and regularly notice "surprise". It may be summarized by respect that is embedded in our society although we ourselves tend to forget that! The way i.e. our singers in "Beste zangers" act is not an act, but just the way we are. We have a very "open" society, attend actively to differences and in doing so often over empfasize differences more than what binds us. I see many reactors reacting to "Beste zangers" and trying to "get" what this "competition" is about; it is just fun, having a nice time together, enjoying each others crafts, it is NOT a competition. Competition is normally hardly present in our society, we do "it" together like grades in school are not that impirtant but the exchange of knowledge is! Remember, that the only thing in life that multiplies when you share (divide) it, is knowledge!
The fact that many, many years in a row Dutch children score nr 1 in the "happiest children in the world" listing is the sound basis for a "happy" society as a whole. We have 2 sayings to illustrate that. 1) Live and let live 2) Act normal.
Mind you, it's not all sunshine!
The song is pretty old and the singer already passed away. His son is also a great popular .singer
This sub genre of folk music is called Levenslied (Life Song). I am not a big fan of the genre in general, but almost every Dutch person likes Andre Hazes. He had a strong Amsterdam dialect, and I have a soft spot for it, because I was born and raised in Amsterdam.
levenslied smartlap is absolute top
His son André has a duet with his father in a projection. Beautiful
This was Andre Hazes Senior. He sung this for his son Andre Hazes Junior. Andre Hazes Senior unfortunately passed away almost 17 years ago. His music is still very popular (especially in Amsterdam). This is one of my favorites from him. His son (Andre Hazes Junior) is also a famous singer. My favorites from him are Leef! And Ik leef mijn eigen leven.
I love your reactions, much love 💕
Edit: He sung it for his oldest son not for Andre jr. 🙈
Volgens mij zong die het voor zijn oudste zoon Melvin.
@@clifffan3 I looked it up, you're right. I always thought it was for Andre 🙈
He was the king of the songs of life. And even years after his death, his music is popular by youth and adults.
This is how the Netherlands said goodby to this folk hero !
