- today, the 14 of december 2008, it was 40 years ago, Mariska Veres and Shocking Blue entered the dutch charts for the very first time.
1968 was the start of a hugh carrier of this dutch band. One year later the whole world knew who Shocking Blue was, because of there hit Venus.
Oh, and sharts must be charts( of course😁)
This song is over 50 years old and it STILL brings down the house 🤘 RIP Mariska & Klaasje.
And Cor, the drummer 😥
@@ShockingBlueandMariskaVeres I just saw that. He died at 49...WAY too young. RIP Cor.
And the postcards íts still exists
Billion times better than most manufactured rubbish now...
I love that RAWARARAW sound... 😮
Man, that drum tone is unreal for that era!!!!
Better than Lars on Justice for all
Jerry Frost are u still living
@@shannettethompson686 you betcha
@@bangtwister Lars isn'tagreat drummer. That double bass part in "One" was the only hard thing he ever really played.
It’s miced up correctly, ran through the main board and adjusted accordingly.
Cor van der Beek (RIP) does nicely on drums here, as usual.
Mariska is using two mics taped together. One is for the onstage monitor mix, the other is connected to and mixed through the main board.
Nothing high tech about it, it’s old school yet valid nonetheless.

Their best song! Hard, psychedelic but still glorious pop! BRAVO!
I agree 100% !!
pop¿?
I love Shocking Blue. It was Nirvana and Love Buzz that really got me.
That original is muddy and pre-stoner.
👍
Yeah, it's like Jefferson Airplane with Grace Slick.
GMC premix ratio at 40:1
We will always remember Mariska. What an incredible woman!
With an awesome voice.
@@christianestamm2655 It is amazing. She will always rock hard. I'll send her a postcard in heaven. If it doesn't arrive, I will meet her there. I promise.
She is crazy awesome
But also the boys!
They falling just as hard.
Klaasje
Im 68yrs old, and she had a most beautiful voice..them times so many female singers were evolving, you couldnt keep up.❤ loved them all.
The 1960s had class! A time of great music and fashion and Mariska could show all those today a lesson in how it's done! RIP beautiful lady!
52 years ago, yesterday! Sounds as fresh as new!
Impossible! She's not using autotune! 🤣
In seriousness, she had an incredible voice for sure. One of the best vocalists of all time and certainly for the era. "Postcard" is a frequently enjoyable song because of it 😊
@@ShamrockParticleshe was considered the Dutch Grace Slick and it's possible that someone considers her voice better of the two. Anyway there's miss Aretha Franklin vying for first place, and Diana Ross, Tina Turner, Mina..
Sure.. a lot of sixties songs sounds still fresh also if not so new!
Shocking Blue was a great band (and not only Venus, they had so many stunning songs); Mariska Veres a dream of a woman and a fantastic voice. I liked her music so much as a teenager and today too. I am always searching for tunes, that I don't have.
My first song that I heard from them was Long and Lonesome Road, instantly fell in love.
@none of the nones I am a little bit older, my thoughts were "What a beautiful woman with a super voice and this great sound ".
@@Evo_Skorpion They have SO much kicking songs... that's 👍too.
Here this band us underrated. I have vinyl-collection. 0 lame songs. R.I.P... that so beautiful voiceholder...
Navajo Tears!!!
Holy shit! Such a voice. Stunning.
I was lucky enough to be a teenager in Holland when Shocking Blue were THE BAND along with Golden Earring!!
Totally awesome then, still freakin awesome today 🎸
❤ that’s so beautiful!!!
Radar Love, now you’re talking👍🏻
@@pastymansixtynine 👍
This great band always surprises me. It was awesome and pretty heavy back then!
I am lucky to have stumbled on this one! Was before my time, but what a truly kickass vintage rock song.
Goddess of Music with magic voice!Beautiful💞

That psychedelic fuzz guitar and drums are just slamming it. Then you've got the cool, light organ floating in and out. Sharp, hard vocals. What a sonic blast from the trippy/hippie past.
Don't forget the catchiest bass line known to man too
Its ridiculous,only just found this band,their music is amazing
Perfect description!
That voice ! Those looks ! This song ! Terrific.
..are you alive ?
Amazing song. The incomparable Mariska Veres. Love the organ in this.
Goddess of Music with the magic voice!Beautiful💝💗💞💖💓😘
Killer song beside Venus. Great band with the super looking Mariska Veres, who had an awesome voice. Love this band forever.
I still have that single record. And it's my favourite Shocking Blue song.
Recognition at last!!! Shocking Blue LP's are now worth a small fortune. BEST DUTCH GROUP EVER!!!
OOPS! i thought they were from Greece ?
@@kolloduke3341Mariska was hungarian 🙂
In memory of Mariska Veres 11/2006, as a teenager I danced and had a lot of fun with her songs, Thank you, and the friends I had fun with in those times, thank you too, R.I.P. and thanks again for your beautifull songs that inspired us.
I heard this in the eightys once and found it again today almost cried what a great song.
Always had such a crush for this girl. Great voice. Was so sad to hear of her passing.
Nagyon szep Magyar nö. Viszontálásra Mariska.
great drum sound and 'aint no lover like me in town' is such a badass sexy line.
...and the fuzz guitar of course
Amazing singer. I'm sad he's not here anymore 😞
I remember being in a ss chevelle 396 when I heard the song for the first time I wish I could go back
God, I never heard it. 🤘😝🤘fantastic.
Lord have Mercy on a Beautiful woman with a Beautiful voice
She's so beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤
whomever recorded and produced these guys was a genius, ref. venus, inkpot, and this one
She is one of the first rock chic 💚
Oh yes😎😎😎😎 Nice Sphinks cats on your profile pic🖤
yes she is
She was the dutch version of Grace Slick 😉
@@lupodelupis3672 Exactly, and better looking.
@@lupodelupis3672 Or how about Grace was the U.S., much less nice version of Mariska!
Vocals, bass ( one of my favorites lines for play it ) ... Brutal ( guitar, keyboard and drum too 😅)
A great theme... I never get tired of hearing it 🥰
Mariska always un our hearts.
🥲
Bye... 🤪
Based,Classic Band. They didnt have many hits but their influence is still wildly understated.
Actually the weird thing is my wife and I (43 and 46) just recently discovered these guys. We knew that Bananarama covered Venus but we decided to give the original a listen and before you know it, we were fans. One song to the next were ALL HITS. In our opinion at least. Butterfky and I, Never marry a railroad man, Postcard, Deamon Lover Etc Etc I couldn't believe that this band has not been consistently mentioned in the same breath as Jefferson Airplane, The Doors, The Yardbirds, etc etc... At least in america they aren't. These guys are HOF'ers. All Day. Such an underrated band.
I wish this song had been played in the US! I really like it. Far out :)
They were a brilliant band.
now i ca´t sed yuu a postcard man terefore i´m sending you this email now
Pure brilliance, luv The Shocking Blue.💜💜💜💜💜💜
What a great song. Totally psychedelic. Great voice.Yeah.
very nice good looker with a powerful voice to go along with MARISKA VERAS
I listened to some very good covers of this song. But mariska and the rest of the band put so much energy into this version. Definitely the best ever. And of course, no one matches mariska for beauty
She was the best Rockstar woman in that era
Absolutely amazing track!!! Powerful energy.....
Entertainers today can take a lesson from Mariska Veres on how to sing and remain classy doing it! Love the 1960s!
I have a feeling Floor Jansen paid attention.
I was born in 1968 and grew up, mostly, in San Francisco (Hayes Valley then later in the Mission district all in the decade of the 70s), and so just new to life and around 7 or 8 heard 'Venus' among other songs and thought it was rocking.
I had no idea that they had other numbers more dynamic and with tunes put well together, such as this number.
This song gives me the chills,
I love it !
If Mariska Veres would love a 5-year-old boy in 1968 like myself he would definitely have loved her back❤
She really grabbed my eyes. Too cool!
I think that 56 years later I'm really going to send her a postcard telling that I love her so much 🥰
Great tune. Such an organic mix as well. Great stuff.
Mariska Veres is beautiful and very cool.👏
Unbelievable!!! Love her. So cute..
Stunning woman great song.
Never gets old
my gosh, they have many good songs
there certainly ain't no lover like her in town no more ...
rest in peace sweet Mariska Veres !!
Absolutely ahead of their time very 80s MTV punk edge thrilling
She and band never got their due.... May she RIP.
The only due they got was Nirvana nodding their style, but I rather listen to Shocking Blue.
She is absolutely Gorgeous, beautiful voice and so much fun to watch. So much better than the ones now days.She would of been fun to meet and have tea with.
Not the tee only...hell
True, I love her clothes too.
Was watching Hightower on Starz. Episode ended with this song. Never heard it before and was so surprised how old it was!!! Great song!!
and just recent a new clip! ruclips.net/video/3W3xMVTQlBc/видео.html
I wanna play that song, when i drive a Mustang on the german highway. Such a feeling!
Mariska Veres had a great vocal style.
One of the most underrated bands from that era!
That they never made in in the US, they were our dutch Woodstock performers, they easely can compete.
👋😃🇳🇱
Shocking Blue was very good. Good songs, good singing, good musicians.
I like the loud drumming most! My favourite Shocking Blue song is Hello Darkness.
Music my childhood, still amazing💖
It is true that some "people" seriously disliked this masterpiece
@surely they did never received a postcard
@@macarchers HAHAHAHA. , to be honest I listened to them for a while but eventually stopped as I never really liked her voice/way of singing,nothing wrong with it, it just annoys me a little somehow. It's a bit of a pity because the music is amazing.
@@user-pn7uc7ph2i as you said music is amazing,at less it made you smile
Legendary dutch band.... amazing song.
Very underrated band!
They were so good for their time.
They were truly ahead of their time...
I freaking love you Mariska!
This band is bigger then everything !!!!! ! !
Damn this is incredibly good! Great stuff and we are talkin about 1968!
1968 is WHY it is good!
half a century before its time.
surprised this band were not huge in uk,excellent
What A F#cking Awesome Soundtrack.... LoveThisNumber!!!

First time hearing this. Hard to believe this was 1968. Seems a lot more modern sounding. Great song!
Love this song!
What a piece of music !!!
To those complaining about the video, at least one has been made instead of a series of a few stills. There is another version like that, so go there and enjoy the long ad at the start! Nice job, great song, and drum sound, at first made me think it was a retro-style, but new song
Awesome 1960-years sound !
Bring me this time back again
Mariska, gipsy girl, killer voice!
Killer looks!!!
Goth before Goth.
this song rocks ...
Way way way better than today's music .
Yes, no comparison, I am from 57, we had super music and unique. I loved SB (awesome looking woman and powerful voice).
I wish l could send you a post card, Mariska. Miss you forever! xx
Als klein jongetje was ik toch wel heel verliefd op deze mooie vrouw ❤️
A CLASSIC!!! 🎸✨
Time never stops.
I love Mariska Veres,she was and always well be the most beautiful woman with long dark hair and looking into your soul eyes :X
You mean that wig? It's not her real hair.
@@MasthaX YES, the commenter meant HER BEAUTIFUL WIG that SHE HAD OWNED IT AS HERS AND WAS USING IT AS HER OWN HAIR. Eat your heart out, because we loved her hair the way it was.
This band rules !!!!!
Everyone comments on Mariska. She was great, no doubt, but Robbie was the one that made this band. His awesome guitar playing, his songwriting. He wrote every one of those songs. Not only guitar but he was an all around musician. Played, guitar, mandolin, saxophone, harmonica, sitar, and no telling how many other instruments. The guy was extremely talented. Mariska was pretty, and sang…that’s it!
That was awsome!
Fantastic..🎼🎵🎶🎸
i lovely rockn,roll. thank you very much.
Such insane vocals, so intense drums beat and Psychedelic guitars
Amazing tune!!!
🙂🙂
what a great song!
Mariska is amazing.
