NPO Radio 2 Top 2000 (2020) spectaculair geopend door Bart Arens | NPO Radio 2 Reaction! 

It wouldn’t be the Christmas holidays and New Year’s Eve without the Top 2000! These guys & girls over at NPO Radio 2 are absolutely amazing.

This one is still giving me the chills, the best mash-up he ever made, extra impressive in the empty Ziggo Dome. He usually shows his mash-up at the start of the yearly Top 2000 in December, in the "Top 2000 café", full of people. But "thanks to" Covid that wasn't possible in 2020 and 2021, that's why it happened differently, without audience.

Bart Arens is a dj with a radio show on radio 2 on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 12 a.m. At the end of the previous show he always plays a piano version of the song that will be the first one he will play and anyone can guess what that song will be. Then they can sing their own short version of that song. It is very funny. The dutch song being played after the Queen song is called Iedereen is van de wereld by a band called The Scene. Unfortunately the singer called The Lau died of cancer in 2015. The title is roughly translated as Everyone belongs to the world, and the world belongs to everyone. I think it is one of the most beautiful lines.

the curtain falling and seeing all those empty spaces. All hyped up and then that. First song the scene: iedereen is van de wereld *en de wereld is van iedereen*. Basicly everyone on this planet is the same and the planet belongs to us all. Singer died a few years back but the song is so powerfull.

This is Bart Arens best one so far. Followed by 2021.

The band “the streamers” was formed especially for shows in covid times. The band included some of the country’s biggest popstars ! And they performed several shows that streamed live

Great show!! Love the mash ups! 🎤🎶💜 It's been a heavy two years for everyone! Hope life is starting to be good again

Most years the number 1 of the Top 2000 are Queen with Bohemian Rhapsody or The Eagles with Hotel California. This time is was Danny Vera with Rollercoaster, in this video sung by him together with, I hope you recognized, Ilse de Lange - Bart from Racoon - miss Montreal - Guus Meeuwis - Edsilia Rombley - Stef Bos and Snelle. Finally once a song from a Dutch singer on number 1. Yeah!! About time. 🥳😄😄 Great opening as you said for everybody and nobody. Glad you enjoyed it so much.

Holy shit... Listened to the top 2000 for decades. Had no idea of this special the past years. Don't care much for pop music at all, but these mashups are top notch!

Wow what a spine tingling, emotional mash-up .. brilliantly done indeed.

Fantastic mix of emiotions and music. Music is emotiton Emotion is music. Love this clip❤️❤️❤️.

Never seen it. What a great prologue! Love your reaction!

It's great! And before it begins there is a top 2000 quiz for a few weeks on television with "famous" Dutch singers, DJ's etc. And they give special short stories behind songs. Perhaps there is a way you can join it this year on your channel with some of your subscribers. If you want. And dare...? 😁

Fireworks... Dutch Fireworks... did I hear ass? Dutch Fireworks from the ass? 🤣 Gotta love you loving the Dutch way of putting on a show the way you do.

Actually the Top 2000 started out on radio 2 (basically the 2nd national radio channel, from before there were even commercial channels [I mean the channel not the Top 2000]) as a gig for the 2K event. It was like what the x do we need to do to celebrate the new millenium. And the damn gig still exists :D It reminded me of a Herman van Veen song called Hilversum 3 (or III). Actually all national broadcasting, both radio and tv started out in a city called Hilversum, where they still have most of non-commercial broadcasters. So the channels before simply calling them Radio 1/2/3 etc where called Hilversum 1/2/3 etc. For the video see ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RwFdUrF5vkQ.html

This was an "I was having a One Man Party and it was Awesome!" xD

Love how you actually understand the Dutch

Very spectacular opening , i missed it or did not know it was on TV

Damn, your pronunciation of Arens was petty much spot on.

Wow sooooo goood!!!!!! You can dona quiz which songs you hear in this awesome mix 😂

You should be there this year in the Top 2000 café in Hilversum

Every year they also do an evening show where they also visit artists or writers to talk about their songs, also a great part of the Top 2000 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sjCVG3mPJUg.html

Paul....Ik hef het glas op jouw gezondheid!

Having Imagine by John Lennon and the monologue by Eminem overlaid is awesome.

NPO Radio 2 Top 2000 (2021)

Before your 2nd stop they said "iedereen is van de wereld en de wereld is van iedereen"

There is a new one. 2022 version

😊😊

dude look at a dutch tv series called flodder ( even has movies, 1 that takes place in New york ( was filmed there even) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-o3iO9ni2hg0.html&ab_channel=FlodderInBeeld < trailer of the movie. Rude series about a trailer park like family in a very high end neighbourhood . Think reno 911 , trailer park boys kind of stuff!
