Tijdens het Knoop in je Zakdoek Gala 2009 zingen de verstandelijk gehandicapte Isabelle Schreuder en haar grote idool Pia Douwes "Zing, Vecht, Huil, Bid, Lach, Werk en Bewonder", een hit van Ramses Shaffy.
Wat mij betreft, het absolute hoogtepunt van het Knoop-gala! Ik vind het prijzenswaardig dat ze op het laatste moment een ander nummer hebben gekozen; ze vonden het denk ik gewoon net iets te hoog gegrepen voor dit gala. Voor deze uitvoering neem ik mijn petje af. Mark my words... zij wordt een hele grote in theaterland... 5 platina sterren van mij!
I think Pia expresses that she is very impressed and touched by Isabelle's more than outstanding once-in-a-lifetime performance. She did very well herself too, Isabelle seems to insure her, but it looks like Pia wants to give full credit to Isabelle. The hugging afterwards is an expression of their musical victory. I don't know if anyone will ever know what the two of them literally said to each other. Veni! Vidi! Vici! They came, they saw, they victored! Carré was theirs!
The song is from the late Dutch cabaret singer Ramses Shaffy. Roughly, this song is about living your life to the max and always be positive and bright, no matter what depressive mood, deep trouble, bad ilness or other problems you will suffer from during your life. I shall translate the chorus: Sing, fight, cry, pray, laugh, work, and admire, not without us!
Unbelievable how great the two can do this! I can´t believe how much talent Isabelle has and how hearty Pia is! Thanks for uploading and can someone maybe translate, what the two say after the song?
