thanks people for all the kind words. I was on the boat as second cameraman, these clips are made as a promotion for the W2 popvenue in 's-hertogenbosch. the footage for this clip is shot with 2 cameras and 1 mic, postproduction done by me. All people who helped making this video are volunteers at W2 popvenue. Just to give you some background info on the production of this video ;)
one of the most beautiful music videos I've ever watched ^_^ the song, Anneke's sweet voice, the ride with the boat and the beautiful sights... just stunning!
Also the tunnels provoide the perfect reverb in which to cocoon her gem of a voice ... Love the dripping water affect too. Even the natural elements pay homage to her .....
Thankyou so much kind sir for sending this little gem of a video.and with the translation too. I dont blame the spider - I would try to hitch a ride on Anneke's guitar too. Send me videos of her ANY time. Goodness knows why she isn't a global sensation by now. (well I know the answer to that - it's lack of the r'ight original song')
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW !! Absolutely splediforously, fantasmagorically, stupednously, stunningly, amazingly ... anegelically .......... BRILLIANT (spiders or no spiders).. She is the neareest thing to PERFECTION in a vocalist I have ever come across and will ever come across whilst on this earth.
So many talented woman out of Europe, including the wonderful-amazing Anneke van Giersbergen. Here in the USA we have stupid pop princesses that couldn't sing Mary Had A Little A Lamb without messing it up.
Don't worry. We all get a bit long winded when we talk about things that inspire us. :) "She wouldn't perform to 10 people on a boat in the channels unless there was a nationally syndicated 90 minute special on it. Or indeed an internationally released 3D movie!" That sums it up perfectly. Sponsored by pepsi and mcdonalds, of course. And there would not be spiders on that boat :):)
No it isn't. Anneke has performed it for a few years now at her acoustic shows, but she never recorded it. Damien Rice's Blower's Daughter and Frankie Goes To Hollywood's Power of Love are other stunning cover's she has sang and they can be found on her Pure Air record.
You too (U2) can tell this is a much superior version. And the spider can too. She floats my boat and I'd like her to play for me on a canal near to here. No spiders Anneke.
The attraction of the spider 0- besides being to Annelke of course is to the wispy bits of wire dangling from her guitar strings - with which to spin an extra sepcially strong web. Anneke has got me all tangled up in her web - no escaping it. Aaargh - don't crush me Anneke ....
ZOPS EN DOEKJE (the Lucky Luke Perry Story) ,,Zoals De Vader van de Zoon houdt, wil De Heilige Geest ook één Amen ontvangen.¨ - Word (Twog) -------- Anneke, De vrijheid die je in mijn pubertijd belichaamde, De trip over bergen en dalen die vooraan de Mandylion 'bangen'. Anneke zo lief en spontaan, dierenvriend in de volle maan, een hallo en een glimlach erachteraan, verdwaald in 's-Hertogenbosch maar...toch gedaan. Jouw te horen praten over… het bezoek van een vliegje en een spinnetje, kweekte het accent, de heimwee naar ,,een land waar mijn wieg heeft gestaan.” - De Deurzakkers Anneke soms zit het leven niet mee, toch hebben wij iets gemeen, ik vind Bono namelijk ook heel okay. Anneke voor ons ben je meer dan een lekker ding, TO US YOU'RE THE SWEETEST THING... ALSO!!! - tTC. Blessed be, ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5WybiA263bw.html
Yes, it's a fact that you must have a mediasexy image to get both attention and support from your record company. And of course this was the case all ready with the Beatles and co. back in the day. But today it's more about your image and such. Not the art you present to the world. Beatles and co. also made fantastic, groundbreaking music. Today's well known artists are too often just selling their image to people. Clothes, style, whatever. The actual art is secondary.
+TheMusitrip She does plenty more than "classic pop". Either way, it truly doesn't matter what she sings, anything that comes out of her mouth is auditory gold.
