If you're that interested in him, whoever he is, look for it yourself.

Very much so, but no way was it number one for 6 weeks - 3 or 4 maybe. They were the first Dutch band to make number one in the UK. And it replaced Abba's Dancing Queen at number one, in a Eurotrash love-in.



The two biggest bands over here today are probably Kane (U2 wannabes) and Within Temptation (symphonic rock with a girl singer who thinks she's Kate Bush). Has anyone in the UK even heard of either of them?

Struggling to like a single band (that I've heard of) named on this thread. It seems the Dutch aren't as good at music as they are at Football

Quite right - four weeks.

The Dutch 'creative arts' pretty much died with Van Gogh in 1890. I've lived here 20 years and each year I become ever more convinced of this fact.

And it's f**king Carnaval again this coming weekend - four days of watered down shit beer, hilarious clown costumes and ruddy oompah music...

I can barely contain my excitement.

I once saw the world's alleged loudest band (at the time) Blue Cheer at a festival in Nijmegan. I have to say they blew away the Who's version of Summertime Blues for sheer energy and volume.
