Cornelis Vreeswijk - Deirdres Samba

[Rayneenights]

He spoke and sang in swedish with swedish accent. He was 12 years old when he came to Sweden and learned swedish in just a few months.

[DMF6666]

this song in dutch would be great!

[DMF6666]

kan iemand alsjeblieft dit nr in het nederlands uploaden!!!

[COTTESITO]

exelente cantante!! un rockanrolla total!!

[mef83]

Handlar väl om prostitution?

@2nanfer - sorry mate, if CHICO BUARQUE could ever choose a guy to do this in Swedish it would be Cornelis. What you are doing is like calling CHICO BUARQUE a cheap idiot for making a Chet Baker cover. You just have no idea who Cornelis is. The man was nothing short of genious.

[2nanfer]

@abonpost He can be a cheap idiot but would never have the same attitude (stereotypin poor women as prostitutes). I aint talkin about music here "mate" (music=chemistry) although this "much more straight forward text" really irritated me (I have the impression that europeans think they know more about other countries than natives themselves). Since Im the ignorant here would you mind naming Chet Bakers song pliz, got curious about that. ps. I really dont g*** a f*** to who Cornelis is.

[Rapeattack]

Dessa FI-fientliga låtar är så osvenskt som finns! han var från ett land där freiheit existerar på mångt flere plan än i sverige. Tacka faan att han inte ville bli svensk!

[2nanfer]

I suppose this a cover from Chico Buarque's song. Look after "Chico Buarque" song "Quem te viu quem te ve".

[ianmorgan70]

@2nanfer. it's not really a cover. This text is much more straight forward than "Quem Te Viu, Quem Te Vê" and tells (in first person) about a very poor girl who sells samba lessons on the beach. It's obvious from the text that she sells other services as well.

("And if you feel like making love

we've ended up in the right place.

Forbidden, of course,

but hotels are so very dreary.")

I know it's 4 months since you posted, but I felt you deserved a reply.

[2nanfer]

@ianmorgan70 - As I feared, cheap plaggio. He uses the song to make his money and implicitly says Brazilian ladies are whores. What a joke "straight forward text". Hes just not man enough to do that in Brazil and in Brazilian. Just to register here: CHICO BUARQUE who MADE THIS SONG and the corresponding lyrics to it meant something about how a woman and her attitudes towards a man have changed with time. Jazz is out there. Choro, Samba, Bossa has been played in Brazil and been sung in Brazilian.

[NoMoarOxygen]

@2nanfer I don't get your point. Yes, he's calling Brazilians sluts, yes, he makes money on it. No, he's not Brazilian. Why would he sing about this in Brazil?

[MoffeAnimal]

Dåligt groove!!

[120hazz]

du er noller er noller har du penge og tid er du noller.

[JakeDaMass]

Säljer man dans på gatorna i Brasilien..? Eller är det en metafor för..ja, det jag tänker på..

[ClausYugi]

Er stor fan af Cornelis sange - og må skamfuldt indrømme at svensk sprog er meget smukkere end dansk, når der skal synges.........

[TheSteensen]

@ClausYugi jeg er desværre enig claus..

[MortenBondePedersen]

@ClausYugi Ingen tvivl om det...

[Ntittare]

När jag var barn tyckte min mamma om att ta fram gitarren och spela och sjunga den här låten och tvinga mig att sjunga med. Sedan dess har jag ogillat den här sången.

[abby161919]

o fan..

[teklabrohog50ar]

Vilken underbar sångröst...och känsla.

[Silverforeskin]

Han är inte bra han är Gud..

[Kyryukun]

jag gillar det!! han singer mycket bra

[GitteMarika]

Mycket bra! Jag tror han har flyttat till Sverige då han war ett lite barn..(12 år eller så). So jag tänker det är logisk han sjunga utan accent.

Jämförde med Cornelis, min svenska är so jättedaligt, men jag syssla att bättra dett :-)

[Jornev]

Svenskan fungerar fint såhär långt! ^^

[djsliverman]

did you translate that text with google translate

[intelligentpizza]

He is singing about the Rio that I knew as a child in the 1970s.

[intelligentpizza]

My former swedish girlfriend from Stockholm had bought me all of his songs. I am English but I lived as a child in Rio de Janeiro and I can tell you that he is very talented. I also like Veronica and other even better tracks. He was so talented. I love hearing him. It is deep and very musical and interesting how he does it.

[Jagvillhejhej]

HE HAS NO ACCENT! He learned swedish by reading swedish literature and poems in the local library, like everydag for five years.

[mrsanbro]

idiot, kan det bero på att han är holländare!!!!!

[Jagvillhejhej]

Hej. Personen i fråga undrade om han bröt när han talade svenska. Och jag förklarade att han inte gjorde det. Tänk ett steg till

[getsallad]

Glöm inte Fantomen!

[ellandelachapelle]

Great man! Dutch-Swede who wrote Brazilian sambas! :-D

[reyesnyhc]

he didnt write it the famous Chico Buarque de Hollanda is the one behind this song

[BaboonBro]

err... The melody, not the "song".

[Keijz74]

Wonderful. Nice picture of him! He made a lot of sambas. Cornelis Vreeswijk lives! His dutch songs are also very good in my opinion.

:o)# Hi from the Netherlands.

[Aquawit]

Kung Cornelius i toppform. skön bild :)

[Timalexkvalem]

Skriven av den brasilianska poeten och kompositören Chico Buarque de Hollanda.

Quem te viu, quem te ve

[651019lovexx]

Tack Cornelis-du är bäst !!!!!!!!

[Deksterish]

forever young! ls/98

[sorenpg]

Super great song.. Relaxing..

[t1i1g1g1e1]

No accent what so ever (If you don´t count his pronounced Stockholm accent) He did however record a lot of his songs in dutch aswell.

[BesACB]

Great singer. I've always wondered how much of a Dutch accent did Vreeswijk have and is that part of his charm?

[thobrik]

No particular accent at all - but that doesn't reduce his charm ;)

[Krica81]

@thobrik No dutch accent what so ever......

[getsallad]

@thobrik He actually had quite a distinct Stockholm accent, but yeah, he had no Dutch accent whatsoever.

[DMF6666]

@BesACB

the dutch version would be nice!

[Sehda]

@BesACB Actually he got a Stockholm accent, can't hear any dutch there.

[im4everskilled]

@BesACB He didn't have any accent at all.

[Xozny]

@BesACB Actually he adopted a Stockholm accent. You can’t hear that he’s not from Sweden at all and his Swedish is better than most Swedes’ today.

[BaboonBro]

Prat om att hon snott delar av den.

[sambatastisk]

Jeg har lige hørt denne sang på portugisisk i Brasilien, eller ihvertfald en der er meget tæt på. Hvem har skrevet musikken?

[theisogtrille]

dejlig sang.. super stemme og rytme

[Hemulen40]

Geni !

Men var fan E alla rörliga bilder ? Finns ju tietals mil med cornelisinspelningar ...

[thobrik]

Vet inte, inget som jag fått tag på.

[Hemulen40]

Hälsn. / Hemulen40/Per Nordström
