Hans Teeuwen - Nostrademus

[guardiangi6]

he should never have done this....

he should have kept it at dutch...

anale sex... met dooie dieren!

maar bij de dames van halal maakt ie zn beste grappen xD preutse moslima's ftw xD

and bekironur i completely agree with you like most dutch(inclusing myself im afraid) our accent is horible :p

[87Crimineeltjuh87]

We.. Holland, has the best soccerplayers of the world.

The best goalkeeper

The dartplayer

The best DJ

One of the best pokerplayers

The best beer =P

and offcourse the best comedians.

well.... Go Holland! :p

[Sanderdark]

Best beer :O? No , Belgium has the best beer ^^

[nlbass]

Hell no!

GO holland!! In dutch it's funnier

[berrybakker]

No way! :')

[87Crimineeltjuh87]

omdat?

[berrybakker]

Best DJ? No way!

Best beer? No way!

[WesterPool]

the best beer?

Ja hallo.. zeikwater:p

[bekironur]

Was this performed in Amsterdam? If so, why is it in English? The way he pronounces Nostradamus irritates me, but besides that it's a good a performance.

[Plas13]

dutch version is way better =/

[arentvangent]

he has a dutch and english version

[Musicman1913]

fucking funny en ik ben nederlands deze is masterlijk

[Plas13]

dutch version is waaaay better

die stond em goed!

[Teunkabouter44]

the dutch version is much funnier i agree this one is worse

[Jaerit]

Why he got "booed" away was because the people at the festival were waiting for some other guy and were dissapointed when he came on and they had to wait longer. quite funny is that atm he is quite the rising star in the UK

[Rush1212]

This guy got booed off at a festival I was at for doing this shit.

[JumpyAssasin]

in dutch its funnier

[XchrixX]

there isnt a king of comedians...

its only what you preffer :)

[elboydo]

damn this is missing 2 verses. i like the other 2 verses most lol

[blackman767]

ja hij is weleen cole kerel

[hefaistros]

It was better in dutch...!

this way it wasn't really funny

[rifris2]

he isn't the best comedian from holland.. their are much better comedians..

[Casdebom]

No, hans teeuwen is the king

[mikiejjjjjjjjjjjjjjj]

like...??

[SRADracer]

it's a shame that some people don't speak dutch. His dutch jokes are great.

[Bagheeraah]

he's amazing!

[stuffonyourcat]

It's the point that it doesn't go anywhere, that's why it's funny.

[ownmageBack]

xD

i'm dutch and beleve me

he's the best comedian ever.

the dutch version is much better, the translation is fucked up, and it doesn't fit with his style.

but still, it's hans so it's funny.

Nostradamus me z'n strakke groene broek. die stond hem goed xD

(it means nostradamus with his trousers green and thight, he looked alright)

if u like this, watch the dutch version, his voice is so much funyer there

[purvesss]

I'll give it a try m8 - cheers!

[spitju]

herman finkers is ook lijp :P

[davyjoos]

he IS great !!!

[Troepam]

Definately don't agree.

[purvesss]

pffffff!! i'm british and find this fucking hilarious - hans has a pretty hardcore following in the UK as it happens. still, i wish i could understand the dutch version too...

[DoctorDietz]

I respect you respecting the Dutch.

Thanks for respecting me :)

Respect!

[Lycan87]

idiot

[moltenriches]

well he didn't prepare it very well, this is good up to the first chorus, all downhill from there, he may be a good comedian, but his nostrademus song is awful, btw i didn't suggest he improvised all the time it was one of his so called 'fans'

[tiaxanderson]

It's supposed to make no sense at all, sometimes he acts like a complete idiot and mooron. That's why we love him :P

[moltenriches]

well i still prefer british comedy

[brnjel]

hahaha u just don't get it..

[moltenriches]

i know, because i have a sense of humour :D

[jumpfreak12]

hij is echt grappig ik kom niety meer bij

[uzemakistyle]

lol but the dutch version is better

but i hope there are more

[superssjtrunks]

that people already laugh when you're getting some candy from the store, this programme on TV sucks balls, the comedians arent funny

only Hans is!

[tiwaendewi]

Brilliant! !!!!

[EMOBANGER666]

how did he think this would sound good in english?he manages to make it ok though

[IpsaPaphum]

Hm, in Dutch we would call this 'vaag'.

[arwendon]

met een dikke bobbel dikke dikke bobbel ja die dikke lul van nostradamus

[pcottaar]

Great

[wilbertoord1]

he's much better in dutch

[ACtje59]

HAHAHAHA omg i love this song!

[ScrambledPussy]

ach, hou je bek

[moltenriches]

this was mildly funny from the start to the end of the first chorus, the came the second verse: 'his name was nostrademus he sometimes went to a bar and then he started making trouble' for some unknown reason here he gets a laugh, he continues: 'then the people said to nostrademus you might be good at predicting, but that doesn't mean you can go on causing trouble everywhere' he then gets an even bigger laugh! i'm sorry but how is any of what i quoted actually funny? it doesn't go anywhere!

[moltenriches]

wow whoever put thumbs down on my comment is dumb and has no sense of humour

[Onverantwoord]

no, but i think britisch people cant laugh about something like this,

it just dutch humor:P

[moltenriches]

yeah we cant, because to british people this isn't comedy, because it lacks anything funny, except maybe the first verse i'll give him that, but the rest is out of time and doesn't go anywhere

[can0mark]

You clearly dont understand the song. It is written and performed in such a way that it doesnt make any sense.

It's like, verbal slapstick.

[moltenriches]

but that just makes it shit, not funny, it's almost as bad as deadbird

[AntiWarrock]

Supposed to be...

[zNezz]

dumpert kroon, +1 :']

[thijsairskater]

im dutch :P i have see this video on comedy central...

[arri999]

The Best too bad he doesnt say ''nice'' things about Muslims here. he does in the dutch acts.He freaking tells 2 muslims who are swearing at them that they shouldnt be so arrogant XD

[DENBOSCH123]

exactly xglow Americans dont understand it I guess...just go to see Achmed the dead terrorist maybe that is something you understand!!!!

[xglow911]

Lol u idiot he doesnt forget the words its part of the act. This guy's entire comedy reportoire is based on the fact that every audiance must think hes nuts! Thats whats funny about it in the first place.

[royvanvugt]

waar vind ik meer uit deze show!!?

[toxic420timothy]

Keep It Dutch Hans, In Het nederlands is ie the best!,

[T1V1D]

Hansje Teeuwen ojoyojoy-jojoy! hij is VET! in english: little hans teeuwen oyoyoyoy-yoyoy! he's AWSOME!

[WWEonDrums]

hans teeuwen is from netherlands

nederlandse versie is beter

[hellohello66666]

Fucking hell, and these freaks are laughing? I had to sit through this shit at latitude, he got booed off

[NikiCookie]

Good thing you are a retard, it shows how good he really is.

[hellohello66666]

Yeh read that sentence again and see if it makes sense... i was one of 2 thousand people simultaneously booing you realise, so i guess they were all "retards" too

[NikiCookie]

Well, if they were all people like you, odds are that they were indeed retards.

Furthermore, he seems to be quite successful in England as well. Maybe you guys booed because, being the rebel that you are, you found it exciting to dislike something that many people like? ;) im on to you!

[hellohello66666]

Well if he entertains you then fine, but the best Holland can offer in the way of comedy is pretty crappy. I dunno, maybe its a cultural thing you have to understand to me this is a guy who is singing about nothing in particular and forgetting the words!

P.S i have NOTHING against Holland, in all seriousness, it is the best country in the world, i envy it. Like no crime, lowest teen pregnancy rate in Europe, and the people are so frikin friendly! Im moving as soon as i can :)!

[NikiCookie]

You don't seem to understand it's an act. He ACTS as if he's forgotten the words.

[hellohello66666]

Is that supposed to excuse him from this pathetic "act"?? Seriously cant you tell me why he is pretending to forget the words??

[NikiCookie]

Because that's part of the act you numbskull.

He PRETENDS to be singing a rhyming song, then PRETRNDS to forget the words and PRETENDS to make them up as he goes, making the song into a funny non-rhyming joke act.

If you can't realise this yourself you're obviously of a lower IQ than the average people who enjoy his shows.

[hellohello66666]

Duh i realised WHAT he was DOING numbskull i said WHY

[NikiCookie]

I just told you that. L2read idiot.

If all the people at wherever you're from have the same sense of humour as you do, i dont want to go there.

[hellohello66666]

It's childish, unintelligent and simple, it might make a 6 yr old laugh, i would consider hiring this guy as a clown for my brother's class and i think even they would have humour above this.

I want to know, do you know any english comedians and if you do, surely you can tell the difference between their material and this bullshit. All this is is a guy tapping on a drum while pretending to forget words to a simple song HOW DO YOU FIND THAT FUNNY!!?? I DONT UNDERSTAND!!

[NikiCookie]

If you dont understand you are obviously not the target audience and you should just stfu.

But if you hate it so much, why are you even youtubing it?

[hellohello66666]

Im youtubing it because i saw him live at latitude, he got booed off, and i want to understand why the hell he was booked! I thought he might have other, better material, i was mistaken...

And for the last time, i understand it, i know what he is doing but i dont find it funny because it is undeveloped, childish humour and im trying to understand why dutch people see differently!

[crippled82]

Holland likes him, bcause of hard and unexpected jokes, how he improvises and of the nonsense.

This act is partially improvised nonsense ;)

He just tries to be original.

[jeomabille]

he IS.

[moltenriches]

ross nobles acts are pretty much all improvised, but the jokes actually make sense or it's just silly humour.

[crippled82]

His acts are self explanatory, enjoy it or hate it. :)

[moltenriches]

yeah, the general conception seems to be the latter

[yuriadriaans]

if you would see his show Dat dan weer wel' in English you would understand what a complete genius he is.

[moltenriches]

yes he's a genius. please get real, his improvising on this is awful, it doesn't go anywhere, yet ross noble can improvise a whole act and leave the crowd in stitches, if this crowd thinks hans is funny, they either have no sense of humour at all, or they have really sensitive funny bones in which case if they saw any british comedian they'd probably die from laughing too much

[crippled82]

Who cares, it's one of many acts. I like Teeuwen, but this one I thought was a bit dumb.

[moltenriches]

ha! lol, this is the act he was doing when he got booed off at latitude

[crippled82]

It's his only english act.

[moltenriches]

wow, he really didn't choose very well did he

[pimhond]

go home man, probably youre just one of those guys who think jeff dunham is funy

[hellohello66666]

I am home dillweed :D If you can explain to me what is funny about this act as an adult viewer im all ears.

Plus, who the hell is jeff dunham. I'll stick with bill Bailey and Rich Hall thank you very much. Those are examples of proper comedians :)

[moltenriches]

well he is, you know, he actually has an act

[Onverantwoord]

than its not his problem but yours, because you dont understand

[hellohello66666]

i understand! I just dont understand a) why he is doing a comedy act fit for a 6 year old and why are being laughing! Seriously if youcan explain why you find it funny im all ears

[robbjee]

a) The Dutch version is 1000x better

b) His other stuff is not fit for a 6 year old, more for 16 years and older.

And the reason why they laugh is because he's weird, and he ROCKS!!!

[hellohello66666]

alright well i can understand that language doesnt translate its power across into english so fair enough

[flagrarus]

Well you can't base the comedy of an entire country on one act, this isn't usual in the Netherlands either. And there is crime Holland, maybe we're just better at hiding it ;)

[hellohello66666]

i didnt, and dude im complimenting holland!

[flagrarus]

i know, and i don't really care whether you compliment or insult holland.

P.S.: If you are really planning on moving to Holland, be prepared to hear a lot of whining about the weather ;) Apparently, it's always too hot/too cold and it's always raining except when we want it to rain...

[hellohello66666]

nah i dont care you should see england!. I went through customs in shkippol airport and the customs guys were so nice then i got to the USA customs, they were all bastards!!

[baartje94]

HANS TEEUWEN FTW !!

[alonatje]

Why even asking of he is German?

Left in the corner stands:

Hans Teeuwen

Amsterdam

Like duh! XD

[I know my English isn't good]

[Santaslave666]

Lol this is pretty good. This act was also on US television.. What is this guy, german?

[0LordLink0]

no dumb-ass, he's the best dutch comedian.

don't compair him with germans!!!!!!!!

[hellohello66666]

Oh my God! Americans know NOTHING about countries outside of the states. Do the BIG letters in the video saying "Amsterdam" mean nothing?? Capitol of Holland, theres a hint

[guyt1234]

Zelfs in het engels is maakt hij het vet

[NeoTheLizard]

He has about the same feeling for rythm as I do. Lol.

[Telrunya9]

His name was Nostrademus he once met those little people... Nastrademus

Ge-wel-dig XD

[calastiur]

He..he had an aunt that had a very nice face, and shall always said ''alright! come lets go!'' XD

[calastiur]

Ik vindt de engelse versie net zo leuk als de nederlandse. :o

[graaftell]

VIND BIJNA ALLES EUK BEHALVE DEZE

[kimirjam]

kijk dan niet.......

[jasona380]

[Mongooltjuh1]

[Mongooltjuh1]

Best dutch comedian ever

[nickbuitenboek]

he's veryy good !

I'am dutch , and he is Awasome !

srry for my bad english ;):P

[Volksgrenadier2006]

Why isnt the last part not posted, or isn't it included in the english part?

[Madhofd]

hahahaha,soooo fucking random XD LOL

[TheConspiracyofSeeds]

Hero.

[ryoneer]

like the dutch version better

[CF1975]

You are absolutely right. It remains very clever and funny, but some essential things from the Dutch version get lost.

[GunsGoBang74]

Im dutch and he's awesome!

[TreehuggingBosBiatch]

The dutch version is much funier.. But this one's OK too.. Think it's kinda cool that Hans got in such a program as The World Stands Up!

[Robbeltje]

Best Dutch stand-up comedian ever!

Pretty cruel , and funny as hell!

[DomIstKrieg]

i think its pretty damn funny.

[TheStartButton]

Brilliant!

[BiffChunksteak]

Perhaps Teeuwen forgot the British audiences did not know him, nor did they share any other of the cultural references, context or history that Teeuwens act hinges upon, with the original Dutch audience for which the act was intended. Timing and interaction work differently for British comedy audiences than they do for Dutch audiences. Teeuwen should have rewritten the act or created something new instead of thinking he'd get away with a mere (and poor) translation.

[Spaatjeblauw]

Thanks punk,

Go bore your friends with your intellectual bullshit, go watch 2 pints of lager and compare it to Teeuwen. Britisch comedy sucks donkey balls

[stommelompepoep10]

hans teeuwen is de beste nederlandse cabaretjee(ofzoiets) ik hadniet eens door dat sommigen hem slecht vonden nou ja maar toch is de nederlandse vesrsie leuker(met een dikke bobbel..in die strakke groene broek).

[LukeAlexS]

Rufus Hound introduced him too quickly, so when he came on a lot of the crowd were leaving for Foals or something. So he lost the crowd's confidence right from the start.

I thought it was good, I certianly 'got' what he was doing, like Andy Kaufman in a way. He didn't deserve the booing, people were just restless waiting for Omid Jalili maybe

[clairetaggart1]

oh and another thing -sorry to rant- in that wonderfully empowering and revolutionary speech about terrorism omid djalili did, that got so much tumultuous applause, he pretty much quoted several previous speeches of hans teeuwen's!

[clairetaggart1]

he was fantastic! we were absolutely wetting ourselves. we gave him a standing ovation. i am disappointed that u ppl that liked him just let him b booed. every1 just went with the flow -idiots who clearly didn't understand his act. omid djalili did almost exactly the same thing (godzilla) & every1 thought it was hilarious! i'm just glad that u ppl who booed him made arses of urselves when the compare told that crap joke (2 take the piss out of u- incase u didn't get that either) & u all laughed!

[weirdlass]

i was there aswell and he couldn't throw that ikea bin right,there was a girl next to me though and she couldn't stop laughing

[clairetaggart1]

that was probably me! fantastic! come on, that was the point of his act.

[MissEMurder]

I too was at Latitude and I honestly thought he was being bad on purpose for the majority of his set... but there was no final punch line or anything. It was truly awful.

It was silly to put him on so late in the festival as it certainly left a bad taste in my mouth. The rest of the comedy was generally of a brilliant standard though.

[pacman3111]

He performed at the Latitude music festival in Suffolk, England this weekend and was so bad he was heckled by the crowd. He did this song and tried to to get the crowd to say "he looked alright" but I managed to get the whole crowd to say "fuck off" instead......he is pants, maybe funny in Dutch but it really doesn't work in English if so.

[kizzyontay52]

Yeh, I was there, it was so painful to watch. And the crowd started shouting "YOU'RE SHITE" instead of "he looked alright".

He got booed of the stage in the end because he was so awful. I doubt he could hack it as a children's entertainer.

Omid Djalili made up for things though XD

[can0mark]

I cant speak for the rest of his set (since I obviously didnt see it). But if he performed this song the way he performed it here then I wonder why people were heckling him.

[xeph20]

bah the english version sux :(

rlly he POWNS in dutch :D

he is so damn funny >:D

[lazartjuh]

U ROCK!! :D

[RamSpoar]

jaaaaeeeeees :-P

[coolveertje]

hahaha het publiek reageert steeds een beetje laat met "he looked allright"

[rrrorkk]

lol, very funny

[fpsdough]

i laughed

no really, i did

not...

[revolvingdoor10]

then you have a problem ;)

[0pudding0]

he much better in dutch

[supermeneer]

ik ben zo trots...

[glenndraak]

i live in holland

hand is very populair in our country

he's f*cking funnyXD

[Roele13]

ja deze is ook in et nederlands

[LiovaElise]

He looks allright

..

I mean nostrademus

[HoneyBadgerz]

He's much better in dutch :)

[LiovaElise]

dutch version is longer and funnier

No english sense of humour, but hans teeuwen's sense of humour :)

how the hell do you say Hans Teeuwen in english!?

Hens teejwun ?

In nederlands kklink stuk beter

[ladeninlogen]

morrywinn english sense of humor suck my ba**s

[paardomg]

English sense of humour zegt die gast dan

dat ie is effe mooi een fiets gaat kopen

ja ik heb nu wel een grote bek tegen morrywinn, want hij kan me toch nie verstaan.

RESPECT

[godveir]

je hebt gelijk. Die engelsen denken dan ook dat ze humor hebben uitgevonden.

Hans Teeuwen's humor is typisch Hans Teeuwen en niets anders, en ik denk dat dat duidelijk genoeg is.

Mij als Belg hoor je toch ook niet zeggen: nou ja, dat is wel een beetje belgische humor dat die Nederlander heeft, ja. ?

[paardomg]

Idd, I yet have to see someone as good/funny, or even HALF as funny as him.

And this was way better in Dutch =)

[morrywinn]

Haha kben nederlands, maar k zal t maar opvatten als compliment =)

Ik zei SOMEWHAT english, wat ik daarvoor ook heb onderbouwt door te zeggen dat t absurde een typische eigenschap is van engelse humor (feit). De nederlanders zijn daar niet mee gekomen.

Nou vind ik over het algemeen NLse cabaratiers een stuk beter dan engelse, (engelse cabaratiers bestaan eik niet, alleen comedians), maar je van kunt sommige elementen uit hans' werk niet ontkennen dat ze veel met britse gemeen hebben.

[trashedlostandhungry]

uhu, de enige engelse komieken die rule zen de gaste vn monty python de rest suckt hard suprdroog allemaal

[agamandia]

Ik vind die understatement humor van de Britten wel tof. Iemand die D-Day overleeft en dan, in een interview zegt: "Ja, het was wel een beetje onaangenaam." :D

[r0bbae]

hahahahhahaha wat een fucking held is het ook he

[bottenbreker24]

man, die kan echt alles ;)

[draadje1979]

In Dutch it's much better..

[TheStartButton]

MORE!

[SgtZippzapp]

he once met these little ppl...NOSTRADAMUS!!

[harkcore]

Truely a Dadaïst =]
