  • 6 mensen weeten totaal niet wat ECHTE music is , die 6 zullen zeeker naar justin bieber of selena gomez luisteren ,,,pffff

    

  • Ik ben verliefd op dit nummer

  • helemaal te gek

  • Kakva užasna snaga.

  • belle voix, belle interprétation en général de cette chanteuse que je ne connaissais pas, dont les versions sont pas mal du tout.

    par contre pour cette chanson il lui manque je pense...avoir passé quelques mois dans une jolie caserne pour en comprendre tout le sens...et toute la haine

  • heel mooi!

  • prachtig

  • Le grand Jacques Brel lui-même aurait admiré l'interprétation de cette jeune fille. Bravo Wende, tu as des "tripes" breliennes :-) Heel goed gedaan Wende.

  • Superbe ! un réel plaisir ? Amitiés du sud de la FRANCE.

  • Du charactère !!!

  • I love it!! As Ella Fitzgerald said, "Never heard a girl sing it before". She was talking about 'Mack the Knife' (Die Moritat von Mackie Messer)

  • Hildegard Knef did that, amazingly well. Ella said something like: "The great singer without a voice"

  • Haha gelukkig is hier dan een volgende reactie. Van mij mag ze nog heel vaak zingen

  • Ze is gewoon een lekker mokkel. Maar Engelsen moeten dat in veel woorden uitleggen. hahaha

  • en na het commentaar lacht ze eindelijk écht!

  • I like the fact that you can see she knows what the lyrics are about.

    Her face shows so much expression while she's singing. Something that is missed with a whole lot of other singers.

    Respect Wende.

  • Dit is meer de rustige versie. Ik vind die uitbarsting(en) op de Uitmarkt zo mooi. Ze doet nu wel die climax aan het einde maar de muziek doet niet mee, beetje jammer.

  • Je hoort wel eens iemand Brel zingen dat je denkt: "Nou, komt bij Brel in de buurt." Maar dat je iemand Brel hoort zingen dat je denkt: "Brel go home!". Dat hoor je toch zelden.

  • Wende outdoes Brel here in a way that would have made Derrida (and his deconstructivism) smile. Quelle femme, quelle femme!

  • Her name doesn't look french at all

    But she's got a perfect french pronounciation ,

    so I'm kinda confused lol ..

    What's her origins ?

    Anyway I like this version ,

    Well done . =]

  • Well, that's a long story. I feel quite nerdy knowing all this, but ok.

    She's dutch, but born in England, lived in Indonesia for several years and then lived in Guinnee Bissau, which is in Africa, where she learned french on an international school. When she was about 9 years old she went back to The Netherlands. So you know now! :-)

  • @roxannehellevoort Guinnee Bissau is since it's origine located in South-America ^^

  • She is Dutch

  • She's Dutch :-D

  • @Yasmeenaaaa

    She is dutch comes from friesland that's a region in the north of holland.

  • @annemiekharing Wende has never lived in Friesland , I gues you switched Wende with Nynke Laverman . She sings in the Friesian language.

  • uh..brel its not but its pretty good as it is

  • Heel mooi.

  • I don't like Wende Snijders' style at all, but this seems to be the only Brel song that suits her singing style. So this is okay. Brel is still 1000 times better, obviously.

  • Before you start judging her. Go to a live concert of her. She is one of the performers that will grab you by the throat and will not let you go before she is ready with you. She is not Brel, no she is Wende Snijders. But like him she lives threw each and every song she sings. The one time I saw her live I forgot all about the Brel version. Live it is is just you and her. She makes it very personal.

    Btw she lived in Guinea Bissau not Senegal. She calls French the language of her childhood

  • I heard this form M and Camille, whose is the original?

  • Jaques brelle

  • Ik vind het ook te veel gespeeld en ik vind de versie van brel ook beter.

    Maar het klinkt wel leuk..

  • this has none of the power, the passion and the grandeur of the original.

  • ik vind het teveel gespeeld, bij brel voelt het natuurlijker

  • Volgende !!!!!!!

  • she knows what she's singing she lived in sengal for a couple of years i thought. and the explanation she gave for singing this song is that the whole world is a brothel in a way

  • She lives in the north of the Netherlands. Hahahaha. Her French is just good...

  • I would like to know what all the french people are saying. Do you guys think it's good overall, or not so much?

  • C'est bonne cette version, mais moi je préfère M. Brel! Elle semble chanter avec bcp de engagement, mais moi je doute qu'elle sache ce qu'elle dit exactement. Bien que l'explication de Joost Prinsen soit possible (que le monde entier soit un bordel et que tout le mond soivent des 'prostituants')

    I'd rather have Brel sing it. I'm not sure if she knows exactly what she's singing, though Mister Prinsen's explanation makes it sound convincing.

  • Why do you wonder whether she knows what she's singing? Do you wonder whether Brel, or any other singer of this song, knows what he's singing? is it because she's a woman (and you believe only men can understand men) or because she's not French (and you believe only the French can understand French)?

  • Bien Tabarnac, oui, realise quelque choses, premierement, les hommes et les femmes sont differents, les francais et les alemends, les englais et les cantonais, vivent tous dans un monde different, a cause de ce que chaques mot sont venus a representer... ne fais pas chier a dire que mr. Kirrekurt1 est raciste ou sexiste. Personellement j'aime la representation de mme. Snijders, mais qu'il dise quelle ne sache pas ce qu'elle chante est parfaitement valable puice qu'elle n'est pas Brel, et seul...

  • la personne qui a ecris sa chanson peuvre vraiment l'interpretter puisque nous ne pourrons jamais etre dans l'espris de Mr. Brel.

    P.S.: elle est vraiment cute

  • Schubert was not an exceptional piano player. Do you think that no one can play Schubert's piano sonatas better than poor Schubert himself?

    Do you think Charles Dumont and Mack David could sing 'Je ne regrette rien' and 'La vie en rose' better than Edith Piaf - just because they wrote it?

    Is any version of "Windmills of your mind" by Michel Legrand better than by Mireille Matthieu, Noel Harrison's or ?

    Can Benny & Bjorn sing ABBA songs better than Agnetha & Frida?

    You must be kidding.

  • lol just cause you can state a couple artists that did covers it doesnt mean you have an arguement. youre just hoping i dont know what youre talking about... and what i am saying is that you cant fully understand some one else's thoughts, and therefore can't possibly express yourself the same way, than anyone else never mind those foreing or with a different sex, (if you dont get my point... look at your hand, now try to be your hand...you can't! And it the same for humans)but they CAN make good

  • covers, so no i'm absolutely not kidding however, i'm glad you posted that so i could clear up my point a bit

  • Yes, I have an argument, and I will explain it for you. The argument is that songwriters do not necessarily make the best or the 'only true' performers of their songs. And no, I do not hope that you don't know what you're talking about. And no, this argument is not about if one can understand someone else's thoughts (we agree on that). And finally, I think I have refuted your idea that "la personne qui a ecris sa chanson peuvre vraiment l'interpretter" since 'vraiment' has no absolute meaning.

  • I wish i could break out the dutch but english and french is all i have. but anyways i suppose it depends how you interpret vraiment, what I meant was that she can't interpret it how brel wanted to, because we can assume that he wanted to talk about a boy's loss of innocence, maybe not though, and then you can look at what emotions he put behind each words and why. Of course mrs. Snijders didn't do that and it would be down to speculations if she

  • did...It would be silly for her to. Now if by vraiment you mean that she put her own feelings and reason behind saying each word the that she does, I think does just that, and that I agree with you :)... i think you made my youtube german lol

  • le caractère de cette chanson me semble qu'elle est au Mathieu Chedid incroyable, je l'aime

  • Au suivant: Johnny Hallyday Mon Fils. Live. Superclip.

  • visiting a brothel with a group of fellow soldiers can not by any stretch of the imagination be a woman's experience

    the fact that a woman is singing a song that is written from a man's point of view is no problem to me, but apparently to wende it is: she changed the lyrics from "chaque femme" to "chaque homme".

    that makes no sense. it's even more distracting than her bad acting. once she really starts to sing (in the final verse) these flaws disappear. that part is breathtaking.

  • Ce qui importe c'est que cela soit une bonne interprétation et à mon avis c'en est une.

  • A part du fait qu'elle n'est pas un homme, son interprétation n'est pas bonne - mais c'est peut-être mieux que celle de Mathieu Chédid (elle est plus d'un homme que lui aussi!!)

  • Pourquoi chanterait-elle cette chanson, une femme?

  • hahaha je ne sais pas

  • she learned french as a kid when she grew up in Africa, so she definately knows what she's singing!

  • She knows.

  • Jij hebt een toffe nickname.

    Geweldige zangeres, trouwens, Wende Snijders.

  • do you know what you are singing wende?

  • Of course.

  • Ik ben wat kritischer en vind Brel toch beter. Hij is gewoonweg eenvoudiger.

  • of dat kritischer is weet ik niet. Voor mij gaat ze mijlenver voorbij Brel.

  • Dat is wat kritischer

  • Wende is fokking briljant! Volgende week met het Metropole orkest in Amsterdam, yay!

  • Calamiteux.

  • helemaal geweldig, gaat niet meer uit mijn hoofd....heb nu alles van haar gekocht ,,superrrrrr

  • une des meilleures reprises de Brel (sinon la seule correcte) que j'ai jamais entendue

  • bravo bravo !

  • Elle est fantastique.

  • 1 van de mooiste nummers die Wende zingt vind ik !

  • Avec le temps is mijn favoriet
