[ponkaton1]

lip syncing? 17 yrs later he cud not sing this the exact same way lets be realistic tho i do love this song

[Leasatoo]

Yep all it took is one look and I was in love

[koratia]

good old days beatclub in scheveningen for example om nooit te vergeten , zo ff naar de kjoe kijken en luisteren

[starmusic76]

PETER PARECE UM ANJO CANTANDO.I LOVE IT.

[oceantracks]

The guy singing the high part sounds like McCartney when he joins in on "I'm in love with you"

[iamAwesomo1994]

he's really good live

[wiwiet79]

gewoon fantastisxch

[sugarwammajammas]

I loves me some key change in a song...

[mrpomo632]

100% great song that you don't hear on the radio often :/ should be played more

[loverofgoodmusic23]

Miss you so Peter...

[GladfromMan]

100% lip sync

[kidkosh]

Another golden oldie.

[eloiseryan999]

Oh we all loved Peter. Gorgeous. Our loss. x x

[MarthaThomas1000]

I remember this song when I was 11 and Jay Goff...wish I knew where he was now. My church friend from Perrine Baptist.

[PAULLONDEN]

"Merci"...?...Non,non.

[Pedy1968]

Great video!!!

[ponkaton1]

love the outfits lyp synching tho the record sounds good tho lol

[bitemegs8]

Too bad this version is just lip-sync of the '69 studio version. It would have been nice to hear how they sounded at the time.

[Tippersnore]

I really dug this tune as a kiddie. Thanks for the post.

[gurn58]

I believe Peter was Dutch no?

[Zjaydee]

I remember this song. Music for kids. Just repeat the same 20-30 seconds over and over and hopefully nobody will notice. Later the same town of Delft would produce Alquin. A much, much better band.

[cinebeatl]

Sounds so much like McCartney when he sings "I'm in love with you!" It's uncanny!

[Lockemeister]

I love this song

[rowdymax1]

"Ma belle amie, I'm in love with youuuuuuuu...."  classic. reminds me of spring, 1970....6th grade good times.

...

'

[kirbygene]

@rowdymax1 7th grade for me and I loved it too! I thought it might be a "secret" Beatles song. remember after they broke up how people thought they were secretly releasing material? Ma Belle Amie reminds me of simpler, innocent times

[joeyjosephs]

@kirbygene i googled at paul singing with him and it said is was paul, so who knows :)

[nsenderoff]

always loved that group and that soung

[dmny05077]

Hey RockSpecial, is there a version of this song in their native language that you could upload? Thanks.

[Mariekesone]

@dmny05077Most Dutch Bands like Shocking Blue and George Baker Selection, Golden Earring sung in English in those days...Its the only way to get into the big scene...and well its still like that today really isn't it?...:-))

[ponkaton1]

lip syncing? there was no way they cud sound the same way 17 years later lol i just found the words to this song online very sad sort of now every time i hear it i cry im 45 when duz the music stop efecting people my age? thanks for posting it

[limeytrash]

@ponkaton1 Why couldn't they sound just as good 17 years later and have to lip sync? There are countless bands who do it every day. This was truly a one hit wonder who couldn't even perform live. A great example of a great song that could never be duplicated outside the studio.

[PussystinklikeU]

@limeytrash because Peter Tetterroo was to busy to sing with your father dick in his bum fucknuts.Thats why he died from Aids as well.

[7188181]

@PussystinklikeU It sounds like you're obsessed with homosexuality.

[7188181]

@ponkaton1 You cry? Why? Are you a sissy boy?

[cherylsnyder6969]

Love it!

[cgarbiano]

Wow does this song bring back memories.

[tommy6777]

I love this song..anyone else addicted to this video? God i miss talent.

[amsedelm]

Great, great song. When it was on the radio bacjk in the 60's I first thought it was The Beatles.

[alo12340]

sweet tune, int it? You can see the keyboardist in this video, to the right of the drummer. I musta been 8 when this came out, and I think i even like it more now than i did then. I'm glad it was here, I'm learning it on guitar. alo

[iwtricapecod]

Terrible lip-synching!!

[kap3181]

@iwtricapecod Right! Agree completely. There is NO WAY they would sound this great in '86. (Totally lip-synched from the beautiful classic from '69!)

[batess1]

Don't know who the person calling this band dumb F**ks. Just goes to show they don't know talent and class when they see it. This is a great band

[MoscowMoo]

Duhhhh, Delft as in Delft blue. Right. We're not all DFs.

The bass player in this piece has it going on. The drummer, a happy (cute) sort. But what's with the keyboardist? All we ever see from him are a set of hands. Maybe he is Thing from the Addams Family?

[12345678941964]

HOLLAND,DUMB FUCKS

[12345678941964]

you are both wrong my friend peter was from DELFT its ok nobody knos where it is at /dont argue the song was and still awesome

[motherocean24]

One of the first songs I ever heard on radio. I thought it was magic and still do!!

[debala57]

RIP Peter.... a wonderful voice lost

[KidRockEatsSmegma]

@debala57 did you give Peter Tetteroo the HIV virus?

[Nightengale1000]

Love this song...brings back many memories...of days gone by...

I wish they were still around...

RIP Peter ....

[emc054]

I heard this on the radio last Sunday in the car and could not get it out of my head. Let the bells ring ... let the birds sing - I am so glad I found this video.

[boliverful1]

Wow! This band looks totally different than what I had pictured in my head through all these years.

[rasputin63]

They're lip-synching to a record they'd made 35 years earlier...?

[1975larakay]

absolutely!!! but still the freakin best song EVER!!!!!!!

[1975larakay]

OMG, can you even imagine being a 12yr old girl in Omaha, Nebraska, 1969.... hanging out at the pool, doing the neighborhood thing, when the streetlights come on...., gotta be home.. (or else.. lol).... and, hearing this song??? .... freaking nuts!!!!!!!

[1975larakay]

i mean... seriously, to a 12 yr old girl, this was (lol) i can't even explain it!!!!!

[herbherbert]

Fantastic! Can't understand why this was never a hit in the UK.The English never recognise their own great talents like Ray Fenick(Crawdaddy Simon,Magpie theme, Fancy etc.)

Why on earth were we dragging other afro haired guitarists, (I think we all know of who I'm talking about) all the way across 'the big pond', when we had fantastic talent of our own like this!

[RockSpecial]

THANKS !

[BillClausen]

@RockSpecial Tee Set were from The Netherlands.

[limeytrash]

You're a racist. Are you saying the UK never recognised any of its talents? It's the fans that determine the popularity of an artist, not the government.

[herbherbert]

Very, sorry if I have offended anyone. I am certainly no racialist. I love THE BLUES (invented by colored Americans)Stevie Ray Vaughn, John Mayall,Johnnie Winter, Paul Jones are all my favourites, so how could I be?

Some of my friends are colored!

I think some Britishers mightt find the term 'Limeytash' a little bit racial?Doesn't the term 'Limey' come from a time when the Brits were so poor in the London slums, all they could feed there children on was limes?

[grebel82]

you CANNOT be serious....

[grebel82]

They are not your own they are Dutch, fool....

[herbherbert]

Now I may certainly be a fool (a cool fool at that!) but the geezer with the crazy afro and ultra modern Ovation acoostic guitar is Mr Ray Fenwick, who is absolutely English.

He obviously knows a good thing when he seas ( or hears!) it.

Obviously the other membrse are from the Neverlands but Ray is the only English cat who dug this FANTASTIC muisic.

I would hate to fink i have upset someone from Denmark especially as I love your bacon so much!

Peace and Love( in a trubled world)

[almondgrrl]

@herbherbert Beg your pardon, but this band was Dutch, not from the UK. This song was a big hit over here in the home of your so-called 'Afro haired guitairists.' Indeed great guitar and a fantastic set of pipes. And can you really be be taking a knock at Jimi? Really?

[herbherbert]

@almondgrrl

We have a thing in the UK called 'irony' and I was being 'ironic'.

Maybe it came across as 'moronic'.

The guitarist with the permed afro hair is Ray Fenwick and he is definitely English.

A knock at Mr Fenwick not Jimi.

[almondgrrl]

@herbherbert ...Fair enough...knee-jerk reaction of us yanks, I'm afraid, is to always assume it's about us (or Jimi). Thanks for the clarification on UK customs. I'll have check out more about this "irony" of which you speak. Off to Wikipedia then! ;-)

[milkieways]

at :40 and :41 thats the classic bridge remembered by all as we look back now four decades, who could forget this one hit wonder, great memories; great lyrics to a great record; words still apply even 2day

[lavampire]

I sort of young for this song, but I have heard it many times in those oldie stations. And can you believe this. . . . I thought the lead singer was a black guy because of his husky voice! Stupid me for not knowing better. Now I know.

[boliverful1]

Don't feel bad! That's what I thought!

[blacksebastian2144]

thanks for posting this video. i got the 45 for this song when i was about 10 years old-it was a big hit in the u.s. at the time. THANK YOU!

[pussnboots59]

thank you, tee set. for this wonderful song from all of our heavens, it is great love forever . that was ment to be.

[Mariannelfk]

humm..Are you sure, OjaiRoy, the song was "Never on a Monday?" ..not Sunday?...there is a song, "Never on a Sunday" that came out in the 60's. Check on "search."

[mellotrongirl]

Interesting how the record label Colossus in the US had a lot of Dutch bands. So did the label Dwarf and 21. Nothing wrong with that! The Nits should have had some hits in the states tho'. We think of Netherlands, and we think Shocking Blue, Golden Earring and Tee Set. Maybe some of us remember Earth and Fire, Focus, Spin, Trace, Alquin and Supersister, but that's about it...and Irish Coffee from Belgium!

[OjaiRoy]

One of my favorite songs from 69 (I also loved "Smile a little smile") when I was 13. The guy singing harmony sounds very much like Paul McCartney. This was 40 years ago and thanks to youtube it is still alive!

[mellotrongirl]

That's exactly what I thought - Paul McCartney...like I thought the lead singer for Stories singing their hit "Brother Louie" was Rod Stewart! The stereo version has the two notes hit by the organist shifting from left to right...a new radio station that went on the air accidently was one-channel and they only found out when they played this tune.

[jitterbug121]

good song however, he is not singing this live. ....this is the old version much thanx 4 sharing =)

[Mariannelfk]

You are exactly right,  hernje. Didn't mean to sound one sided. Just , after all these years, didn't realize they were Dutch....great music does cross all bounds and barriers.

[Mariannelfk]

Tee Set is from the Netherlands?!! I was 13 when this song came out! Love it! I'm of pure dutch heritage so...hummm..must be in the blood! Thanks, Rock Special, for bringing back a flood of memories!

[hernje]

I ,respectfully ,disagree. I don't have a drop of Dutch blood, however, this song has also been a favorite of mine, since a teen. Great music crosses all bounds and barriers.

[OjaiRoy]

To Mariannelfk -

I was also 13, born 1956 in Hengelo, Holland.

A song I always heard on the radio around 1961 was Never on a Monday (?) but I don't know who the lady singer was.

[blookup]

What a great vid!

I love the Tee Set!!!

That Hammond B3 is mind structuring.

[RockSpecial]

THANKS !!!!!

[atombomb31458]

@blookup

[Bellyflops2]

[Bronteboy67]

[HankNooter]

[imahokieartist]

[imahokieartist]

Nevermind...My computer must have been weird for a moment.
