  • Hey donamaro! alles goed? ben je portugues of nederlander?

    De muziek past goed met de fotos. en ik vind fantasties ouwe fotos te zien. Ik woon nu op madeira! :)

  • Ja, ben van NL afkomst. Bedankt voor je commentaar. Geniet van het eiland. Doe ik ook.

  • Thank you for this video! I like the song, and I get the intention...but, what does it talk about? There is a an artist called Max, that was really hot in the 50's that sang about Madeira (he was a local)I recommend! THANKS A BUNCH!! Loved it!

  • Thank you Snigurka for your kind words. The song is in Dutch (by Wim Sonneveld) and its about how a certain village was in the past. I of course would prefer a Portuguese version of it and place it on this video. I do know Max and I also love his songs.

  • Thank you for taking the time to share. I enjoyed very much the photos and the song. Lovely song!

  • You are most welcome. All your compliments are rewarding enough for me.

  • It really reminds me of how Macao used to be. I have such fond childhood memories of that city on the Pearl River delta. I must go to Madeira and see it for myself! Thanks so much for sharing!

  • Mùsica original : Jean Ferrat La montagne.

  • exelente video

  • Wow. geweldig.

    Is er wel werk genoeg voor iemand die daar gaat wonen?

    Ik vind Madeira geweldig.

  • Great video. Thank you for sharing.

  • How lovely ... thank you for posting and contrary to what some wrote i like the song( even if i am portuguese and my dutch is very limited) the words are very appropriate to a nostalgic view of Madeira by a dutch person.

    Bedankt :-)

  • Thanks for this. I wish I could get my hands on these pics and post cards!

  • man, I am from Madeira, it is nostalgic to see these photos lol even though I'm not from this time
