Mariska Veres - Shoking Blue
Never Marry to a Railroad Man

Mariska Veres, singer for the Dutch group Shocking Blue who had a worldwide hit with their song Venus in 1970, has died aged 59, Dutch media report.
Veres died from cancer.
In 1970 Venus reached the top of the American music charts but Shocking Blue did not have any other success that matched their big hit.
The group split up in 1974.
Their song Venus would go on to make it to number one in the American Billboard chart two more times - in 1981 by cover band Stars on 45 and in 1986 in a version by girlband Bananarama.
In the late 1980s Shocking Blue also served as an inspiration for grunge band Nirvana who covered the band's song Love Buzz on their 1989 debut album Bleach.

  • mariska,.....thank you for the music

  • I live in Brazil and at the 70's I took knowledge of Shocking Blue and his wonderful songs. I sang this hit in my band, The Rebels, but I never knew it was a woman singing. Only now, so many years later I saw her face for the first time on this video. I confess that tears is rolling down on my face. What a nice person e astonishing voice. Thanks Mariska, you'll beforever in my heart!
