Cliche? Nope...not when performed by you two.

Y'all have such a great vocal blend. Janice said it's comforting and makes her want to get started decorating the house....we are always late with that!

Very nice!

Thanks for sharing your holiday greeting with us Rob and Anne-Marie! This is one of my favorite songs, and it was nice to hear the Dutch verse!

Now I want eggnog and shortbread to go with the snowfall that just hit Victoria smile

So here is my question back to you:

If you can sing that well in Dutch, why do you bother singing in English?

smile



Ha ha David,

a very legit question ;-)
I'll say this on a personal note, because I cannot speak for Anne-Marie:

-the Dutch language has a lot of harsh sounds in it
-globally nobody understands a single word you're singing
-it is not very commercial
-I really love the English language, it has way more subtle words to express feelings, especially in songs.
-my 'computer life' is completely in English. I have an English Windows version, and all the rest of my software is in English. Especially my speech recognition software, which I use every single minute (English speech recognition works way better than Dutch speech recognition).

Does that clarify things a little?

I loved it, and the second verse brought me back to my days in Leuven, and it was a Flemish town, and it wasn't harsh. And the Dutch students all spoke such wonderful French and English. Smakelijk eten (or something like that).

This is brilliant! Great rendition. Love the Dutch - my grandmother was Dutch. grin

Reminded me of The Christmas Truce of 1914.
