This is what The Netherlands looked like, back in the 70s... For us it's true nostalgia, as we grew up in those years. The video is true Kodak color Plus ;-) Film van Weleer Comments are encouraged.

I hope the different colours work. Anne-Marie

A mesmerizing video, very interesting.
Nice musical accompaniment - lovely vocal and Rob's guitar solo was just right for the piece.
Good work all round.

Rob & Ann-Marie, outstanding song
Great vocal and harmonies
Fantastic mix
Super video
PS - I worked 39 years in Kodak research so the video was of special interest to me - Loved the song and video
Unclear if the pianist is a total beginner or a professional jazz player?

Sounds great! The lyrics are especially touching. The video reminds me - last year I got a film digitizer and scanned in a pile of 8mm and Super-8 family films from the '60s and '70s. Thank goodness for video stabilization software!

Today seems to be the 'no-chorus-day' (see fgrittner's song).... not that there's anything wrong with that  It's a nice melancholic song, sparse but effective arrangement and of course your great vocals and harmonies. I like it a lot. The video is indeed like a time travel back to the 70's, great work here too.

Oh, yes, this was one of the songs I listened to when I subscribed to your channel. Anne-Marie, thank you for taking the time to create this post. Very helpful.
Rob and Anne-Marie, you are a sensational team. The video is beautifully done and a very special keepsake with such a wonderful song.

Marie-Anne and Rob...this is so captivating...first off you guys again deliver a super vocal performance...such a sweet, nostalgic song...it is perfect for the video (and thanks for the English words: for our understanding) but I find the Dutch much more appropriate and romantic...I enjoyed this so much!
BTW: my ancestors came from Leiden...my generational-grandfather came to America in November 1621...150 years before the existence of the United States...I would love to visit The Netherlands some day!

Hi Rob and Anne Marie.
Your film took me back to my youth in London. A local market looked similar to that. I love the old clips, and your song is a very soothing accompaniment.
Thank you for posting.

Rob and Anne-Marie, this is such a captivating piece of work and is nostalgic no matter where one grew up.
So soothing compared to our jarred and cold societies that are all too common around the world today.
This brings us back to a much simpler, humane, civilised and cultured yesterday.
Your vocals are especially pleasing, do consider sharing more of this.

Great song, well sung, and the most interesting video by far that I've seen on the forum. I was in my twenties back then, and it was a great time musically. Thanks for the memories.

I watched the vid for a few moments but it drew me in too deeply and I wasn't "listening".
Quickly I went back to the post and listened properly.
The whole production is sweet & I LOVE hearing you sing in your native tongue...I can hear the nostalgia, warmth and love.
I was a teen through the 70s so, naturally, I have strong feelings about the time, place, events and MUSIC of that decade.
EXCELLENT.
Cheers

A deep sense of nostalgia is evoked from both the music and the video.
I was fascinated by the film footage.
Song is sweetly sung and beautifully composed and produced.

Very nice song. Thanks so much for adding the English words, I really like the story and wouldn't have understood it otherwise. The different colors worked nicely I thought. The music is so very nice and I just love your harmonies together like that.

Hoi Anne-Marie en Rob,
Wat een lief, gevoelig lied over een heel interesante tijd.
Mooi gezongen (uiteraard) en goede tekst.
En het gitaarspel was heel sterk hier.
Nostalgie van de bovenste plank!
Even vertalen voor het forum:
What a sweet, sensitive song about a very interesting time. Beautifully sung (of course) and good lyrics.
And the guitar playing was very nice.
Top shelf nostalgia!
Heb er van genoten,
Hans
