zosja - wonderful life

Hi,

It's from the George Baker Collection and it's called Una Paloma Blanca... The original is made in 1975 and he made a 2005 remake for this movie. That's the one you here in the endtitels...

PS George Baker made also hitsong A Little Green Bag which featured in the Reservoir Dogs

No, it's "Wonderfull life" which he aims for. He's saying female vocals and last time I checked George Baker was still a man :)

Wonderful life is a cover from the group Black but was also covered somewhat 8 years ago by another Dutch singer but forgot her name..

Then it's Wonderful Life by Mathilde Santing, the lesbian, or dike, more appropriately in this case ;-)

And yes, she does her version quite well. I've always liked it better than the "Black" version.

Oh yeah? One of the reviews on this page is from an American.

Laat hem dan ook in t hollands praten. Waarom moeten wij ons aanpassen aan 1 verrekt luie Amerikaan, laat hem dan ook hollands praten. Zo moelijk is t hollands niet. IK ken zelfs Hollands.

You call him lazy for not speaking Dutch, but yet you don't bother to type in English on a website where the visitors are of all kinds of languages. Makes no sense, does it? And why are you so sure that he knows Dutch? A lot of Dutch speakers also speak English, but it doesn't work the other way because Dutch is a very small language. If you happen to be someone from Russia or God knows where who happens to speak Dutch, that's an exception. Also, since Vet hard went to Cannes, it's bound to have been seen by people who don't speak Dutch.

En jij noemt jezelf een hollander. Shame on you.

Silly nationalism.....

Wow, nice reaction. NOT.

wat een onzin zeg en dan zeuren over duitsers dat ze zich niet aanpassen, we zitten hier op een engelstalige site dus lijkt het me logisch dat er ook engels gesproken wordt of niet dan??

what a nonsense and then we bitch about germans that they don't adjust, we are on a english-spoken site or not??
and for the record i'm not a 'hollander' i'm a limbo. it's much more easier for every nationality to read in english than in dutch, if we want to read a comment about a japanese movie, then what, do you read japanese?


i hate people who don't think further

lekker hollands blijven lullen mensen.

Not all people who speak Dutch are "Nederlanders", and not all "Nederlanders" are "Hollanders". I myself am Flemish ("een Vlaming") and I enjoyed this film.
I do think it is wise to speak English here, although I might write in Dutch on boards like the "Thuis" board.

I'd like to add that Dutch is not a very big language (like Russian, Chinese, Hindi, English,..) but it isn't a very small language either. 16.5 million Dutch+6 million Flemings (and then I'm not even counting people from Surinam) makes Dutch pretty important in the European Union (only English, German, French, Spanish, Italian and Polish have more speakers).
A very small language, that's like "Abkhaz" or "Kashubian".

@ Lulligvoorje, en ja dit gaat in het Nederlands want het gaat toch niet over de film en is voor de 2 Amerikanen de 3 Britten ( of zoiets) die hier zitten toch niet boeiend, Mathilde Santing is bi-seksueel aangezien ze ondertussen al een geruime tijd een relatie met een man heeft, ik denk vermeld het even en is dat misverstand ook weer de wereld uit.
I'm Dutch, what's your excuse
