Anita is a national treasure who has been around since 1971 (solo since 1976). She is to us Dutch, what Betty White and Dolly Parton are to the average American, they are the Grand Dames of our time. Anita has been taking it slow for a good number of years now but she remains popular for the lady she is, truly a lovely down to earth woman. You might like her old hits too, very 70's/80's but bangers and ballads they are. (sometimes both hehehe)
I too agree! I've listened to more of our Dutch singers than ever before because of (can't find your name) HxC! and some reactions I can watch even over and over again. 🙏💙🇳🇱
This great woman, is an of the great artist we know in the Netherlands, maybe not to the generation of now a day's. Anita has a other great song which is her own, and was well known over the world it was her first international hit called " tell me why" Anita is now to this day a great class and beautiful woman in the age off 66 years old.
Love your honest comments. This is such a feel good show. Some people here say: isn’t that the show with everyone is crying all the time. Of course they don’t, but the thing with this show organization is, that they found a way to take the singers to Ibiza and provide a great atmosphere. Every season the singers that join somehow bond very quickly. Also they have to sing to each other, so they really go into depth to find out what the others are about. It works wonders and creates a safe and personal environment in which they all shine. The band has a great influence on the whole thing. Not just playing, but also writing the versions together with the singers. They’re the best and play anything you throw at them. But you have to open up and give yourself. If you don’t want that as a singer, you just pass on the invite, I love it. It’s real, it’s live, it’s great. Oh yea, almost forgot. I was gonna tell you that Anita has been around since the mid seventies. I grew up with her songs. :)
She did one of most beautiful Dutch songs ever during that season Flink Zijn. The most successful song of De Beste Zangers is by Julia Shara with a a old song from a Dutch band BZN, Just a illusion. This song became very popular in Asia and was covered by many artists.
Tears in heaven is one of my favorite Eric Clapton songs , but Anita gets away with it pretty well . Thank you again for the attention you pay to our singers from the Netherlands
Been following your cnannel for weeks now. You truly have great and honest reactions! Short intro of me. I'm a forklift driver from The Netherlands. 47 years old. Loved this reaction of Tears In Heaven. You should listen to Somewhere by Anita Mayer (also from this show). She will knock you off of your feet with her outstanding voice!!
Anita sang this song for Tommie Christiaan in remembrance of the beloved stepdad he lost. This is almost at the end of the show and this group has been singing abt 50 songs in 5 days on the spanish island of Ibiza. Emotions are tops then. I think translations started 2019 with Floor and some in 2018 but don’t think you’ll find more. Be well!
I watched this one for the 20th time now.. I love that you say come out of your box and listen more music. But when i do that i can sell my bed and rent my bedroom to a stranger 🤣🤣🤣 😉👍
Anita Meyer's solo debut was in 1976 with the song "The alternative way". ua-cam.com/video/gfwRUFvx6Sc/v-deo.html Why tell me why ua-cam.com/video/MiydOdzSCG0/v-deo.html They don't play our lovesong anymore ua-cam.com/video/RmyQLbyisdI/v-deo.html
thats from tommie cristiaan episode intro @ 39.13 ua-cam.com/video/YuHy1mBVfVE/v-deo.html oh,and sometimes they hide big bags of onions under the couch
m.ua-cam.com/video/YuHy1mBVfVE/v-deo.html#searching This is the whole video. It says English translation in the titel. I don't know if it works though. Anita's performance starts at 40:15 until the end of the video. I hope the subtitles work. ❤️❤️ Update: If you click on subtitles by this video, click on one of the options. I clicked on the dutch subtitles, but it gave me English subtitles 😉. So it's under the wrong language...
In honor and with empathie for a father( Eric Clapton) and the lost of his little babyboy, none of the real great singers and stars would dare to cover and sing this song. Everyone who has at least a little bit of feelings will understand that. And be honest, she just sang it, not more. Some Songs should not be coverd. Especialy this one. It's disapointing, sad, and for me it was just a shame. For Eric it was for sure a fat slam in his face. I hope he didnt hear it. By the way, thats just my opinion on this serious thing. Thats how i feel bout it. Dont know if am right or wrong. Who cares...
Actually she sang it to a son (Tommie) who had lost his beloved stepfather so very appropriat. If Clapton would not have liked this sung by anyone else, he should not have shared his sorrow with the world.
@@ingridwatsup9671 thank you very much, Ingrid. You remind me to something i try not to do. I often open my silly mouth without thinking. Wich i've done on this here again. First i wanna say Sorry to Tommie and his lost. A 'Thanks' to Anita, i'm sure, it meant alot to Tommie. I still think that there are more bad coversongs as good ones. And again Thank you, Ingrid. You've answered me in a calm way, with respect. That isn't often the case. Feedbacks are often full of rage and hate. I wish you all the best, dear Ingrid. And Stay safe..🐾🌈💚
@@ingridwatsup9671 no problem, i love our neighbours from Holland. I'm from Düren, near Aachen. My family use to go shopping every two months, back in the eighties. Always to Heerlen. Great memories. I wasn't there since my Dad past away in 1992. Al het beste mijn liefde
Really love your reactions freind. But is there not one song you whatcht and you thought please no second . i'am just asking myself that? You can be honest its not a crime haha. You need to watch Anita Meyer whit her old hits she had in holland. Now we don't talk anymore . is one of these hits. Greets jacco from Holland

Love the songs "why tell me why" and "they don't play that lovesong anymore"
Why tell me why, is hers. Listen to it!

Mooi uitgelegd Evert!
Seems you fell in love with her voice the first time hearing. I can immagine. She is a great singer. love her voice, even after all these years.
One of our best singers.
Tears in Heaven.... this song is played in many funerals, I guess that's also why they're so choked up. Doing great, Paul.
She did one of most beautiful Dutch songs ever during that season Flink Zijn. The most successful song of De Beste Zangers is by Julia Shara with a a old song from a Dutch band BZN, Just a illusion. This song became very popular in Asia and was covered by many artists.
You are the best! You're comments always give me a good feeling.
Tears in heaven is one of my favorite Eric Clapton songs , but Anita gets away with it pretty well . Thank you again for the attention you pay to our singers from the Netherlands
Anita is I dare to say ... loved by everyone in the Netherlands !

Samantha also has a low register. Her last name is Steenwijk. Samantha has sung with Anita the song was THEY DON'T PLAY OUR LOVE SONG ANYMORE
You are so awesome with your reactions . We love you in the Netherlands 🥰😘😘😘
She's Hollands best singer ever
I’m rewatching this (again and again) and I just thought of what an amazing job these musicians did….it matched up with Anita’s voice perfectly.
“The Alternative way” is one of my favorite Anita Meyer songs. She did that song together with Rainbow Train. It just had a different sound back then.
Why tell me why - Idaho.Two off her best songs.✌
Love you, dude. Keep spreading your positive vibes!
Anita sang this song for Tommie Christiaan in remembrance of the beloved stepdad he lost. This is almost at the end of the show and this group has been singing abt 50 songs in 5 days on the spanish island of Ibiza. Emotions are tops then.

Be well!
When she was young overal tone was higher 😁😁😁 But she is a stayer and with shifted tone is still an amazing performing and singer.
When Eric Clapton wrote this for his little boy after his death, it was one of the saddest songs on radio. He sings this so beautifully.
Be impressed on this show by Brace too!
You will be touched!!
Anita is absolutely great. I love her.
I love the voice from Anita so much!!!! Check also "Flink zijn" from Anita in Beste zangers🙏😊🌷
I watched this one for the 20th time now.. I love that you say come out of your box and listen more music. But when i do that i can sell my bed and rent my bedroom to a stranger 🤣🤣🤣 😉👍
Anita and Lee Towers from the other show sing a duet together " run to me"
the boys are crying
Very nice that you go through all this trouble for these translations !!!!
Last evening was in a tv programme that a few days before they went to Ibiza for that season, her partner went away from the earth
I grew up with her . I would say she is the Dutch Barbra Streisandand
❤🙏
