Sometimes we find a song that just means so much and relates to this fragile life we live, and so this for me is such a song, firstly I lost my precious daughter, then again my heart is broken with the loss of my treasure my gentle wife ,now the house is empty now and listening to this song I long for all that went before...Dad
Really I DESIRE YOU that your DEEPEST SORROWS & PAINFUL FEELINGS blow-away as SOON as possible!... I KNOW what I´m TALKING about... BEST REGARDS & Strong HUGS for YOU and your sure LOVELY FAMILY!!...
I'm so sorry for you 🥺, they say when you're happy you hear the song & when sad you listen to the lyrics. I've found this is true, & yes THIS song has the tears flowing, Trinj really knows how to sing Mr Bacharach songs, I'm glad I happened upon here also.. I hope that time some how helps you get through your days, keep their memories in your heart. You sound like a nice guy, hopefully you'll find someone who will help you make new memories & understand how precious your old ones are.. God bless..
Burt`s Music which is always haunted and with the lyrics of Elvis made this song to a universal song, a song of infinity. This song is blended to one of these heartfelt songs ever. Thank you Burt and Elvis for writing this haunting song. In one word Amazing!!
This performance brought a tear to my eye, because i was once in that dreadful place . I’m fine now, but i will never forget that awful and very sad feeling of entering an empty house.
Sting, give her a call and record a duet with Trijntje. Trijntje, I don't know if you read these comments, but if you do, I want to tell you that the way you sing this song, is just heartbreaking. Never heard someone sing it with such dedication and with so much soul. It gives me goosebumps everytime I hear you sing it, it makes me cry. You've touched my soul, Trijntje.
Burt Bucharach's songs are so amazing! Someone please... make a karaoke for all his songs...his pieces...and how Trijntje Oosterhuis render his songs is so inspiring...and encouraging...wish i could sing like her.
Es una maravilla de canción y triste a la vez, dice mucho su letra, muy hermosa...y la interpretación de la cantante es magnífica. Gracias Burt Bacharach por toda la belleza que dejaste.
This is Beauty at its finest in figure and form and musical talent. Such a beautiful voice with such a heart felt song. It hits you deep down in side your sole. WOW! just Beautiful! thank you for posting it for us
Would entertain any feedback concerning why this God given voice does not tour much in America. I realize she is a big hit in the Netherlands where she is from. Judith as her american friends call her needs to tour the US. A voice of indulgence throughout a concert.
+Stephen Crisp I really hope that for you and first of all for her. She's a very big singer, not so known .. and it's incredible what's happened to me hearding casually her.
Thank You for your reply. Trijntje has a voice to the level of calming me down when mania attacks me. Please eloborate where and when she is in concert live.....
I have the same thing i'd like to say as some other people have already mentioned about you, Trijntje! I'm so glad i discovered your voice, you have so beautiful beautiful voice!!! You sing the song with so much emotion, you really touched my heart with the way you sing!!

It is a most beautiful tune.Did not think after Elvis did such a great job, another could too. Just a gem of art and Not artifice.Thank you.Thank god for art.
She does a wonderful job of hitting those notes Elvis Costello struggles with who by the way wrote this with Burt Bacharach.. One of my favorite albums ,,,,check it out if you haven't already. Brings me to tears everytime
Most unusual songwriting collaboration by Burt Bacharach and Declan Patrick MacManus (better known as Elvis Costello). Even if you never knew or heard any of the lyrics, Bacharach's music adequately conveys a great deal of sadness and loss in its orchestration 🤔
It's such a shame. The man himself, Burt Bacharach, called her a national treasure and performs with her often. Her talent and voice deserves to be known in the USA.
Americans are pretty isolated from the rest of the world. I'm glad I lived in Italy for a long time. Americans miss out on so much and think the world revolves around them, unfortunately
Did you see the crowd cheering at end? Who are these lead-asses? Her last note would have shot me up out of my seat like a carnival ride. They're watching one of the greatest shows ever produced and they sit on their arses like they just ate too much.

sorry: English is mainstream on the net (why not arabic?) .So alas, again; horrrible sound quality!! all the usual crap.. With pompous lyrics, signifien nothing. Screams of the 60-ths? yehggggh. - i am prepared to say "fuck jesus" but as i am mild-hearted, I say "plase, stop"
I miss my father, the house is so empty without him. Beautiful rendition, lyrics, arrangement. We are gonna miss you Burt!
She's Dutch and yet her English diction is flawless. Amazing singer
Damn! She is fantastic.
Found this singer by accident, what a fantastic voice.
I have never heard anyone cover Burt better.... the entire spectrum. Fantastic.
I did too...now listening to all the song she sang. Her other version of this song with just the guitar is on another level.
One word - STUNNING.

This goes in my heart and soul!!
She sings with so much passion without even trying hard. Thank you Chiqui for uploading her vids from the concert.
Costello, Bacharach, Oosterhuis. A perfect combination.
One of my favourite songs by one of my most favourite vocalists. She should be a major star in the States.
Beautifully sung by Trijntje...!
Sting, give her a call and record a duet with Trijntje. Trijntje, I don't know if you read these comments, but if you do, I want to tell you that the way you sing this song, is just heartbreaking. Never heard someone sing it with such dedication and with so much soul. It gives me goosebumps everytime I hear you sing it, it makes me cry. You've touched my soul, Trijntje.
I heard this song at a book store and immediately bought the album. I still love it.
Such a wonderful singer! Brava!
Burt Bucharach's songs are so amazing! Someone please... make a karaoke for all his songs...his pieces...and how Trijntje Oosterhuis render his songs is so inspiring...and encouraging...wish i could sing like her.
Very well said Sallie!
Just beautiful! Wow. Angelic voice
What a beautiful voice
This is absolutely beautiful much like the singer herself! It tears me up.
Wow-just outstanding phrasing and interplay with piano- so many moving parts with this one...
SHE HAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL VOICE! AND SO POWERFUL!
It's a heartbreaker for sure. But so wonderfully sung
Great version, she has a beautiful voice and does this obscure tune justice!!
Es una maravilla de canción y triste a la vez, dice mucho su letra, muy hermosa...y la interpretación de la cantante es magnífica. Gracias Burt Bacharach por toda la belleza que dejaste.
What a compliment Trijntje's voice and performance is to the genius of Mr. Burt Bacharach's music.
This is Beauty at its finest in figure and form and musical talent. Such a beautiful voice with such a heart felt song. It hits you deep down in side your sole. WOW! just Beautiful! thank you for posting it for us
She is a remarkable!
Wundervoll.
Love it that Bacharach's music is being kept alive
Mss eigenlijk de beste zangeres van NL
Trintje is the only contemporary singer of the Bacharach songbook that can match the vocal force of Dionne Warwick.
I agree.... but have to say I enjoy her even more.... it's actually an unbelievable authentic, almost overpowering accuracy.... breathtaking at times.
Would entertain any feedback concerning why this God given voice does not tour much in America. I realize she is a big hit in the Netherlands where she is from. Judith as her american friends call her needs to tour the US. A voice of indulgence throughout a concert.

That's for sure!!!
I have the same thing i'd like to say as some other people have already mentioned about you, Trijntje! I'm so glad i discovered your voice, you have so beautiful beautiful voice!!! You sing the song with so much emotion, you really touched my heart with the way you sing!!
This is a really beautiful version of this very true to life song 🎶 i know because I’ve been in that place 😢
These rooms play tricks upon you
Remember when they were always filled with laughter
But now they're quite deserted
They seem to just echo voices raised in anger
Maybe you will see my face
Reflected there on the pane
In the window up above for long
In broken home
Yet this house is empty now
There's nothing I can do
To make you want to stay
So tell me how am I supposed to live without you
These walls were lined with pictures
Remember the glass we charged in celebration
But now I fill my life up
With all that I can to deaden this sensation
Do you recognize the face
Fixed in that fine silver frame
Were you really so unhappy there
You never said
So this house is empty now
There's nothing I can do to make you want to stay
So tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Oh, if I could just become forgetful
When night seems endless
Does the extinguished candle care
About the darkness
It's funny how the memory
Will bring you so close then make you disappear
Meanwhile all our friends must choose
Who they will favor, who they will lose
Hang the garland high, or close the door
Or throw away the key
This house is empty now
There's no one living here
You have to care about
This house is empty now
There's nothing I can do
To make you want to stay
So tell me how am I supposed to live without you
This house is empty now
This house is empty now
There's nothing I can do
This house is empty now
This house is empty now
Fantástico! Encantador! Voz maravilhosa.
It is a most beautiful tune.Did not think after Elvis did such a great job, another could too.
Just a gem of art and Not artifice.Thank you.Thank god for art.
Watch the whole concert Best Of Burt Bacharach Live it is awesome .This woman and this orchestra are superb
Thank you for this song! Beautiful! also love version with Leo Amuedo!
Beautiful.love it💖
Good song!
Heel mooi gezongen.
geweldig nummer en prachtig gezongen door trijntje!!
Just lovely.
She does a wonderful job of hitting those notes Elvis Costello struggles with who by the way wrote this with Burt Bacharach.. One of my favorite albums ,,,,check it out if you haven't already. Brings me to tears everytime
Nossa estava escutando. Amei. Quando procurei a traduçao. Maravilhosa. Historia da minha vida
Execellent!
Most unusual songwriting collaboration by Burt Bacharach and Declan Patrick MacManus (better known as Elvis Costello). Even if you never knew or heard any of the lyrics, Bacharach's music adequately conveys a great deal of sadness and loss in its orchestration 🤔
A gem! Thanks
This recording is on the live album.... flawless and beautiful performance.
Marvelous, Traincia.
why, aren't Trijntje Oosterhuis's songs played more in the USA,, she is special, her vocal capabilities and range are fa nominal, *****
It's such a shame. The man himself, Burt Bacharach, called her a national treasure and performs with her often. Her talent and voice deserves to be known in the USA.
Americans are pretty isolated from the rest of the world. I'm glad I lived in Italy for a long time. Americans miss out on so much and think the world revolves around them, unfortunately
Elvis sings this much higher. his vocals on this album are miraculous. But Trijnte's version is still moving and justified
his vocals are horrific. Yuck! Good songwriter, HORRIBLE singer
islezeus Are you death!!!!! Elvis is the most talented vocalist and truly the real KIng
wow!
thanks for the upload :-)
amazing
GOOD singer and Pretty
WOOOWWWW!!!...Nothing more to say.
so good
Did you see the crowd cheering at end? Who are these lead-asses? Her last note would have shot me up out of my seat like a carnival ride. They're watching one of the greatest shows ever produced and they sit on their arses like they just ate too much.
Please come to the States!!!!!!
prachtig painful song....
Maravilloso un regalo
Wow!!
Hailton Gomes uses elegant. A very apt description. Combined with Bacharach's music it is a haunting combination.
magnifique
Trinjntje, i am a drummer, now if i could just tinker along in the orchestra i would be no trouble
Wished there's a karaoke of her version.
Wow
Can someone make a karaoke version of this song...pppllleeeaasse???😊

Wereldwijf!
Zoistok
Her name just flows off the tongue like 3 gallons of tequila flows from my stomach on a Saturday night.
ps-please come to America.
maar maar de hele tijd de ogen dicht pffffffffffffff !!!!!
jammer van sommige liedjes moet je afblijven
O
Mooi, maar Elvis Costello zingt het met meer gevoel.
