Bart Arens is not only a deejay on radio 2, but he is a man that understands music, understands how music can go straight into our hearts.. Every opening is a masterpiece, but this one.. man, it is something special!
On the NPO Radio 2 channel, there is now also a video which lists all the music fragments that were used in the video, and also a 'making of' video. Very worthwile to watch those too.
This one hit hard this year. The Wizard of Music did it again. It’s been quite a rollercoaster to be honest. Thank you so much again for all the hard work this year. I wish everyone a very merry Christmas and the best wishes for 2024 🥂🎄
Yesterday at midnight I listened to this on the radio, and I really enjoyed it. This is the first time I also watched it, and it even is more impressive this way!
this time a great message, stop all the violence in the world. many people were touched by this, I also got goosebumps and tears. so incredibly beautiful
The speech about human machines comes from the Charlie Chaplin movie the Dictator. The whole speech is one of the most impressive speeches of all and should be listed in any school program.
Was about to watch the original for the 5th time and saw your reaction in the recommended 😁 Had to come and give it some love! Thanks for helping spreading the beautiful message outside of the Netherlands as well ❤ Merry Christmas (if you celebrate Boxing Day as well) to everyone and a happy New Year! 🥂🍾🎉
Merry Christmas and GOD's blessings for 2024. And listen carefully to the beginning of this video. We have to make something of it together? For me that is certainly not war! Keep talking to each other. Greetings from Spakenburg, Netherlands.
Two years ago Bart made an extended video telling and showing the creation process of these mashups. Unfortunately in Dutch, and too long for translating.
Funny you should say this, because Bart actually used the original acapella vocal of Marvin Gaye, and then layered the symphony orchestra on top of the piano. That's what makes this sound so beautyful.
I would say. The message is clear!! All world leaders watch this on UA-cam and start thinking. Maybe you figure it out, and drop all of your ego’s.!! Wisch you a good and peaceful 2024. 🫶🏽
The drummers are from 4 famous Dutch bands, Golden Earring, Bløf, Kensington and Direct.
Got goosebumbs when I watched it. Choked up a bit myself. It is so cool to see this reached outside the Netherlands. ❤

That finale, when the kids choir came in again, that brought tears to my eyes. So beautiful! ❤

Insane. There are so many songs hidden in that drum part! p.s. one of the drummers is Cesar Zuiderwijk from Golden Earring.

There are about 40 acts/songs in this video. Do you recognize ?
Ik dacht dit jaar exact 50
New Video online with all songs used (50!)
I think this one from Michael Jackson is also in there. Heal the WORLD,
Very nice bro. Somehow better than the Marvin Gay original.

Tunes from 50 songs
If you can get any more epic opening of sn annual radio event, I'll challenge you😀
Verschrikkelijk die Bart
Verschrikkelijk die comment 😜
Klopt verschrikkelijk goed die Bart 🙂
Als je dit haat dan hou je echt niet van muziek.
