[@loukvanbuchem9694]

[@antpoisonB]

[@dickvanmaanen9058]

Dutch artist, they are really father and son!!

[@tillybear2393]

His dads voice is amazing

[@goodestboi7692]

My plan was to sing this song solo on my dads birthday but because i found this song because of him hr knew exactly what song it was, then we started singing it together. I'll never forget how proud my dad was and how happy he looked after we were done singing. The amount of shit we've been through. I love him no matter what.

[@DutchGuyMike]

Awwwww

[@freakyriky5824]

The father's voice! ❤️

[@lisablack2567]

My daughter calls raspy voices "crinkly"LOL

[@jaspertang2477]

I played this for my father at my parents 25th wedding anniversary, about 16 years ago. Tuesday I will play it on his funeral.

[@steffimama1072]

So sorry for your loss...hope the funeral went fine.

[@ramonfrancois9306]

How does this have only 7.5 million views? It's better than a lot of 500+ million songs

[@douwesmith8719]

Ikr!!

[@benjaminkamps9340]

At least!

[@JohnnyEstacado]

i wish i had the chance to tell my father one more time how much i love him... He is my inspiration and my motivation for everything i do in my life...A great man who has raised me with all the love he could give...He used to call me champ (short for champion) ever since i was a little boy... And dad, i will not disappoint you..Champions ain't born, they're made. And you have teached me everything i need to know to get past all challenges and obstacles life may throw at me... You are not gone, never were, never will be. Dad, I love you with all my heart. xoxo

[@martijndevis]

[@kw-ep4wy]

same here man, bless you and may he’s soul rest in peace 🙏🏼

[@jam1794]

Jesus Christ! Goosebumps! How am I now seeing this song? Deserves more views and recognition.

[@StarsFellOnMe1]

One of the best songs ever.. It makes me happy that Dutch guys sang this.

[@DutchGuyMike]

I'm Dutch and sang it earlier with my father!

[@nitchreymond6814]

I send this to my father that lives in Chile. I live in Spain for the last 12 years. Missed them so much 😔

[@alainroma]

what can I say ... it's one of the best duets to sing with daddy and for a son.. It's a happy sound, and the refrain is fabulous.. every time.

[@Sauda715]

I post this video to my FB every year at father's day. It is one of the most genuine, silky , smooth and warm father/son songs I've ever heard. I think this is my 5th or 6th year, maybe more. It reminds me of what I think my Dad would say to me if he was still alive…but embraced from a daughter's perspective.

[@madetobake]

Still listening to this in 2020🙌🏾

Wait, what?!! This is from 15 years ago?!! How am I only learning about this artist now? Thank you, Algorithm!! I love this. Brought here by hearing "Friend" on Spotify after listening to Marc Broussard.

[@elperroguapoabuelo7033]

❤❤❤When I lived in Zandvoort aan Zee 2003-2014 often I met Alain and his father. Both are very friendly persons. 👌😊👍💪🤗🇪🇦

[@inekebruijns9911]

Father and son... a very special relationship.. Cherish this! 🙏

[@femkes3014]

Je kan zien dat dit niet geacteerd is .. Prachtig nummer!

[@patriciak40]

Wat is dat geacteerd ja klopt prachtig nummer

[@AntonsClass]

this song brought tears to my eyes. I wish i had this with my father.

[@diegom7229]

I've been looking for it since 2008

[@charliefrenken]

This song should be introduced all over the world. If the word is spread it would probably reach 50million views.

[@DrsJacksonn]

'I'm glad that you're around' Just the phrase is so meaningful that it's fulfilling even when it doesn't rhyme.

[@hauntedbyyesterday]

I might be the only one out there that cried while listening to this song and i'm not afraid to admit it. I just wish that my dad was here with me to sing this song or even for him to say he's proud of me. :

[@maartenaders9333]

Today's Father's Day. My dad past away on April 11th of this year after he suffered from his 2nd haemorrhage. I requested this song on his funeral on April 18th 2015. Miss you pop's. I hope you're doing well whereever you are..

[@ordeo]

My dad I was introduced to this song when he was at his late stage of illness. It was the only time I had ever seen him with a tear in his eye. It because our song and we sang it together in the best harmonies we could. It made us closer than ever. I play this every year now on the anniversary of his passing. I just wanted to say thank you. 🙏

[@ssjapy2143]

I heard this song in 2008 when I was about 5 yrs old and have just found it last yr such a good song that reminds me of my dad

[@sgovaarts]

Echt een van de mooiste liedjes van een Nederlandse artiest! Trots op Alain en z'n vader!

[@Tuasoni012]

Door dit lied realiseer ik me hoe trots ik ben op mijn vader! Pa, je bent de beste!

[@degcyl88]

Can't get enough of this song. Amazing father - son Bond. :)

[@haagseouwe]

My father died 5 years a go and every time i play this song it makes my Day. Very nice. I miss him.

[@gerritvanderberg6931]

Hey there all... still a very good and great song! Two months ago my 25 year old son gave me (as a birthdaypresent) the task to do this song together with him. Last week we both started it in singinglessons at our local singingschool here in our small town called Wormer (the Netherlands) The way he is singing it (without any singinglessons) gives me goosebumps. I have to learn it from scratch...

[@patrickdewit2015]

Every time I miss my father this song lifts me up. He was the best dad and my best Friend.

[@rbrass100]

Me n my dad sing, so i heard this song bout in 2010, i asked my dad to sit nxt to me n i dedicated this song to him, we,ve had our shares of ups n downs, but we both cried, mum walked in half way n trust me she was so proud to c us in happy bonding tears, so please people tell ur dad that no matter what u luv him, n hes made mistakes of his own, that u have lived n learned from n so will ur kids one day. God bless u all. N hell yeah the dads a way btr singer

[@tristanhoekstra]

Please use normal English, U snd like 8yo k!d

[@tucaronick]

Remember there are no grammatical rules in this medium. if you can read it, u understand it. If you cant, well........

[@Brewskidudes]

I will understand with those hitting the "thumbs-down" button; he wasn't there was he, and never a father figure even if he was present??? But hey don't let that make you lose the opportunity of being not just a good but excellent dad to your kids!! You only got 1 life, 1 chance and 1 shot at that!

[@anakyctova7172]

BEAUTIFUL SONG. GREAT MESSAGE TO EVERY FATHER .

[@skaffatom667]

My dad past away in febuary and man losing your father and best friend at the same time... it has been rough but we where sure to make the best of the moment and laugh right intill the end! Even tho hes gone i still carry him with me everyday and it made me a stronger person. Thanks for everything old man now you do your own thing up there

[@alessiolunardi4495]

ancora oggi nel 2021 ascolto questa canzone e mi fa venire i brividi come la prima volta che l'ho ascoltata!

[@gigglesport]

100% memorable moment that could never be forgotten. I know I'm not alone here, who else felt the same?

[@miszkapsonesz]

super mooi lied alain clark's vader doet me aan mijn eigen vader denken😢 ik en me vader luisterde dit lied vroeger heel vaak samen ♡ r.i.p papa iloveyou♡ daddy's little girl xx

[@ronmoerman277]

Alain....wát een natuurtalent! Ik heb niet zo zeer een speciale band met dit nummer, maar het is gewoon mooi.....af.......complimenten ook voor je vader. de mix is erg treffend, goeie combi van 2 prachtig kleurende stemmen.

[@naoual1205]

Mee eens!

[@mafia5000333]

I've been listening to and singing along with this song for ages. My dad died in 2004 when i was six years old. the message of gratitude and appreciation between father and son that this song makes me feel helped me immensely to know and truly feel what my father would've wanted to be for me and what I would've liked to be for him. It's made me feel like dad was there for me, in spirit, loving me and wishing me the world.

[@kelvinsinden1746]

For me also with tears in my eyes, my dad passed on recently and this was him totally

[@poetry4444]

THIS IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG. THE WORDS HAVE SUCH GREAT MEANING!! I LOVE THIS SONG.

[@sannelieschop2201]

The voices go together perfect! And I totally love this song!!!!

[@renekos6291]

Een mooi lied vader enzoon.zo kan het ook.

[@outpost76]

My dad, my sisters and me lost my mother (68) June 2015.... This was a real hard blow, she was the sugar in the family and bonding everybody... This song tho, made me reconnect with my father, I sent it to him (yesterday) and he was mind blown and flabbergasted... I never really told him how I felt and well we just lived. Until I sent him this song. He was really in tears about the fact that I thought of him in that way. I hope it will bring us closer together. Thank you Alain and Dane Clake for making this song, it is to me really 1 of the bests songs ever and deserves his spot right there with Imagine and songs like that.

[@thecatwoman6496]

WOW!! What great voices they both have WOW! Just WOW!! They look so good on camera too.

I have to think of my father and also of my son. We had a great relationship. Helas my father died, but my son and me are very great friends, we dare to say that we are both proud of each other and love each other very much!. Great song and lyrics Alan Clark::Father and Friend!

lyrics: Oh papa sit down, and hear my song Oh and if you feel like it then please sing along No nothing that I wanna say, I haven't said before But to use your words, you can never be to sure See, even though I don't always show, I'm glad that you're along Said I'm glad that your're around Oh sonny, so strange, to hear and see That someone so different is, a soul like me You may have gone right, where I would have gone left But son, that's alright, I will always have your back See even though, I don't always show I'm proud of you, my son Old days, and all of the new wanting to be like you Every time I look at you (oh yeah) I see myself I'm so proud of you For you help make me what I am A better man I'm just so proud of you Oh dad, your views in life, tell me how they came to be Well see, I didn't know my father like the way that you know me Dane: son, life is just too short, for us to never be in touch That's why I want to tell you that I love you very much Oh even though, I don't always show You know Oh and I want you to know that Every time I look at you (oh yeah) I see myself I'm so proud of you For you help make me what I am A better man I'm just so proud of you I'm here and I'll be if I can A father and a friend Every time I look at you Every time I look at you (what you see?) I see myself (oh yeah) And I'm so proud of you For you help make me what I am Son and a friend I'm just so proud of you You know that one day too I'll be walking in your shoes Yeah and I know that you'll do fine 'Cause you're a son of mine Oh hey papa tell me what you've learned So that I don't get my fingers burned Son you'll see that as you go You'll make mistakes of your own But that's okay man See you live and you learn You live and you learn

[@piethein4669]

Giovanni Peirone if you like this you should listen to: zanger kafke - onze dag

[@PyroCham]

"The best" is subjective. There are A LOT of good bands and artists that came from the Netherlands. Some of them one hit wonders and some of them were in it for the long run. I'm pretty sure that you weren't aware that some of them were even Dutch. Just do the research lol.

[@Mediapix]

My son gave me a leatherman knife with this inscription father and friend, that made me cry.... he is so special to me, missed him 12 of 14 days from 2 to 15.... after that we had more and more contact and now I have the best contact, that's what live is all about!
