TEE-SET - MA BELLE AMIE

[@stevsones]

Great song, I was 11 when this was a hit in 70. top 5. lately I have been hearing it and have revisited the song. He had such a unique voice. I liked the key change at the chorus and the song turned into a Gospel Hymn tent revival with the clapping. There is something magical about this song. To use an old phrase-they don't write em like this anymore. God Bless Tee Set and Peter Tetteroo.

[@tammysack4097]

This is the first 45 my dad gave me after my mom and him split. I was 3. I played it hundreds of times, hoping he would come home. When I listen now I can see and smell the room I was in. The beginning of my love of music!

[@AndyMorrisArt]

I was 12 and there was this girl 11 on my paper route that would come outside everyday when I delivered the paper, and we'd talk but I could never tell her how I felt, but this song always makes me think of her.

[@sonofthehills]

What a querky little song. Strange enough that once you have heard it, it sticks like glue in your mind for years everafter

[@marilu2083]

I love this song from Tee Set, a Netherlands group. Peter Tetteroo had an amazing voice, and he was good looking too.

[@ABBY-ml2rq]

[@50musiclady]

I am a Detroit 60 yr old chick; I remember this song came out in the 60s, a radio station across the Detroit River named CKLW used to play this # frequently.......

[@drunkenxrage]

My mother loved this song, it is actually my namesake (: she would be 54, we're also from Detroit, so it's possible you guys heard it on the same station!

[@robertlongwill2077]

+sweetgirl would that be in windsor

[@buckeyesmith782]

+Robert Longwill Yes, it was Windsor, 800 AM. We used to pick it up down here in Dayton, Ohio. CKLW had better programming than the local stations so we listened to instead.

[@jeanniewales8321]

a child of the sun sky and deep blue sea adores this song😊

[@ValerieBerdeski]

OMGosh... I am in love... I have never seen this singer... but have always loved this song... ahhh....

[@Bnslamb]

I remember this song from my childhood and would search for it, but I'm not English and my search word was "my bell are me" (this was the only words/sound I could remember) AND I FOUND IT! Thanks to the uploader!! ;)

[@ulisesdjnavarros4867]

I remember having this song on an 8-Track tape from K-Tel best of 70's.

[@MrCountrycuz]

I remember this song deep in my childhood memories much like all the other songs around the turn of the decade of 1970.

[@ilonahoppe7487]

Seems like I go a couple years then remember this song, then have to hear it again,.. I love it.

[@jacquelynclark3782]

He soulful voice is what sets the song off !!!!! Reminds me of Terry Kath.

[@shirleypena4133]

I well remember this lovely song and the drop-dead gorgeous lead singer! Whatever happened to this band? They only had one hit in America, and as good as they were they should have enjoyed MANY hits.

the scaffolding collapsed

[@mznanbme]

That made me laugh.

[@TheIgmister1]

***** They were based in Holland. Had they been in London, who knows? They certainly had a sweet sound and this song was huge in New Zealand at about the same time as Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes. Had a transistor on my bike and well remember both of them while pedalling in the summer sun. Little did I know that was as good as it got. Cheers, True Averil

[@4632mavis98x]

***** Lead singer Peter Tetteroo died of cancer in 2002 at the age of 55.

[@TuberOnTheLoose]

I love the bass in this song. Brilliant!

[@dennis9707]

Remember your little transistor radio?

[@j99tinks]

I always liked this song. It still gets a lot of airplay on local radio. This live version on this set is very cool.

[@justlookin626]

I remember when I first heard this song as a little kid, I thought it was solo McCartney. Thanks for the great memory blast.

[@davidcawrowl3865]

A unique and brilliant sound when it came out.

[@JMF2007ful]

hermosa canción del recuerdo...añoro esos días...

[@brentgartside2185]

Can never get enough.. Kool story too, Thank You for that..

[@billtaylor4224]

Another one from back when I was a teen. Junior in High School

[@maryrhodes7596]

I love this and I am so glad I found it.

[@professorpatpending8731]

remember it well back in 1970 on radio. quite a hit downunder.

[@rosewritesallday]

This is such a cool song. Have always loved it.

[@mayravdw1024]

In Scheveningen had je toen discotheek Belle_Amie gaaf

[@chriselisa78]

I was nine years old when this came out. Brings back so many fond memories!

[@dvdmrtnkls]

tried this song last night at a karaoke. Hilarious because haven't thought of it since 1971-72. All i could think while singing was walking home from 8th grade school asking a bilingual friend what the French words meant. All that innocense was felt again.

[@RlCARDA]

Wonderful song.

[@thomasponzio8345]

loved this song since I was 8 years old great 2 see the video should hsve hit no.1

[@eddiemuise4791]

never forgot this song.thankyou

[@andyeahsowhat74]

I was listening to the 70s on the radio and watching hippies sing and play guitar on Lamar University campus. We lived almost on campus, about 3 blocks one way and 4 another way. I was 12 so couldnt stay long. I like the music though.

[@rehannastone9656]

my favoutite, all these years!

[@lclover77]

summer 1970 in my native Chile ....great memories!!!

[@surferbri5346]

I remember as a kid in the 1970s I'd go ice skating and if the DJ wasn't there they had a tape of pre recorded tunes with like 4 seasons rascals, and this was one of the tunes. it was pretty cool.

[@albertpluim8037]

I was in grade 4 when this came out.brings back memmories

[@pifpoufpaf9]

Great Song / Great Vocals !!

[@femaletrumpet02]

Heard on AM 580 CKWW in Detroit, MI/Windsor, ON (Oldies), even now in 2015.

[@grumpycarlsworld]

+Lauren T. It gets an airing every now and again on AM1323 "Cruise" in Adelaide South Australia, also a dedicated "oldies" station.

[@mariawill7891]

Meine erste Single ! ich habe das Lied geliebt , ist heute noch schön zu hören.

[@viviandonelly6428]

[@TheStuport]

+Rebel remembers hearing this on my transistor radio and i was 12 too....thought I was way too cool to NOT be a teenager ....lol....reminds me of how fun my youth was...and still is in my dreams! Cheers

[@hootyr13]

***** if only we had a time machine ;)

[@TheStuport]

Rebel I often wonder if "going back" for me is a good idea....lol....I'm completely satisfied with my memories AND I remember wanting to sing this to a certain pony-tailed girl in class and going back in time she STILL might not want me singing to her..Smiles & Cheers

[@hootyr13]

***** I know what you mean....my life is good now, but I would just love to go back every now and then for a few hours.../hugz ;)

[@bjreynolds3084]

a classic.

[@amsedelm]

I thought it was The Beatles when I was a kid. 8) Love it.

[@iceheater99]

Memories....Youth.....suck it in while you can. It does not last lon....love this mellow simple song.

[@stone1584444]

I still hear this song regularly on 'golden oldies' radio stations in USA. Not bad for a Dutch group!

[@lovebgs]

💝Beautiful need I say more

[@dollars2bemade]

When I first heard it I thought he was a Brother. His voice is so soulfull. I come back and listen to this song at least monthly. Born 1961 and this was normal.

[@susanjordan5949]

+dollars2bemade I always expected him to be a burly guy with a beard. Pleasantly surprised.

[@29958867]

+dollars2bemade it's true...not until Rick Astley did such a white guy have such a "black" voice (absolutely no disrespect intended!)...on the "K-Tel" album from way back, they even a "Tee Set" picture on the inside, being three black men in front of three keyboards! LOL!

[@TypesALot]

+Susan Jordan - I thought the exact same thing! I pictured some rugged looking big guy with a big beard singing this, too! HA HA!!

[@thomasponzio8345]

+james parker Dutch Rockers

[@GeorgeVreelandHill]

A few memories go with this song.

[@rinaley]

singer peter tetteroo died a long time ago. he was a child of the sun.

[@pedrorafaelacunaferrada]

Hermoso tema de los 70...

[@anthonyflynn9953]

Better than most pop songs of that period

[@ThePantruca]

I was 16 years old and I was in love with a 20 years old . With not a chance in hell to be loved by her... but it was a magic time.

[@pattialeman3816]

I just mastered this on my 6 piece Tama with voice :0 Remember as a child.....

[@TheLadyjazzy1]

60's in Boston. hell yeah!

[@karendavies175]

[@rosemariemerzlak7012]

I was six years old when this song came out

[@thomasponzio8345]

I was 8

[@gi20376]

Quanto mi piaceva..!

[@vegaslover777]

When this song was on the charts I was in grade 7. Because of his gravelly voice I thought it was an older man singing and now I see this video I laugh

[@lauraruiz3157]

HAAAAAAAAA !!!! Cuanto luche y espere para encontrar esta cancion Oww :3 !!!

[@glowworm44]

drop dead gorgeous then and now

[@vonstafford]

Hollywood Squares? What a voice from this young man! Ouch!

[@GDdeKock]

Kyk hierdie is beslis 'n baie mooi liedjie.

[@marianboersma2424]

nostalgie

[@mihaialextomi]

super

[@philshaffer6219]

"For the man after him waits here". It took me awhile to understand what he meant by saying that. He is referring to himself in third person, the next guy his "belle amie" dates would be waiting there for an infinite time.

[@EdWoodJr1956]

Phil Shaffer No. His girl friend dumped him, but he's happy, because he thinks she'll come back to him. "The man after him waits here."

[@j99tinks]

+Edward Wood I think it has a duel meaning. It could be him or it could be someone else. Either way she will leave the next man and find another.

[@pauleypavillion6088]

This song is king compared to the condescending/disgusting rap and hip hop crap we hear today.

[@donaldmandel7179]

+Pauley Pavillion You"re right bro this song just won"t leave me alone

[@dagnabbit6187]

Was taking French at school when this song came out in the Sixties or was this 1970. Anyway this song stuck in my brain forever but the French I learned didnt

[@dooplon5083]

It was indeed the Seventies.

[@lumpit22]

my beautiful friend

[@raymonddowd3321]

1st heard this riding in a true hot rod (1940 Ford coupe with a 429 cobra jet). I smell the gasoline and the burned rubber, great times to be a kid.

[@howardadamsky2417]

"Their former lead singer, Peter Tetteroo, died in September 2002 from liver cancer, at the age of 55" Source Wikipedia. How sad

[@ariacurva]

Mi piace oggi come allora ...!

[@flipperdale51]

I always thought these cats were american....Great song no matter what.

[@2right4words]

Ron Bellamy, im in Love with you...who woulda thought?

[@philly452009]

Wonder what happened to them?

[@thestones2789]

I Remember this one when I was four, it was going through my mind since, I rediscovered it years ago. A one hit wonder, but its marks time for me....... thanks tu utube u all try faster and faster to nowhere ds 2525

[@manny4552]

Its a great song!! I was sad to learn the lead singer died from cancer afew year ago.I think they have paul mccartney singing harmony here too?

[@lumpit22]

+manny4552 Is he in this video?

[@detroitmuslum6033]

I love the way he has the reversed pork chops, like those cartoon animals that try to be people

[@ronkujawa]

ahh, vedi goot!!

[@MrCountrycuz]

Did anyone out there discover Creepy ,Eerie and Vampirella around 1970 and start collecting?

[@michaellehman1455]

[@MrCountrycuz]

Huh?

[@peter83317]

Met deze Hit is Tee-Set ook groot geworden.

[@johnsain]

"I'm in love with you" part sounds so much like 1965 John Lennon.
