De Elegasten - Zoveel • TopPop

“Zoveel” van De Elegasten is originally from Joe Dassin, La fleur aux dents (1971). De Elegasten were a Flemish cabaret group active from 1964 to 1976. The group consisted of the three brothers Ivan Poppe, Paul Poppe, and Ray Poppe, Riet Bracke, the wife of the oldest brother Ray, and Herman Van Caekenberghe, the main arranger and composer of the group. Their most famous songs are “Wat Heb je Vandaag op School Geleerd”, “Praten Zingen Dansen” (originally also from Joe Dassin), “Droeve clown”, “Annabel Lee” en “Veronikja”, a song from Cornelis Vreeswijk and one of his biggest hits.
The group started their career under the name The Campground Singers. In 1968, they began singing under the Cardinal Records label of Rocco Granata and changed their name to De Elegasten, a reference to the medieval epic poem "Karel ende Elegast." One of the last productions under the supervision of Rocco Granata's Cardinal Records was the album “Madrigals” from 1977. This video is recorded at the Dutch TV program “Op Volle Toeren” in 1975.

Grande canto parabéns pelo vídeo

[@Emdee5632]

I was born in 1965 so you might assume I can remember this. Maybe it got lost in my memory. A nice song 😊 I always liked to watch Toppop and Op volle toeren. Helaas ik ben geboren in 1965 dus je zou zeggen dat ik me dit herinneren kan. Misschien uit me geheugen geschoten. Aardig liedje 😊 Ik keek altijd graag naar Toppop en Op volle toeren.

At this period, a lot of flemishes and dutches groups adapted a great number songs of Joe Dassin. French artists are a big source of inspiration from belgians and dutches artists.

[@juanluissaladolopez346]

Are they Dutch, descendants of the first enslavers?

[@Emdee5632]

Don't be daft. The fist slaves lived I don't know how many thousands of years ago. Most Dutch people have always had to work hard. The benefits from slavery have always gone to the rich... You are Spanish, or Spanish speaking. How sure can you be that no ancestor of yours ever had slaves in the Americas, or got rich by selling them? Don't be a hypocrite.

[@Emdee5632]

They are Flemish, not Dutch. You could have known that if you had read the description.

[@Penalist]

The first enslavers ever? Like before the Egyptians (not), and literally hundreds of other cultures, nations and regimes before and after (yes)? Grow up.

[@tamarabrugara]

We played a pretty bad role in chattel slavery but like the start of Dutch slave trade is conquering Portugese territory in what's now brasil. "The first" we're not. We are one of the last to abolish

[@elrastrillo1]

Curiously, the last to arrive in America were the Dutch😂
