Hello Jessie, Thanks for another reaction on Emma. I give you hereby the English lyrics of this song. The rest of comments about everything you can read in the reaction of Stevecgarry which gives always a very good insight of Emma's story and so on. keep up the good work. Laat Mij Een Vlinder Zijn (Let Me Be a Butterfly) is a heartfelt song by Emma Kok. Here are the English lyrics for this uplifting track: [Verse 1] If I could change a day Then it seems very nice Just like as many others Once not afraid, but to be free [Pre-Chorus] If I could do everything for equally Then I quickly crawled out of my cocoon Flew through the clouds toward the sun [Chorus] To move freely for a moment Living without fear and worries Let me be a butterfly Let me be a butterfly Never having to wear a mask With my wings spread wide Let me be a butterfly Let me be a butterfly [Verse 2] I thought I was losing But I stood up and conquered And through the fight, I discovered How much I could still do [Pre-Chorus] Yet there are moments When I wish for more than I can And I always dream of [Chorus] Being able to move freely Living without fear and worries Let me be a butterfly Let me be a butterfly Never having to wear a mask With my wings spread wide Let me be a butterfly Let me be a butterfly [Bridge] Na-na, na-na-na-na-na Na-na, na-na-na-na-na Na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na Even if it’s just for today Or even for a mere moment I’d love to see the world From a different perspective [Chorus] Being able to move freely Living without fear and worries Let me be a butterfly Let me be a butterfly Never having to wear a mask With my wings spread wide Let me be a butterfly Let me be a butterfly [Outro] Na-na, na-na-na-na-na (Oh) Na-na, na-na-na-na-na (Oeh, yeah) Na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na

Jessie, You've probably reacted to more of Emma's work than any other reactor that I've seen over the last 9 months, and she truly is incredible, I had the pleasure of watching her live in Dublin a few days ago, I didn't think perfection could be improved upon, and I'm referring to the original version of Voila from Maastricht last year, but Emma has improved it, by reviewing her past performances, which is time consuming, but the mark of a consummate professional, she's made a number of subtle changes to the way she presents the song, and the version she did in Dublin was sublime, absolutely beautiful, and there's a recording on KZbin of the latest version of Voila, followed by a second song, 'Heal the world,', a Michael Jackson song, absolutely wonderful performances, this video was captured in London last week, kzbin.info/www/bejne/laXSg3lnlqyZbJo Another stunning performance recently was a liberation concert in Amsterdam, in front of the Dutch Royal family, she did a duet with April Darby, 'When you believe' kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3ibiIlnfKunlcU Back to her first ever single, released in 2021, as you rightly say, it's in Dutch, but there is a live performance at a show in Holland that's been subtitled, and that's on KZbin, kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKLCkGaPnrWYo68 The words of this song are beautiful and also very deep, it was written for her, and very much reflects the struggle she's had because of her illness, it is the story of Emma’s desperate desire to be free, to be able to escape the restrictions and confines of her disease, and soar like the butterfly that has just emerged from the cocoon where all the change happened, and to fly free, and there is a deeply emotional segment from 2:02 to 2:40 where she sings, ‘If only for a day, or even for a count of 10, I’d just like to live as another’, her desire to be able to escape, and as she sings it, her eyes close, she gently shakes her head, and then her head goes down, and she falls silent, as she contemplates the reality of her situation, and has to face the awful fact that for now, there is no escape, there can be no change, as there is no treatment or cure that can change the circumstances around her life, and then, she makes the decision, she will NOT be defined by her illness, she is going to fight it every inch of the way, and live as normal a life as is possible, and with that life changing decision made, her head comes up, and she rises to a new top note, and soars, like her butterfly of her dream. That first night on Andre’s stage, when she sang the new version of Voila for the first time ever, physically, she walked on to the stage, but mentally, she was already soaring like the butterfly of her dreams, Andre had worked his showman’s magic, she was no longer the good capable girl singer that had been winning Voice Kids kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGHKiZyhg7edmNE and Ministars, kzbin.info/www/bejne/qICuh35qpJKpnJY as she walked out on to that stage, in that stunning black dress, one of 4 that Andre had made for her, she was now the new Emma we are seeing more and more regularly, she came out on to that stage visibly and emotionally a beautiful, strong, powerful, serene, composed, competent, driven and dedicated young woman, Andre had seen that she was ready to make that difficult transition from the girl to the young woman, and that first night on Andre's stage was the start of the fulfilment of her dream that she'd sung so beautifully 12 months earlier. Mentally, she soared like the butterfly, she dominated the stage, the orchestra and the huge audience with the strength of her performance, already, she is so much more than a singer that she dreamed of being, I don't have a word to describe how she performs in the way she does. As she punched the air in triumph at the end, as she sang that high note, the smile on her face said it all, she knew she’d absolutely nailed it, but even then, she hadn’t lost the 15 year old girl, as she threw her hands wide, and turned to Andre, the look on her face said it so clearly, ‘How was that?’ Andre’s eyes, his smile, the kiss and hug, the one word, ‘Fantastic’, they said it all, she’d very much nailed it, as Andre knew she would, and even though this was her first ever performance with him, he had the confidence the next day to invite her to join him in Malta for 2 concerts, to be a part of his Christmas concert series in Maastricht, and to be a guest singer on the 75 concerts that are the 2024 world tour. She has arrived, and more people are discovering her every concert she does, with Andre and others, Voila on KZbin has had over 52 MILLION views, and it's only her disease that limits her, 22 hours a day on the feeding tubes is a huge limitation, as is her reduced stamina, but she is a warrior, a fighter, and she is not going to give in to this thing, and with Andre, she has the perfect partner, they are both perfectionists, and will not accept or tolerate anything less than the best. I am hoping she will continue to work with Andre after the 2024 tour, while she's a minor, there are all sorts of limits on her time performing, and the actual times she can be on stage, which is a pity, but it's the reality that she's still only just 16, and there are good reasons for having laws defining what can be done. Thinking of birthdays, there's a lovely segment in a recording from Athens, on her 16th birthday, as well as flying the family and some close friends in to have a party with her, he then got the orchestra and 13,500 people in the audience singing 'Happy Birthday' to her, and then the audience went off script, and sang a Greek version to her before she sang the Michael Jackson song, 'Heal the world', kzbin.info/www/bejne/lV6ap5Zvf9d9nKc It's very clear that there is a very good relationship between Andre and Emma, he's taking great care of her, and the whole orchestra works like a huge extended family, and it's very evident with her social media posts, she is happy with the way her life is going, and with how things are working with Andre and the orchestra. I close with my normal comments, and make no apologies for doing everything I can to encourage people to support Emma's foundation. Emma's foundation can be found at gastrostars.nl If at all possible, please join me in making a (regular) contribution to Emma's foundation, they are a small but dedicated group of people working on research on this awful disease, with a view to providing additional support to patients like Emma and hopefully finding new treatments or even better, a cure for the disease. One of the key people in the team is a surgeon with significant experience of treating gastroparesis patients, but as a result of a worsening of her condition, as she too suffers from this same disease, she has been forced to leave her position as a surgeon, so her focus now is on the work of the foundation, and achieving some new results to help provide answers or treatments. It would be more than wonderful to hear that a result of the work of the foundation is a treatment or cure that will enable Emma to realise her other dream, and be free of the feeding tube regime, and able to perform more as the incredible singer that she is, and it may be the help of people in this community that makes this a reality.
