First Time Hearing Danny Vera - 'Roller Coaster' Live @ Stenders Platenbonanza | Reaction

[@moonuutgrunn]

He still lives in the house he was born in. His momma (r.i.p.) planted the magnolia he is singing about in the chorus.

[@Ich1GoTgl]

He is a great singer, but his personality tho...

Big hit in The Netherlands so I've heard this song many times, but still every time it gives me goosebumps.

[@davedehart]

I didn't know your channel... was recommended to me just today. Took a look through your videos and it occurred to me that you reviewed álot of dutch artists/music. We live in desperate times and alot is happening in my country that sometimes almost makes me ashamed that i'm dutch... Especially what has happened yesterday, my fellow countrymen know exactly what I mean! 😪 But man, hearing al these (dutch) songs again makes me feel proud! For such a small country we're só big in sports, trade and definitely music! Great channel... subscribed 👍🏼

[@orangeguppie6897]

Danny Vera deserves that the world knows about his amazing voice! By you reacting to his song (s) and recommending him to your reactor friends, that really can help him. Thank you for this one, bye

[@Nickery1]

Thnx .. for giving attention to this most sympathetic and great Dutch singer ! .... with an amazing beautifull wife as well and together mom and dad since a few months .they also show the way they live ( and work ! ) verry down to earth ... through a flog ... Viva la Vera !

Yes, Danny Vera! He is such a nice guy, and is always spreading love and kindness at his concerts! He did some nice home recordings during lockdown as well, like 'Zijn het je ogen'

[@MarcovandenHout]

Definitely, I know him from back when he was a student at the Rock Academy in Tilburg. He was nice and humble but already very good back then, and I'm not at all surprised to hear he still is.

Danny Vera is a great singer and a big fan from singer-songwriter Chris Isaak. I've seen them both in Tilburg (Netherlands) in June 2010. Danny was there the support act from Chris Isaak. A great show from both of them. Danny was very honored.

[@hermannus3894]

Funfact, back in the days, when you got an autograph of Chris, he drew a silhoutte of his face with it. Very nice and good looking.

[@peterthefox2076]

You are soooooooo right, the older music had so much more quality than nowadays. And in the Nederlands they appreciate real music and real voices. There are also some "artists" who are using autotune but they are not appreciated in the Netherlands by the major music lovers. This song from Danny is real, like Ogene, Within Temptation and all the others.

[@ingridwatsup9671]

Still on the musical journey with you: enjoying it tremendously. Thank you. Don’t forget your own quality time……

[@patsildenzin]

I watch you're channel for a amount of days now and you're honesty and feeling about the music is nice to see. This song from Dany Vera means al lot to me. And it gives me goosebumps every time i listen to the song This is song made in 2019 I was 49 years and then diagnosed with cancer. I was really on a rollercoaster at that time because of my uncertain illness. This song reminds me of how uncertain is the time I would have with my loved ones Now it's 2024 and I am for now cancer free. But now I see your channel and the way you listen and feel the music is beautiful. I'm going to see more of this now. Thanks

[@HighlyCombustibleReacts]

Thanks for watching and glad to see that you are feeling better!

[@bradtaggart5509]

You know Bro, I have been listening to Danny now for about a year or so, because I have become friends with one of your fellow fans Wilma, who lives in the Netherlands, and sent me this song and another you reviewed a year later, Tennessee Whisky, with Mell, on the train. For the life of me, I don’t know why he isn’t a star here in the USA. He is amazing, and Mell was amazing with him in the other song.

[@vlinder6329]

Danny Vera writes and sings right from the heart in spite of mainstream commercial music. He's a authentic gem. I love you appreciating him. Thanks.

Thank you so much for your lovely reaction. I knew you would love it 😊 isn't wonderful to see the faces of the people playing the instruments and see how much they love making music. It really makes me happy. And his voice and the lyrics! The rollercoasters of life, we all get our highs and lows, isn't it? At the end the all make our lifes worth while. The highs give us the hapiness and the deeps make us the people we are and our strength. Another lovely song to react to is from Yebba, my mind, the live performance. I don't know much about her, I think she's American. But in that performance she shows her deepest feeling. It's so vunerable and beautiful. Thanks again for reacting on Danny! ❤

Have you heard what passes for country these days in the US? His style is seen by the country audience of there as 'old school' (if they are positive) or 'outdated' (if they have no idea of the history of country).

[@hannekezijlmans6578]

Did you notice he switched up a full octave when the strings started playing? (And lowered back to the initial low key at the end...) Danny has an incredible versatile voice. This performance isn't at the same level as the album version though, he seems to be a bit out of breath in the lower parts, which doesn't do the song justice, and also seems to make him a bit hesitant at the guitar... which is a real shame because the studio version (and some live versions too) is absolute perfection. I had been listening to this song on the radio for half a year when I found out he is Dutch... I had no idea.

[@paulf2557]

First time hearing - country is far from a favourite genre for me, but he has a lovely voice and the backing musicians are wonderful. So will certainly give him another shot or two of listens - even if he is unlikely to make it onto my home playlist. Everyone should give everyone a chance or three - nothing new will ever be discovered otherwise. I won't like everything - but at least I tried, all the way through - as I do on all new artists for me that Mr H features. I can't do fairer than that.

It is not strictly country what he does, it is an amalgam of country, rock’n roll and even a bit of soul. And he shares something with Marillion in that he is as much a cottage industry as they are. He own his records and sells them directly to his fans but also sets up distribution deals to get them into record stores. He has a really cool weekly vlog with his (quite gorgeous) wife and you regularly see him packing / shipping the merchandise ordered through his webshop.

You should listen to the studio version of the song... he seems a little out of breath in this version which is a shame really. In the studio version (and some other live versions too) you will hear even more depth in his voice, mainly in the lower parts.
