This is a song we got to hear as a child, it will never leave your brain.. Everytime you hear Flappie, or when its Christmas, the song has to be acknowledged.

[@okidoki878]

I wasn’t a child when this song came out

I often cried hearing this when I was really young. Until the last part came and I started laughing

[@ER2fan]

​@okidoki878 sure... (im not saying it's not possible) but that means your AT LEAST 56 years old

[@zephyrus339]

These reactions are hilarious if you're Dutch. Literally every Dutchman knows this song. Every Dutchman knows how it's going to end. Seeing these KZbinrs clueless about the how and why till the twists is just hilarious. This song is also realistic. Till way after the second world war it was very common for families to keep an animal (like a pig or indeed a rabbit) just for the meat. Flappie basically happened to my mother. Though not at Christmas. And no, that's not how I lost that grandfather.

[@isagoumans198]

For sure it is hilarious to see them clueless on how this is gonna end🤣. Really much love for them to take there time and put efford in this to make those videos!! But I hope that's not the way you grandfather dieth. Really sorry for your mother! It does really much pain to lose a animal and for sure on that way!!

[@zephyrus339]

@@isagoumans198 My grandfather on that side of the family died long before I was born. Pretty sure it was due to chainsmoking. It did hurt her to loose her rabbit that way. When her rabbit was served to her, my mother refused to eat it, making her own mother cry. It should be noted her family was poor an this was one of the few sources of meat they had.

[@badboattail]

The name Flappie is referring to the big ears of the rabbit, like "flap eared" in English. The Dutch word for that is "flaporen".

[@marcusfranconium3392]

No christmass with out Flappie . The man singing it is a celebrated comedian , he can start verry light harted and hit you with a dose of reality that will thunder in your ears for days.

Flappie is the most funny christmas song in the Netherlands. If you're Dutch and never heard about Flappie, you must have been living under a rock. 😉

Best Dutch Christmas story ever. And indeed, we need to hear it every year. It has become part of Dutch Christmas traditions.

[@Trazynn]

Dutch stand-up comedy is different. It's closer to theater and an art-form. It's way more abstract, poetic but also gut-wrenching than American comedy. Not neccesarily better in general. There's a lot of comedians who just end up being pretentious about it, and even the top comedians are hit and miss. But yeah, when it gets good, it gets good. Hans Teeuwen did a show in English, the dude is his own sub-genre of Dutch comedy as he's going real deep in absurdism, a lot of his jokes aren't supposed to make much are incredibly meta.

[@milamar7777]

[@notmyrealnameify]

Flappie is a cute name for a rabbit. It flaps with it's ears when it moves around. It's indeed a name for a pet not for a main course^^. Do remember this is 1961 (60 years ago), it was a lot more common to keep animals for meat back then in the Netherlands (many would have seen what they did it in the song as cruel to the child, even back then). Nowadays I only know a few farmers that kill a chicken once in a while or bring a pig to the slaughter house. It's not something you see often anymore in the Netherlands.

[@monicacarolina6480]

hahaha, Flappie! That's Dutch humor. Pretty dark and raw :)

[@hercufles]

Im maybe late with this but it was a tradition in netherlands that rabbit got fed till its big and then was eaten at chrismas, my mother had the same thing when she was little, she him because of that

[@spookmineer]

Some inception going on here. For me, it's not Xmas until Flappie has been on the radio.

[@Treinbouwer]

Until the banning of home slaughter it was comon practice to keep animals for food, especialy in the countryside. Post war Europe was realy poor, so it was helpfull to get some food from your garden.😅 And you can name pets, also if you are going to eat it and Kids like having pets.🙃

[@Dellavo666]

I remember the first time I heart this song I was a child and at first I was like please let them find Flappie and than the part of christmas dinner came I was lik ow no wat a terible song how sad and than the end came I was like lol that is funny I love this song and I love tot hear this song Every christmas

[@saskiajongirl4effahh894]

Most pet rabbits here named FLAPPIE , becouse of there big floppy ears, thats the ""joke"" why now dad is the main course. Becouse mom also already knew flappie was dead

[@chubbymoth5810]

Flappie could be best translated as Floppy,.. as in floppy bunny ears.

[@Dasypodidae45]

Fun to see you reacting to Highly reacting. It's almost like your doing a duo reaction.

[@arthurkroes4027]

This song is the most heard around Xmas next to Mariah carry (flappy is te most commen name for bunny's / flappy ears)

[@jaccovalkenburg79vdaal]

It's such a good dutch song .. Every year in Christmas time this song is on the big radio stations! Its already a old song . but here in Holland we like the dark humor behind this story telling song.. Joep is comedian by the way and no hitlist singer that's also cool about this. Greetings jacco from the Netherlands 😜. Highly is already in my abonnee list of KZbin for a long time . he's great. Does a lott of video's about holland. 😊👊

Het was kerstochtend 1961 Ik weet het nog zo goed Mijn konijnenhok was leeg En moeder zei dat ik niet in de schuur mocht komen En als ik lief ging spelen dat ik dan wat lekkers kreeg Zij wist ook niet waar Flappie uit kon hangen Ze zou het papa vragen maar omdat die bezig was In dat fietsenschuurtje moest ik maar een uurtje Goed naar Flappie zoeken Hij liep vast wel ergens op het gras Maar ik had 't hok toch goed dicht gedaan? Zoals ik dat elke avond deed Ik was de vorige avond zelfs nog terug gegaan Ik weet ook niet waarom ik dat deed Ik had heel lang voor het hok gestaan alsof ik wist Wat ik nu weet Het was eerste kerstdag 1961 Wij naar Flappie zoeken vader Die zocht gewoon mee Bij de bomen en het water Maar niet in dat fietsenschuurtje Want daar kon die toch niet zitten? En ik schudde nee We zochten samen, samen tot de koffie De familie aan de koffie, maar ik hoefde niet Ik dacht aan Flappie en dat het 's nachts zo koud kon vriezen Mijn hoofdje stil gebogen dikke tranen van verdriet Want ik had het hok toch goed dicht gedaan? Zo als ik dat elke avond deed Ik was de vorige avond zelfs nog terug gegaan Ik weet ook niet waarom ik dat deed Ik had heel lang voor het hok gestaan alsof ik wist Wat ik nu weet Het was eerste kerstdag 1961 Er werd luidruchtig gegeten maar dat deed me niet zoveel Ik dacht aan Flappie, mijn eigen kleine Flappie Waar zou die lopen, geen hap ging door m'n keel Toen na de soep het hoofdgerecht moest komen Sprak mijn vader uiterst grappig "Kijk Youp daar is Flapte dan" En ik zie de zilveren schaal nog en daar lag ie in 3 stukken Voor het eerst zag ik mijn vader als een vreselijke man En ik ben gillend en stampend naar bed gegaan Heb eerst een uur liggen huilen op de sprei Nog één keer scheldend boven aan de trap gestaan En geschreeuwd Flappie was van mij Nog heel lang voor het raam gestaan maar het hok stond er maar verlaten bij Het was tweede kerstdag 1961 Moeder weet dat nog zó goed, vaders bed was leeg En ik zei dat zij niet in de schuur mocht komen En als ze lief ging spelen dat ze dan wat lekkers kreeg here you go

A hopefully forgotten habit feeding your family's pet rabbit which was rather common back in the 20th century up to 1980 btw a traditional Christmas dish is a rabbit unlike a turkey

[@sannevandekamp4982]

he sings. I remember it so well, the rabbits cage was empty.

[@bobosims1848]

That was fun, wasn't it? @Highly Combustible pronounced the name "Flappie" correctly, and it *is* a pet's name. The name refers to the long, floppy ears of the rabbit. Many Dutch rabbits are called that. Of course, this is all in jest. Youp is a Dutch comedian; he does one-man cabaret, and in his younger years he was quite popular, because he could be very direct, even rude. And coming from another Dutchman (me), that characterization is saying something. Of late, he's getting a little soft and whiny, but maybe he should be excused, since he's getting older, and his health has failed him a few times lately. For more info, check: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Youp_van_%27t_Hek

[@LAU-ik6dp]

😂😂😂 oh noooo, Flappie👀

[@jankuiper3422]

This kinda happened to me as a kid. I had a pet rooster but is was a bit to loud in a urban area so my grandpa said he'd take it. He had a huge pen in the back of his yard, so we thought it would be a good idea. Next time we went to my grandpa I wanted to see the rooster. He walked me up to his fridge, and there was my rooster.

[@QuintenTheMad]

Ok i see this video just now, and im a dutch guy..... What is the word flappie ? The word Flappie is a name, children often give these names to there rabbit pets. Because rabbits have floppy ears, in dutch we call those "vlap oren". So because rabbits are cute animals and everybody loves them, children often give there rabbit a name like "Flappie" because of its ears or "Fluffy" because its a fluffy pet, or "Sproet" because they have these spots on there fur. So thats what Flappie means, its just a simple cudle name given by a child to a rabbit 😊

[@SvenBout]

FLAPPIE!!!

[@fjvmunsterman]

Having rabbit for dinner every year at Christmas in the Netherlands, is similar to Americans having turkey at the thanksgiving meal, it's that prevalent in both societies. For us, the meal started of with goulash soup, followed with small cooked potatoes with vegetables and gravy, and the rabbit was pretty much in the gravy itself, and the meal often ended with some ice-cream and whipped cream. Everything was self made though, and my mom always spent several days in the kitchen preparing everything, and it was always very tasty. But it eventually kinda started to irk me a little bit, having that same meal every year. Later on we switched around a bit more with Christmas dinners, though.

[@isagoumans198]

In the Netherlands, no matter witch animal you have it will be a pet for us. I have chickens and bunny's and they all have names so that doesn't really mean something else. So Flappie is a really common name for a rabbit, probally one of the most popular ones. So no we don't call our animals dinner😂

[@Treinbouwer]

Until the banning of home slaughter pets would have been called dinner when they were dinner.😂 Every once in a while I hear stories about it from my grandparents.🙃

Yeah, the big problem in this story isn’t eating the rabbit for Christmas - but letting your young kid think that it’s his pet first is borderline abusive, let alone letting them find out only when the roast is served. That’s gonna fuck you up, man.
