Dutch? Don't make me laugh)) Marishka Veres was Hungarian. The music of "Venus" was stolen from Tim Rose: "The Banjo Song" by The Big 3, an American folk trio. And both Americas were stolen from Native Indians. Europeans only know how to steal someone else's. But it will not work with Little Russia aka Old Rus and Ukraine, - our Daggers and Zircons are in vigilant combat duty mode. Glory to Russia!

Once upon a time, artists produced quality songs both lyrically and musically. It was a delight to the ears of any music lover. You could listen to it endlessly. " Venus...." released in 1969 and still popular in 2023...! The sixties, seventies, eighties... great times or in other words... heydays for rock music...! Big contrast to the current music experience...! And let's be honest, what a beautiful lead singer or " Maria Elizabeth ENDER " better known as " Mariska VERES " at her best...! Sadly you left us far too soon sweetheart, but you will always be in my thoughts. Beautiful memories of you. R.I.P. and greetings to the Netherlands...! SHOCKING BLUE... pure youth sentiment...!

What a beautiful 🎵 🎶 song an all time classic 👌 ❤, *** western Australia 🇦🇺

[@paulyosef7550]

Always a great song, I remember from my youth. She could not speak English and sang phonetically. Despite the free-spirited lifestyle of so many in the music industry at that time, Mariska never embraced the rock n roll lifestyle. She never drank or took drugs and made it clear upon joining the band that she would not get romantically involved with any of the members. She was pleasantly naïve, when the bands founder and chief lyricist, Robbie Van Leeuwen shouted at her she burst into tears and rang her mother who promptly phoned the band’s manager to complain!In 2006 Mariska Veres died of cancer. She never married or had any children. By her own admission she was unapproachable in the early days, she considered herself as little more than a doll who never found true inner happiness until she turned her back on the industry and pressures of being a beautiful woman in the spotlight. So here’s the video to her most successful single with the Shocking Blue. The lip synching is not great, it never was back then but she certainly has a presence. Forget comparisons with todays artists and imagine seeing her in the late sixties for the first time, there was just something about her…

People like you use the word "iconic" frivolously. I see it all the time here on KZbin. Iconic means timeless and globally known, which is not the case. Iconic is that scene from Titanic where the leading couple stands on the bow of the ship, not a scene from a show that if you ask people, 19 out of 20 haven't seen, and nobody will remember in five years.

[@marcosc9130]

@@Davidman3976 If by people like me you mean people currently working in English Literature Master degree, yes maybe. Iconic means: " very famous or popular, especially being considered to represent particular opinions" according to Cambridge Dictionary.

It's common in American English to link T+Y as tʃ (CH as in chair) so she really sang it as a-choor." Pretty good for a Dutch girl.

[@stevebarton8313]

Just to confirm what I knew I found this online- Originally, vocalist Mariska Veres could not speak English and was singing phonetically; this was the reason for her occasional stumble over the lyrics, such as the opening line of their 1970 hit song “Venus”: “God-ness on a mountaintop . . .”. So your comment that she sang in or spoke American-English would be wrong. How would she know that t+y in American-English would sound like a-choor?
