    This song was released in 1982. That was in the middle of the Cold War, with the USSR still intact, and a dictator in Chile, and in many more places in the world.
    In those days, Belgium was looked at with amusement by us Dutchies as them not being so bright. We had a lot of 'Belgium jokes'. This song played on that sentiment (by contemplating going to Belgium), and may have started easing that attitude.
    [Edit] We played this record at swing parties, and everyone sang along, belting out the chorus "BELGIË ... BELGIË ... BEL GIIEE JUUU !!!"

      I, as a Dutchman, can recognize that the Dutch that live above the Rhine tend to be somewhat miserly (cheap) and reserved, but less nowadays I think. However I don't have the impression that Flemish are stupid in any way. More likely that the Dutch were jealous at their carefreeness and spontanuity.
      Anyway nowadays I think Dutch have a more international outlook and don't feel the need to look down on other countries that much. Probably largely due to internet.

      @@aorta538 Wat u zegt klopt van geen kanten. België, Luxemburg en Nederland waren 1 land De namen Belgica en de Nederlanden werden voor het hele gebied gebruikt.
      De afsplitsing was met de Belgische (Brusselse) revolutie tegen koning Willem I die protestants was en de zuidelijke Nederlanden niet tegemoet wilde komen in hun eisen.
      Willem I pakte de onvrede van de zuiderlingen zo onhandig en arrogant aan dat het zuiden zich succesvol afscheidde. Om te zeggen dat alles wat Belgisch is oorspronkelijk Nederlands is is onzin, De Nederlanden hebben zich opgesplitst in 2 koninkrijken en een Hertogdom. Helaas, maar zo is het gegaan. Naar mijn ervaring staan de inwoners van Nederland, België en Luxemburg nu op zeer vriendschappelijke voet met elkaar.
      Dit liedje is een soort liefdesliedje (ode) van Nederland aan België. De reden dat de verteller toch niet naar België verhuist is dat hij geen enkel risico wil nemen en Niet omdat er iets mis zou zijn met België in tegenstelling tot de rest van de wereld.
      Het liedje is natuurlijk vooral gekscherend bedoeld.
      Ikzelf ben ook een in Nederland woonachtige Nederlander en mijn gevoel naar België is alleen maar positief, als het hier onleefbaar wordt, en daar begint het op te lijken met de huidige boeren- en gascrisis, zou ik graag naar België verhuizen.

    Too bad you skipped the musically beautiful outro :(. The geste of the song is actually simple: We here in the Netherlands have it pretty damn good (and it was argueably even better in 1982 when this song came out) that there are only a few countries in this world that you could emigrate to and expect to have it better over all...
    Is Belgium that country? Well... there are certainly things that are better in Belgium, that is for sure. And there are things that are not as good as they are here. But I certainly will recommend visiting Belgium.

      1514-1795, all the land was united. Most Dutch feel related to the flemish speakers, that we can all recognise by their accent. That they, off course, have many different accents and dialects speaks for itself.

      @@DVineMe Very interesting. I am from North Brabant myself, I always have felt 'one' with the Brabanders in Belgium, with all Dutch speaking citizens of Belgium, really. I dont think we have the same feeling for the French speakers: they 'belong' to France, in a way, culturally, I think. The Brabanders at least feel that they have been cut off from their Belgian Dutch speaking 'family'. I think many (or at least a pretty substantial group) of Dutch would consider Dutch speaking Belgium to be, somehow, part of our culture, that we should be united (that last part is pretty rare actually). Somehow: our Dutch speaking cousins in Belgium got ripped away from the motherland. We should in my opinion strive for the unity of the Dutch speaking area's. I consider Vlamingen as a part of the Netherlands, lol.
      Can you elaborate on the history of Luxemburg a bit? Most 'grootNederlanders' that I know always include 'luxemburg' into the parst of land the Dutch have a claim on: but they dont even speak Dutch there, right? So, is it (historically) part of the Netherlands, or no?

    • @baskoning9896
      @baskoning9896 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@DVineMe Yes, interesting. I looked up 'Walloon' (the language), never heard of that before, you know a lot about history.
      About the Burgundian attitude the Flemish have, that also exists in Brabant (and perhaps Limburg as well), there is a clear difference in culture between the south (with the soft G) and the north (harsh G). The Dutch North-Brabanders feel totally at home with the Flemish (there are some minor cultural differences over time off course, but compared to holland, we have more in common with vlaanderen).
      I do think language is important, not in itself, perhaps. But its a carrier of information. For me, as a native Dutch speaker, to be able to speak in Dutch to another person automatically creates a kinship: we can communicate, with near zero filters, very efficient, very open, with nearly no chance of misunderstandings.
      If someone speaks French to us, there is an automatic barrier. A silence. A moment of 'I have no clue what is going on'. Even if we learn school French, it takes so much effort to communicate clearly about complex matters in French, that we hesitate to engage.
      That then leads to cultural cohesion: inside the language group, and it starts to grow away from the groups with which we cant (or wont) communicate (that much).
      I think (but I dont know much history), that Belgium as a country is an abomination: created as a buffer state, with at least 2 major cultures forced to now live together, and with Brussel being neither. The power Brussels now has in the EU makes it almost a washington DC: 'outside' of the normal provinces (states in the usa): more 'elite', sitting high above and separated from the normal citizens.
      The North Brabanders and Limburgers will get along with the Flemish just fine. Brussel, we will nuke, lol just kidding.
      The gap with the Walen will be much larger, imho, and the same problem will emerge when Luxemburg theoretically would join the Netherlands.
      We would simply not understand them. Their language, and following from that, slowly our culture that has drifted apart over time.
      Can you please elaborate on how Flemish, Wallonians, and people from Brussel see their relation with France, Netherlands, and Belgium? Are they loyal to Belgium? Do some want to split? Or are there voices even to join the Netherlands or France? The 'grootNederland' idea is not very popular in the Netherlands, I would guess about 1 in 200 supports it. But it is slowly growing, I would say. People like the status quo (if it works, why change it), but they do admit mostly when probed, that actually at least the Flemish and Dutch are one culture-group of people, that ideally would share a country.
      Not that it matters much in the EU nowadays, but still, the idea lingers on.

      Why is your comment this offensive about the joined history of Belgium, Luxembourg and The Netherlands originating from Magna Frisia to the Batavian Republic, the Spanish rule on to the Republic of the Seven United Netherlands. If the latter wasn't declared, Belgium would speak Spanish now.
      You can't rewrite history by cherry-picking the things you prefer.
      You obviously are proud of Belgium, as you should be. But you cannot look away from the division of Belgium in three language areas.

    4:27 The 'Leeuw van Waterloo' (Lion of Waterloo) is a pyramid that we (the Dutchman) has build after our vicotry (with other countries) victory over the Napoleon's French Army. I've heard that the 'Pyramide van Austerlitz' (Pyramid of Austerlitz) was a model for the 'Leeuw van Waterloo'. A fun fact, the 'Pyramide van Austerlitz' was build by the French army of Napoleon. You can build a pyramid? We can do it as well! And we will if you lost to us! A kind of war humor. The Lion of Waterloo looks to the south or the southwest. That is in the direction of France. Officially that has no meaning. But it is a little bit too coincidental. Why doesn't the Lion look to te north, the Netherlands? Or to the east, Germany? Of the west, England? Tell it me.

    There's a meme version of this song that's called "Belgie maar het is exorbitant kut", they edited the singer's lines to say really funny stuff. It's hard to listen to the original when you're used to that version haha

    If we go old school, you should also watch/listen to a song dedicated to one of the many sterotypes, the Dutch as Coffee drinkers. The ode to coffee, the link is Dutch lyrics only (no visual, as the visual ones I found had no text, this way you can get the song text translated) th-cam.com/video/BfSCL8w55k4/w-d-xo.html

    That 'castle castle' you're talking about at 4:21 is not a castle. It's the Our Lady's cathedral in Antwerp.

    Flemish and Dutch both speak Nederlands, with their own characteristics.
    It is a well known and largely true stereotype that the Flemish and (Catholic) Southern Dutch are quite Bourgondisch, meaning they love to enjoy good food, (alcoholic) drinks and other pleasures of life whereas the (Protestant) Northern Dutch are much more inhibited and seem to suffer from a collective guilt complex, shyness and to much seriousness.
    This protestant mindset may be responsible for a somewhat higher economy but recently the Netherlands seem to get into a serious conflict with itself regarding how much we should do everything the EU tells us or whether we should stand up more for ourselves, an example for this is the widescale farmers protests and the fact that the very right seems to become the largest political power just waiting to replace the present centrist very pro EU government.
    Unfortunately we just had our elections a year ago, so we will probably have to wait 3 more years before a dramatic change in policy can be expected. I expect the Netherlands will then start following a more Nationalistic course as a reaction on the current crisis, what impact that will have on our EU relation will have to be seen.

    I know it won't really work if you don't have the European experience of knowing the connotation of French car quality problems of the 80s, but Franse Auto is another great song by Het Goede Doel, which is about as harsh as it gets.

      @@WillyWokkel A Belgian gets up in the morning and goes to collect eggs in his garden. He picks them up and then sees that an egg has ended up in the neighbor's garden (The neighbor is a Dutchman), the Belgian asks the Dutchman to give him the egg from his garden, but the Dutchman does not want to give it back at all because everything what lies on his territory is his property (or so he thinks). Says the Belgian: "Shall we play a game for the egg". The Dutchman agrees, the game revolves around taking turns kicking each other in the crotch and the first one to cry out in pain loses. "I kick first" Says the Belgian. The Belgian kicks very hard in the Dutchman's crotch, the Dutchman makes all the dance steps in the world but does not open his mouth. After fifteen minutes of recovery, the Dutchman says "Now it's my turn". The Belgian says: "It's all right, you can keep the egg!!".
