Direct released this song in the spring of 2020. It became our battle song against corona. The lead singer Marcel has the most amazing sensitive voice!
Your reaction to the lyric " nobody cares how you feel like they think your heart doesn't bleed the same", man I want to jump through the screen and give you a hug, or whatever to comforts you man. Great job, hope you have beaten your demons. ❤
Being a Dutch veteran… thank you. It’s Al a matter of quality to the max. The music, the voice, the song text, above all… the message. It makes you stronger, bring proudness back into your mind.
Tim Akkerman (Beste Zangers) was their first lead vocalist, and btw please also check out Danny Vera with Rollercoaster. Danny was a class mate of Floor Jansen at the Rockacademy, you will love it
Misschien. Alain Clark. Met change Will come. Zou ook wil een dingetje zijn denk ik. Btw denk dat jen soldier on ook maar es moet luisteren agree? 😊😉Greetzzzz
This song reaction is 3 weeks old, but you don’t know half how much i needed this. Struggling my battles for over 3 years now, and it’s up and down on how good or bad it goes by the day. And because I’m in a wheelchair everybody wants to debate on your on life and health, which is not always a good thing. Love this video and reaction on it. ❤️
This song means a lot, also our Dutch fight song against Corona. And you are, i think, a real positive person and that means also a lot for people that see your reactions. You make them also feel better and maybe also even some that will fight more for themselves 🙏
Owwwwh please, Fighting Against expressed genetic particles that has some influence on reverse transcriptase activity is so not about virusses. I would say Keep Fighting Against your believe System, because we are being so manipulated. The rest of your message is certainly approved.
Every time I hear this song, it brings my grandfather a little bit back to me. He was a POW in WWII in Japan, but he survived and raised family well despite all PTST issues and worked his fingers to the bone. I was too young when he died at 65 of heartfalure to realise it all, because no-one ever spoke about it. But this song tells all about the struggle he must have felt.
This song still makes me emotional. At the beginning of the Corona outbreak in the netherlands, people were expressing their respect/support for the doctors and nurses fighting against the virus. Every evening images of that, Made by drones with camera’s were on tv with the sound of this song.
Dude! I love your sincerity! Your reactions make me laugh and cry at the same time. I get touched by the way you express your emotions. Keep it up! I'm an instant fan ❤
I wish my son soldier on,he take his own life 1 year ago.we try to help him but he don,t want it..now we have to soldier on for our other kids..I think I can..😥😥😥
Yes, this so wonderful! A song for everybody who needs to feel the strong person inside you. Such a gifted singer he is. Thank you! We also have Danny Vera, you will love rollercoaster. Have a nice day 😊
Great song i am fighting with my demons for 26 years and it is hard but i know life is beautiful and i will make it, i gif you a big hug from Oisterwijk the netherlands
Thank you for your great reactions on every video, thank you for the respect you have for our great singers, I would invite you to come to the Netherlands when it is possible and the time is there 👍
this song was made to honour the veterans, for the remembrence of ww2 and all the wars after that. Unfortunately, it's meaning got lost due to covid19. My husband is a veteran of war, so I love this song, that honours him. Nobody can see my husband is a veteran, but he has his battles still and he soldiers on. I love him for having done his duty to this country (the Netherlands) and for going on.
I had to watch this now again, at the moment i just needed it. Last days were not all good, only last sunday when i worked on a festival, even very close to my house (less then 3 km) where famous Dutch and also from other countries came (Lil Kleine + Boef and Frenna for example) the name of the festival was Parels van de Stad (pearls of the city)
You are so right, your inner voice is the most important 'cause nobody else can here it and feel what you feel. There is always this light in the distance, no matter how small
You are right. I just got on board but realy felt you needed it and it would fit you and to send it to you. 😊 Think the eyes are paraps about a new spirit that comes in him? Not shure.
It was a wonderful and meaningful performance. I'm having the same feelings right now, thanks for reacting to this video, I got to know it thanks to you.
Hi, I just wanted to say that I love your reaction video's. Your passion and respect for the music and artists is awesome. You have to watch another Di-rect video of a Young the giant cover. The song my body wich was played in a music studio on air with host Giel. They have so much energy that it works contagious. Look for Di-rect, my body live Giel and yoy will find it. Can't wait what you think. Greatings from Stefan in Holland
Nice reaction! powerful words in this song, after this song this is also one of my favorite songs from direct try this one it's live and so beautiful! DI-RECT - All In Vain (De Duif Sessions)
I needed this song and mostly your words that came with it....Yesterday was great. Top of the mountain and today I came down again. Wanted to do all sorts of stuf. Did nothing, gave up. Hardly left the sofa. I let my head mess with me way too much....Making all the small things harder than need be, let alone the bigger things in life.... Today everything looks unacheavable. I can be so much happier. Just standing in my own way, way too much... Specially today. Crap. Crying now. But thank you for accidentally saying what I needed to hear when I needed it.....
This was chosen to be out national corona anthem. Although it was not written with this purpose. It is really very beautifull. And I love their singer. He feels the song deep in his bones and that makes me feel the song too. Please listen to another Beste Zangers performance. The one I mean is Nick Schilder singing Halleluja. Really so beautifull. This was from the beste zangers season in 2012. Thanx 😀😃👍🏼👍🏼
I recently talk to the lead singer and he is a funny down to earth guy and a talented vocalist.. I had no idea he was in this band as he never mentioned it... Someone else told me.. Superb song.. His vocals also remind me of mick Hucknall ( simply red)..
Paul you are so wright whit your reaction . i whas also depressed and feeling alone but you and your hxc Canal put me trough a difficult time (the pandemic) . in Holland we had a lockdown and a nightclock a view months ago and as a single not married guy like me that whas really a dark and difficult time. But now i have a dog and he is just 8 weeks old and so now a liability to him . and that whas my best discussion ever because now a have someting to care for and when i come home he is there to welcome me . so everything is going great now. Thanx Paul for all of your reations and great music you let me listen to. Bye bye. ❤🤗👍😁
i see this , a lot of times , . mates i know get there arms and you can stil see it in how they react. its a part of live what you NEVER forget and go,s on. live go on but you never forget. thanks..
You know by the way that this is the old band from Tim Akkerman, the Guy where Floor sings shallow with in Beste zangers (I see Nimwey already Told you and had the same thoughts on Danny Vera...😬☺️😉). Check out Some old songs like adrenaline Or rollercoaster. And speaking about rollercoasters, check out Danny Vera with Rollercoaster. Very popular over here in the Netherlands!
like your genuine reactions. from the heart. speaking of heart...you should listen to Wild Hearts from Di-Rect...you'll love it...great build up in the song which will give you Marcels singing potential
Hey buddy. The question at the end that you ask about the blue eye of the guy is blue. Blue is the hope or future. That is the way I thought. Hope you and me in the same thought. You are my true friend online. Will follow. 🙏👆❤️😇
If you like emotional dutch songs, you should definitely watch 'echte vent' van Racoon or "hey joh Jip' also from Racoon. These songs are both in dutch but beautiful!
I now that you now this. For the Dutch veteranse this is a speciale song,! I now wone of dem, he surved in Servië as a 17 year old boy. Sinds than he is lost in the world after that! I dont now were he is now. If new him fore a short wail, but i hope he is oké ! Sorry for my maby not so good Amerikan/ inglisch
Especially written for us, Dutch militairy veterans. Thank you Direct.
Direct released this song in the spring of 2020. It became our battle song against corona. The lead singer Marcel has the most amazing sensitive voice!
as well as a song for all the veterans (of WWII and beyond)
Yes. It’s our 2020 song 🤍🙏🏼
Really the song is written for the lead singer's pregnant wife who keeps on going strong! But yeah, it became way more than just that!
More like the battle song against the corona measures lol
Our battle Against corona!? Owh Jolanda this is so not about corona.

This one cuts through your soul, how music brings out the deepest of emotions.

No, its written especially for Dutch militairy veterans. Find some other song for your hoax.
DANNY VERA “RollerCoaster”
Every time I hear this song, it brings my grandfather a little bit back to me. He was a POW in WWII in Japan, but he survived and raised family well despite all PTST issues and worked his fingers to the bone. I was too young when he died at 65 of heartfalure to realise it all, because no-one ever spoke about it. But this song tells all about the struggle he must have felt.

Give "Shoes of Sleep" a try, a beautiful song Di-Rect recorded when they collaborated with Dutch/Frisian singer/songwriter Nynke Laverman.
There is also a Dutch Veterans Day version!
Soldier on my BIA's & SIA's.

To be loved you first need to love yourself. ❤✌
Listen to the same song from them but then their home session! Then you hear his voice for real. So good!!
I recently talk to the lead singer and he is a funny down to earth guy and a talented vocalist.. I had no idea he was in this band as he never mentioned it... Someone else told me.. Superb song.. His vocals also remind me of mick Hucknall ( simply red)..
One fun fact is that the singer of direct marcel also did all the dutch Phineas and Ferb songs including the dutch intro song!
you cant change the past but you can change the future
Paul you are so wright whit your reaction . i whas also depressed and feeling alone but you and your hxc Canal put me trough a difficult time (the pandemic) . in Holland we had a lockdown and a nightclock a view months ago and as a single not married guy like me that whas really a dark and difficult time.

I think his voice remindes you of Chris Martin from Coldplay. Beautiful song and a great personal reaction from you once again.
Maybe a fun thing you would like to know, Tim (you did also a video of him from beste zangers) was the previous singer from Di-rect.
his voice always remind me of passenger

Tim Dawn covered 'to love somebody' from the beegees. A very good cover and deserves to be watched and reacted to.

Thank you, I will
Marcel is Unique 🤍

Glass is not half empty, but half full....
I watched you’re reaction many times. And it give me goosebumps all the time. Best reaction of this song all time.
Thanks!
The have a own sound but they are often compared with Coldplay. Pls check Danny Vera, Hold on or Rollecoster
If you like emotional dutch songs, you should definitely watch 'echte vent' van Racoon or "hey joh Jip' also from Racoon. These songs are both in dutch but beautiful!
Marcel is a realy great singer, isn’t he?
I think his voice looks like the voice of Mick Hucknall from
Simply Red
Look up Ruben Hein! He’s a great musician!
I now that you now this. For the Dutch veteranse this is a speciale song,! I now wone of dem, he surved in Servië as a 17 year old boy. Sinds than he is lost in the world after that! I dont now were he is now. If new him fore a short wail, but i hope he is oké ! Sorry for my maby not so good Amerikan/ inglisch
Please react to Marco Borsato & Marcel Veenendaal - De Bestemming (LIVE). (Marcel is the singer of Direct)
Hey brother man. Great reaction as usual. You should react to my girl Shania Twain.
En weer een Nederlandse band/ artiest
Mooi toch dat ze zo de wereld over gaan , vele youtubers uit vele landen plaatsen onze artiesten .
Geweldig he, leuk om naar te kijken
The first verse reminds me of Simply Red a little!
Thar beginning is very much Coldplay like. But only the beginning.
