Every now & then we post songs in Dutch on this blog, because a) hey, we're Dutch and b) they're good stuff! Take this short but sweet, Spinvis-ish track by Leiden's Kris Kringel. Dunno who disguises behind that moniker, probably one of the guys from Smikkelbaard Records. If odd, leftfield stuff is your thing (and it should be, why are you here then?!) check out their other releases. Back to Kris now, he recorded two covers, in Dutch, of 'O Come All Ye Faithful' (aka Komt allen tezamen) and 'El decembre congelat' (aka 'Midden in de winternacht'), plus an orignal. 'Flappie in de pizza' is a story about Christmas not being a feast for everyone, especially when you're a rabbit.
By the way, Smikkelbaard released a few singles from the Plurex catalogue, one of the first indie labels in the Netherlands. This was one of the very first punk singles ever released in the lowlands.
Flappie in de Pizza maakt Sjef Kok en de Toetjes overbodig. Allebei uit Leiden, dus samen uitvechten wie de grootste indiekersttipparadekanshebber heeft geschreven. Gelukkig hebben jullie ook Catapult, Buzz Buzz & de Strippenkaarten en de grootste Kerstzangeres van Nederland, de onsterfelijke Zangeres Zonder Naam. Zingt allen mee: "Hij was maar een neger, zo'n zwarte..."
