Doe Maar feat. Def P.  Aan de bewonders van dit pand   Favoriting To the residents of this property
You'll have to leave this house
You haven't taken care of it enough
There was not enough laughter
There was too much crying in here
No-one ever sang a song in here
No one ever created anything in here
It's dull, it's cold
You'll have two weeks to discuss this situation
with our counseler

Yours truly,

your only chance in life

Liesbeth List  Victoria   Favoriting Drama at the city fair:

The butcher cries out full of hate:
"my daughter didn't came home tonight
that man's singing her name on the street
of course he has raped her"
He gets his poniard and stabs the busker through and through
The people mumble: such a crook
And in the distance a choir sounds:

"Victoria, Victoria! with your rainbow eyes
Victoria, Victoria! comes and I wait and I wait

Just setting up - be with you in about five minutes :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:50pm
Jan Turkenburg:

:-) hi Georgy! Just finished the pre-flight check myself.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:50pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Yay! Looking forward to today's show :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:54pm
Jan Turkenburg:

Only 1 Christmas song at the end and furthermore it won't be an average show. Except for the x-mas-song it's all Dutch language and rather flower powery.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:55pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Flowery powery is my middle name ;-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:55pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Over the last three days I have read nearly nine books and have almost finished the Elton John autobiography on Audible. It's been calm, and blissful :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:57pm
Jan Turkenburg:

Wow, three books a day???
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:58pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

I've been so illiterate for months ...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:58pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Just me, in my pyjamas, in the armchair with a constant supply of tea over the last three days :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:59pm
Jan Turkenburg:

:-) good for you!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:59pm
Jan Turkenburg:

okay, countdown has started!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:00pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Who's that strange woman? ;-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:01pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

And right in with Focus :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:02pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

All together now ...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:02pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Hello Radio Focus people! :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:02pm
Jan Turkenburg:

Focussing seems to e the trouble for me at this moment, LOL!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:03pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Just have a good, loud yodel - that'll sort you out ;-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:04pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Are there many people there today?
Avatar 1:05pm
Alina Brennaman:

Hiiiiii
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:05pm

No, there's no one there today.

DJ GeorgyGirl:

Who needs the birth of Christ when you've got the Power of Sheena? ;-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:06pm
Jan Turkenburg:

Willeke and I sang quite some song of Dorus as a duo.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:07pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Who is Dorus? Tell us a little bit about them :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:09pm
Jan Turkenburg:

Dorus was the tramp character in the pictures, by Tom Manders, He was a very popular figur in the early 60s
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:10pm
Jan Turkenburg:

He had his own shows on VARA (labour's broadcast society ) He was from Rotterdam
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:10pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

There are certainly a lot of records! Did have a TV presence or was he more a stage artist?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:10pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Aha! :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:10pm
Jan Turkenburg:

He was really a TV personality
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:12pm
Jan Turkenburg:

I only realise now I haven;'t looked up the years of the releas. Spinvis by the way is a more recent pop-artist
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:12pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Oh wow - he has a block of flats named after him! That's wonderful :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:12pm
Jan Turkenburg:

This is from one of the cds that W and I liked to play when we were getting drunk ;)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:13pm
Jan Turkenburg:

'were' :-(
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:13pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

:-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:13pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:13pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

The happy face was for the drunk part ..
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:14pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Are there any videos of the two of you performing together?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:14pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

I don't think I've ever seen a picture of Willeke, you see.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:15pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

I'd love to see a picture of her :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:15pm
Jan Turkenburg:

There should be, but I never got my hand on one of them. You know you give people your card and they promise to sent photos or videos and they never do....
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:16pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Yep - been there. There are a ton of photos of my grandmother which my mother claims disappeared ... :-(
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:16pm
Jan Turkenburg:

The local TV in Leiden should have a video of use, now I think of it.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:16pm
Jan Turkenburg:

of us..
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:17pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Did she play the accordion? I think I found a picture
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:18pm
Jan Turkenburg:

Yes, that's from the times we played in Leiden
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:19pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

She's tiny! :-) What a lovely face :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:19pm
Jan Turkenburg:

This song was one of our favorite sing -or rather scream along songs.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:20pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Aha - see now you're in my musical key ;-) I can't sing but I can bellow/scream relatively in tune ;-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:21pm
Jan Turkenburg:

This btw is the same frontman as Gruppo Sportivo, Hans Vandenburg
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:21pm
Jan Turkenburg:

I told him that we loved to sing this song together
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:21pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

I did wonder why the voice sounded familiar - I'm learning! :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:22pm
Jan Turkenburg:

In one of his last songs he looks back at his life and sings "let all the lovers sing my song" I wonder....
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:24pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

I like to think that Rick has found Willeke, and he's made her one of his many and varied teas. They're sitting on top of a hill in comfy armchairs and hailing passing celebrities, shouting "Well, Jim Morrison! You may very well have been the lead singer of The Doors, darling, but our Jan and our Georgy are FABULOUS DJs, so think on!" :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:24pm
Jan Turkenburg:

hahahahahahaha
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:25pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

"Quiet everyone! Time for Sheena's Jungle Room! Do shut up Christopher Lee, there's a love!" :-)

Martinibomb:

I have guest DJs today so mopping floors/doing some cleaning almost done tho.... then I can chat more :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:27pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

My kitchen looks like a bomb's one off, I have a pile of laundry, and the hoovering needs doing, but today is my day off ;-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:27pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

*gone
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:28pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

I am also in my PJs and I am not the least bit apologetic about that ;-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:30pm
Jan Turkenburg:

and you shouldn't be. You're certainly not the only one.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:31pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

:-) Beauty and the Beast PJs from my in-laws. Because I am five. lol
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:31pm
Jan Turkenburg:

This melody in the beginning was our theme song we started and finished sets with :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:31pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

This music is glorious!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:32pm
Jan Turkenburg:

Can you imagine, this is written by the same guy that wrote "She was naked"? :-)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:33pm
Jan Turkenburg:

and was a Golden Earring Member for four years?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:33pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

The leap from Golden Earring IS a pretty big one!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:34pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

This is so pretty
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:36pm

Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:44pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

Because here's the thing, lovely listeners of Sheena and Radio Focus. As well as being extraordinarily talented both as a musician and as a DJ, Jan is quite simply one of the nicest people on the planet. :-)

Berry crustmus aka kounso:

Your selections give me a nice insight in to the herritage of dutch avant garde and freaky freaks but it always seems so "braaf"...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:47pm
Jan Turkenburg:

There were of course also lesser "braaf" songs. Keep following this show. Today I couldn;t play Groninger punk groups, not because it's Christmas, but it's also the anniversary of my wife;'s death ;-) Thank you for being here Berry.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:52pm
DJ GeorgyGirl:

I know that today was never going to be easy for you, but you've put together a beautiful and heartfelt show. Thank you for doing that. <3
