Bobbejaan & Geike



Bobbejaan Schoepen is the Roy Rogers of the Lowlands. He has his own themepark, recorded a shitload of albums. made movies and at 83 he beat cancer and aneurysms in the brain. What a guy. This song is from his new album, that also features a duet with Axelle Red. Geike Arnaert's dayjob is singing with Hooverphonic.

UPDATE
The son and manager of Bobbejaan asked me kindly to remove the mp3s.

  2. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!
    Hail Geike, hail Bobbejaan, it even doesn't matter that the track runs over half an hour ;-)

    By the way, I'm looking for a movie with Bobbejaan for quite a while, if there's someone out there who knows how to get it, let me know.
