Geef het op - Clouseau

After having conquered the charts in Belgium and the Netherlands, the Belgian band Clouseau tried to launch their career in the rest of Europe with an appearance in the 1991 Eurovision Song Contest. The Netherlands were not participating, so both Belgium and the Netherlands were of course hoping for a good result for the group.

'Geef het op' was a dynamic song, performed with conviction in Italy, where the show was hosted, but unfortunately the result was disappointing: they finished 16th in a field of 22 competitors. They did, however, end up with another hit in the Netherlands: the single reached number 17 in the Dutch Top 40.

My collection: 7" single no. 1506
Found: Free Record Shop, Den Haag, August 10, 1991
Cost: 6 guilders
Tracks: 'Geef het op' / 'Geef het op (instrumentale versie)'
