About 2 Meter Sessions

“

I agree she is adorable. Short hair, no make up, sweet, innocent, etc., etc. But I don’t think she could sing worth a damn. Sorry. I know how bad all you guys wanted to f—— her. Oh yeah. But that does not make her a great singer. “Celtic yodel” my ass.

====================

The show started back in 1987 by radio presenter Jan Douwe Kroeske. On his popular national radio show he persuaded New-Zeeland band Crowded House to play a couple of songs. The response of the public was so great, that 2 Meter Sessions quickly became a household name. In 1993, the show made a successful transition to national television. From there the show became a national phenomenon, for over 10 years, with filmed sessions of new talent, breakthrough acts and arrived career artists. Almost a million of 2 Meter Sessions cd’s were sold in the Netherlands.

Over 30 years many well-known acts have visited the show; from James Taylor, Elliott Smith and David Crosby to Damien Jurado, Ben Howard and Josh Ritter, via Radiohead, Nirvana, Coldplay and Foo Fighters. Archive footage can regularly be seen in (theatrical) documentary movies, like “Mystify: Michael Hutchence” (with footage of our session with INXS, filmed in 1997), “Heaven Adores You” (with footage of our session with Elliott Smith, filmed in 1998) and “All I Can Say” (with footage of our session with Blind Melon, filmed in 1993).

Was these not video footage of “Linger”, “Sunday” or any of the other songs?

Jan Douwe Kroeske, de vrouwenhater van Nederland. Deze man moet toch altijd iets negatiefs te zeggen hebben als het een vrouw is. Zie de opnames van Dolores O'Riordan of die van Heather Nova of Hope Sandoval.
