American girl

25/11/2017 by Nikita

This girl is a super sweet cool girl. Camille is an American girl married to a South African and she sings Afrikaans!Β  Her pronunciation and accent is far better than some Afrikaans born South Africans. She’s very much like a typical South African ‘farm’ girl and therefore, double super! By that I mean, she seems to be a down to earth and modest person without any fuss and hang-ups. She needs to sing more Afrikaans!

      I hoped you had a very Blessed Christmas and I wish you and your family a very special 2018, Nikita. Ek het intussen ‘n ‘fan’ geword van Camille van Niekerk en haar liedjies. Baie dankie dat jy haar aan ons lesers bekend gestel het, want anders sou ons dalk nooit van haar te hore gekom het nie.

      Dankie, Clive. Ek’s bly jy hou van haar, ek is ook nou een van haar ‘fans’ πŸ™‚ Ek hoop jy en jou familie word ook Geseen met voorspoed vir 2018.

    I, too, sing Afrikaaans. In the shower.
    (And I even recited once a poem on Radio Sonder Grense).

      πŸ™‚ Have you got a copy of the recited poem? (mp3)

    Absoluut wonderlik!!! Wat ‘n bekoorlike stem!!! Die liedjie pas by haar stem en ek kan elke woord duidelik hoor. Ek hoop sy sing nog baie Afrikaanse liedjies vir ons!!!

      Dankie, Clive. Jy’s reg!

    Dankie Nikita,
    Vir jou mooi wense.

      Dankie! Het jy die liedjie geluister?
      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDfSp1i4dzo So mooi stem!


    • on 31/12/2017 at 22:31 clivelenagmailcom

      Ja dankie Nikita,
      Ek het al vier haar liedjies afgesonder vir my plesier. Dit is Songvanger, Stille Nag, Kinders van die Wind, Liza se Klavier. En dat sy sommer in Afrikaans nogal, vir ons vra vir nog voorstelle van Afrikaanse liedjies.!!! As ek haar adres geken het of e-pos dan kon ek dalk ‘n paar voorstelle aangestuur het. Want so ‘n stem moet ‘n mens koester want ons ou volkie en sy mooi taal moet met sorg aangemoedig word. Of wat dink jy?


    • on 31/12/2017 at 23:14 Nikita

      Ek stem. Jy kan op youtube die voorstelle vir haar los. Daar is baie wat voorstelle daar vir haar gelos het.
