Perfecte wimpers, gebalde vuist,

Ik wist dat ik me op 8 maart

A trip down memory lane with Kizzy's music video 'Pia di Galiña'
28 / 01 / 2017
See Kizzy's 'Pia di Galiña' music video of the Lamu Lamu album with Clifton End and Paul Welvaart back in the day. Kizzy wrote the lyrics to the comical hit song recorded on the island of Curaçao.
"Let's tell the people we love that we appreciate them while they are still alive - instead of singing their praises when they're gone."
Kizzy compares it with an amusing view on how we treat chicken: "They're never pampered or even given names, and after they die, we suddenly love them, giving them names like: 'Hotwing', 'Extra Crispy', 'Stoba', 'Nuget' etc. It's sad and scandalous." - KIZZY
