A band I found back in my archives, looking through them, was Tjens Counter and TC Matic, both with front man Arno. Who later started solo and became a legend in Frenchspeaking countries countries. Although he was Flemish a made a lot of French songs. From 'Belgian Pop & Rock Archives:The passage across the boundaries becomes a fact (they tour all around Europe and play Pinkpop, Roskilde, France, Germany ...) but never becomes a huge success. Only in Scandinavia the group develops a following, much to the delight of Arno : "the ladies over there are wild! They go after the men just like the men in Rome go after the women." Even a third and fourth album can't change that. Herman Schueremans (the organizer of Torhout/Werchter) in an interview with Het Laatste Nieuws in 1984 : "the Belgian branch of EMI has 100 percent faith in the group. They invest a lot in them. Unfortunately, they don't seem to get that message through to the international headquarters. When TC.Matic began in Belgium they said "there will be no audience for that kind of music". The group has made that audience. Then came Holland. The first time they shouted "stupid Belgian", but the next time they were silenced by the music. In Scandinavia the same thing happens. The weird thing is that this group can really move things around, but that the record company does so little with it."

How many time I danced on this song, I don't know anymore  One of my all time favorites, Lou Reed. A song from his bestseller album 'Transformer'
