Close encounters - Clouseau

The Belgian group Clouseau had a big hit in Belgium and the Netherlands with 'Daar gaat ze' (literally: 'There she goes') in 1990. A year later, they represented Belgium with the song 'Geef het op', while also recording an entire album in English. Their international career was never that big, but it did result in some very nice singles.

'Close encounters' is an English version of 'Daar gaat ze' with different lyrics written by Jan Savenberg from the band, who also wrote the original version. It was taken from the album of the same name, which was released all over Europe.
