A long, long time ago...
I can still remember
How that music used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And, maybe, they'd be happy for a while.

But february made me shiver
With every paper I'd deliver.
Bad news on the doorstep;
I couldn't take one more step.

Simple Man - Cuby & the Blizzards

Talking about the most famous bands in the Dutch music history, a living legend when it comes to ‘Nederblues’ Cuby & the Blizzards is one of the best. Still exist even more than 40 years and still don't want to quit. Hate crowded but countenance and tranqullity, on the other hand Life is Today is their philosophy. " I’ll always remain the same person." I am just the same guy that I used to be when I was young. I am only a bit older now"  that's what Harry Muskee one of the former said in some interview. Very simple person and still becomes Simple Man.

I was born to be simple man
Just to sing a simple song
But somebody came
Came and cross my life
I didn’t know what I’ve done wrong

But the crowd called out for more. 
The room was humming harder, 
As the ceiling flew away. 
When we called out for another drink, 
The waiter brought a tray.
