5.0 out of 5 stars The best pop voice in Europe, October 8, 2001

Being a cross between Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey, Trijntje has the voice as well as the soul. She comes from a group in the Netherlands call 'Total Touch'. Unfortunately, this is her only import into America of 3 albums of which I know, but what a brilliant export. She brings great power to these timeless Stevie Wonder tracks. Enjoy!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Going Dutch with Wonder Trijntje, January 12, 2001

What a voice, that Dutch Trijntje Oosterhuis, and what splendid (Dutch) musicians accompany her (great drums/bass, great sax/trumpet, great backing voice, etc.) I can say this is a fine collection of & tribute to Stevie Wonder songs. In the old days I bought at least 6 LP's of Stevie. Just collecting them again on CD and bumped into this Trijntje... and my-oh-my.... really: As good, on occassions even better, than the original (sorry Sevie !). Splendid new arrangements and small funky/funny musical tricks ! I just ordered this CD, after hearing it at friends, and DO want my own. Strange to say, that I have to order this (import) CD in the USA (living in holland myself): hard to get over here, so I tried the good old Amazon, smile .

Trijntje Oosterhuis proves with cd again that she the best singer of the world. On this album she sings the songs of stevie wonder. Trijntje has sang some songs even better that Stevie did years ago. On this album she shows how much Trijntje can do with her great voise. Al the tracks are a pleasure to listen to. They really entertain you. I know it for sure, we will hear more from her!
