His first big hit was Eenzame Kerst ("Lonely Christmas"). In 1979 he signed a contract with EMI, and soon after that his career started to take off. Een Vriend ("A Friend") and Een Beetje Verliefd ("A Little Bit In Love)" were both top ten hits of his.
On september 23, 2004 André Hazes was struck by a cardiac arrest which resulted in his death. Four days later a ceremony was held in the Amsterdam Arena where ten thousands of fans paid respect to one of the most popular Dutch singers of the late 20th century. The next day his last single Zij gelooft in mij ("She believes in me") became number one in the Dutch charts.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Per la vita la mia vita ti darò
Sembra un sogno rivederti, accarezzarti
Le tue mani fra le mani stringere ancor
Il mio mondo, tutto il mondo
Sei per me, a nessuno
Voglio bene come a te
Ogni giorno, ogni istante, dolcemente ti dirò
Il mio mondo, tutto il mondo sei per me
A nessuno voglio bene come a te
Ogni giorno, ogni istante, dolcemente ti dirò
Come prima, più di prima t′amerò
Il mio mondo, tutto il mondo sei per me
A nessuno voglio bene come a te
Ogni giorno, ogni istante, dolcemente ti dirò
Come prima, più di prima t'amerò
Come prima, più di prima t'amerò
Come prima, più di prima t′amerò
André Hazes's song "Come Prima" is a beautiful love ballad which expresses the intensity of the singer's feelings towards his lover. The song starts with the line "Come prima, più di prima t'amerò" which translates as "like before, more than before, I will love you". The phrase "come prima" refers to the idea that the singer's love is unchanging and everlasting; it is a love that will continue "like before" and always "more than before". He goes on to say "per la vita la mia vita ti darò" which means "for my life I will give you my life". This emphasizes the depth of his love, as he is willing to give up his own life for the woman he loves.
In the next verse, the singer describes the joy he feels at being reunited with his lover, saying "sembra un sogno rivederti, accarezzarti" which means "it seems like a dream to see you again, to caress you". He goes on to express his desire to hold her hands, saying "le tue mani fra le mani stringere ancor". This image suggests a strong physical connection and intimacy between the couple. The rest of the song repeats the message that the singer's lover is everything to him and he will always love her more than anyone else.
Overall, "Come Prima" is a romantic and heartfelt expression of love, with simple yet powerful lyrics that capture the intensity of the singer's emotions.
