In the early Seventies, the band switched to hard rock and had its first successes, including a brace of Top 40 hits. After original singer Veerman left and drummer Keizer took his place behind the microphone, the band made a musical U-turn and opted for commercial radio pop, adding female co-vocalist Annie Schilder and laying the foundation for their status as the most popular Dutch band ever (in terms of hit singles and albums). BZN has had over 50 hits in the Dutch hit parade to date.
BZN's claim to fame started with the song "Mon Amour" (1976), which held the #1 hit parade ranking for over 5 weeks. Outside of the Netherlands the band has had some success as well, amongst which several hits in South Africa (such as "Yeppa" in 1990) and minor successes with their French-language songs in Canada.
Through the years there have been many lineup changes, the most important of which have been the departure of Schilder in 1984 (replaced by Carola Smit) and in 1988 of the brothers Cees and Thomas Tol (keyboards), who until then had been responsible for most of the music and lyrics. The band remained nevertheless successful, making their last major change in strategy when they decided to write in Dutch instead of English as of 2003.
BZN are also responsible for the initial success of singer Jan Smit (singer), who was discovered by BZN at the age of 10 and went on to have pop and schlager successes in The Netherlands, Germany and Belgium.
On February 15 2006, BZN announced they would do one final tour and then call it quits. This goodbye tour is scheduled to last until June 2007.
Every Day I Have To Cry
BZN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This was my love, I didn't wanna share it
I thought this love would make my life bright and sunny
But she said she couldn't love me 'cause I didn't have no money
Every day I have to cry some
Every day I have to cry some
Dry the water from my eyes some
I had me a girl, I guess I really loved her
Every night, I would thinking of her
But she gave me a love with money
'Cause when you do it's gonna hurt somebody
Every day I have to cry some
Every day I have to cry some
Dry the water from my eyes some
Every day I have to cry
Lord, I know, that I'm just a poor man
But is it wrong to love, 'cause I'm not a rich man
Every time you make her love with money
And every time it's gonna hurt somebody
Every day I have to cry some
Every day I have to cry some
Dry the water from my eyes some
Every day I have to cry
Every day I have to cry some
Every day I have to cry some
Dry the water from my eyes some
Every day I have to cry
Every day I have to cry some
Every day I have to cry
some
Dry the water from my eyes some
Every day I have to cry
The song "Every Day I Have To Cry" by BZN is a poignant tale of unrequited love. The singer had fallen in love with a girl who he had planned to marry and believed that love would make his life bright and sunny. However, his love was not reciprocated because he did not have any money. The girl he had fallen in love with placed a high value on money and refused to return his affections because of his lack of wealth.
The singer is heartbroken and every day he cries because he loves the girl but knows that she will never return his affections. He sings about how every time you make someone love with money, it's going to hurt somebody. The singer knows that he is poor, but it is not wrong to love because he is not a rich man.
The song is a poignant reflection on the nature of love and how our society often values wealth over love. The lyrics suggest that when we prioritize money over love, we hurt ourselves and those around us. It's a lesson that many people can relate to, as love and money are often conflicting forces in our lives.
