Already in his youth, Frans Bauer wanted to become a singer after he was inspired by Julio Iglesias, Elvis Presley and Koos Alberts (a Dutch singer). Bauer's own singing career started in 1987 when he recorded his first single, "Ben Je Jong" (Are You Young), under supervision of Dutch producers Rudi Schreijenberg and Emile Hartkamp.
In January 1992 he met his later wife-to-be, Mariska van Rossenberg. He was a local celebrity before rising to national fame due to the national television show "All You Need Is love" in early 1992, where he was to choose two female fans for a date. In 1994 he had his first national hit with "Als Sterren Aan De Hemel Staan". In 1997 he conquered Germany with his album "Weil Ich Dich Liebe".
Frans Bauer's fame kept growing to the point where he had his own reality show called "De Bauers", in which his daily life, including his family life, was followed. Bauer has also designed clothing for the Vroom & Dreesmann retail chain, based in The Netherlands.
He has won several awards and honours in The Netherlands, including a knighthood ("Ridder in de Orde van Oranje-Nassau") due to his charitable work and the "Gouden Televizier-Ring" for the reality show that has been running on Dutch television the year previously.
In 2006 he was struck by an infection on his vocal cords. He recovered after surgery.

Jij bent alles alles in mijn leven
Al jouw woorden sluit ik in mijn hart
Dat wat ik wil horen heb jij mij gebracht
Elke roos is voor jou
Het vertelt ‘k hou van jou
Heel mijn leven zal ik gevenElke roos is voor jou
Waar ik heenga jij bent bij me
Wat moet ik nu zonder jou beginnen
Heel mijn leven kende geen verdriet
Ook al zit het tegen tranen helpen niet
Ik wil met jou over grote wereldzeeën
Samen met z’n tweeën elke zware storm doorstaan
Denkend aan de woorden die je mij nu al zo vele malen hebt gezegd hebt gezegd
Ik wil met jou over grote wereldzeeën
Samen met z’n tweeën elke zware storm doorstaan
Denkend aan de woorden die je mij nu al zo vele malen hebt gezegd hebt gezegd
Ik wil met jou over grote wereldzeeën
Samen met z’n tweeën elke zware storm doorstaan
Denkend aan de woorden die je mij nu al zo vele malen hebt gezegd hebt gezegd
The lyrics of "Elke roos" by Frans Bauer and Marianne Weber express deep feelings of love and devotion. The first verse talks about how a thousand words could express that the person being sung to is everything in the singer's life. The words spoken by the loved one are cherished and kept close to the heart, as they bring the comfort and joy that the singer desires to hear. The idea is that the love shared is precious and meaningful, and the singer is grateful for the love and support received.
The chorus reinforces the theme of love and devotion, with the repetition of "Elke roos is voor jou" (Every rose is for you). This symbolizes the act of giving love and affection to the beloved person, expressing that the singer's love is unwavering and constant. The commitment to giving one's whole life and heart to the loved one is emphasized in these lines, showing a deep level of dedication and passion in the relationship.
The verses that follow delve deeper into the idea of being together through thick and thin. The singer acknowledges the presence of their loved one in every aspect of their life, feeling lost without them. Despite any hardships or challenges faced, the singer finds solace in the love shared, believing that tears do not solve anything when things get tough. The desire to navigate through life's difficulties together and support each other is highlighted, showing a strong bond and unity between the couple.
The repetition of the lines "Ik wil met jou over grote wereldzeeën, Samen met z'n tweeën elke zware storm doorstaan" (I want to sail with you over great oceans, Together we'll endure every heavy storm) reinforces the idea of facing life's challenges together as a team. The longing to overcome obstacles hand in hand and the comfort found in the shared memories and words spoken in the past further solidify the commitment and love shared between the singers. The lyrics paint a picture of a deep and enduring love that transcends hardships and stands the test of time, with the promise of continued support and devotion in the face of adversity.
