… Read Full Bio ↴Tee Set was a Dutch beat band from the town of Delft, The Netherlands.
Founded in 1965, Tee Set was initially leaning towards rhythm & blues, but their music gradually became more 'poppy' from 1969 onwards (some of the early fans would call it 'slick'). Tee Set seemed to have disappeared by 1979, but resurfaced in 1983 and in the following years regularly performed at 'back to the sixties' festivals.
Between 1966 and 1979 fourteen Tee Set singles reached the Top 20 of the Dutch charts. Their biggest hit in The Netherlands was She Likes Weeds, but its success (#1 in Holland in 1970) was easily eclipsed by the international triumph of Ma Belle Amie, which peaked at #5 in the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. In The Netherlands it was 'only' a #6 hit.
Tee Set was the earliest example of a 'Do It Yourself' attitude in Dutch music history: the band founded their own record label. All of their post-1967 releases were self-released on Tee Set Records, an unusual business model in the 1960s.
The band's line-up underwent many changes over the years. Frontman Peter Tetteroo (who died in 2002, aged 55) was the only permanent member.
The 1966 line-up that recorded the earliest hits fell apart in 1967: three band members (Hans van Eijck, Polle Eduard and English guitarist, Ray Fenwick) formed a new band, named After Tea. Tetteroo formed an entirely new Tee Set line-up. Hans van Eijck returned in 1969 and is the Tee Set member with the highest number of 'years in office' after Tetteroo.

Title A sunny day in Greece
Lyrictext
It was a sunny day in Greece
A day of laughter, full of peace
I took my girl down to the beach
So holding tight each other's hand
While we walked the golden sand
We went into the quiet sea
A clear blue wave moistered my knee
And testified that we were free
And that we're always seem to be
Seem to be
We two hear the sound of the sea
And see the lights of the sun
And feel that love is around
We two hear the sound of the sea
And see the lights of the sun
And feel that love is around
Lalala...
But as we stood there in the sea
Rememberin' how it used to be
For so much centuries ago
In times of Zeus and Aphrodite
We crossed our mind and start a flight
Into the days of all Greece gods
We land right in the sea of dreams
Surrounded by the kings and queens
A fairytale in history
History
We two hear the sound of the sea
And see the lights of the sun
And feel that love is around
We two hear the sound of the sea
And see the lights of the sun
And feel that love is around
Lalala...
They showed us how to fly away
From all the misery of today

But as we flew there through the time
We found a verse that didn't rhyme
Which has been written long ago
It says for all that we have seen
It is a pity, it was a dream
Open your eyes and you will see
The bitter world's reality
Reality
We two hear the sound of the sea
And see the lights of the sun
And feel that love is around
We two hear the sound of the sea
And see the lights of the sun
And feel that love is around
Lalala...
We two hear the sound of the sea
And see the lights of the sun
And feel that love is around
We two hear the sound of the sea
And see the lights of the sun
And feel that love is around
Lalala…
