Song: My Amsterdam
The song Mijn Amsterdam (‘My Amsterdam’), part of Initiative TV, is a tribute to all initiators and volunteers who support and care for their fellow residents of Amsterdam. Songwriter and composer Leonie van der Klein sings about ‘her’ Amsterdam, which has suddenly become so empty and quiet. In approximate translation:
When I stroll through the streets
I come past the empty square
In a city where I live
but no one now ventures out
I walk through every alley and street
Taking slow steps
Along the water in the canals
That never were this quiet
You can listen to Mijn Amsterdam on Spotify, Apple Music, Google Play Music etc.
