The singles ‘If You Can Ever Return’ [Als je ooit nog eens terug kan] is a number one on the latest Dutch Single Top 100. It is also number one in the iTunes download in the Netherlands. It is a song dedicated to the Tibetan people by a group of top Dutch artists in collaboration with Tibetan singer Loten Namling from Switzerland. On Sunday 20th April the biggest Tibet-related concert ever held in the Netherlands took place in Amsterdam with 10, 000 visitors who enjoyed the day of warm sun shine, multi cultural shows, political debates of all Party Representatives and great music from some of the biggest bands here. The highlight of the evening was live performances of current top singles by Peter Slager (Bløf), Anneke van Giersbergen (Agua de Annique), Bas Kennis (Bløf), Loten Namling, Bart van der Weide (Racoon), JW Roy, Dennis van Leeuwen (Kane), Jeroen Goossens (JW Roy) en Gerard. The song ‘If you can ever return’ is about returning to one’s own land. It is a beautiful pop song with a lot of emotions and a clear message of the wishes of an exiled people.
