Esmee Denters explains herself

I’ve already blogged once about Esmee Denters, the 18-year-old singer from the Netherlands with an amazing, soulful voice. Here’s an endearing video of Esmee explaining a little bit about herself. She seems very sweet — she wants to go into social work to help people and, though feeling awkward about talking about herself on video, made this video to respond to her fan emails. One thing I want to know: Do people really say “ya’ll” in the Netherlands?

    I guess that in the Netherlands those who learn english from Mary J. Blige do say “ya’ll”. LOL!

  2. KayBe says:

    Yeah her english sounds so native, it is hard to believe she is from the Netherlands.

  3. Katy says:

    Wow! Esmee America is Waiting for your Album!!! Keep up the good work!!

  4. EYE4Dance says:

    Hoi Esmee,

    Je hebt een goede stem! TOP. Doe je goed!
    Mocht je interesse hebben in een carriere in de muziekindustrie?
    Misschien kunnen wij je op weg helpen?

  5. Sonja says:

    Yeah, she does not sound like she is from the Netherlands. She sounds like she is from New York, with a little bit of Texas thrown in. Strange. Probably another lonelygirl15.

  6. wendy says:

    If you listen carefully you can hear her Dutch coming through but yeah her accent is american

  7. Hester says:

    Hi, as someone coming from the Netherlands I can tell you that it’s kinda like ddui says. We learn to speak English at school, but we’re also influenced by the tvshows and music that’s coming from you guys (the US I mean). So we just talk and sing like we hear American actors and singers talk and sing. It’s as simple as that. And very annoying to, because it means that words like ‘ya’ll’ and ‘it’s like’ and ‘you know’ and ‘o my god’ are also imitated. Well, you know, it’s like, it just happens. Anyway, check ya’ll later! 🙂

    Greetings from a proud dutchie (Esmee rocks!)

    Hey,

    Esmee, radio 3fm is looking for you! Can you call them?

    hey esmee! u r so talented i hope u make it big!

  10. Laura says:

    je hebt echt een goeie stem!
    heb je denk ik al 1000 keer gehoord.

  11. Laura says:

    Je was laatst ook op SBS6,
    je kan echt heel goed zingen.

    Ik heb al je filpmjes al bekeken en die van
    John Legend – Ordinary People vind ik het mooist.
    Dat zelf gemaakte liedje is ook leuk! =)

    (ik zing wel is mee met je video’s, maar mijn stem is
    niet zo goed als de jouwe! )

    Beatifull!

    En je hebt helemaal geen accent vind ik dan.

    Kiss Laura.

  12. Cherrique says:

    She’s amazing! I saw her on the Dutch television and she sounded great!
    A lot of Dutch people have this weird accent when they talk English, but she is great :D..

    She makes me proud of my country =)

    En Esmee, we horen vast nog wel wat van jou !!

    X.

  13. stacey says:

    dude isnt the netherlands from the movie peter pan? and she should join american idol.

  14. Ella says:

    I have to explain to you all, she does NOT have an American accent. Americans are not the first people to talk in that way and many many Dutch people sound just like her. I would know, I have been raised by my mothers family, who are all from Amsterdam.

  15. MrWigan says:

    Way to go Esmee, love your voice.
    Hope to hear some more of your own work in the future.

    Hahahaha, Stacey, The Netherlands a.k.a Holland is not to be confused with Neverland from Peter Pan. Also I don’t think it’s possible for a Dutch person to become an American Idol. Pay some more attention during your geography lessons, or check google earth….

  16. jacqueline says:

    1. i am dutch and i say ya’ll …..
    plus when she said esmee she really sounded dutch and when she was laughting she sounded dutch too.

  17. American in NL says:

    Hi Everyone,

    For all those who doubt her Dutchness…
    Esmee Denters was on Radio 3FM in the Netherlands last night.
    Yes she spoke Dutch and yes she sung live on request in the studio.

    I am an American living in the Netherlands and there are quite a number of people who speak English with an Americanish accent from TV and chatting to Americans etc.

    Goed gedaan meid!!!
    Go Esmee wishing you all the best!
    You go to the same school as me too! 🙂

    later,

  18. Geertje says:

    Hé Esmee,

    Long time no see!
    Naar we horen gaat het goed met je. Prachtig gezongen, maar dat kon je als kleintje al!!
    Veel liefs,
    Je oude nanny.

  19. kriiiza says:

    heyy esmee u hav a greatt voicee.. im from norway..living in another country.. i hope ill get to see you in europe some time. You should seriously go for it and become something big… u know that there are thousands of people that support you!!!!!

    besos

    *..kriza..*

  20. Fan says:

    Esmee,

    Your father is an english teacher. That explain everything. But anyway your voice is beautiful. I like your voice and you are also a good looking lady too. I hope to see you soon on tv again but with your own song. U are a R&B singer and we will hear a lot of u. Also in the States…..

  21. limelife says:

    Look, even I hear she’s from Holland (that is, the Netherlands, for all you pompous-fat-fried-chicken-ears-eggheads in HAmerica) 😀 and I’m from Belgium!..Which probably most of you think is a village next to Paris. Then again, most Flemish speaking Belgians (makes it more complicated huh? What bothers :D) who at least went to undergraduate school are at least fluent listeners := of Dutch, French, English, German and Spanish. That’s five languages, that is! SO, if you like sights, diversity, culture and like for the people to even understand what you are saying, visit Belgium!

    Anywho.. was a li’l off there..

    my point is 😀 the accent (which most of you don’t even notice) doesn’t matter, the way she sings does. I only know of her mere existence for about an hour and I already have a crush..

    So ya’ll in America should give her a waybill to the States or prepare for the next Dutch invasion ;D

    all my love and all my kisses to you, Esmee
    en nog één ding, meid, alsjeblieft: moest je’t maken in de wijde wereld, wees geen slet zoals Paris Hilton of an overdue Madonna die niet weet te stoppen op het hoogtepunt van haar carrière, maar blijf jezelf – ook al bereik je er maar één iemand mee in gans je leven.. herrinner je nog die leraar, wiens naam je vergeten zal maar wiens lessen je altijd bij zullen blijven.. muziek doet dat met mensen, maar dan duizend maal meer..

    de reden w’rom ik op je gevallen ben is niet voor je looks (maar die mogen er wel zijn), maar omdat ik met m’n ogen toe naar je aan het luisteren ben, en ik aan het genieten ben.. moet je mij ‘ns anders uitleggen waarom de Beatles zo’n succes hebben – ok, toen waren ze misschien hot – maar waarom spreken ze nu dan nog zoveel mensen aan? precies, omwille van de muziek, zusje!

  22. yeah she is from the netherlands. but what you american people may not know is that we get english lessons at our school. Videoclips from america are in the dutch charts too. It’s so weird that you people think the netherlands lives in communism and all that crap. were just a small country who live our lifes the same as yours.

    well, I i’m totally in love with Esmee’s talent and i think she will hit the charts internationaly one day.

    Greets,

    Girl! You are really talented.

  27. Anoniem says:

    Mijn Nederlands is verschrikkelijk, weet ik, maar misschien u zou naar Texas kunnen komen. En u zou kunnen veinzen u bent Nena. Zij (Texaan) schijnen alsof u… Ik leef niet noch doe ik wil leven in Texas, maar ik ben rechtvaardig slechts voorstellen

    Ik mijn mening, Esmee, hebt u een heel goede stem.

    Goed tot ziens

  28. Sanne says:

    sorry hoor, maar Nederland is wel bekend hoor lieve schat.. en doe niet zo proffesioneel, neem eerst zanglessen en breek es door! 🙂

  29. sky says:

    i swear i’d buy her album as soon as it came out! i love her voice. someone please find her an agent that truly believes in her and doesn’t only have $$ in their eyes.

  30. oscar says:

    you seem shy, but real. that’s so unique. your singing is original, wonderful without edits. please dont let people and agents take it away from you. to people who been force fed crap like britney spears, christina aguilera, etc, you are the one we have been waiting for. thanks for sharing you talent. wish you all the best.

  31. Frederique says:

    Hey Esmee,

    Wow, je zingt echt heel erg goed! Ben je niet van plan om daar wat meer mee te doen?? 😉 Hey, je wilt toch mensen helpen? Dan zou je zelfs shows kunnen houden als fundraisers! Ok, maar ik ga nu een beetje ver… 😛
    Ik hou zelf ook heel erg van zingen en zit ook sinds kort in de ‘schoolband’ (van onze school), stelt tot nu toe nog niets voor, maar goed 😉 Hahahaha. Sinds ik jou heb horen zingen begin ik trouwens wel een beetje over mezelf te twijfelen, haha. Ach ja, zingen is gewoon leuk :). Ik ben wel Nederlands (zoals je waarschijnlijk al gemerkt had;)) maar woon op Curacao, ik weet niet of je daar ooit van gehoord hebt (het ligt in de Nederlandse Antillen). Maar aangezien het hier zo klein is zijn er ook weinig mogelijkheden om wat ‘verder’ te komen met zang, dans etc. Ik dans ook, ik zit sinds begin 2006 in het Antillean Dance Theatre. Jij danst toch ook?
    Je bent nu al een beetje bekend 😉 wow. Je bent ook op de redio geweest, hoorde it? Hoe doe je dat allemaal?? :p Leuk dat je dit doet hoor :).
    Keep it up!

  32. Jorge Navia says:

    well, i would like to satrt saying that i realle admire you. The first time i saw you i said wow that is a beautifil voice, she is really singing or it is just an imitation. Welll, then i saw some other videos i get convinced you were exceptional, awesome.
    You know, that is a passion that we have in common. I also like painting and almost everything related with art.
    I would like to meet you, and know about you deeper. I am from colombia, and i would really apreciate a response to my reply.

  33. You have such a wonderful voice and I really enjoy listening to your music. You should definetly pursue singing. You should also tryout for American Idol. I would vote for you!!! Keep singing!!!!

  34. Louis Otero says:

    There is not a doubt in my mind that you would be the next greatest hit, and eventually greatest album. If JoJo can get away with her talents, u’ll become a diva! Hope you get signed up fast!

    Hey Esmée,

    Just wanted to let you know that you have a fan on the west coast of the USA! I can already tell like many who commented before me that you are capable of so many things from your talents alone. As for the Netherlands, I think that it’s a wonderful place and everyone is quite nice – except for the bikers in Amsterdam! I hope to hear more from you on YouTube and hopefully on CD in the future! Bridge the Atlantic for us! =)

    Best of luck!

    Greetings from the southern state of north carolina in the USA…and yes we definitely say “yall” in the south. LOL Its weird to hear her say it but i’m not surprised, just shows the American culture’s influence. Anywho, i have to say Esmee thanks for opening up a little more about yourself. Dont let anyone take ur sincererity and genuineness away from you. You are a talented young lady and whatever you decide to with your future, I know you will be blessed. I first heard you sing one of American Idol winner Fantasia’s songs. She is from the same hometown that I live in!

    peace and blessings

  38. Esmee rocks says:

    I just wanna say Esmee you are really awesome, you have a beautiful voice, personality, style and you have beautiful looks I have to admit. To the people who said you should try out for American Idol, I would agree except you are from the Netherlands so I dont think it’ll be possible. Anyways I cant wait until you get signed cause with such a great talent right here who could resist making you into a big star? You’d be a hit in America^^

    Hi Esmee, I´m from Brazil.
    I watched your videos, you have the voice of an angel and you are damn beautiful.
    If you can, send me an e-mail, then we could talk.
    Kisses!

  62. André says:

    Oh, and I´m addicted to egyptian art too!

  63. Celeste Joye says:

    Esmee, your voice is angelic. I am hooked from just a few minutes of hearing your singing voice. The ONLY thing I would request is that you practice looking into the camera and making eye contact while you’re singing. Your eyes are simply gorgeous and this added dimension would only enhance your effect on your listening audience even more. We love your eyes. Just trying to “complete” the perfect picture that you present.

  64. heartlover says:

    hi girl. first i have to say that i dont can write good inglish, because i m from albanian.
    If i saw the video, i was so fascinated about your voice. I dont cant belive it, that your arent famous. What i want to say it, that you are a great girl and you have anythint, that i like on you and i wish you i good day i pleace sing the song “unbreak my heart” from Toni Braxton. tung

  70. Stib says:

    I’m originally from the Netherlands and am working in Ireland right now and people here always think that I’m from the States so that’s just ‘our Dutch’ accent when we speak English 😉

    And as many I’ve seen her on Dutch telly and heard her on Dutch radio in Dutch so yeah, she’s Dutch, she’s wonderful and got me addicted to her voice in no time! 😀

  71. Rudy says:

    I think you’re a real talent, and we’re all lucky enough to witness the genesis of a star, I definenately think you should be working in the industry. good luck girl…….. dream BIG!

  73. Kevin says:

    Esmee

    Na je gezien te hebben op TV moest ik ook maar eens je filmpjes bekijken op Youtube en het is niet overdreven je bent werkelijk top.
    Leef je droom zoals jij wil en volg je intuïti. Ik hoop werkelijk dat je het gaat maken maar die beslissing is aan jou.

    English: After I saw you on TV I had to see you on Youtube and watch all your videos, it really wasn’t overdone what the said about you and your own written song is also really nice.
    The next thing I want to say is, live your own dream and mostly follow your intuition. I really hope and believe you’re going to make it. But that decision is up to you!
    There are enough people who believe in you.

    Esmee zet hem op en we zullen snel meer van je zien.
    Esmee good luck and we will see more of you soon.

    Greets Kevin (The Netherlands / Holland)

    Besides in the Netherland we all learn English at school (British English) but as the other Dutch said, we watch TV with subtitle and so we hear mostly the American accent. I suppose that’s normal in all of Europe except for Germany. The internet we use is a lot more useful if we use it in English, because there is more information in English. We start learning the English language in The Netherlands since our 9th year of birth.

  76. Dagon says:

    UNSPEAKABLE annoying style of music. Whining like a drunken jakhal, a searingly, droningly sound. I’d want to choke her with her own hair. Gods, I can’t wait untill that hysterical R&B dies and we are liberated from it.

  77. aranka says:

    Esmee, fantastisch, ga door! Je hebt een geweldige stem en manier van zingen. Ik vind het heel leuk dat sommige mensen willen dat hun favoriete song door jou gezongen wordt. Wat een compliment. Succes Esmee

  78. jimm says:

    Je hebt een mooie stem je bent zelfs beter dan byoncee nou dit was het dann doeiii(K

  79. Frank says:

    Hi Esme,

    You have a great voice , but that you’ll have already heard for thousands of times.
    I just have one request and that’s please stay yourself, don’t let the music change the way you am . If you get so fas famous then you change and everyone wants to meet you and find you great . But people forget your also just a peron like any other. Everybody is equal and so are you .Woul be nice if you could be the first uprusing pop star who is really herself.
    Why are u going to sing R&B? you have a great voice for ballads like numbers from Chris de Burgh or songs from Eric Clapton etc. With that kind of songs you really reach people in their hearts. Money doesn’t make you happy never forget that , people like you because of who you really are.

    Greetzzzzz and lotz of succes!!!!

    Frank / Netherlands/ Hendrik Ido Ambacht

  90. Johan Sterk says:

    I’m 60…. but, watching you beauty and listening to your amazingly soulful voice makes an old man wish for younger days!!!

  91. Val says:

    Ever heard of New Amsterdam hehehe that explains it all haha… ;o)
    Esmee je bent een ware topper!!! I’m a huge fan of yours, your voice runs a shiver down my spine! Awesome! And those saying that all Dutch speak with an American accent…I dunno about that though…but indeed the fact of the matter is that English is taught as a second language (next to French/German/Spanish) Frankly, I think Esmee’s English skills are above average compared to others her age. You rock girl!
    xXx
    (ik heb je ook bericht via Hyves gestuurd hihi…cheers)

    Hey Esmee, ik zag een paar dagen geleden een filmpje van jou op youtube en ik moet zeggen, je stem is echt geweldig 🙂
    wat ik niet snap, kom je nou uit Oosterbeek of Arnhem?
    waar je geboren bent dan.
    de ene keer hoor ik je Oosterbeek zeggen en de andere keer Arnhem.
    Wel raar dat ik je niet ken dan, kom ook uit Arnhem maar zie altijd dezelfde mensen.
    nou heel veel succes met het zingen verder en ik vind het echt knap van je dat je dit al bereikt hebt.
    Keep up the good work 😉
    Kusje.

  98. kittykatgurl says:

    hey esmee your voice is soo great i love your videos they’re are so good

  99. asder says:

    you guys are funny.. DUTCH ACCENT? lol
    this is clearly an American accent, even if shes from Holland.
    she speaks like that as many other people from europe, and this is just because of the influence from tv, movies, tv shows and stuff like that.
    besides this, its so easier to adopt an american accent rather than a british one. so what?
    she knows english, she’s got an accent, but this is no Dutch english. its just an european girl having a nice American accent.

  100. jemada says:

    I heard esmee first on youtube and had no idea that she was ducth.To me she has no accent its amazing.and how did she get such a big and explisive vocabulary in english.None the less she is soo good and i think it would be soo cool if she made it big!
    Go esmee!

    Esmee,
    I’ve just learned of you today….surfing the web…I ran across some of your stuff. You have an beautiful voice…and you seem like such a sincere person. I wish you the best in your future endeavors! I am from the states and I hate it how people say that you sound “American” and they don’t believe that you are from the Netherlands….how dare them! You be proud of where you are from and keep representing the Netherlands! Yes, there is beauty, talent and success outside of the U.S.!!!

  108. Ahmed says:

    And about the obsession of Egypt, I’m an Egyptian myself .. Yes! you do have fan(s) from Egypt .. and i think I’m your first fan in all of Egypt or among Egyptians!. =P

    Best wishes from me to you =)

  112. Eline says:

    Hahahah een chick zonder persoonlijkheid die graag mensen helpt met hun problemen.. meisje, help jezelf eerst maar van dat neppe accent af en word een beetje wereldwijs

  113. ElizabethUSA says:

    I know there are so many people who say that you are amazing. It is because you are. You have an amazing gift, and you have already shared it with the world! What you have ALREADY achieved is enough for a lifetime, I can’t even fathom the billions of lives you will touch, and what is still to come! It is so much more then just hitting notes beautifully, it is connecting with people all around the world and actually touching them somehow, your voice is your soul, and both are amazing….

  114. Al says:

    Yup, it’s a fake american accent influenced by MTV, the hints of southernism isn’t from the south per se, but from negros, who in turn came from the south. I say fake not because I’m slagging her off, but you can hear it slipping here and there, like her pronunciation of viewers(fewers). I have no idea whether that has a relation to Dutch at all, but sometimes when you’re doing an accent, you slip into something you wouldn’t say even in your natural accent, something altogether different.

  115. Brianna Reyes says:

    Hi Esmee,

    Not to be braggy or anything all my friends and family say i have a beautiful voice as well. You truly are my idol because, every day i go on you tube and i look up you singing, and i see how amazing and confident you are, when it comes to singing… it would be an honor to meet you and get singing lessons or something, but no stocker, so email would be fine…lol…..hope to see and hear more of you!!!!

    #1 fan,

    Brianna Lila Reyes ❤
