Conny Stuart (1913-2010), stage name of Cornelia van Meijgaard, was a Dutch singer, actress and comedian. She performed with the famous cabaret artist Wim Sonneveld. She played leading roles in Dutch musicals like Not honesty but enjoyable is the best policy /Heerlijk duurt het langst (1965); Now off to bed/En nu naar bed (1971); and The perpetrator did it/De dader heeft het gedaan (1983).

These were all, like above song, written by Annie M.G. Schmidt and Harry Bannink. Above song she sang in the Conny Stuart Show in 1966. In 1985, 72 years old, she made a last show, De Stuart Story, in which she sang old songs.

The city The Hague (province South-Holland) is the government residence of the Netherlands. The lyrics mentions several streets and squares in The Hague (like the historic lane Voorhout, shopping street the Poten and the filled up canal the Spui).

The Buitenhof ('outer court') is a square next to the House of Parliament. Louis Couperus (1863-1923) is a famous writer from The Hague. He is honoured with a statue of his most famous main character, Eline Vere. He also wrote about the Dutch East Indies (explaining the mentioned 'satay').

Annie M.G. Schmidt (1911-1995) was one of the most beloved text writers of the Netherlands. She wrote children's books and poetry, poetry for adults, songs, plays and musicals. She is known for her humor and talent for seemingly easy rhyming.

Other songs written by her, also translated and included on this website, are: 'Marjolijne' (1956), 'But most, most of all' (1959), 'At a lovely Whitsunday' (1965), 'My granddad' (1967) and 'In a carriage' (1968).

Harry Bannink (1929-1999) was a Dutch composer and pianist. He wrote the music for over 3000 songs, for many artists (like Wim Sonneveld and Wieteke van Dort), songs and musicals written by Annie M.G. Schmidt, theatre shows, radio- and tv-shows, and radio- and tv-shows for children. He is widely considered the best composer for cabaret, television shows and stage songs.
