Position 40 is Belgium 2006 – we have it by Kate Ryan in both English and French and then a cover of Christoff de Bolle in Flemish. There are two Afrikaans covers – DOMENIC and SHINE 4 but cannot find them on Youtube.

This song is a favourite of many fans so it is probably in the top 100 of many compilations.
93 – Je t’adore – Kate Ryan (Belgium 2006)
Not sure how many people know Christoff de Bolle from Belgium? I regard him as one of the top 5 male singers in the world. He started at the age of 17 or so in the Belgium selection – cannot even recall the name of the song. he then tried again some years later – again without success. But from 2005 onwards, his career just blossomed and he is probably one of the best Belgium male singers. He has recorded in Flemish (of course) but also German and even Afrikaans. Some of his top hits have been COVERS.
His 4 best ones are
MILJIONAIR – originally done by DIE FLIPPERS of Germany
ZEVEN ZONDEN – originally done by UWE BUSSE of Germany and huge covers in Afrikaans by among others Gerrie Pretorius and Die Campbells
IN 100 000 JAREN – composed by DIETER BOHLEN and sung by various German singers like Oliver Lucas. David Fourie did an Afrikaans cover
EEN STER – one of the biggest German language hits in the last 10 years for especially NIK P & DJ OTZI. In South Africa people such a Ray Dylan, Arno Jordaan and Jennifer Zamudio covered it
And now he has just covered JE T’ADORE, the 2006 Belgium Eurovision entry of Kate Ryan. Christoff’s version is in Flemish.
