Jeroen van Koningsbrugge in The Surprise (2015)

[dani-dance]

Assigning Just Dance coaches some of the Dutch songs I want in Just Dance

Wanderlust: Automatisch ("Automatic") by FLEMMING. Just incredibly good vibes, fits with his style.

Sara: Dromendans ("Dream Dance") by Vinzzent. First considered this for Wanderlust but I think Sara would also be great for this one! It's a bit goofy but I think she'd really just shine in this one as like, happy and having such a view of the wonder of the Danceverses

Mihaly: Wit Licht ("White Light") by Jeroen van Koningsbrugge. An epic song that I think fits with Mihaly's connection with the flow. Alternatively, because I could not fully decide: Hou Me Vast ("Hold Me") by MEAU

Brezziana: now the problem here is that there's none in the playlist that really fit the music style she usually gets paired with. However, in terms of message: Hoger Harder Verder ("Higher Faster Further") by 3JS.

Jack: a curveball: Oceaan ("Ocean") by Racoon, or Harder Dan Ik Hebben Kan ("More Than I Can Handle") by BLØF.

Specifically a Jack and Wanderlust duet: Pak Maar M'n Hand ("Just Take My Hand") by Nick & Simon. A good song about not having to do everything yourself and sharing your struggles with others so you can overcome them together, featuring such lyrics as "you can't carry the world on your own" and "it's not a problem if you want to prove yourself time after time, but you can't do it alone". And as a bonus, it's a really nice parallel to their gold move in Majesty. This song is so Wanderrose coded to me I might translate the full lyrics at some point.

Cygnus: Ladada (Mon Dernier Mot) by Claude. Tbh just look up a translation of the song. And it works with his dance style too! Could honestly also be used for Jack, but idk I think I like it better for Cygnus.

Rasputin and the Bride: Mannenharten ("Men's Hearts") by BLØF, Nielson. I think it would be a pretty good song that could take place after Sweet But Pyscho and IAMOM.

The coaches from Wet Tennis and Woof: Sterrenstof ("Stardust") by De Jeugd Van Tegenwoordig. Idk I think they should get to vibe to DJVT songs I think they'd have fun with it

Bittersweet song at the end of the current storymode arc (like, when we stop the main arc with the Just Dancers and maybe get a new cast in the next storymode): Treur Niet (Ode Aan Het Leven) ("Don't Grieve (Ode To Life)") by Diggy Dex, JW Roy. I'm not explaining this any further just. If you know the song you know what I mean by this. If not, go listen to it and/or look up the lyrics.

There are more songs than just these in my playlist so def go check it out! :D Also if your favourite character is in this list go listen to your assigned song right now :)

Since @myth-blossom requested it, time for me to ramble about what kind of accent/dialect Diana and 47 would have in a Dutch version of Hitman. Under a cut, to save your dashboards.

Diana

To find an equivalent of Diana's RP in Dutch, I'd look at accents that are considered stereotypically "high-class/rich". For that, you'd look at the Queen, but the last Dutch queen, Beatrix, spoke with a slight German accent because she had a German father. Not a great choice for Diana.

The next option would be a Gooisch accent. Het Gooi is the Beverly Hills of the Netherlands; it's where our rich and famous live. Still, their accent feels too...tacky for Diana.

Then it dawned on me: Polygoon, also known as bloemendaalnederlands. Het Polygoonjournaal was a news programme, and from circa 1945 onward, the news reports were voiced by one single man: Phillip Bloemendaal. His very particular accent was also used by actors and tv presenters during that time. It's the Transatlantic accent of the Netherlands, and it would fit her perfectly.

For an idea of what that would sound like: Here is a clip of Mies Bouwman interviewing Wim Sonneveld in the 1960's. They both speak bloemendaalnederlands.

Zevenenveertig (47)

As far as my hard-of-hearing arse can tell, 47 speaks with some sort of general American accent, possibly even Transatlantic. There's a hint of un-placeable-ness to his accent. He needs to sound like he's from around somewhere nearby to wherever he is, and yet like he could be from anywhere.

The issue with Dutch accents is that they're extremely localised. They belong to specific cities or regions, but never half the country...

...except a zachte G, a soft G. That's used by half of the country, and Belgium. So I suggest he'd have just the slightest hint of a southern soft G. And if he'd skip any regional vocabulary or syntax, then no-one would be able to figure out where he's from.

Pink: hard G. Green: soft G.

The best examples I could find without having to scour the entire Internet are this interview with musical actress Willemijn Verkaik or this compilation video of Dutch actor Jeroen van Koningsbrugge on a Belgian tv show.

Um. So. Yeah.

I've spent much too long thinking about this.

[mortimermcmirestinks]

ok now i have a question: does the celebrity need to be internationally famous? bc if not, i'd like you to connect TomSka to Jeroen van Koningsbrugge (a Dutch actor). i'll admit i did try to picked two ppl that i think are probably connectable, but i'm still curious to see how you'll do it :)

well see the thing is that our boy jeroen was in the marvel cinematic universe, a franchise that also includes one Anna Akana, who was in this Paint video with Jacksfilms, who was in this asdfmovie with TomSka (that's 4 but I could probably do shorter)

Jeroen van Koningsbrugge sings PEARL JAM - Enschede, Netherlands | 8 Apr, 2023.

I’m Not Done Yet And I’m Not Sorry

There is a dutch production of The Passion put on in the city of Enschede in 2015 

(They do this every year and it is televised, but this one is my particular favourite. The cast, the songs selected, the stage design, all of it FUCKS severely. They carried this cross through town and then used it as the stage. It’s SO good.)

Judas, in this production, is played by Jeroen van Koningsbrugge and in it he sings a song by Marco Borsato called Wit Licht. He betrays Jesus after he finishes his song.

Now part of what’s so cool about this production is that they make The Passion a musical by using contemporary Dutch songs that have nothing to do with the Bible story, but that kinda sorta fit if you squint. 

(Which is my entire Hockey Poetry Post brand so it WOULD appeal to me)

Now the song is about “the white light” = interpreted as Jesus in this context, but the song begins by (Judas) reminding us that Judas was a human person.

Ik ben een mens van vlees en bloed

een druppel in de oceaan

onherkenbaar in de golven

Een korrel zand in de woestijn 

zo slokt de menigte mij op

raak ik telkens weer bedolven

(Badly translated by Me:

I am a human of flesh and blood, a drop in the ocean, unrecognisable between the waves. A grain of sand in the desert that is how the masses swallow me. I constantly get buried/overwhelmed)

Maar gedragen door het witte licht     

And then goes into:

kom ik los van wie mij maakte    

knijpt de tijd zijn ogen dicht     

Meer dan een schaduw in het witte licht    

open ogen in de zon       

ontdek ik mijn gezicht      

(But carried / raised by the white light, I am released / freed from my creator, time clenches its eyes shut. More than a shadow in the white light, with open eyes in the sun, I discover my face)

Several things are interesting here if you look at it through a Brad/Judas Bergy/Jesus narrative lens:

The insistence on Judas' humanity, esp. when compared to Jesus Christ Superstar where Judas insists Jesus is “just a man”. Bergy is not just a Saint. He is Brad's friend. They're not just Hockey Players, they're human people.

Being raised/lifted/elevated/carried out of obscurity by “The Light” - In this context: Jesus/Bergy who has been such an important part of Brad’s hockey career. Would he have been in Boston still if it hadn’t been for Bergy? Would he have taken a paycut to stay if it wasn’t for Bergy? Would he be allowed to be his Little Rat Self under a different captain? Would the Bruins be as good? Is Patrice Bergeron a necessary ingredient to Brad’s success?

"More than a shadow in the white light." - Pretty self explanatory.

"With open eyes in the sun" - Looking at the sun with eyes wide open WILL hurt you. Interpreting Jesus/Bergy as the sun in this instance is so !!!!!!!!

(I wanted to make a poetry post about Bergeron coming to the end of his career using a part of a poem that goes: 

Night will come / To swallow the sun whole / But there’s something beautiful / Even as my throat tightens / My hands tremble / And my eyes wet / There’s something beautiful / About watching the sun / Even as it sets.

This is the part of the story where Judas recognises who he is, puts on the mask, does what is required to become Judas, and thereby condemns himself to his fate (and Jesus to his death). 

Which is why this association w Bergeron & the sun is especially strong for me. I ultimately decided against making it because I didn’t feel like hurting my own feelings.)

4. The lyric: “Ontdek ik mijn gezicht" I discover my own face when read in tandem w The Gods Show Up: “A tragedy is the story of a human growing into his death mask”

(I discover my fate)

(Note: Judas survives Jesus, but not for long. Patrice’s career is likely to end before Brad’s. This too is an inevitable tragedy that we all knew would happen before we started watching)

Now. 

Getting away from seeing Judas as Evil and instead as Doomed or - if nothing else - Complicated brings us back to Stephen Adly Guirgis´ The Last Days of Judas Iscariot:

Brad as a necessary part of the team? A central and essential piece of the puzzle? Making Bergeron "kick ass"? Required to play his part in allowing for Bergeron to realise his destiny and fulfil his mission (leading the team to a cup)? I vote yes.

And then there is the way in which Patrice Bergeron loves his little rat friend unconditionally:

Jesus is so kind and gentle and it's all so painful. Look away.

(I’m not saying Brad is a dick to Bergeron. Just so that’s explicitly clear. But I love this idea of Marchand wrestling with Bergeron’s divinity)

(and losing)

Also conflict in fiction is sexy.

Now consider Bergeron/Jesus: “You were all heart. You were my heart!”

“All I know is that you broke me unfixable - and that I’m here…” Insanity inducing. 

Patrice/Jesus doesn’t condemn Brad/Judas. In the Stephen Adly Guirgis play especially, it is obvious that Jesus LOVES Judas and that watching him struggle is a difficult thing for him to witness.

(Similar story for comparison: Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein where the “god” hates the creature he’s created)

which circles us back around to the first quote:

I love reading the Brad/Bergeron dynamic through the lens of Judas/Jesus. Nothing makes me feel more !!!!!! than Judas' story except maybe Brad the Rat Marchand.

Also, bringing this to a conclusion:

Adam Phillips, Judas' Gift.

They're beautiful

They're tragic

They're doomed by the narrative 

They're also in love. It's cool. I care about them a normal amount.

So yea. That is the context for these edits: 1, 2, 3, 4.

Brad and Bergy as Judas and Jesus 👀👀

Oh, so we're doing this?

Okay. Buckle up. I have Thoughts. I have Feelings. I Don’t Have a Brain to Mouth Filter.

So first of all, Brad Marchand did all the heavy lifting for me on this one. Him talking about Patrice Bergeron being ABOVE??? JESUS??? HELLO??? Their relationship. Their personalities. The “Saint Patrice” nickname. The dedication. The potential for ANGST

The way Marchand looks at him.

ALL THE TIME.

I didn’t make this up he did this to himself.

(note: I’ve seen other people talk about this as well. Linking this post by @hard4softthings because I like the way they phrased their response, but there’s other people who’ve been talking about this recently I just don’t remember any specific posts.)

Now. Here comes the Narrative:

We’re all on Tumblr so we’ve probably all come across this line from Stephen Adly Guirgis´ The Last Days of Judas Iscariot (2005) that reads like a punch to the fucking gut:

Which is an INCREDIBLE line, but the play itself is actually .. um.. a very different vibe:

Tell me Judas doesn’t read a whole lot like Brad Marchand. I dare you.

The line that precedes this is also pretty Brad/Bergy.

Is it ever anybody else? No. It’s Patrice Bergeron and Brad Marchand and it’s BEEN the two of them together at the centre of all this for years. It’s Jesus and Judas, Bergeron and Marchand, their names go together.

One of my personal favourite Judases is played by Carl Anderson in Jesus Christ Superstar (1973). He really embodies the Tragic Villain I believe Judas to be. In several of his lines/lyrics he talks about the myth/person dichotomy. He loves Jesus of Nazareth, but does not know how to feel about Jesus Christ the Son of God.

Link (SERIOUS TRIGGER WARNING: SUICIDE)

Which becomes especially relevant if you think about Bergeron being Saint Patrice, and Marchand being The Rat.

Borrowing from Frank Bidart’s “Guilty of Dust”:

Except we’re taking the Mythology approach to this: your name is your fate. 

Now the real tragedy of Judas Iscariot is that his name is Judas Iscariot. We are all familiar with the bible story and as a result, the actor playing the part of Judas simply HAS TO betray Jesus. It’s what his entire identity is centred around. If he didn’t, the audience wouldn’t be able to recognise the character as Judas.

(Obligatory Richard Siken:

Snow and Dirty Rain)

That’s just tragic inevitability for you bay-bey.

In Jesus Christ Superstar, Judas’ name is repeated twice right after he betrays Jesus:

“Well done, Judas. Good old Judas” = Good job person who claims to be Judas, you have betrayed Jesus and proved yourself to be Judas. You are now “Good old Judas”, which is to say, the Judas we recognise from the Bible.

A lot of theatre productions play with this idea of inevitability & living up to ones name in interesting ways.

(See: Shakespeare’s Antony & Cleopatra & their repeated failure to live up to their own myths / Troilus & Cressida “This is and is not Cressid” (5.2.175) when Cressida lives up to her name by being unfaithful, which Troilus thinks is unlike the Cressida he knows personally / Iago’s “I am not what I am,” (Othello, 1.1.65) - I am Othello’s loyal friend except that I’m not, I am Iago & will betray Othello, except that I am not yet because I haven’t betrayed him yet & earned the name Iago)

In Terrence McNally´s play Corpus Christ there is a moment where Judas becomes Judas:

The actor stops shuddering, has now been Named Judas and will go on to fulfil the ROLE of Judas. 

In the case of Marchand and Bergeron I am most interested in the ways in which their nicknames become their fate:

Brad the rat - This one’s relatively straight forward. Marchand accepts this role and really works hard to seep living up to it. He has received the Rat label and My God he will act like the rat you think he is.

Saint Patrice - a nickname Bergeron has said he does not particularly like or agree with, but which DOES affect his behaviour and our perception of him. If Bergeron was to take on the role of the rat, that would be weird and uncomfortable to us. We expect Patrice Bergeron to act “like himself”.

Which ties it back to Jesus Christ Superstar: “If you strip away the myth from the man / You will see where we all soon will be”. Carl Anderson’s (brilliant) Judas struggles with the fact that he loves Jesus the man, but not Jesus the myth. In the case of NHL stardom you can look at this in terms of the difference between their on-ice personalities vs. their off ice friendship. Brad loves Patrice The Man, Patrice His Friend, he is less concerned with Patrice The Myth.

I also cast Brad as Dionysus in my little hockey mythologies. There are a few obvious (and slightly silly) reasons for this: Dionysus being the god of the grape harvest (read: wine, drunken revelry), festivity, insanity, (religious ecstasy .. interpret that however you will.. ), but it is partly because Dionysus is the god of theatre. 

(I will circle back around to Brad/Judas I promise)

Dionysus = Theatre = The Rat Persona As Performance

(Note: person/persona/personality, from πρόσωπον or perhaps persōna = mask)

Now this idea of the Persona (rat personality) as that which helps the audience recognise your role in the play (the name of the character you play and the expectations that come with said name) and mask as something used to obscure your actual face is really interesting!! 

It comes back to this question of free will vs. predestination. How much of what Judas does is the Human Person, how much of it is his Name-Fate. How much of The Rat is Brad. How much is just him living up to his reputation/nickname.

Oscar Wilde has a fun little quote about this that’ll complicate it further:

“Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.” 

(The internet informs me this is from The Happy Prince & Other Tales but I will admit I only know it from the end of a Criminal Minds episode)

Michael Kinnucan in my favourite essay ever written about anything ever The Gods Show Up writes:

Brad is the rat, the rat is brad. It’s a person. It’s an act. It’s a mask. We know it’s a mask, but how much of it is a mask. No idea. COMPELLING THOUGH.

This same essay then brings us back to the tragedy of Judas:

Now this is where it gets niche.

(I´ll continue in a second post.)

For us Dutch MCU fans:

So I was checking out the cast list for Spider-Man: Far From Home, and I saw Jeroen van Koningsbrugge on it?! Good for you man, you’re representing us Dutchies in the MCU! Although, judging by the fact that you were listed as “Dutch Hooligan 1”, you’re probably playing an hilariously trashy footbal/soccer fan but I don’t care because Jeroen is both a great dramatic and comedic actor.
