This song is okay, but Anouk is the best! You should really listen to her first 2 albums, they're awesome. I've known her music since I was like 10 years old, and I still love her. Her latest album (Who's your momma) is also terrific. LOVE HER!

P.S.: She's everyhing but just another white blond bitch, respec for her

She's the best (not this song though) and I'm going to see her in august on marktrock(belgium), can't wait for it! Her first 2 albums are phenomenal(Urban solitude, Together Alone) and her latest is very good too. Check her out America !

Dear Mr./Mrs. “Black”,

Dear Mr./Mrs "Black",

My previous comment was solely intended for Dutch readers. The underlying message was that in my humble opinion there’s finally something we as a nation can take pride in, other than our corny windmills, tulips and God knows what. It was not my intention to insult you by writing in my mother language, so please accept my sincere apologies.
Maria says – reply to this

111

You should definitely check out the whole album then, because this is a pretty song, but there's much more where that came from! Listen to Might As Well, that's a great song!

Re: Juan – Juan, this in not an action of pimping a whitie as you call it. Anouk just happens to be Dutch (from the Netherlands that is) and in the Netherlands we just have many blonds (the kind you latinos like to whistle at) and we don't call people from Latin America SPICS…

Omg u US people need to worry about more important things than bashing Anouk. Like that horrible music we get from the states in Europe.. I mean, Jonas Brothers? Do they already have pubic hair?

This is a good song, though not her best.

That's an old song , you fat idiot !!
Robin says – reply to this

133

This is such a beautiful song. It's not commercial like those other songs which you hear on the radio. It's a song that's standing on it's own. It's truly about what she feels and it's true: This song is about the break-up with her husband. It's so incredible how she sings with that right emotion.
Love Anouk. Hope she's gonna take over the U.S. soon.
moniq says – reply to this

Re: capta – Hooker from Holland?

What a comment, guess you can't come up with something more GROWN UP. Guess you have a very, very sad life. Well, it is true: You have such a bad life only because of who YOU are.
Weer zo'n vieze vette amerikaan die denkt dat die the wereld is.
Zielige lui.
Perez: check out the old song: Nobody's wife from Anouk AND ofcourse: Anouk:sacrifice. Old but nice.

Totally in love with her! She's - by far - the best Dutch artist there is! Been to her concert in Belgium and wow, she sings so easily! A real natural; a true performer! She's been around for over a decade here in the Netherlands, but she soon will be on top of the lists around the world!

"If I Go" wordt de vierde single van Anouks nieuwste album Who's Your Momma. Na het springerige "Good God", het rustige "I Don't Wanna Hurt No More" en het soulvolle "Modern World", is nu dus gekozen voor een echte Anouk rocknummer.
Waarschijnlijk zal dit het laatste nummer worden dat van het album wordt geplukt. Eind dit jaar wil Anouk met een 'tussen-album' vol bluesnummers komen, waarna begin 2009 weer een 'echte' cd zal verschijnen.

Anouk - If I Go

Thanks Perez, you've got great taste ! Anouk rules and rocks. Listen to " nobody's wife" or " hail" . She's diverse and can sing very good life. So perez, good for you.

Love from the Netherlands (you ain't much if your not dutch….LOL)
Kayle says – reply to this

163

Too bad she's got such a crappy attitude and has a proverbial chip on her shoulder. Holland is too down to earth for her stuck up attitude. She's good, but not great, there are plenty more like her. But not bad for a single mom of 3 kids, gotta hand her that.

At least she's not screaming and singing out of tune, like she did in 'lost'.

167

I'm from Holland and I know that Anouk's divorce from her husband Remon Stoutijn (Postman) make's her sad (distressed?). The album she make it at a time before this break up.
That's the reason why this (beautiful) song (and other songs of her new album) like she's down and depressing. She wrote it with her heart and soul.
(I'm just a big fan of Anouk! In Holland she's Cool).

Lenne says – reply to this

Good, you don't like it.
That means she can stay in Holland, and doesn't have to waste her time the USA. But spend all here time preforming the Netherland (btw not the country were peter pan comes from or where we say cheiBe)
FYI hooker from holland? Apparently you have nooooo idea what that word means.
Merle says – reply to this

170

Anouk is the best rockchick Europe or the US of A will ever have!
Although I think 'Lost' would have done the job better. US people don't know Anouk and her music as we do unfortunately. If you don't know her songs this could sound depressed, but she sure ain't!
You go girl! and kick some American ass
Matt says – reply to this

To me Anouk is one of the best singers in the world. I've heard a lot of singers the past 45 years but she's really one of the best.
Femke says – reply to this

172

Hooker?? I don't think so, good mom she's got 3 kids. She had a ruff life and that shows in her songs. She's a verry good singer en she takes shit from nobody! Maybay you say it to her face! Verry easy to post this kind of commands, verry low. She has many good songs slow and fast

Probably had a bad day???

Luckaly music is a matter of taste! You go Anouk

A big fan from Holland

And please no command regarding the spelling, you try yo wright something Dutch without flaws!
Mieps says – reply to this

173

Some comments are so stupid. Perez is just saying that he like the song. Accept his taste! And Anouk is a good singer, her voice is strong and pure. Her music and voice are a difficult issue with a easy solution. You like it, or you like it not!

I like her music sometimes. She has good songs, but her voice is sometimes a little bit weird hehe.
Marc says – reply to this

174

It is not redicilous, it is ridiculous. Perez is just Perez, don't start the race thing. And for Anouk, my fellow countryman goes, she was never a hooker, she has lived on the streets for a while. She is authentic and her ex-husband treated her the way he did. I think the song is about her life, that makes it a good ballad in my book. It is authentic. It ain't plastic like a lot of other "music"….
Fresh says – reply to this

I like Anouk's voice like this, sounds very much like Jennifer Rush's voice, but in a very different genre. I like it!

Amanda Bynes Was Involved In ANOTHER Hit-And-Run!

Can someone take this girl's license away, please?

Amanda Bynes will finally be appearing court on June 6th for her April 6th DUI arrest, but apparently, she's may have to return very soon after that, because the actress was involved in ANOTHER hit-and-run only a few short days AFTER the first!
