Petejumpers

Since the “poem” i scribbled down today got more attention than anything i ever posted on this normally forsaken blog, i’m going to add some more Sinterklaas content.

There is this album titled Pietenjump. The name of the group responsible is Pietenjumpers. On the album, there are a bunch of classic Sinterklaas songs that are modified to make it available to jump on. “Jumpen” is a form of dancing that was, or still is, very popular in The Netherlands and Belgium.

By the way, so far no one has watched the excellent video of the Vegetable Orchestra. Silly people.
