The Twelve Inch 194 : Que Tal America (Two Man Sound)

We Belgians grow up with the idea that we live in a tiny, insignificant country. Even one of our early kings, Leopold II, yes, the one who grabbed the Congo and committed horrors best left outside the scope of this newsletter, described his subjects as “des petites gens, petits esprits.” (small people, small minds). When even His Royal Majesty says it out loud, how are we supposed to see ourselves differently? 😁 My mother used to say, “Just act normal, it’s already crazy enough,” and I’m sure every Belgian mother said the same. It’s in the blood.
