about

Johannes (John) de Bever (born 7 April 1965 in Berlicum) is a Dutch former professional and futsal player. After ending his playing career, De Bever became a singer. In 1997, De Bever was voted Best Futsal Player of the World. In July 1979, De Bever was discovered as a singer at the age of fourteen by Pierre Kartner during a performance at the Nijmegen Four Days Marches. The song If I marry later, which Kartner wrote for him, reached the tip parade in March 1980. Three more singles and an LP followed. After this, De Bever decided to stop his singing career for the time being and to focus on football. In 2006 De Bever returned from anonymity as a singer, by recording the duet You came with Anny Schilder. He scored 32 Single Top 100 hits. In January 2011, De Bever scored a unique and special double hit listing in the Single Top 100 with the single I'm kidding about what people say and the B-side Kleine liaar, both of which individually earned a listing in the Single Top 100. In 2014, De Bever was one of twenty-four candidates who participated in the third season of the Dutch version of the TV game show Fort Boyard. De Bever is a regular guest at the Mega Pirate Festival, where he has been performing since November 2014. Since 2013, he has also regularly appeared in the football talk show Voetbal Inside on RTL 7. The album That is the love, which he recorded with Marianne Weber in 2015, went over the counter more than 10,000 times. He also made a football hit with Jan Smit.
