According to the Dutch song notes, the title comes from the 1966 film Funeral in Berlin (Michael Caine as spy Harry Palmer). A character says ‘I like weeds’ and Palmer basically replies ‘yeah, easy to grow.’ 🤣 #TeeSet #MichaelCaine #OneHitWondered

Tee-Set did have a big Dutch follow-up to “Ma Belle Amie,” but not in America… Tee-Set's 1970 single "She Likes Weeds" went nowhere in the US. Why? Primarily, because American radio stations/programmers boycotted the single because they thought it was a song about marijuana. #TeeSet #OneHitWondered

Tee-Set’s big moment in the sun (at least in the US) came in 1969 with the release of "Ma Belle Amie." It wasn't just a catchy tune; it was a global phenomenon. Written by Peter Tetteroo & keyboardist Hans van Eijck, the song featured a unique mix of English & French lyrics. #TeeSet #OneHitWondered

Ever heard of Nederbeat? It was the ‘60s Dutch answer to the British Invasion, and one of its brightest stars was a group from Delft, Netherlands… Tee-Set. Formed by frontman Peter Tetteroo, they became local legends before conquering the world. #TeeSet #PeterTetteroo #OneHitWondered

The week ending February 7, 1970, Dutch Nederbeat pop-rockers Tee-Set earned US #OneHitWonder honors when their electric organ-driven soulful single “Ma Belle Amie” entered the US #Billboard #Top40 at #33. The single spent 10 weeks on the chart, peaking at #5. #TeeSet #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

Ma Belle Amie - Tee Set #teeset #theteeset #petertetteroo
From the land of Delft, a city of grace
Came a band that filled the air with a beautiful space
Tee Set, the name that echoed with pride
A sound so pure, it took us all for a ride.
