About Willy Derby

Willy Derby was one of The Netherlands' most popular singers between the two World Wars. His real name was Willem Frederik Christiaan Dieben, born in The Hague on 5 April 1886. He died in the same city on 9 April 1944, during the Nazi occupation of his country. Some of his most famous hits were Het plekje bij den molen (Daar bij dien molen), Twee oogen zoo blauw and several sentimental songs (so-called 'smartlappen') that drew a romantic picture of life in the Dutch East Indies.
