Review by William Avon

Open Deuren Naar Geluk by Mondo Leone: A Pop Gem That Still Hits Different Alright, let’s talk about Open Deuren Naar Geluk, the 2007 pop album from Dutch artist Mondo Leone. Released under MonDoLaLa Records, this record is like a time capsule of quirky storytelling and raw emotion wrapped up in catchy hooks. It's not perfect—sometimes it feels messy, but hey, so is life. And honestly? That’s what makes it stick. The first track I gotta shout out is “Man Op De Maan.” Man, this song hit me right in the feels. It’s one of those tunes where you’re just vibing at first, maybe tapping your foot or nodding along, but then BAM—it sneaks up on you with its lyrics. The imagery of someone stuck on the moon, literally and metaphorically distant, just struck a chord. Like, haven’t we all felt stranded in our own little worlds sometimes? Plus, there’s something kinda endearing about how simple yet vivid the melody is. You don’t need fireworks when the spark itself is enough, ya know? Another banger that won’t leave my brain is “Je Danst Zoals Je In Bed Bent.” First off, what a title, right? It’s cheeky, bold, and straight-up fun. But beyond the playful vibe, the song has this underlying truth to it. How we move says so much about who we are, doesn’t it? Whether it’s dancing or, well… other activities (wink wink). There’s no big moral here; it’s more like an observation. And isn’t that refreshing? Not everything needs to be deep—it can just exist and make you smile. Now, if I’m being real, some parts of the album feel repetitive. Tracks like “Nou En?” show up multiple times, which might’ve been cool back in 2007 but feels a bit overdone now. Same goes for “Vliegend Tapijt”—I get it, it’s catchy, but three versions? Chill, guys. Still, even these moments add to the chaotic charm of the whole thing. It’s almost like flipping through a scrapbook where some pages are dog-eared because they mattered more. What really stands out though is how collaborative this album feels. Featuring artists like Léon Klaasse, René van Barneveld, and others adds layers to the soundscapes. It’s clear everyone involved poured their hearts into this project. Even the production quirks—the slightly rough edges, the unexpected transitions—they give it personality. This ain’t some polished corporate pop machine grinding out hits; it’s people making music because they love it. So yeah, Open Deuren Naar Geluk isn’t gonna change your life or anything, but it’ll definitely color it for a while. Listening to it feels like hanging out with old friends—you laugh, you cringe a little, and you walk away feeling lighter than before. Funny thing is, as I was writing this, I realized the album came out exactly on April 12, 2007. Weird coincidence? Or maybe it’s proof that happiness finds us when we least expect it—even in the form of a slightly imperfect pop album from the Netherlands. Who would’ve thought?
