Picture this: It’s a lively Friday night in a small Amsterdam pub when the singer meets an old man at the bar. With only days left to live, this stranger pours out his life story and one urgent lesson: he worked hard, earned loads of money, yet forgot to truly live. Now, looking back on lost love and too many tears, his parting advice rings out like a clarion call—“Leef!” (Live!)
André Hazes Jr. turns that barroom confession into an upbeat anthem that urges us to seize every moment. The chorus hammers home a simple message: live as if today is your last, because tomorrow is never guaranteed and life’s to-do list is never really finished. With its catchy “ga, a, a” refrain, the song transforms regret into energy, inviting you to grab every opportunity, laugh louder, travel farther and love harder—starting right now.
