Background

[edit]

In 1993, he had a hit with "Free Like A Bird" which peaked at no. 21 in Belgium. He would have a total of six chart hits before striking it again as part of a duo in late 1993.[1] In 1993, he had a hit with Corina as part of the duo Tony Servi & Corina. They recorded "My Love" which originally was a hit for Netherlands based duo Rosy & Andres in 1976.[2] It stayed in the Flemish Top Ten for 10 weeks, peaking at no. 3. In Belgium's national charts it peaked at no. 34.[3] In April of the following year, they had a hit with their song "Mijn Avontuur" which stayed in the Flemish Top 10 for 7 weeks, peaking at no.8.[4]

In mid 2006, after being quiet on the music scene for a period of time, Servi recorded "De oude muzikant" which was a Dutch Eurovision classic from some time back, originally done by Ben Cramer.[5] In June 2012, he was one of the artists to appear at the Schlagerfestival.[6]
