Danny de Munk (Amsterdam, 1970) is a Dutch singer, musical artist and actor. Only 12 years old, he was chosen to play the leading part in the film Ciske de Rat (1984). This costume drama, a book adaptation, takes place in the 1930's. Ciske (nickname 'Rat') is a typical Amsterdam, poor, naughty boy, having a hard life with a mother who mistreats and beats him and a father at sea.
The title song 'I'm feeling so goddamn alone'/'Ik voel me zo verdomd alleen' (1984) was written by the famous singer Herman van Veen (known for songs like 'Long lasting love', 'Anne' and 'Radio 3'), who plays the school teacher in the movie. The swearing in the first line, cursing someone with a disease (cholera in this case), is typical for the Dutch language and is considered very rude.
The song was a big number 1 hit. It was in the National Hit Parade Top 40 for fourteen weeks, of which two weeks on number 1. It has been voted into the Top 2000 (traditionally broadcasted on the radio the last week of the year) thirteen times, as high as place 524/2000.

From 1991 onward, Danny de Munk played 12 leading musical roles (Les Misérables, Elisabeth, Titanic, The Lion King and others). In the musical Ciske de Rat (2007-2009) he played Ciske as adult. In 2016-2017 (now 46 years old) he appeared on stage as older Ciske for the last time. Both musicals were also book adaptations: the original books about Ciske de Rat, by Piet Bakker, were a trilogy.
From 2008 onward, he started again recording albums and giving concerts. He chose to sing 'life songs' ('levenslied'), songs about the common people and the problems, misery and hardship of daily life, with an unmistakable Amsterdam accent. Feeling connected with the Amsterdam 'life song' singers (like Johnny Jordaan, André Hazes and Willy Alberti) in the first place, he considers Ciske as a returning theme in his life.
