Marco Borsato (1966) is the most successful Dutch singer in the Netherlands. In 1990 he won the talent show The Soundmixshow on television. He released three Italian singles (his father is Italian), but they brought no success.
In 1994 he started to sing in Dutch and had a big breakthrough with above song 'Dreams are deceptive'/'Dromen zijn bedrog' (1994, translated from Italian). It had a number 1 position in the Top 40 for 12 weeks in a row. The song is still voted every year into the Top 2000 (traditionally broadcasted on the radio the last week of the year), as high as place 117/2000. His first Dutch album, Marco, won two times a Platinum Album.
Besides translations from mainly Italian songs, he started to work with songwriter, pianist and producer John Ewbank (1968). He wrote most of Borsato's greatest hits, like 'The thruth'/'De Waarheid', 'World without you'/'Wereld zonder jou', 'She'/'Zij', 'The destination'/'De bestemming', 'Inside'/'Binnen' en 'Today red is the colour of love'/'Vandaag is rood'.

Together they won 10 Edison Music Awards, 10 TMF Awards and a Golden Harp. Over 20 hits written by Ewbank (also for other artists) reached the number 1 position in the Top 40.
Marco Borsato is the best scoring Dutch artist in the National Hit Parade Top 40, at number 4 (after Madonna, Rihanna and the Rolling Stones). He is the Dutch singer with most number 1 hits, that is 14 times (right after The Beatles with the record of 16 number 1 hits). And he is also at a number 2 position of hits with the most weeks on number 1 in the Top 40 ('Dreams are deceptive'/'Dromen zijn bedrog' for 12 weeks).
For five years he was coach at the popular tv show The voice of Holland (2011-2016), four times one of his pupils won. Since 1998 Marco Borsato is ambassador for War Child, a non-governmental organisation assisting children in conflict or war situations. He even made a movie about this subject, 'White light'/'Wit licht' (2008).
