To be honest I like this song...
Sounds a bit like Alfred J. Kwak :cool:

Re: NEDERLAND - The Netherlands 2010 - Ik ben verliefd, shalalie

I'm surprised of the ammount of negative comments. I thought the people here like retro. And every Eurovision usually has lots of songs that represent an age from 20 years ago, so this one is quite ESC-like (although it's more from my grandmother's time, like 1950s). Very shlager-like. All these are reasons I'm not really a fan of ESC and why I don't like songs like this.

Having said all that - I actually like that song :) Well, not as much to listen to it in my time on the computer, but it's quite nice and much better than so much of the crap ESC has offered. It has a nice rhythm and a nice melody, so I find it quite pleasant for the ear. Not something I'd give money to vote for, but something that definitely won't make me switch the channel, unlike so many songs before, including in 2009, including half of the finalists.

This song is like 25 years old like Milos said (I was already saying that in real life, 'bout coincidence), or actual even older and wouldn't win back then either. The song is horrific, simply horrific! The 6 new and different versions could better be completely new songs, because in this way we are the top favorite for the last place! (especially now Czechia withdrew ;))

The only thing that does not suck about the demo is the fact that is sung in Dutch. (In my humble oppinion, of course.) I like the Dutch language. :mrgreen:
I don't know how many chances of improving it are there but on the other hand ... If I think of what a miracle Moto Boy has turned Charlote Perrelli's Hero into ... :mrgreen:

I think the problem is that this song is very childish even for 3 years old kids :lol:

This sounds like a theme song of 70s Israeli Lion King cartoon. Hopefully they will do like last year and bring back the pizza box woman for some laughs.

Hmmm now I thought, who would sing it?
I think only extremely desperate singers would take up the challenge.

Re: NEDERLAND - The Netherlands 2010 - Ik ben verliefd, shalalie

There's a rumour that this is all a joke by TROS to link in with their hidden camera show :lol: the fact that what was meant to originally be a semi final on the 31st of January has now changed to be a biography show about the presenter, Yolanthe, has made some people believe this even more. It'd be kinda funny (& a relief) if it was, but let's not get our hopes up yet :lol:

If this turns out to be a joke then it was executed very well! :)
And I would be lying if I wasn't hoping a little that this is true.

Not necessarily the best place if you're looking for accurate news but according to oikotimes.com

According to Dutch news website DutchNews.nl, a group of Eurovision fans in the Netherlands have launched a campaign protesting against the decision of broadcaster TROS to appoint Pierre Kartner to write the country's entry to the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest.

The petition is true, it is confirmed by Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf (always writing about the Eastern Mafia in the Eurovision) and some local newspaper. You can read it in Dutch at http://www.telegraaf.nl/binnenland/5793 ... ied__.html

I hope it is a joke, b/c it's the worst I've ever heard. Well, nearly the worst I've ever heard.

Tomorrow the TROS will announce the new talents and their coaches! Don't expect too much :( There are rumours about edsilia :cool: being one of the coaches, hope she and her team made a something decent :)
I also read on a dutch site that Peggy Mays is one of the talents and this could be true actually, as she took part in the sterren.nl academy...which is, i think, a show by the TROS.

Peggy Mays - De liefde van mijn leven (the love of my life)...this is dutch schlager i guess. She looks good :)
