The Netherlands THE NETHERLANDS 2014 - The Common Linnets - Calm After The Storm

[Miloutchi]

I know, I am geographer
Country is The Netherlands, province is Holland, nickname is Oranje and language is Dutch! It can't be more complicated

It must be a relief to hear that a lot Dutch people doesn't understand it either. (It gets even more complicated )

 

[bubblingtrue]

I think will definitely finish top3

This song is so much overrated, I don't understand all the fuss about it. Much ado about nothing! ;-) It's nothing special, boring - in Eurovision I want some powerful songs that makes me dance, maybe laugh, feeling the rhythm... this has nothing of it, it's plain boring!

Thank god there's room for everything, 30-sth "danceable" entries now THAT would be boring.

^I agree and also praise for your signature.

That's your opinion, and you have every right to say so...
HOWEVER, I must say for me personally, the 'fuss' is about the great contrast that it had with all the 'standard' eurovision songs that do make you dance/laugh/feel rhythm...

It was pure, intimate, soulful, and it was definitely powerful We just have different definitions of the word powerful

I really hope Ilse and Waylon will reach a top 5 position... Winning? Wouldn't that be loverly? , but let's not get too carried away

You missed saying "in my opinion/meiner Meinung nach", hehehe! You'll have Israel tomorrow so you can dance and feel the rhythm. Jedem sein Geschmack. In Eurovision I like good songs, regardless their style. I think Israel and Greece (dance) are great, but I think the same about Sweden and The Netherlands.

Haha a whovian then? Very nice to meet you

 

[joyster]

I haven't seem that many people with The Netherlands on their top 5 so it is far from cliche but Ey, each to their own.

Well I am dutch so I didn't vote vote it last night, that one I know for sure) It must have been other people don't you think?

 

[SilentDawn]

That I am! Pleased to meet you too!

 

[Sean]

Where were all of you Dutch members before?

 

[SilentDawn]

I hadn't really heard it before :3 Plus I have mostly been lurking :3

 

[Harb]

Where were all of you Dutch members before?

Definitely been an influx of Dutch members since this song got popular

Lurkers No wonder this thread was so small before

 

[SilentDawn]

I'm sorry! I'm still not overly fond of our song, as I'm missing a bit of oomph. Performance was stunning, however, from what I could grasp as I had a a busy eveningshift at work yesterday.

 

[Peetjj]

Yup, same here... Just read the comments in silence since Birds last year... Now I want to join the excitement
