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

[Alberca]

Don't get me wrong, because I love this entry and it would be fantastic it actually won (on Tuesday it was my mother's absolute favourite, who is not a ESC fan at all), but all this fuzz may just bring enormous proceeds to the betting houses. I would not be trusting odds at all.

 

[angry]

Yeah, you never know.. I could be wrong (let's hope!). But I'm still kind of concerned about the politics though. I don't see any other countries besides the UK, Germany, Belgium and Scandinavia giving us high points.

We never get much points from our neighbour Germany. I think even Anouk got 0 points from them.

 

[Musicosity]

Joking aside, I'm glad to see so many people in a recently unsuccessful Eurovision country take such an interest. Hopefully Portugal will have an uberhyped entry next.

Oh yes, they are long overdue. 47 contests and no win. Praise them for their patience and their loyalty!

@angry: Don't remind me! :?

Well.. we didn't qualify in the last ten years except for Anouk's Birds.. maybe this time it will be different, however it is quite strange that we didn't get a single point from them last year.

I don't think we will win, but it would be nice if we did. Still, it'll be very nice to see the bloodbath. I love it when things can go many ways. Keeps everyone on their toes and makes it that the more interesting to watch.

Yes I agree. The Netherlands is enjoying the best presented and sounding song post SF. I don't think it will win. But a top 5 would not surprise me at all.

If someone told me in 2012 we'd be discussing the Netherlands winning with a country song I'd have been pissing myself with laughter

I think every single inhabitant of the country would..

 

[LionH3art]

Well, that's a bit optimistic now don't you think?

Not really, not that sure about Finland though.

 

[LionH3art]

It would be nice of Armenia to reward us finally with some high points as we always save their backs. & I KNOW THEY WILL THIS SATURDAY

 

[greece]

Oh my god suddenly we are full from Dutch

 

[tsegaye]

It actually feels like Netherlands will be the juries' favourite on saturday (or friday)... And maybe top 10 of the televoting

The forum has been plagued by the Dutch

you watch - if The Netherlands flop and don't do spectacular in the final they will all fall back into the woodwork and continue to lurk.

I think the Netherlands will come 4th in Jury voting and 2nd in public voting, placing them 3rd.

I think Sweden will come third with jury and first with public placing them in 2nd place.

I think UK will come first in jury voting and 10th in public voting, placing them fifth

Aww lol I was being sarcastic! I think if it isn't political which I've always fought against when people say it is, we will do very well because it's an amazing song! We will see...
