Anouk's "Birds" were great! I hope it will be something like that.
But I don't expect much...after all,1998 is the last year :nl: was in my top 10
And (so far) i know the contest from 1980 and :nl: was never higher than 6th for me (1996)
(Sorry guys,but it's true)

Oh, that's much much earlier than this year. :mrgreen: Curious about the song. :eek: But it's gonna be hard to top their 2014 entry which is IMO one of the best ESC entries in recent years. :p

She's so lovely, I felt with this song like it stopped the time

I would prefer something slower than uptempo from her

The big day today :D it will be hard to defeat the past 2 years, but maybe she will bring something good that could bring them to the final the 3rd year in a row

I think I'll wait for a clear studio version before I judge it.

Just listened to the song, and I'm not really getting the hype over it so far. It's certainly not bad, but on first and second listen it just sounds like generic radio pop song #1624. Could improve with a new version.

Are we listening to the same song? I find it super repetitive and just a normal bog standard pop song. There is nothing extroidanary about this song at all and if it wins I will eat my own hat. I think it's alright, I'm glad it's nothing like her normal music which is just so boring. I feel kinda let down to be honest though still because its not as good as previous efforts. The Netherlands appears to be the hype country this year...

Edit: also they seemed and tried to force the catchiness onto it with the whole i i i i i iii bit and it just doesn't seem to have worked at all.

I need a few more listens, but I agree in part. It's far too repetitive, and for me there is too much of a country feel about it. I like it, but I don't love it...at least not yet. It is at least is better than the crap they sent this year.

I will need to listen more as well, but on the night the viewers only get the 1 listen. Maybe they will pull it out the bag with the staging?
