I give 8 Points, but "I miss you" would get 12 Points. This will be SF2s clear Jurywinner I guess.

Oh yes, what a marvelous good song from the Netherlands! This has all the potential to be breathtaking in Tel Aviv! Really different, very indie (much more indie than the greek song for example) and I like it a lot! :D Good luck Netherlands, and good work picking this delicate piece of a song! xclap

Re: THE NETHERLANDS 2019 - Duncan Laurence

About as shallow as a puddle and about as equally interesting as looking at grass grow. Not a fan at all tbh, in fact I struggle greatly to remember anything from it apart from the Woaahh ohhhhhh sounds. I had 0 expectations since the demos, and while I admit it is MILES better than them it still isn't anything worth the time of day for me. This is the literal definition nowadays for an ESC song to try and do well, and it will probably succeed with that.

Forgattable...dull and disappointing. Almost all of the internals (except for Greece) are passing me by.

5 points.

Re: THE NETHERLANDS 2019 - Duncan Laurence

Yeah, this ain't it. The opening melody actually does promise something, which is certainly a start. But the moment he starts singing is the moment I'm fully done, and the underwritten chorus takes it down a few extra notches. [MENTION=16089]anaraqueen[/MENTION]'s Callum Scott comparison is spot on - the potential of a composition that could've been produced completely differently and sung completely differently and been okay gets completely ripped to shreds by horrific vocal and arrangement choices.

2 points. I'm feeling kind.

Re: THE NETHERLANDS 2019 - Duncan Laurence

After my initial Disappointment about not Choosing IMY, I decide (when the poll is up) to give 12 Points. Well done Neighbours, be prepared of high Points from us.

Better than the demo. It's like a jury song. I like it but I don't know how the televote will respond.

It's quite different from the usual song in the contest, I think it's nice. The staging will bring it up or down.

Re: THE NETHERLANDS 2019 - Duncan Laurence

I love many recent Dutch entries, and thus I usually have high expectations from the Netherlands. But this one is just boring.
