Can I just say this: it's ridiculous to discredit or downvote his song just because he likes Benjamin's song from last year

this is such a preposterous display of joke flying over head that i had to double check to confirm you don't sport a netherlands flag

very rare to see this happen and not be weird patriotism

I have strange feeling that 2014 history will repeat once again.

That performance just wow, performed last and killed them all. I will be very surprised if he doesnt win in May

Out of the big guns tonight he was definitely the winner

He sang well, without a doubt, but still feel nothing watching it or listening to it. Still hold the opinion it's well overrated and a very calculated entry.

 

[Noekie]

He performs it very well. At this point I really can't see any other song challenging The Netherlands for the crown. I can honestly see it winning both the jury and public votes. Not since Euphoria has there been a song that feels like such an obvious crown snatcher. Still not my thing, but I can see clearly why it's so loved. Its different from other entries this year, polished yet comes with this alternative, moody packaging + a handsome singer. It's so formulated though that it's impossible for me to derive anything from the 3 minutes, other than the feeling I could be listening to something else. I don't even actively dislike the entry or anything but I find it so plain, even as far as this typical radio friendly indie-pop kind of stuff usually goes. I want to see more indie and alternative music at Eurovision. Outside of the contest it's my thing.. I just want to see it done in a more organic, less try-hard kind of way in the future. Then again I guess you've got to serve your alt-whatever it is with some kind of anthem-esque quality at Eurovision otherwise you risk being dumped on by the fandom (case in point being Austria).

I'll look forward to seeing The Netherlands host though, if they do indeed win. Amsterdam is so pretty.

To me NED is actually diaspointment on the stage..
Compared to audio version, together with Greece it is the biggest let down.
Belgium sounds better than NED to me…
First changs in my top 10 after this perfromance, ISR goes to my top 10, NED goes out of it..

I can just say...that I am very Proud to be dutch this year, whatever the outcome may be!
And that for a boy that came out off nowhere
