Europapa - Joost Klein Reaction | Netherlands Eurovision 2024 🇳🇱

[@WailordAttack]

This is the side of the Dutch industry people outside the Netherlands never see ahahah can't believe we're getting gabber at eurovision

[@EurovisionwithJudeKennedy]

This is so iconic I'm obsessed

[@heavierthanlight7173]

HAKKKÙHHH!

[@pikosapikos13]

This is truly Netherlands at their best. The Dutch simply KNOW how to have fun.

[@johannesnicolaas]

Thank you for this huge compliment. Efgaristo poli! For me, the greatest fun is going to Greece... so....

[@jo-annxo026]

Joost klein is groot! He dedicated this song to his father who died when he was 12 years old. His dad taught him that the world has no true boundaries. His mother died when he was 13. He is a huge inspiration to young folks. He is such a legend the world needs more people like Joost. He has gone through so many challenges in life, it is a true inspiration to see how he deals with it. Joost klein, droom groot.❤

[@RAENAY]

Wow love your Dutch! Thanks for this reaction

[@pas76]

More Dutch then this is impossible ❤ you should watch the video with the translation on. Love the ending with his parents 😢

[@weetjijwel050]

Not a Eurovision fan here, but: this song is insane. The clip is so well made, the references are insane, and the whole thing makes me SO proud being Dutch. 100% Happy hardcore at Eurovision (who would have thought), letsgoooooo! Joost goat, denk Groot!

[@johannesnicolaas]

Your enthousiasm is really touching. And you recognise the style and era immidiately. Spot on, bro!!

[@jooseemii]

europapa is just a BANGER

[@johjoh8938]

Musical masterpiece

[@viderethevaccinatorfromhol7536]

Hahha jij bent BIG TIME FUN

[@rebelwyc]

This song has many layers. The song name is a contraction of Europe + Papa (= father in Dutch). Further references to these 2 subjects: 1. He was an orphan at a young age. His father taught him that this world is his oyster, without borders. So he travels to many countries to escape the pain of the loss of his parents, but that doesn't work. No escargots, fish 'n chips, paella can make him forget. 2. He used to watch ESC with his parents. And he said that one day he would be on that stage performing. His father encouraged him to live life without limits and to go for it. The small boy with the note pad references to his father encouraging him to write poetry (his father was a writer) and now Joost writes songs and he has made it to the ESC ("you see, dad, I listened to you"). With the burning (of the house, picture, building/mill (his past, growing up in Friesland)) at the end of the video, everything comes full circle. He has made his parents proud and he can accept their passing, his past and move on. Hope this helps.

Hard part is gabber and has a reference to maaskantje

[@TheManInBlueFlames]

This and De Diepte are the kinds of authentic things the Netherlands should be sending each year...NOT Duncan Lawrence or the two last year...this really represents the Dutch I feel!

[@han-oq6bo]

I think Duncan's was authentic in that he had a personal connection to the song

[@FizzPunk]

Yo, Bro!! Gabbers Unite!! Hug from the NLD's

[@aijamberisabel]

This is good. I really like his quirky attitude and vibe and how he just seems like a really sweet and humble dude, I love the lyrics (it talks about his father who he lost when he was 12, and his parents by extension as he lost his mum later on as well) which are dark especially for a song that is so happy, I love its vibes, I love the mix of languages in the songs, the hook is kind of catchy but also a bit annoying, the production is incredible, the ending is a bit of a 180 for me and it is not the best way to end such a happy song, I love his artistry and how it is really him and yeah overall this is a very mixed bag, but I think I am in the like lane more than not because the talent is there but I feel like it could’ve been utilised a bit better in his entry as he was being hyped up so much and this feels like a bit of an anticlimax. This will easily qualify but with the overall vibe of the year it might struggle to gain much traction in the final but all they want is to qualify and this will do it and I do love how it is so left-field for them considering what lane they have been staying in recently and this not being that at all. This is a 7/10 for me but it will surely grow on me over time.

I love your accent in dutch, it's slightly french. JKDG

[@EurovisionwithJudeKennedy]

I've never had the chance to study Dutch before so I just say random stuff and hope for the best 💀🤣

[@cyberleone00]

@@EurovisionwithJudeKennedy you're doing good! are you living here or just learned through the internet? 🚠

[@MartijnPennings]

Your accent really is not bad at all! You sound like you know what you're saying at least

[@EurovisionwithJudeKennedy]

Literally only through watching Wie is de Mol aha

[@cyberleone00]

@@EurovisionwithJudeKennedy that's insane 😂

[@MartijnPennings]

That's not dubstep, that's hardcore house, also called happy hardcore or gabber house. It was a huuuuge thing in the Netherlands in the nineties and one of the biggest hardcore djs of that time, DJ Paul Elstak, is in this video.

[@OlivierSteinier]

its fun...hahaha

[@JL-zw7hi]

I love it

[@verycall2049]

Had me thinking you were dutch xd

[@EurovisionwithJudeKennedy]

Hahahah I wish

[@jens2049]

Really love that on your first listen you talked through half of the song

[@barrett_cj]

Why has today popped off so much ?

[@Olivier-GM]

2 unlimited 30 years later. For me it's "no, no, nonono"

[@peterdejonge4590]

Realy did u see the full song or the bad cutup song :(

[@EurovisionwithJudeKennedy]

I had to cut up the song because the video got blocked in all countries. It's just normal copyright avoidance to cut up the video, or to pause every few seconds
