🇳🇱 Joost Klein explains "Europapa" meaning | Netherlands Eurovision 2024 Interview

[@yourstrulyashley8140]

watching this after he was disqualified is so sad, but he has won my heart

[@va2entina]

❤️

[@vbzwd24]

The song is big because Joost had the guts to open up...share his emotions. The interview feels very genuine, fragile and none-scripted. And that's why Joost has already won...no matter what the final ranking will be in Malmö 🇳🇱❤️

[@Moonchild99.]

What a genuine and creative guy.. if he doesn't win the competition, he has already won our hearts.

[@HellokittyDuoo]

It’s sad he couldn’t play😢

[@therealdevilsangel]

He's the sweetest, open and honest. He deserves EVERYTHING! His songs are so clever, they don't seem like it at first but if you pay attention it's mind-blowing. Really like the upbeat, happy, go-crazy songs with deep meaningful lyrics as a disguise. He really is an ARTIST. Really hope he wins, he deserves it.

[@zxzsczbg]

this guy has everything. charisma, a story and a really fun song with a twist at the end. winner vibes

[@Wiwibloggs]

Totally agree with you ❤️

[@aarondelsink5420]

Oooh, what a sweet interview. Joost answering right from his heart without overthinking what to say ! Hope your song at Eurovision will end up at the top of the list ! 🙂

[@Wiwibloggs]

He’s soooo lovely 😻

[@robbert89rl]

@@Wiwibloggs Yes, and you were in great form, Mr Adams, asking the right and relevant questions, just what viewers want to know.

[@drAgonheart580]

its so Dutch, its brutally gutpunchingly open and the hardstyle is the dutch cherry on top. Its a rollercoaster its the WHOLE themepark. Malmo needs the best insurance cos the roof is coming of that venue when Joost takes the stage.

[@blee1997]

Joost had a similar childhood as I did, lost my biological father even before i was born and we are the same age. I can see and relate what he is going through and I am so happy of the things he is truly doing right now.

[@esc1074]

What an echanting colourfull guy. He seems so hyped, excited and proud to represent his country at Eurovision. Didnt know him but the ending of his entry made me curious and then I found out his background and that the entry is a tribute to his late father. Took me a couple of listenings but its now one of my favourites. In many people' s opinion a joke entry but imo far from it. He has a story to tell and music has obviously been his way to deal with his loss. Again one of my favourites and will definately vote for him. Meanwhile wish him all the luck in the world & a great and fun rollercoast experience at Eurovision. Last but not least nice to see the Netherlands stepping outside their comfortzone this year ❤🎉

Same here, there’s never been a Dutch entry that made me so proud and genuinely proud of Joost and my country and Europa! That I don’t care so much at all about where we finish because he is living it rn to the fullest and the world is just wild about it so . Damn I’m proud af.

[@jozienvanakker532]

Believe it or not, but when I first heard Joost Klein would represent my country at Eurovision, I had no idea who he was. But after I heard and saw his Europapa video I was sooooo enthusiastic that I couldn't stop listening to the song and watching reaction videos here on KZbin. Maybe he doesn't have the best voice, but the song is amazing, personal and also with a universal message. For me he has already won because he will be on stage for Eurovision as he had promised his dad. Thank you for this interview @wiwibloggs 🙏🌈🎧🦄

[@lauravision2791]

I hope he’s aware of how talented he is- creating something so joyous but so emotional at the same time! ❤

Unfortunately The 🇳🇱s didnt qualify last year… but they came back stronger then ever! Getting from 22nd place to 5th place by the bookmakers, going viral, breaking so many records and going from ballads to something very Dutch. That to me is amazing and I hope they will win 🥇

[@John_Weiss]

I *_love_* this song! I keep playing it over and over. It wakes me up, gets me bopping.   I _love_ that he's speaking Dutch, even though I don't understand Dutch. I love that he's so open with his past and his loss. The burning house at the end - when I first saw it, I immediately thought that it was symbolic for the loss he went through. And I love the contrast between the song itself and that sad coda. Goed gedaan, jongen!

[@Eve.Ther.]

You are right about the odds and the fan rankings, but let's be honest, this song is mostly liked in northern Europe. The rest hardly likes it. The views don't mean anything to me personally, it is very logical that this singer has many views. He is very famous throughout Nordic Europe.
