[@dzjengis]

It took them 44 years to win 1st again in 2019

[@anothercomment]

Anouk's Birds was a turning point for the Netherlands at the contest. A Beautiful, mesmerising song that I still return to to this day.

[@liloanddaisy2020]

Then there was Duncan Laurence becoming the 5th and most recent Dutch Eurovision winner

[@hayo919]

As a Dutchman I even want to go so far as to say that if Anouk didn't qualify we probably would've left Eurovision. So it was an important moment for Dutch Eurovision history

[@christian0405]

Ding-A-Dong massively underrated!

[@HiThereImLily]

It had a lot of commercial success afterwards so the public liked it enough.

[@DalleDayul]

Crazy that they went for years with awful entries and not qualifying only to then get top 10 in 2013 and then nearly win in 2014. Such an insane comeback. On another note, I think they had a really strong 2010s. Obviously they won in 2019, but 2014-17 was also a great run of form. Lastly, 2021 was so undeserved. The staging let it down but it was such a wonderful song.

[@meindertbrouwer279]

The Netherlands dropped the national selection after 2012. Anouk said she wanted to represent the Netherlands in 2013, but only if she would be selected internally. And, to be honest, she knows what's good and what's bad. In my opinion, the Dutch Eurovision entry should always be selected by people who know what works and what doesn't, even though also then mistakes can be made (2023). The Dutch people (tja, sorry landgenoten) are not the ones who should choose.

[@Esmee_edit]

It’s because we realised that unproffesional artist are not the right choose so then we started to put for a long time famous artist on the stage

[@nairym18]

Not 2013-2014 , 2019.is my favorite winner 🤑🤑🤑🤑

[@lexezlao]

​@@meindertbrouwer279 and 2023 is a rare exception of a slip up, regardless of what I think about the songs selected they all minus 2 qualified and this year will definitely qualify as well

[@filipgrmsek]

Netherlands from 2003 - 2013: 2 times Q, other NQ Netherlands since then: 2 times NQ, other Q (+ 2 times podium) Honestly, I'm happy for them

[@vikramleon]

OMG, YES! Imagine that the Dutch speaking countries (Belgium and The Netherlands) will share 10 Q’s in 20 Years each if they both qualify for next year’s Grand Final!

Duncan Laurence shows that underrated countries since the introduction of the semi-finals in 2004 can also win the Eurovision Song Contest!

The Netherlands had a rough 8 years during the late 2000s and early 2010s, didn't they?? Honestly, they deserved to qualify in 2005, 2008 and 2012 in my opinion. I also like their 2007 entry though I think she should've sung the Dutch Version. Unpopular opinion but I really like their 2015 one too, yeah the staging was pretty basic but I still like listening to it. They had a pretty good song this year, but it was kinda killed with its' staging and the singers' vocals, no offense to the artists or the country 🇬🇷♥️🇳🇱

I don’t think that bringing National Songfestival is such a good idea, because with that concept, only Re-Union has managed to qualify to the Grand Final in 2004 for The Netherlands and the rest up until 2012 has all resulted in non-qualifications!

[@im.joeyb.]

@@vikramleon That's because our former broadcasters didn't know what to do and aimed for the wrong criteria. Things are different now. With good songs, we'd get good results. Simple as that.
