The Netherlands, host country. Like many Eurovision fans, I didn’t have any expectations from the hosts because they usually don’t present with songs for a new victory.
Jeangu Macrooy presents the Dutch with the song Birth Of A New Age.
I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised. The song has a really nice message and I really like that.
Not the type of song I would listen to every day but it has a positive vibe.
I like that the song contains verses in the Sranan Tongo language, which is the mother tongue Jeangu Macrooy, it gives it a specialty.
Another song that has elements of gospel, we need diversity in competition. I didn’t like last year’s song Grow at all, so I’m glad Jeang showed progress.
I believe this song will win over many viewers and I hope the Dutch will not continue the tradition of poor results in host countries.
What result do you predict for the Netherlands?
