It's been confirmed! Anouk will be representing The Netherlands in Eurovision 2013. Woo. The song will follow in February.

 

Let us discuss that (oops or not; *0 replies* as of December 24th)

YAY. They're finally taking it seriously. The noughties Dutch entries are like the UK's except without the big names.

Yay :cheer: I do think she's a bit above it but I'm glad the TROS saw that this was an opportunity they shouldn't let go.

Hopefully the song will be as good as 'Three Days in a Row' (which is my favorite song of hers, actually thought about sending it to BJSC ) :

 

 

Meanwhile Gordon from ''The Toppers - Shine'' (2009?) wants to represent Switzerland with this ''LA the Voices'' band this year. LOL good luck to Switzerland if that's going to happen.

Obviously we'll have to wait and see what the song is like but this surely must see Netherlands into the final at long last. Caro Emerald and Within Temptation aside, they can't do much better than this!

 

I still think it's a travesty Joan Franka failed this year, bloody juries! :angry:

*bloody Native American headdress :P

Great news tbh

 

HGer favourite song of mine is Lost.

 

She'll sing a few songs and then the public decide which song is being sent and knowing us, it'll probably be the one with the least potential :P

Anyways I'm excited to see what she's coming up with

There will be no national final, I heard?

That's true, Anouk didn't want the public to choose the song so the TROS caved and now she can choose it herself. Which is probably for the best anyway.

 

New song taken from her new album, her eurovision song will probably be like this

 

Her album will be out the 17th

She's beautifull

The song will be called 'Birds Falling Down'. According to the producer, Tore Johansson (Suede, Franz Ferdinand, Saint Etienne), it's something that doesn't stand a chance at winning :nocheer:

The song is called "Birds Falling Down". It'll be presented in March in some shape or form... it wasn't written especially for ESC :dance:

 

It's said to be big and epic, advanced music with a lot of chords. Her Swedish producer team (ding, ding, ding) said it's chanceless because it's so advanced. The producers also co-wrote most of the FBOW album (FBOW, 3DIAR & also D&D). I'm like...

 

MY BODY IS READY.

 

:wub:

On my way. Video Shoot Day 2. #Birds

I feel like kissing someone.

(4 videos in 1 week)

Can't wait! Good they say it's no winner. She won't be disappointed then :P

Premiering in 2 weeks according to my twitter

I just heard that my producer Tore thinks our song is too good to win the Eurovision songfestival. Is that even possible?

Have Faith young Skywalker! The force is strong with this one :-)

 

By The way the song is called Birds and not Birds Falling Down.

Have a Magnificent Day!

I... I... I just want it in my life :P

It has been confirmed that 'Birds' will be released on the 11th March!

 

Preview of birds!

Sounds nice, like the Birds Of A Feather theme tune from the acapella :lol:

 

This was apparently in 2011!

 

What she basically says after 2:10 is :

[Radio presenter compares it to Billie Holiday]

''Well that's a big compliment. The melody is kind of '50s but the production will be big, there will be a choir. It will be bombastic, fantastic and it will be kind of soundtrack-y. I don't want to use any drums [on the whole album]''.
