I hope Joost that one day you will be albe to sing it with the peace and with only tears that would be those of touching. Knowing that your parents wherever they are now are so proud of you and these tousands people in front of you love you and support you ❤
this made me sob, the fact that he has the courage to talk about it is amazing. I don't really like talking about this but when I was 11 I lived with my grandma and grandpa and in June my grandpa passed away because of lung cancer. this really touched me bc it's really relatable and I want to say that it's very hard to go through something like that. You can hear the pain in his voice as he cries. but Joost's parents are looking down on him and I bet they are very proud
This is no joke the saddest video i have ever watched... Im writing this weeks after i first saw it because i get so emotional by this video every time, that i don't wank to watch it many times. The first time i ever watched it i didn't really get the meaning of it... But after i finally got it, i couldn't stop crying for over 3 hours. Even before... i listen a tiny glimpse of it and teared up. You helped me so much during a very difficult time in my life (finals) because every time i felt stressed or like i couldn't do it, i thought of your: Joost Klein, Droom Groot. This really helped me realise that i can do it and i am capable of dreaming big 💙 I feel very grateful that i discovered you even from eurovision, because in the end like you said: Love always wins 💙 Just know that your parents are always watching you proudly and i feel like they are really saying that its better that this happened, because you are just too big for eurovision. At least thats what i want to believe... I love you so much 💙 May we continue laughing at your onion jokes and crying through your music= art. And as always Droom Groot, Thank you 💙💙💙 Ps: Your new music video Luchtballoon is fire🔥 I could talk about all of its deeper meanings, but that would probably take me forever, so yeah LOVE 💙
As a newborn amoeba, I -adorn- adore this video. I will keep re-watching it and re-listening to it until I undergo fission; then there’s gonna be two of us watching, then four etc.. My smol brain is too undeveloped to understand the concept of exponential increase, but I will try to evolve. By 2026 there’s probably gonna be enough of us to fill a small venue. Maybe Nightfish will be there. Their music is very inspirational for our DNA programming. 4:30 Even more salt!😃💣 👉🤓
Found this yesterday. I haven‘t cried this hard for ages. I lost my dad last year after short but heavy illness, within 2 days I had to deal with his upcoming death. I didn‘t feel such a strong pain in my life before. But it must be just a glimpse of the feelings Joost must have felt and still feels. Good job man. Thank you. I send you the biggest hug I could give. You are not alone. 🫶🏼
Lieve Joost, Heel knap dat jij jou verhaal durft te vertellen over zo iets gevoeligs, en ik denk dat heel Nederland en België en nog vele andere landen trots op jou zijn en niemand had jou dit Eurovisie drama gegund. 💙❤️🩹💙❤️🩹💙 love u Joost!!!!!
Why is he fake crying? I mean serious he does this every time at every performance.... that's what it is, a performance. Because after that he just goes on doing what he supposed to do. Eventually everyone knows this are fake years, part of the show.....
I don't think you have any experience with grief? That never really goes away. That remains emotional, especially when it concerns your parents and at such a festival with all that audience. But as an artist you also have to pick yourself up again. You can only judge it when you are grieving yourself.
He lost both his parents on a young age in a short time and is standing in front of so many ppl living his dream but without the 2 most important ppl in his life performing such an emotional song adressing just that. If you still don't understand you're just short-sightedly restarded or plane autistic.
These ladies are individually so talented, but together, completely sublime! Arjen just gathers the absolute best of the best, and in my mind, it starts with Arjen and Joost. Two musical geniuses beyond reproach.
