Joost Klein - Europapa (LIVE) | Netherlands 🇳🇱 | Second Semi-Final | Eurovision 2024 

They disqualified the most Eurovision song to exist

In a complete twist of irony this will probably be the most remembered song of this Eurovision

Does anyone else feel like this song is getting better and better with each listen? 🤔

Imagine bullying the guy with the most wholesome, upbeat song and who looks like the uncle everyone love. Edit: Oh, don't forget that he sang this for his late parents and he definitely enjoyed the whole performance

that "HEY" is the loudest crowd chanting ever at eurovision.

The first person ever to win ESC that didn't even perform in the final. What a legend.

The fact the 2nd most watched live performance of this year is from a semi finalist that didn't even compete in the grand final kinda sums up the crazyness of this years ESC.

This feels like 4 different songs all beautifully coming together - a lovesong to Eurovision and Europe - a touching tribute to his parents - a story of being consumed by grief - a performance packed with references to his influences

Bro this guy is so kind. He accepted eurovision to his concert.

the meaning of this song is literally the eurovision motto "united by music" and they decided to disqualify them

I can't believe they disqualified the Netherlands

I keep coming back to this performance... It's just so much fun

who is here after the disqualification?

He made a song about Europe coming together, but now Europa is falling apart

man, please back in 2025 and have the trophy. Europapas will help you to win.

He maybe didn’t win Eurovision but he won something more important … OUR HEARTS ❤️ LOVE AND GREETINGS FROM GREECE 🇬🇷

He was there. He sang his song. They'll never take that from him.

Only by hearing the crowd, you can tell this song had won the esc

This was absolutely the most addictive the most beautiful song in the eurovision this year

Still can’t believe we were stripped of this performance in the finals… it is so surreal he deserves all the fame he is getting, hopefully he will go a lot further

There is no way the guy who screamed “Europe i love you all!!!!!” Did i gigantic smile and started singing got disqualified

Ironic that "eurovision" disqualified the most european Song ...

that “hey” was the biggest cheer from the crowd i’ve ever heard

This is not a song... this is a whole feeling and this is history.

You know it's a good song if for 90% of the song the audience was louder than the music itself

I dont care who won eurovision, this will ALWAYS be the winner for me!

I don’t care who won the ESC 2024. This guy won MY HEART💙

Real winner of Eurovision 2024

It explains everything: The song that was disqualified from Eurovision received more likes than Eurovision itself.

Who else believes Netherlands was unfairly disqualified ?

I wonder how many televotes this song would’ve gotten.

Don’t cry because he was disqualified smile because he was able to make it to semifinals

it sucks that they disqualified him, you can tell he poured his heart and soul into it.

Sad fact: his dad died when he was 12 and he promised his dad that he will be in Eurovision so this song is about a teen traveling around europe

This song makes me so happy and then the ending so sad. But I’m mostly mad they disqualified him. Thank you for this song ❤

This doesn't represent The Netherlands only, it represents Eurovision in all history

Jury called him "clown". Sure bro, most views, most engaging crowd, they just didn't want him to win.

This guy literally created the most catchy and liked song of the competition,doesn’t matter if he get disqualified everyone knows his the real winner.

i can't believe someone thought it was a good idea to record someone after such an emotional performance AND this person was shooked that he reacted the way he did. all he wanted to do is spread love, happiness and show respect and love to his parents whom he lost.. his inner child was hurt. and i also feel wronged by the EBU.

He is the most European guy ever, and he wasn’t see in the finals of Eurovision, outrageous

Isn’t it just kind of silly how they disqualified a song that can be the main theme for the entire Eurovision itself?

HE LOOKED SO HAPPY. Like he was the only one looking genuinely happy while performing. The song was such a mood and everything Eurovision is about !! AND THEN THEY DISQUALIFIED HIM. WHAT

He may not have won Eurovision but he won our hearts Some win and other's become legends

I love that he doesn't look like he's trying to win, he's just genuinely there enjoying himself

we all know he actually won, shame on eurovision for disqualifying someone who dedicated this to his parents and worked so hard for it he looks so happy to even just be there

Disqualifying this song is the biggest crime in Eurovision history. This is the most Europe song that Europe’s in Europe Edit 1: Thank you so much for 3.5k likes

I actually cried when I read From:me To: my parents

English lyrics: Europe, let’s come together (Euro-pa-pa, Euro-pa-pa) It’s now or never I love you all (Euro-pa-pa, Euro-pa-pa) Welcome to Europe Stay here until I die Euro-pa-pa, Euro-pa-pa Welcome to Europe Stay here until I die Euro-pa-pa, Euro-pa-pa Visit my friends in France Or take a long walk to Vienna I want to leave the Netherlands But my passport is gone Fortunately don’t need a visa to be with you So take the bus to Poland or the train to Berlin I have no money for Paris so use my imagination Do you have a euro please? Say “merci” and “please” I lost everything except time So am travelling every day for the world is mine Welcome to Europe Stay here until I die Euro-pa-pa, Euro-pa-pa Welcome to Europe Stay here until I die Euro-pa-pa, Euro-pa-pa Euro-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa Euro-pa-pa-pa (hey) Euro-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa Eu-ro-pa (hey) I’m in Germany but I’m so alone I am in Italy but still I feel pain Am running from myself Calling for “help” all day long Yes I even give people money, but there is no one to help me I don’t need es-car-gots, don’t need fish ‘n chips Don’t need paella, no I don’t even really know what that is Turn on the radio, I hear Stromae with “Papaoutai” Won’t stop until they say, “Yes, yes, he does that very well ey!” Welcome to Europe Stay here until I die Euro-pa-pa, Euro-pa-pa Welcome to Europe Stay here until I die Euro-pa-pa, Euro-pa-pa Euro-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa Euro-pa-pa-pa (hey) Euro-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa Eu-ro-pa (hey) Euro-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa… Welcome to Europe, boy (Hey) Eu-ro-pa At the end of the day We are all human beings My father told me once that The world has no borders I miss you every day Is what I whisper to myself You see, dаd I did liѕten to you

It's so ironic that the theme of the Eurovision is "United by Music" and the EBU disqualifies the song that starts with the line "Europe! Let's Come Together! It's Now or Never! I Love You All!"

Disqualification of the Netherlands is the biggest crime in the history of Eurovision 😔

This is one of the most memorable songs and performances in the last years, potential winner (people's winner) and a legend. Disqualifying him made him even more legendary.

Shame on the organisers for not letting him perform. Clear winner.

Isn't this man the real winner of Eurovision 2024?

The most Eurovision song Eurovision has ever Eurovisioned. AND THEY DISQUALIFIED HIM

How come this was disqualified!? This is the most Eurovision song ever and he killed it on stage! 😤😤😤

0:30 you can clearly hear that the crowd is singing with him! That means, the people know this Song. For me, he is the Winner of ESC 2024!

He didn't even know how right he was when he said "All we got is this moment"...

"Europe, let's come together It's now or never I love you all" Suddenly has a WHOLE different meaning now

This song lives in my brain without paying rent. I love it a lot, lt should have been winner. Btw it was big injustice to disqualify him. I condemn the decision of eurovision. Lovely greetings from Turkiye 🇹🇷🇹🇷

This IS My favorite Eurovision Song

Congratulations Netherlands for winning the Eurovision 2024.

In my opinion, it's even more special that he only has 1 performance as he said in his song ''we only have 1 time'' technically foreshadowing his disqualification and making it a more legendary performance to everyone there

“I love you all” and “ i dont care who you are i don’t care where you came from , all we got this moment so lets get together” These messages are very beautiful and very kind. It is obvious that he is a very kind-hearted person. I'm so sorry he was disqualified, I hope always good things happen to him in life.

Not only did he sing, but he also gave a performance. The true winner of Eurovision.

God, I wish I lived in the alternative universe where Joost wins tonight.

Honestly hated today's Eurovision because people KNEW he was the real champion and it felt so unfair without him

The winner of our hearts 🫶🏽💪🏽❤️

i still cant believe you guys disqualified this song he put his heart and soul into that song

Who else feels emotional hearing the song and knowing the disqualification?

It's like the story about the eurovision film, a guy whose whole dream was to win since he was a child, delivered an amazing song and then was disqualified just to be honored by his land and the internet.

The thing that makes me more shocked is that it was the most european song in the eurovison. And the second thing is that HE GOT ALL ACCENTS RIGHT! (I’m italian,idk how to write european)

Atalanta's team listening and singing this song after winning Europa League❤️🔥

Let’s make him the most viewed Eurovision song!

The Eurovision organisers really have shown their true colours 😔

"I miss you is what i whisper everyday" made me tear.

He was having the time of his life 🥺 he kept his promise.

I still can't believe he got disqualified, I rooted for him since the beginning. His song was the most fun and his story warmed my heart. I'm still with you, Joost.

Turns out, he was harrassed by the camerawoman and told her to stop. Twice. Beautiful fairness...

The more I listen to this song, the most I think this song really could’ve won eurovision, damn he really made all dance and sing with him

RESPECT FROM ITALY 🇮🇹🇮🇹❤

I can't believe this country was disqualified

His facial expressions add so much to this performance, what a great skill haha

I didn’t like or notice him at first but damn now he is my winner

Winner of Eurovision 2024

No matter what you say, this guy was the real winner of this ESC. (or Croatia)

This is not a music contest. This is a shame. This man got disqualified being disrespected and reacted correctly.

It’s ridiculous how they disqualified him.. he really is talented, and wanted to make his parents proud. All respects, he should have won!

Самая крутая песня из всех заявленных в конкурсе!!

Bring back Netherlands! They deserve to be in the final. This is not fair.

This years winner was definitely netherlands. Even it is banned it is the winner for me. Thanks dutch friends for this gem 🇳🇱

He would simply have been the winner if he hadn't been disqualified. 12 Points to Netherlands!

its literally bad that they disqualified the best eurovision song to exist.. even that “hey” was the biggest cheer from the crowd i’ve ever heard

I feel so sorry for him. He has the most European message : We are one big family that is growing together. Love from Germany

The most ironic thing being that this is LITERALLY a song about Europe, for the EUROvision Song Contest, but hey, as if THAT would matter in 2024.

He looks so innocent, touching and happy... The disqualification was terrible

This was the real winner

I’m not even European and I feel proud of Europe with this song

This song makes me a proud dutchman. The positive vibe. The entertainment value. The lunacy. The crowd singing along. It could very well have won.

This was 99.95% the winner if u look to past winners lookings and act and this style of music is never seen before in this contest this song was able to bring more younger vieuwer to this tv program

Coming back everyday... anybody else? I just need these 3min of happiness 😊
