En op escdaily.com staat nu ook een interview waarin hij laat weten dat NL één van zijn favorieten is. Het is muziek waar hij buiten het ESF om ook naar zou luisteren.

Michelle Farrugia: Well I really like this song! It is nice and tight and very well produced. The lead singer has a very appealing voice and the whole band reminds me of INXS and U2 (what a complement!) Apart from that, I think the song just goes where the listener wants it to go and it is not at all over the top or in your face. I think they will do very well in the contest and maybe even win. Let’s just hope the live performance lives up to the video clip. I have to give Never Alone 10 points. I quite honestly wouldn’t change a thing.

Tobias Larsson: Another nice one, but according to my logic it is better to be bad than to be nice in the ESC. Who jumps to their feet to vote like mad for something that is OK? This is, in all fairness, a bit more than OK, with a very pleasant melody line and delivered by a good voice, but it will suffer if the performance is as static as in the national final. If they manage to inject some life into it, this song could be a qualifier on a good day. Hmm, let's give this song 5 points.

Steve Allen: Good pop rock voice. Bit of a James Blunt look visually, classic European meets Bon Jovi rock pop song and not bad but is the chorus big enough? I would like to give this song a total of 7 points.

12 points from Lithuania! It's my favourite song after all. But I more liked it in Dutch. I think that your language is so beautiful that you should let them hear it. But at last now I know what are lyrics about.
Believe me, you will be one of top 5.

ESCToday, plaatst tot aan de eerste liveshow elke dag een artikel over één van de deelnemende landen. Vandaag waren wij aan de beurt. Meeste reacties op de inzending zijn toch wel positief. Heb er een aantal uitgekozen:

quote:

Although I preferred the Dutch version of this song for very personal reasons (I love listening to Dutch ...) this is still the best Dutch ESC entry since 2001 and I certainly hope that 3JS will get a much better result than Michelle got 10 years ago. I am a wee bit afraid that the Romanian and Danish songs might seriously damage this beautiful and straightforward song's (which is miles better than the other 2 imo ...) chances of getting its well deserved place in Saturday's show. If this one doesn't qualify in week semi 2, the Dutch will have every right to complain.

quote:

Netherlands 11 is a long i really enjoy to hear!It's one of my favorites and their best effort since i don't remember when.It deserves to qualify undoubtedly i.m.o.3JS seem like very confident performers so i hope to see Netherlands in the final after so much time!Good luck!

quote:

3JS deserves to qualify without any doubt, I will do my best and support it in the semi, hope the rest of Europe thinks like me!
Best of luck Netherlands

quote:

I like them, he sings great live and the song is one of the better ones this year. It's a 7/10 I think. I preferred it in Dutch, but it works in English too without dropping on my list. I hope they will qualify this year. They might since they are in semi 2, but it could also be too underwhelming/anonymous and drown among the others.

quote:

This song has an instantly catchy chorus that I loved from the beginning.On the other hand it's too "decent" to attract the average televoter but I'm pretty much sure that juries will boost the Netherlands up on the scoreboard.If 3J's can convince televoting as well, then the Netherlands will be in the Final again!
Currently my #13 this year ( #5 in second semi )
Prediction : 5 - 14 in semi 10 - 20 if in final
Good luck !

quote:

I love this song!!! Since the begining I waited for a good song from the Netherlands when they were announced and I was not disappointed!! And I'm really happy that guys will perform in the semifinal 2 so it will be easier to qualify /realistic/. This is my favorite song this year!! And if guys won't make final with this really good song it will mean one thing that in majority euro voters and jurors have no ears and that Netherlands may call this contest biased and leave it!!
This really deserves to make top 10 /as for me to win/ hope jurors will help this year this entry as they did last year with other Benelux country!!
