In the aftermath of most storms there is still a bit of life, even if it’s just people rebuilding their houses and cleaning up debris. Unfortunately for the Common Linnets, the acoustic version of their song “Calm After the Storm” is totally devoid of any form of life. There’s no energy, no vigor, and, after listening to the debut on March 12, we seriously wanted to check if the artists still had a pulse.
Thankfully Ilse DeLange and Waylon have now revealed the final version of their Eurovision entry. It has calmed us down and undone much of the horror of the acoustic version. Today’s release shows the song to be more subtle than boring, and the backing makes the singers’ imagined heartache more believable.
It continues the trend of country music at Eurovision 2014—hello Malta, haaaay Switzerland. But this number seems slightly more sophisticated than those two. It takes cues from Crosby, Stills & Nash, Johnny Cash and Waylon Jennings, and feels more organic to Nashville, where it was recorded. Anouk did well with understated last year, so perhaps Ilse and Waylon can have similar success?

quote:Once upon a time, approximately around 500 B.C., there was a girl named Xi Shi, who was considered as the most beautiful girl throughout China. Living in the palace of the king well far from her home, she missed his family so much that one night, she cried a river in front of a crowd. After seeing this, almost all the people in the town commented that Xi Shi looked even more beautiful when she was frowning.
So a very ugly girl, named Dong Shi, hearing this, she thought that she might become beautiful when frowning too, so every day she would have been observing Xi Shi frowning and practice frowning herself like how Xi Shi did. One day she walked down the street, frowning to the people in Xi Shi's style, thinking that people might say she looked better than before, however, almost all the people in the town commented that she looked even more ugly when she was frowning.
Conclusion: If you're not good at country music and don't really know how to do it in your style, just not try it, I think this one will be out of the Grand Final. 4 points.
quote:Aaahhh, love this a really freaking lot.. Yeap, goes in my top 3 and has my vote in the semi-final at least. Unless an even better song is chosen. But this is exactly my cup of tea along with Finland's and UK's song. I'm not sure how it will actually do in the competition though..
quote:Dull. So dull. It builds to nothing and just petters out like a breeze. Such a shame after last years brilliant entry. This takes my bottom spot. 1 point
De meningen vliegen echt alle kanten opquote:It's my top 1 so far.
I love this song, and I can't stop listening to it... This song it makes me feel better because 'Calm After The Storm' is a treat to listen to. CONGRATULATIONS!!
12 POINTS, of course.

In 2012, The Netherlands sent a girl with bird feathers.
In 2013, The Netherlands participated with a song titled Birds.
In 2014, The Netherlands is represented by a duo named after a species of bird.
I wonder what bird-related thing The Netherlands will come up next year.

Een Maltees:

Een online overzicht van verschillende polls op buitenlandse websites: http://www.eurovisioon.ee/bigpoll2014.php
Even wat reacties op de officiële clip. Laat het vlaggetje maar wapperen
quote:Gorgeous song, gorgeous voices, really hope they manage to make the final.
quote:this song is the kind that to good for eurovision
quote:A beatifull and relaxing song.. ¡Congrats from Spain!
quote:This song is definitely one of the best of this edition. Well done, Netherlands! I really hope that you qualify for the final, though I know that the average European audience is not accostumed to country music.
SUCCES from ITALY!
quote:One of the best songs this year. Probably the best, good luck. Should win actually
quote:Really nice song, relaxing and high quality, Good luck Netherlands!
Greetings from Israel
quote:Lovely song, it will qualify to the final. Too good to be ignored. Netherlands sends well know artists with quality songs. It might be a bit weird for ESC (that kind of music style) but it will shine
quote:This sound more like a US country hit than a song I'd expect to see in Eurovision. It just doesn't fit the atmosphere of the contest to me at all.
Ik bladerde net even door de reacties onder de officiële clip, en inderdaad.. bijna alleen maar positieve reacties 
quote:Hidden gem for me.
quote:This is seriously fantastic.
quote:Something what I can call masterpiece.
quote:3B !
Beautiful song,
Beautiful singers,
Beautiful country of origin
quote:What an amazing song and stunning video!! My favorite this year.
quote:When I close my eyes, this song takes me to an other place. Beautifull!!!
quote:It's a masterpiece!
De grotere polls zetten ons aan de onderkant van de middenmoot. Of 11e bij de halve finale :/
beter een knipoog dan een blauw oog
Maar wanneer er de OGAE stemmen komen kunnen we zien welke plek Nederland krijgt, Anouk kreeg de 6de plek, misschien kunnen we met de ogae dalen maar nog altijd wel in de top 26?
De uitslag van een grote wekelijkse poll is bekend en Nederland is binnengekomen op de 14e plaats: http://www.escunited.com/t11314/
Daarnaast lijkt er het erop alsof veel mensen hun eerdere opinie aanpassen. Nu alle inzendingen bekend zijn en mensen de nummers achter elkaar zetten lijkt Calm after the Storm het opeens een stuk beter te doen:

quote:The more i listen, the more i like it! Its one of my bigger favourites now! Love it!
quote:Vond het initieel een beetje voortkabbelen, maar na een aantal keer luisteren is het echt wel een schitterend liedje.
quote:Maybe this'll be the surprise of the evening. Ilse and waylon really think about how they are going to perform, they say they already have a whole plan. 'm very curious about how it will look like
quote:Pure!!! Honest!!!! Beauty on its own. This is how a song has to be on ESC. Not the show. No drama-queens etc. Can't stop listening to this jewel. My absolute winner this year. Belgium 2nd!!!
quote:Artists who already earned their stripes. So no funny business to become "famous". Just pure quality and the courage to do it differently. Love this song! Great policy from the Dutch.
EscNation heeft z'n pol ook weer open staan, het is een verzameling van polls voor de finale, de halve finales en het totaal aantal stemmen. We staan er niet slecht voor.

Ongeïnteresseerd maar toch aanwezig.
Ik hoop zo dat het liedje het goed gaat doen! Alleen maar om al die azijnpissers (waarvan ik er ook eentje was....) een poep te laten ruiken
Ik noem dat wel slecht. Nederland scoort altijd beroerd tijdens het live event. Als NL maar net het linkerrijtje haalt bij een poll, dan betekent dat over het algemeen ver in het rechterrijtje live. Pas bij top 10 polling hebben we een finalekans.quote:
