Germany is in fact in Europe, next to the Netherlands lol. Try history books, you'll see why we in Europe will never forget that. But as for Joost, this song is an ode tot his parents and a letter to his father. His father passed away when Joost was 12, and his mom passed away when he was 13. The lyrics are in fact pretty serious, a serious message wrapped in happy music, until the end, when he gets serious. I love his song and message, I haven't felt this much connected to a Eurovision song as I have with this one. He stole my heart with it, and I really hope the European viewers will understand the song and also love it like I do.
“Try history books…” 😅🤦🏻♀️ 🙈🙉🙊 Am I the only one who thinks this song is a political statement? Maybe someone realized this before the finals, and they disqualified him.

Exactly. The whole song incorporates elements from happy hardcore, early hardcore and gabber, which originated from the netherlands in the 90s and were hugely influential to all of edm. Amazing to see someone keeping this culture alive and a shame that they disqualified him
The sad fact is that this song got disqualified because of some small thing even though this song was for his parents and how he promised them he would get on Eurovision someday and both parents died after that when he was 12 and 13
It doesn't matter where Joost travels or what he's eating, there will always be the pain of missing his parents. Nobody could help him, not even when he paid them. Children should be happy, enjoy their lives, right? What if you're not happy as a kid? What if you have PTSD and you have to wait 2 years to get mental health? Joost's father died when he was 12 and he found his mother 8 months later on the couch. She passed because of a cardiac arrest. With this song he is taking the step to move on with his life. That's the meaning of the fire. Joost shares his fathers wisdom: people invented borders/ boundaries, so you can invent your own world. Father worked as a volunteer with refugees when he was alive. So the song tells us about the pain of grieving but also contains a hopeful message of Europe being a place of freedom and diversity. We are all human beings. Let's come together. Thank you for your reaction! Greetings from Westland, The Netherlands ❤
This is a song about European Unity and, personally for him, following his dad’s advice and traveling and embracing people from all over Europe. We love you Klein. Europeans are now more united than ever🇪🇺
bro at the end he is talking about how is dad told him that he can and will achieve his dreams and is telling his dad that he made it. It is a very depressing part because he lost both his parents due to cancer when he was 7 years old.
5:02 He lost both of his parents at a very young age, due to illness. His dad once told him "it's a world without borders" and Joost promised his dad he'd be in the Eurovision Song Contest one day. The picture you see burning is of his childhood
His dad died when he was 12 and his mom died when he was 13 and this whole song is a message to his parents and its "europa-pa" because he misses his dad (papa is daddy in dutch)
Joost Klein is a great entertainer, you should watch his live performance at lowlands festival (and maybe react to it). It for sure is worth to watch. That guy can perform and get the crowd moving man, it’s insane!
If you want to hear more 90s gabber/eurodance Dutch music (=from the Netherlands) on which this song was inspired: check out DJ Paul Elstak (he's actually in the video, in the car during the drop, he co-produced), of course 2Unlimited with Get ready for this/Twilight Zone/many more (you'll be saying: whaaaat?? Is this Duuuutch?) . Others from that era: 2 Brothers on the 4th Floor, Twenty4 Seven, T-Spoon, Charly Lownoise & Mental Theo, Party Animals, and the list goes on. Also some German artists who had big hits (Scooter, Marusha). I grew up with this music and still listen and dance to it......and I'm almost 50 🙂. And yes, this song by Joost (pronounced "Yoast") is an absolute banger!!! Can't wait for his performance tomorrow. Oh and by the way....there are loooads of great dance festivals in the Netherlands. a bit of background on Gabber music: ruclips.net/video/0ld64OrTUB8/видео.html&ab_channel=MindprinterOfficial (all genres) ruclips.net/video/DJhSzb7Zw54/видео.html&ab_channel=VICENederland
both his parents died when he was a kid, they died in a 1 year span and his father died due to cancer and his mom due to a heart attack. he was 12-13 at the time so he was taken care of by his siblings
He legit got belgium confused with the netherlands, there's a ton of edm artists from the netherlands, like afrojack, tiesto, armin van buuren, hardwell, nicky romero, and ofc dj paul elstak Also, fun fact, the genres hardcore and gabber were invented in rotterdam, the netherlands
Check out Opgezwolle or Fakkelteitgroep if you want some OG bangers. And if you want more happy hardcore, Dj Paul Elstak (the guy in the car) or Charlie Lownoise and Mental Theo. extra tip for some weird shit: Outerspass (aka Teemong).
some dutch artist working in the EDM scene including some oldies: Afro Jack, Tiësto, Showtech, Armin van Buuren, 2Unlimited, Venga Boys and I am sure I'm forgetting about some big ones. As this genre is not my bread and butter. Largest EDM festival is in Amsterdam, Tomorrow Land in Belgium is amazing as well.

Yes, his geography knowledge is dubious, but blame the American education system instead of the guy. He is obviously enthusiastic about the music and showing genuine interest. Being rude isn't going to foster the desire to learn anything further, so show some kindness instead :)
4:20 the style of dance you were referring to is called hakken its a very common dutch dance that you will most likely see people dance like this when played harcore music or any kind that sounds abit like joost klein also the way you say his name is like toast but the remove the t and replace it with a j wich makes it joast klein and klein like calvin klein

I'm actually very happy to be able to understand every word without needing any translation unlike many other songs I listen to
He lost his parents. First his dad at 12.
1 year later he lost his mom at age 13.
This song is about finding himself.
I could say that Europe have better music than USA but it is a continent with different cultures so it is not simple.
#JUSTICEFORJOOST
For these who dont know what happend:
He lost he,s parents at a young age so he made this song for his parents❤#freejoost
This man failed every subject in school...? Q_Q
bro pls just check out european music, there isn't a single european place with bad music.
You should listen to his song Friesenjung as well if you love the european EDM scene ;)
a great netherland artist is paul elstak, you should really listen to him
0:36 Bro chat said that europapa won Eurovision like blud they got disqualified
u need to listen to paul elstak if u like the end type music where it gets hard called gabber
listen to friesenjung, another song by joost klein and his friends
The story behind it is that both his parents went to heaven at an early age and he makes music to cope with it
Joost lost his dad when he was younger, and he promised his dad he will succeed in life
Is no one gonna talk about how grandpa can lift heavier dumbbells than me?
Who else loves this? (Not begging for likes only do it if u wanna)

The little guy in the MV was him and the old guy was his father
his parents told him before they died to make a song for them and win euro vision
You can listen to "rim tim tagi dim" by Baby Lasagna too, its also a nice banger
