Performed by: 3JS
Lyrics by: Jaap Kwakman, Jan Dulles, Jaap de Witte
Composed by: Jaap Kwakman, Jan Dulles, Jaap de Witte
Language: Dutch



Weet je schat we zien het soms een beetje zwart
Soms lijkt de wereld om je heen koud en gemeen
En je strijdt omdat je ouder lijkt
Maar zelfs als de zon voorgoed verdwijnt
Je vecht nooit alleen

Want je hebt de tijd de hemel glijdt
De verbeelding aan je zij
En je weet daar zal ik altijd zijn

Als je mij belooft dat je blijft geloven
Dat een mens krijgt wat hij geeft
In je grootste zorg zit de helft verborgen
Dat meer liefde overleeft

Stil maar je piekert
Want je wilt maar niet gaan
Ga maar sla je vleugels uit al stijgt je verdriet
En je vraagt wie dan de aarde draagt
Kijk naar de zon die boven ons scheen
Je was nooit alleen

Want je hebt de tijd de hemel glijdt
De verbeelding aan je zij
En je weet daar zal ik altijd zijn

Als je mij belooft dat je blijft geloven
Dat een mens krijgt wat hij geeft
In je grootste zorg zit de helft verborgen
Dat meer liefde overleeft

In je grootste zorg zit de helft verborgen
Dat meer liefde overleeft

Re: NEDERLAND - Netherlands 2011

Netherlands...look at your neighbours Germany and Belgium...do what they did and you will be back in the final!

Though I hardly believe it will happen..I have a feeling it will be an another Nationaal "Smoke"festivaal again for the dutch and they will pick wrong again. :(

Re: NEDERLAND - Netherlands 2011

Well as long as it stays to the TROS, we wont have any big names people. Thomas Berge is likely to get a ticket! Though i would like to see Nick&Simon. They are really popular and they have some beautiful songs! Please TROS! :D

Re: NEDERLAND - Netherlands 2011

I'm just looking forward to the day the TROS gives back the ESC rights to another tv station which actually has taste. As long as the TROS is in charge we are not going to make it for atleast another 5 years.

Re: NEDERLAND - Netherlands 2011

Yeah, I agree. It is much better than Sieneke, but nothing special. I think they would flop the same way Sieneke did actually.

Re: NEDERLAND - Netherlands 2011

The Dutch male trio 3JS will represent the Netherlands next year at the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest. While broadcaster TROS will officially confirm the news later today, we were reliably informed that the Dutch band will indeed defend the Dutch flag next year in Germany.

Yesterday morning, popular radio DJ Giel Beelen spread the rumor that 3JS will represent the Netherlands next year at the Eurovision Song Contest, but the broadcaster didn't want to confirm anything - neither did one of the bandmembers. Nevertheless, an internal source within the broadcaster confirmed to us that the rumor turned out to be true.

3JS is a Dutch band from Volendam, which consists of Jan Dulles, Jaap Kwakman and Jaap de Witte. The band was founded in 2002 and its name is based on the first letter of the bandmembers' names. Their debut album in 2007 Watermensen was a great succes and brought them national recognition. In that same year they received a 'Zilveren Harp' - a Dutch music prize that is awarded to emerging talent. Another 2 albums followed: Kamers van m'n hart (2008) and Dromers en dwazen (2010).

Today, Radio DJ Daniel Dekker will officially confirm 3JS' participation in his radio show 'Gouden Uren'. The confirmation is expected to be on around 11.00 am and all further plans for both the 'Nationaal Songfestival' and the Eurovision Song Contest will be revealed as well.

Re: NEDERLAND - Netherlands 2011 - 3JS

sweet, something tells me that TROS was inspired by Belgian success :) We'll see if they have a good song.
I like them, and I don't remember when was the last time when I liked Dutch performers @ ESC :lol: :oops:

Re: NEDERLAND - Netherlands 2011 - 3JS

Is it true? Is it over? :lol: I hope not and it'll be if it is. This is BOREDOOOOM! SIENEKE's light years better. They might do well if people find an appeal similar to Tom Dice (unappealing to me at all) or something. We never know until we see the actual song, though.
