Joost Klein dedicated this song to his father, who died when he was 12 years old due to cancer. His dad taught him that the world has no actual boundaries. His mother died a year later, when he was 13, due to cardiac arrest. Before his dad passed, Joost was already writing all kinds of stuff and promised one day he was going to go to Eurovision. He has gone through so many challenges in life, and it is a true inspiration to see how he deals with them.
you will never have to make fun of a cowboy. what a creepy figure it is and then they call this music? Well, then my butt is an instrument when I fart and my toilet is an art studio. change my mind
@@JohnDoughtnah, can't change the opinion of someone who has already dug in. Especially when his opinion is complete shit.
@@JohnDoughthe makes a cowboy very cool! It depends how you see your world I guess.
@@annia2960 Yes, he wasn't making fun of cowboys. The reason why everything is cartoonish is because he sees the world through the eyes of a child. Notice how he becomes a cowboy in the video game he is holding when he was little...He was still a child when he lost his parents and he wants to travel to see the world, have fun, and forget all that pain. Joost is very clever actually. He combines many artistic elements with the costumes, the beat, the backgrounds, his mix of 80s and 90s vibes, and the powerful message in the end that applies to everyone regardless of background and culture.
@@JohnDought
You will never make America great again.
Welcome to Europe, boy.
His father gave language lessons to refugees... and then he learned that borders are nothing in reality, for people meeting each other. This he said to joost before dying. Really strong message.
Love the story, love the song. It made me tear up. Definitely points from Croatia. ❤
Winner 2024! 3.1 million vieuws in 1 day.
OMG
he is every where now.
@@reggiexp69 yes all over the place....😂
@@thedonkeyaward yeah i mean like every one is talking about it :)
Make it 3.4 million views, and still counting.
The story (briefly) is: his parents died when he was 12-13. His father always said: the world has no borders. So he said: then I want to be at the Eurovision Song Contest one day. After the death of his parents, he started searching for the meaning of life (and relief of his pain) by traveling, but never actually found it there. He gave people money (psychologists?) to help him, but it didn't work. Until he realized that he still had time and therefore still had options to realize his dreams. After all, the world has no borders right? And so he did. The burning house represents losing but also moving on, in a positive way. Burning your bridges: no longer controlled by pain and sadness, but focused on your dreams. Without limitations/borders.
This song makes me feel ready to live and enjoy the world such a Euro BOP !! Great job 🇳🇱
Check out the "suits" from the "gabbers" they are in country colours like Ukraine, Eritrea etc, all countries in war ❤
OMG... I knew I noticed the blue and yellow trainingsuit of the gabber girl, and wondered wether that's a coincidence.. but the more I watch and read, the more I realise and learn there's zero coincidence in the dozens of details in this great production.
😮🤩🙏🏻
5:12 he does not mean literal borders. In Dutch we say "heeft geen grenzen" which is the same as the sky is the limit in English.
It's both, since you can travel anywhere, the borders are open.
Stole the meaning of this song from another dutchee but:
Eurovision is an emotional affair for Joost. As a child, he watched it together with his parents. "Parents, one day I'm going to be on Eurovision stage" and he made it. Unfortunately, his parents died when he was a child. This song is dedicated to his late father. That's why it's called EUROPAPA. The part in the song “I'm in Germany, but I'm so alone. I'm in Italy, but I still feel the pain, etc.", I feel it's directed at his parents... Joost loved his parents and still does. His lyrics are mostly very deep, but the melody is happy, danceable and the clips of his song are presented in a fun way. Joost himself said that his musical style is diverse. When Joost was asked what song they should listen to in order to understand you. He answered Florida 2009 (it's about his parents) and Wachtmuziek (it's about mental health). I recommend listening to them. You have to translate it, because he sings in Dutch.
Needed this context. Takes the whole song to a deeper level.
Also Stromae Papaoutai, another artist dealing with the loss of his father in a song
This song is such a rollercoaster.
papa = dad in dutch papaoutai = where are you dad in French. His parents died when he was super young, they used to watch Eurovision together and his dad told him everything is possible. And now hes there. so yeah.
I don't need the finals anymore, this is the absolute winner. Period.
Ik zeg 12 points for The Netherlands ❤❤❤
Joost ❤🎉🎉
12 Points to Nederland 🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱🔥🇳🇱🇳🇱🔥🔥🔥♥️
I’m gen X and this was happy hardcore in the 90’s made in the Netherlands….I want to go back
Only the last part of the song is happy hardcore
@@gieldeeben7613 no its not. The end is hardstyle but he beginning is happy hardcore
@@shycurves82 No, he's right. The first part is early Eurodance since it lacks the punchy kick Happy Hardcore provides, and the last part is Happy Hardcore. Hardstyle came a lot later and has very distinct bass and kick sounds.
I was a gabber and also listening to happy hardcore, I used to have a lot happy hardcore CDs with devils as a teenager and i'm to gen x .
its happy hardcore. Dj paul elstak mixed that part. He is sitting in the car. @@shycurves82
Welkom in Europa jonguhhh!🎉😊❤
Yheaaaaa
Ja goed gevonden! Maaskantje!!!
What a masterpiece powerhouse BANGER 🤩
Love ❤this song, its getting better evers day. 12 points for The Netherlands. ❤❤❤
this song he made for his father. Joost lost his father at the age of 12 . and his mother past away a year later.
WINNER EUROVISION 2024 🎉🎉🎉❤🎉❤
The song is dedicated to his father. Papa means father in the Netherlands💔
Papa is in almost every language father haha
Thank you so much
The burning house and picture means he moves on and chooses life and a new vieuw.
He is an artist, he creates, makes people happy and shares his feelings to let them know that we all are one and nobody stands alone and that we can be ourselves in expressing our joy and pain.
Watch his performance at Lowlands online.
You will understand what I mean even if you do not understand our language.
Absolute banger!! 🎉 Winner vibes.
12 points ❤
Haha love youre reaction. ❤ from The Netherlands
Thanks for your reaction from The Netherlands
If you really listen to the lyrics, it is clearly an ode to his parents who passed away when he was a child and talking about him running away from his pain without success. Europapa means 'Euro daddy' of course, but also:
'fortunately I don't need a visa to be with you'
'I've lost everything except time'
'I'm in Germany but I'm so alone' (in German)
'I'm in Italy but it still hurts'
'I'm running from myself, crying for help all day long. I even give money to people but there is no one to help me'
'Turn on the radio, hear Stromae with Papaoutai ( which means Daddy, where are you? in French)
'My father once told me: it is a world without borders. I miss you every day is what I secretly whisper. See, dad, I listened to you'
So basically: wherever he goes, the sadness goes with him. And then that burning house at the end symbolizes the message to oneself of having to let go of that sadness and old memories in order to move on
Love this song, it's a piece of art. Job well done on the review too!
Joost klein droom GROOT! 🇪🇺🇳🇱
Love it! So much layers ❤❤❤
I Cannot enough of this song Europapa. Bookmakers wake up now, now, now or never 12 points the netherlands. not third place but first place now. bookmakers shame on you!
The song is a tribute to his parents who both died at a young age. The lyrics are about living life as an orphan, which Joost is himself. That’s why he says ‘Euro-papa’, ‘being alone in Germany’ and ‘Papaoutai’ (dad where are u?) and ends with this sad ending. His dad told him that there are no boundaries in the world, both in personal achievements and between countries.
The end is a bit sad, but can be seen as a reality check. Happy hardcore is meant to go nutts. Empty the brain and let it all out, go mentaI. hope during this song on Eurovision, the world will forget about all problems and go mad completely (in a good way). When the end of the song comes, its back to normal life again with all the problems and sorrows. The day after we can all go back to work. Hardcore never dies, letsgooooo!
love this song very much its and banger my country netherlands slaying
at 3.45 that is called "gabber" and then from that happy hardcore - it's the only music cult scene ever that was created in the Netherlands (nike air max - australian training suite - short hair or bald or half bald for the woman)
It's also a dedication to his dad who thought him borders are man made and he can have the whole world. When he was little he said to his parents one day he would be on that stage. His mom and dad did past a way years ago. But now he got this chance it's also an ode to his parents and a goodbye, saying it's time to move on although he will forever love them.
Wow, that's deep dude ❤
Impressive deduction of the deeper meaning behind the song from the music and the visuals. You kind of got it without even knowing the details. Well done.
Papa = daddy in Dutch.
Small correction: Joost is pronounced like 'host' but with a J.
Love from the Netherlands ❤❤
This is a masterpiece!!! This is the winner of Eurovision Songcontest 2024, for me. No doubt.
Research: Europapa = Eurodad. 12 points for The Netherlands. An ode to his father who passed away when he was 12 years and his mother who passed away when he was 13 years. His father told him that there are no borders / boundaries, no limits. Go, travel and discover Europe and the world. He promised his father that one day he will be singing at the Eurovision. They used to watch it together when he was a child. Now he made it, because he will be on stage this year.
Everywhere he travelled he carried the pain and grief with him.
The fire simbolise letting go of the pain of no having his parents and the start of a new chapter in his life.
Great track!
A sense of honor to his parents.
Joost is just in seventh grade when his father dies of cancer. Joost was twelve when his father died of cancer. At the time, he was just in the first year of grammar school in Leeuwarden. On his father's deathbed he promised him to become a writer. A year later, his mother also suddenly died. He is just twelve years old.
I am from Holland and consider this the best Dutch entry since Corry Brokken 1957 !
This is an other level❤❤❤❤❤
YO Bro!!
Gabbers Unite.
Good you like it.
Welcome in Europapa
the songs tells you : liv your life and liv for the one you love
His dad died of cancer when Joost whas only 12 years old and 1 year later his mom past also. But his father learnt him that the world has now borders. Thats why he sings Europapa papa in Holland means father. Joost is a incredibelle intelligent man and a great performer. He is a real ambassadeur fot our country. ❤🎉
The text and music/visuals are ambiguous which reflect not only his personal story but also the current affairs in Europe. Certainly with that ending. For a positive peaceful Europe, slava ukraini!
This song talks about a peaceful without war. We are all humans beings and all europeans. 12 points from France to Netherlands
We need peace and more love in this mad world. This song is a club banger what an amazing masterpiece, i'm addicted .12 points from France to Netherlands
We need a positive and peaceful Europe. 12 points from France to Netherlands

Hi mate! Why is there no American song contest between all states there? It could be a blast!!!
There is. Don't know if it was a giant succes though.
Read the lyrics. (English version)
Joost is like Joooohst not just or whatever you said , extent the oooo
Zeus klein is amazing
❤
For reference:
Europa = Europe
Pa = Dad
Papa = Dad/Daddy
Hence sometimes he says "Eu-ro-pa" and sometimes "Europa-pa" and sometimes "Eu-ro pa-pa"
The Eurovision Song Contest will be broadcast live via UA-cam. Just like recently at the Grammys. This year it will be organized in Malmo, Sweden. Because last year Loreen won. There are rumors, although it has also been denied, that ABBA will perform as an interval act. Exactly 50 years after they won in 1974 with 'Waterloo'. The rest is history. ABBA is from Sweden! And let Israel win! Greetings from the Netherlands
It's Joost as in toast, Klein as in line
'Joost'is pronounced like 'toast' or çoast' and 'Klein' as 'fine'' or 'mine' His slogan is Joost Klein (means small) ddroom groot (dream big') Greetings from a proud Dutch girl!
I feel that - regardless of what you think of the style of the song - it is very representative of the feel of Europe. When an American asks me what it's like in Europe, it feels like this song kinda summarises everything they need to know 😂😮
A journalist said yesterday on Dutch radio: "my litte children are singing this song all day, it is making me totally crazy...!!" ( then she laughs).
papa means dad in Dutch so euro papa!!
His name is Joost not Jeust. You pronounce the "oost" like the "ost" in the word ghost.
traveling in europe is not a fabtasy for us, we often travel, also on weekends to another country. thats normal for us. and its all the way a sad song sugar-coated in happy beats from dj Paul Elstak
Papa means daddy
This is early 90's sound, not 2000's at all.
Dutch is a complicated language, perhaps this clarifies a bit:
Europa = Europe, pa = dad, papa = daddy.
It is about an unified Europe, but also a tribute to his dad/daddy Joost lost at a young age. His pa/papa passed on some wise insights…
We got that point...
CROATIA Baby Lasagna Coool❤
Did he song against EU.Nice.❤
Malaysia New Song Before Trending 😊😊😊🎉🎉👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Steady gang - ( 周星翅Chou xing chi )mv
no we learn that we are all human there are no borders. just government do that. read about him! ❤
I'm guessing maybe you don't get (Western) European culture? This song is about a young man (12/13) losing his parents, escaping his emotions by travel throughout Europe living rough.
Douze points!
Its zeusss klein

European anthem it is.
*_Gekoloniseerd_*
The last part is the "House of Europe" burning.
Pronoueced as Joast Klein
Hakkuh
It's about defending Europe. Our father continent. Defending against barbarians from the east.
When Joost talked about 'borders' he means limits. So it hasn't to do anything with country borders. Love❤
No, this is wrong. It is about literal borders. His father told him that borders are just imaginary things that are created by people, so people can change the world by imagining it differently. See also his interview by Arjen Lubach.
I think its both.
this aint winning, listen to croatia (im dutch btw)
Can’t you just listen en talk afterwards?! 😒
Such a boring, done before in the nineties thing....seriously wondering why people are so chuffed about it. We raved on this kind of stuff over 30 years ago...you have got to be kidding me...
it is the mix between a happy song and the hit in the stomach at the end, the song is dedicated to his parents who died , his dad died when he was 12 years old and his mother 1 year later. At first I disliked this song but I can not stop to listen to it because I also lost my dad, though I was an adult when he died. This song speaks to many people who lost somebody and know the story behind the song
UBUNTU 💗
Joost Klein is pronounced as Joast Kline LOL
Dutch is hard to pronounce correctly which is why f.e. Breukelen became Brooklyn.
It is so cute to hear Dutch words being butchered by foreigners LOL
It is not political at all, read what @KopfSchmerz-ww8dm explained to know the backstory.
This is a work of art, there are so many hidden gems in this video this is actually a masterpiece.
I'm Dutch and very proud of Joost!
