Killing the bird is like killing his innocence. A childhood dream was crushed, even before the disqualification. Boundaries were not respected all the time. Joost is so disappointed about the reality of Eurovision. It's like the Matrix, a dream world controlled by authorities. Onion = union (EBU). Corp is the sponsors (Maroccan Oil)? Joost also said he wanted to be like an onion, with a lot of layers to peel and discover what is inside. He's hitting a photographer in the end. That's the press. Love that part 😂😂😂 Especially that the photographer's offering the onion hot air balloon because he and his friends are so wholesome. The UWU text ending that line... so funny 😂

01:02 in the official clip, read the letters he wrote on the wall. 1983 refers to Joost. It also says "dont eat the union." and "days in prison: 1"

The onions have multiple meanings. 1.: When he was a child he pretented to have a cold and then he got sliced onions next to his bed. He ate the onions and then his parent said: "Joost! Don't eat the onion!"😅 2.: Onion--> Union (EBU) 3.: He also said, that his songs has layers, like an onion. And he is the onion...

Thank you for your reaction Love from the Netherlands ❤❤

The guy on the motorcycle is his best friend Stuntje, and the union references are because he loves unions

the 8:40 motorbike reference is to the end of FALLEN ANGELS by Wong Kar-wai

The English text on the end is straigt from “Olly Alexander wrote a song. But Joost wrote a Eurovision song” by Overthinking It on KZread

and now finally the whole world loves Gabber and Happy Hardcore / the only musical subculture originated from The Netherlands and my home town Rotterdam!

Paul : it is not the twitter bird ! The bird is a toy he had as a child. Second: you heard the name Appie’ .. this is the name of one of his best friends: Appie mussa: he is the person who was inside the bird on Eurovision. His other best friend is : Mathijs .. his nickname is Stuntkabouter He was on the keyboard on eurovision. He is also to see on other video’s of Joost : Albino and Wachtmuziek. Ps: the whole talk about that this last song Luchtballon was written to react in Eurov: that is nonsense: this song was performed by him long before

The onion is from a story Joost once told and people just love that story. When he was sick as a child, his parents used to put an onion next to his bed, cause it helps with the cold. But Joost really loved onions so he would end up eating the onion. The next day his parents would say to him: "Joost! Don't eat the onion!!" And now people keep saying: "Don't eat the onion!" So it's just a joke at this point😊 If you look at the hot air balloon in the end shot, it's an onion😁

Subtle lyrics in Dutch. Geef me even, geef me effen. Even and effen means the same: a moment. Give me a moment. But it rimes differently. So nice in poetic sense.

de 2e helft van de video doet me aan de matrix film denken

The butterfly efect

Why do you think he chose to sample the melody from Richard Marx’s 1989 song “Right Here Waiting for You”?

As far as I know, "Right here waiting" is actually based on a long-distance relationship and missing the partner. And in recent years, countless people who have lost loved ones or miss deceased loved ones have posted in the comments under the video of the song ...

Fit for a King with song “End (The Other Side)” please. These guys are amazing but have amazing songs and they even play amazingly even more when they perform on stage. These guys out you might really like them a lot they are metal core. They’re not that bad check them out. I love them!!!!!

1999 stands for a german song:" 99 luchtballon "

The song in fact is from 1999!
