The biggest
stars in the Netherlands will be taking the stage for their homeland in
Moscow. They've broken every record in their country and are more than
ready to astonish Europe now!
The Toppers, Gordon and René Froger, are true fans of the Eurosong
and have, for many years now, been closely following its development.
Their best memories of this event originate from the time that they were
little boys sitting and watching the contest with their families on cosy
evenings. With pen and notepad on their lap and a bag of crisps close
at hand, they awarded points to each song and then compared these to the
points given by the jury.
With their song Shine The Toppers believe that finally, after all these
years, The Netherlands can break through to the finals. The song is about
the fact that if people have a positive attitude they can solve nearly
every problem.
What began in May 2004 as a one-off event with three successful Dutch
solo artists, has now grown into a very successful tradition. Toppers
in Concert - René Froger, Gordon and Gerard Joling - has broken
each and every record since. Their yearly show is looked forward to byt
thousands of people. More than 850,000 people have enjoyed these shows
in The Amsterdam Arena. During these high energy shows, the audience merge
to become one big happy family. The Toppers are very successful More than
1,500,000 CDs and DVDs sold (all number one positions in the charts) and
fourteen completely sold out shows in the Amsterdam Arena remind us of
this success. |
