    Official video for 'Grow' by Jeangu Macrooy.
    Jeangu on Grow: “Emotions, good and bad, are a universal language. I hope this song makes people feel a little less lonely in their search for happiness. I think that openness and honesty about how we really feel will ultimately bring us closer. I believe in the power of music to bring people together. It’s the reason I do what I do."

    LYRICS:
    When I’m sad
    I am unreasonable
    Just like a little kid
    Mad at the world
    When I’m alone
    I am defenceless
    Just like the boy I was
    Afraid in the dark
    Don’t take it personally
    Don’t be offended
    Don’t mind my mood
    Changing like the weather
    God knows I try to hold it all together
    Oh, I’m getting older
    And it ain’t what I thought it would be
    Wide awake
    The planet spins around
    A little too fast for me
    Most of the time
    Lost control
    My thoughts are flickering
    Just like satellites
    Lost in the sky
    Don’t take it personally
    Don’t be offended
    Don’t mind my mood
    Changing like the weather
    God knows I try to hold it all together
    I’m getting older
    And it ain’t what I thought it would be
    One day I’ll find
    Some peace of mind
    And then I’ll stop being afraid
    I won’t make it through the night
    The more I learn
    The less I know
    Through every high and every low
    Oh, I grow
    The more I learn
    The less I know
    Through every high and every low
    Oh, I grow

    i'm not gonna lie, at first i didnt care about this song at all. it was really middle of the road for me, until one day the lyric ''the more i learn, the less i know'' got stuck in my head while i was having an awful day... so i took a thorough listen and it's grown massively on me ever since. i began connecting to this song, understanding it in a fully emotional level. thanks for this entry 🇳🇱, it's now in my top 5; along with Switzerland (my personal winner), Malta, Latvia and Australia. best of luck from Spain 💛

      If I remember correctly it was mentioned somewhere that this year they will do something to honor the songs of 2020 that were supposed to be used for the cancelled contest, but I can't remember where I heard or read this anymore. In any case, this is the first time a Eurovision contest was cancelled of course, and I actually think it's really interesting that the majority of the 2020 artists will participate this year again with a new song.

    This song could be the song of the night. It's very touching because it's so honest, so naive, so simple and just so cute. I honestly shed a tear. He needs to be lucky in the allocation draw and get a position at the end of the second half. And he needs that Salvador Sobral staging. Just give him a mike and that sort of a tiny stage which enables him to create intimacy with the audience, and he'll make it to the top spot!

    OMG I 'm not sure why but this suddenly got me in tears and then i just couldn't stop.
    People complain about too many ballads. Whoever just counts this as yet an other ballad is nowhere close to understand it.
    This is not a ballad. It's barely even a song. This is a whisper. A screaming whisper. It is almost ignoring any established structure, any effort to amuse or impress, it seeks no authority , no prestige, it cares about no competition. It just rises from the most unexpected depths of a soul, unfolds a velvet pair of wings, flies to the skies, whispers straight into the ears of the gods and smoothly comes back to caress the bleeding chin of a lost innocence, feeding it back to itself so it can grow. And it grows. God, it grows.
    I think I 'm in love. I definitely found my winner.

    I want to say something about the abrupt ending. I first didn't get it like so many people, but now I'm starting to realize that considering the song is about accepting the heights and lows of life; it's striking that people react to the song the way they react to life. We don't want the dull everyday moments of life, cuz that's boring. We want the climax, the joy, the fun to start as soon as possible. We don't want to wait for it, and we want that to last for as long as possible. But like in life; euphoria does not last long and it can end abruptly by an unexpected turn in life, like: a loss, disease, accident. And you are thrown back to yourself again and you have to come to terms with it. But if you surrender you...… grow.

    The Netherlands has two years in a row: a beautiful, emotional, touching & powerful song! 😌❤️ Honestly I cried when I first heard Grow. All the emotions of my past memories just came out with tears. And I just couldn't stop crying... 😌 Now I'm listening to this song, for who knows, how umpteenth time this is, with a huge smile on my face! ☺️ Dutch people: You have such a lovely song! Be proud of this! 💕 I wish all the best for The Netherlands again this year! Much love from 🇫🇮 to 🇳🇱! ❤️
    EDIT: OMG! 🥰 Just heard the live version of Grow & it's pure gold, too! A tip for you; listen to the song with headphones! 😤💕
    EDIT 2: Well, due to overwhelming ESC cancellation - I didn't have chance to vote for The Netherlands this year, but Grow & Jeangu has special place in my heart. I will remember this entry! One of my like extremely, absolute favorites alongside with 🇨🇭🇮🇹 this year! 💕 Times are dark, but stay strong people! 💪✨

    It looks like a monotonous report from me. Because at this place last year I was already enthusiastic about Duncan Laurence and praised him to heaven. This year it is Jeangu Macrooy's turn and again it is Bingo. What a beautiful combination of gospel and ... I don't know so quickly. The song takes you completely in a kind of trance for three minutes. Jeangu's voice is warm, lyrics are recognizable, the background choir that comes in is exactly in place and the composition is magical.

    I am used to films with open endings that leave food for thought and discussion. In music this is new to me (fade outs excluded) and this one brings you hope and the desire for more. Once you want to start to sing along, it's over. As if Jeangu asks you to complete the song by yourself. This might be frustrating to some people, not to me. The lyrics are nice, his voice is good, the song structure is of high quality, the ending is just MAGICAL.

    Thank you Jeangu for this wonderful entry!😚

      Unfortunately, they won't win, cause this kind of song won't urge televoters to vote for them. Televoters preffer something crazy, instead of real music

    It is really a powerful song! But you have to listen to it more often at the beginning I thought it was boring but now I really like it! He also has such a beautiful voice you can just hear that it came straight from his heart. The first time I got goosebumps because of his voice so beautiful! So I give you all a tip and listen to this song more often because it will naturally become fun! I hope that the Netherlands does well on stage because if they do they can certainly get very high! And it is a very quiet song and I think that is beautiful because usually there is the ESC quite fast songs but the Netherlands does a quiet song almost every year! Put it on Jeangu !! greetings from poland! I give you 12 points
