Tonight, the Dutch national final was held. Five acts were competing and a jury of four, together with the people in audience decided that Sieneke will represent the Netherlands at this year's Eurovision Song Contest, to be held in Oslo.
Five acts were singing their own, individual versions of Pierre Kartner's songIk ben verliefd (Shalalie).
The four jury members- radio DJ Daniël Dekker, singer and actress Tatjana Simic, singer George Baker, and three times Eurovision winner Johnny Logan- each had a 20% influence on the outcome, making the jury vote altogether count 80% of the final outcome. The audience vote had the remaining 20% impact.
The complete results are as follows:
- Sieneke – 2 points (1 point from George Baker, 1 point from Daniël Dekker)
Loekz – 2 points (1 point from Tatjana Simic, 1 point from Johnny Logan) - Vinzzent – 1 points (1 point from the audience)
- Marlous – 0 points
Peggy Mays – 0 points
As there was a tie for first place, it was up to Pierre Kartner to choose the winner. He went for Sieneke.
