The Netherlands’ S10 will release her long-awaited Eurovision 2022 song on 3 March. The “Adem Je In” hitmaker will hold her world premiere in Amsterdam’s Tuschinski Theatre.
Broadcaster AVROTROS selected S10 – that’s Stien den Hollander – as the country’s contestant. This followed an open call for songs after Rotterdam hosted Eurovision in May 2021. Representing a new generation of Dutch pop music, the North Holland native will be the first performer to sing in Dutch since 2010 when Sieneke crashed out of the semis.
For this special release, the country departs from its usual prime-time television release. Instead, AVROTROS will travel to the Tuschinski Theatre in Amsterdam. Voted as the most-beautiful cinema in the world by Time Out in 2021, this venue celebrated its 100th anniversary in October.
Perhaps Tuschisnki is a hint about the entry too. Will the song and its music video be as cinematic and stylish as the location?

S10 sets song release date for March 3
AVROTROS has announced that S10, whose name is pronounced “Es-Teen”, will present her Eurovision 2022 bid live on NPO Radio 2 as well as on different platforms. Similar to last year, the delegation’s social media accounts will premiere the music video, alongside the official Eurovision YouTube channel.
From the Tuschinki Theatre, NPO Radio 2 presenter Bart Arens will discuss S10’s artistry and her Eurovision journey during his radio prgoramme Aan de Slag between 9:00 and 12:00 CET.
Earlier, AVROTROS announced that S10’s creative team will consist of director Marnix Kaart, creative supervisor Wouter van Ransbeek and light designer Henk Jan van Beek.
Marnix Kaart acted as the principle director for the Eurovision Song Contest in Rotterdam, while Henk Jan van Beek was previously involved with OG3NE’s act in 2017. Wouter van Ransbeek will collaborate with S10 to develop the concept of the performance.
Are you excited about S10’s Eurovision 2022 song? What are your expectations? Let us know in the comments down below!
omg i listened to her antipsychotica song from her first album and WOW, the beat is sick and you could understand the lyrics. that song would’ve been controversial and would be perfect for Eurovision staging.
GO S10, give us a great song
Hyped! I trust the committee since they selected the song. Let’s not forget they did not select last year’s song so it’s not their fault NL flopped lol.
S10 is quite successful on Spotify, millions of streams and 680k+ monthly users in netherlands and belgium.
Please do not disappoint us! I am excited they’re singing in Dutch.
Avrotros would have never chosen Birth Of a New Age if it was sent in as a proposal
It will be so interested to hear her song. Hopefully its one of the strongest songs this year 🙂
The song I am the most hyped for this year. All of her music is insane! At this point, I have listened to her music so much, that I may be biased for her even before the song is released.
Wow, what a beautiful and positive reaction. I’m also looking forward to the song of S10. I really like her sound and music. Her last online stream-concert at Eurosonic Noorderslag was insanely good. I really hope for a real gem; S10 will bring quality to the contest for sure! ?
Haha the last ‘?’ was wrong. I meant: ….for sure!!
There were rumours about Dans Mij Naar Huis being her song (which would be Top 5 in ESC I think), but I think it will end up being a different song.
Woo, I’m excited!! She seems to be a great singer and I hope I’ll like her entry!
exciting, hopefully we’ll once again have a very strong quality entry
I have great expectations. the artist sounds very interesting…
S10 broke through at age 17 by rapping about her experience in a psych ward. Her debut EP ‘Antipsychotica’ is almost too painful to listen to, if you understand the lyrics of course. I’m hoping some of that raw emotion is in her Eurovision entry, although luckily she seems to be in a much better place now, mentally.
omg she has a story! looking forward to her interviews.
Nothing I love more than an awesome song that I can’t sing along to! SHUM by Go_A was a song I loved but I can’t speak a word of Ukrainian. It hope S10 brings it!!
I hope they do not overhype it… I am realny looking forward to hearing a good song in Dutch.
That’s always the risk, the song might not live up to expectations. I generally try not to hype up songs until they are released.
Since Anouk, the Netherlands has taken seriously Eurovision. Language doesn’t matter, even it might be a point in favour among lots of english songs. So, the best for the Netherlands which has respected the festival during the last years
I can’t wait and I have my fingers crossed that it will be a good song. We haven’t heard Dutch in a long time at Eurovision.
I’m fully expecting her song to be pure GOLD
The Netherlands had been quite silent but, given S10’s discography, I expect something great from them! I can’t wait! 😀
So excited, I love her music so much. But also nervous cause I want her to do well so bad
I think The Netherlands deserve to win again, because of this pandemic all the country could not enjoy the full Eurovision experience, with the Eurovillage, the Euroclub and all the kind of stuff they had planned, like the opening ceremony on the bridge and others cool things that couldn’t happen, Rotterdam should get a second chance thet deserve it after the great and flawless show they gave us last year under restrictions, incredible job, so I guess without restrictions it would be again better.
They’ll only deserve to win again if they have the best song. You can’t just cheat another country out of their own chance.
Well firstly it’s not always the best song that wins unfortunately, secondly some of you cheat anothers countries out of their own chance because you want Italy to win 2 years in a row for weird reasons too (Italy obsession you know again and again), I only do the same here, it’s disturbing isn’t it?
It seems like you have an obsession with Italy.
Still not at your level but I try so hard
But I still confirm everything I said about The Netherlands whether it bothers you or not.
Or they just want Italy to win because they like the song? I absolutely love brividi so I wouldn’t mind if italy wins again but I’ld love NL to win as well, or any other country basically if I love the song
btw I would love if the Netherlands would organize again but I’m not sure if everyone would be happy about the huge costs again:)
It’s too soon for the Netherlands when I get and they held the hosting Dorie’s for two years, I think they want a long time span between wins.
Let’s not pretend Italy could fart on stage and be considered a favourite to win ?
Or Italy has just been serving quality the last couple of years?
And great they have been awarded enough for that results wise, what more, we give them the trophy each years or a top 5 placement each years for that? Because they bring always quality (which is subjective), others countries bring quality too and are not awarded the same ….there are 40 others countries that exist
Ah yes cause we only hosted last year’s contest right, so forgettable
I’m kinda intrigued by this entry. In Dutch, about mental health… and some of her tracks are pretty good.
So excited to hear Dutch (my own language as a Belgian) again in Eurovision! This could go both ways but I feel S10 will bring something unique and intruiging. It will stand out in the current bunch of songs that’s for sure
I’m also hoping to hear Dutch or French from my neighbours Belgium soon:)
Or German ofc! that would be a surprise haha
I hope Jeremie gets to sing a French Language song.
