its a song for his parents,his dad past away when joost was12,one year later his mom past away. he used to watch eurovision with his parents and dreamed to be on stage one day ,now he made it .the end says everythingabout the whole song.😊
Last night Joost explained on tv that this is a letter to his dad Seen all kinds of reactions what the song is about. In Dutch we say Europa. But it's about his dad, we say papa in Dutch to our dads. It's a letter to his dad, who taught him human made boundaries, but there are no bounderies. In the lyrics you can hear him searching for his father throughout Europe, but he can't find him, he wants help but no one helps him. He referes to Stromea's song Papaoutuai whichs means Dad where are you? When Joost was 12 his 'father died of cancer, tragically his mother passed a way a year later of a heartattack. He was an orphan at 13 years old. Very traumatising for anyone! So figurlarly his house burned down when they passed away. He was raised by his brother and he hopes this song is a goodbye to the pain and grief he still feels for his parents.

In dutch europa means europe. And papa means dad. His dad past away and he always said that europe has no borders and this song is a road through different european countries.
The story is about his father’s that past away when he was 12 and a year later his mom and it’s about the advice his father gave him and to make him proud and that he misses them
In the lyrics, you can hear him say when he talks german. He say Iam in Deutsland but im so lonely. Like he says he mis his father. Then he says in italian. Im in italy But its still hurts referring that his father that coudnt be there. Its a deep song.Srry for my bad Englisch
Joost Klein dedicated this song to his father, who died when he was 12 years old due to cancer. His dad taught him that the world has no actual boundaries. His mother died a year later, when he was 13, due to cardiac arrest. Before his dad passed, Joost was already writing all kinds of stuff and promised one day he was going to go to Eurovision. He has gone through so many challenges in life, and it is a true inspiration to see how he deals with them. michael jackson feels like a thriller song
Joost is known for his happy sounding songs, but with some great emotional lyrisch. He made a song called wachtmuziek, which sounds super catchy and dance music. But he is really singing about the problem you have with reachting out for help when you have mental problems. How youre put on a waiting list, and how you dont get the help you needed

If you really listen to the lyrics, it is clearly an ode to his parents who passed away when he was a child and talking about him running away from his pain without success. Europapa means 'Euro daddy' of course, but also: 'fortunately I don't need a visa to be with you' 'I've lost everything except time' 'I'm in Germany but I'm so alone' (in German) 'I'm in Italy but it still hurts' 'I'm running from myself, crying for help all day long. I even give money to people but there is no one to help me' 'Turn on the radio, hear Stromae with Papaoutai ( which means Daddy, where are you? in French) 'My father once told me: it is a world without borders. I miss you every day is what I secretly whisper. See, dad, I listened to you' So basically: wherever he goes, the sadness goes with him. And then that burning house at the end symbolizes the message to oneself of having to let go of that sadness and old memories in order to move on
As a dutch rocker/metal head who grew up in the 80s/90s I hated gabber with a passion but now I am proud of it as part of our culture, also it goes hard.
The disconnect between rhythm/vibe and lyrics/meaning of the song is real, and typical for his songs. The lyrics could be put on a very sad [almost depressing] ballade, still the vibe is happy (hardcore) with so many references to Europe [Europa in Dutch] and Netherlands. This ode to his father [papa] (who died at young age, followed by his mom a year later) is the upkeep of a promise he made to them to one time perform at ESF.
(Background story of the song) This is what Joost Klein wants to convey with this song: “'Europapa' is a tribute to my father. The song is a letter I wrote to my father, who died when I was a teenager." 'Europapa' is about an orphan who travels throughout Europe (and surrounding areas) to find himself and tell his story. My father gave me a broad view of the world. Boundaries are made by people, but my father told me that you can also set boundaries yourself by thinking out of the box. At first people didn't know me, but I continue to take every opportunity to show myself. When people see my act, the first response should be, “What's going on here?” and then at the end it touches people and makes them think. 'Europapa' initially seems like a very cheerful act, but once behind that lies a deeper message. (Background info from Joost Klein) Joost Klein (26) comes from the province of Fryslân in the Netherlands. Joost, is a Dutch musician, rapper, singer and former CZcamsr.

Dutchie here and have to be honest: SO embarrassing this song... " YEah but you are old" " Yeah you just don't get it!" Embarrassing not because of my age (54 and counting) or that I just don't 'get' it but this belongs in the late 80-ies and perhaps early 90-ies when this was 'all the rage' and we were dancing to this, but it is 2024, we have moved on, it is SO old and done before and not original...
