Netherlands: S10 releases her Eurovision 2022 song "De Diepte"

The song that S10 will be performing at Eurovision 2022 has just been released. Listen to "De Diepte"

Back in December, the Dutch broadcaster AVROTROS announced the singer S10 as the representative of the Netherlands at Eurovision 2022.

The song was promised to be released at a later date and here it is alongside its music video.

Her song "De Diepte" (English: "The Depth") marks the return of the Dutch language into the competition after being absent since 2010 when Sieneke performed "Ik Ben Verliefd (Sha-la-lie)".

S10 (Stien den Hollander) says about "De Diepte":

– This is a tribute to the sadness and memories that you carry with you. Everyone experiences difficult times in their lives. That's something we all have in common and I hope you will feel less alone when you listen to this song.
