Following his experience at Eurovision 2024 in Malmö, Joost has released his follow up to his hit “Europapa”. Joost’s latest single is entitled “Luchtballon”. Alongside the single release, Joost has also released a music video alongside the single.
About “Luchtballon”
“Luchtballon” has a very nostalgic feel, while the dance and club elements are still there within the song like with “Europapa”, the song is somewhat more downbeat and calm. Like with “Europapa” there are elements of Joost singing and rapping in the song. Again like “Europapa” there is a message at the end of the song, this time in English.
